< Yexesqeel 1 >

1 Haddaba sannaddii soddonaad, bisheedii afraad, maalinteedii shanaad, anigoo maxaabiistii Webi Kebaar ag joogtay ku dhex jira ayaa samooyinkii furmeen, oo waxaan arkay wax layga tusay xagga Ilaah.
Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, on the fifth day of the month, that I was in the midst of the captivity by the river of Chobar; and the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God.
2 Boqor Yehooyaakiin maxaabiis ahaantiisii sannaddeedii shanaad bisha maalinteedii shanaad
On the fifth day of the month; this was the fifth year of the captivity of king Joakim.
3 ayaa eraygii Rabbigu dalkii reer Kaldayiin ugu yimid wadaadkii Yexesqeel ina Buusii, isagoo Webi Kebaar ag jooga, oo halkaasay gacantii Rabbigu isagii ku kor saarnayd.
And the word of the Lord came to Jezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans, by the river of Chobar; and the hand of the Lord was upon me.
4 Oo intaan wax fiirinayay waxaa ii muuqday dabayl duufaan ah oo xagga woqooyi ka timid, iyo daruur weyn, iyo dab iyada ku dhex jira, iyo iftiin hareereheeda ka widhwidhaya, oo dhexdeedana waxaa ku jiray wax la moodo sidii dhuxul cadaatay oo dab ka dhex dhalaalaysa.
And I looked, and, behold, a sweeping wind came from the north, and a great cloud on it, and [there was] brightness round about it, and gleaming fire, and in the midst of it as it were the appearance of amber in the midst of the fire, and brightness in it.
5 Oo waxaa dhexdeedii ka soo baxay wax u eg afar xayawaan. Oo muuqashadooduna sidanay ahayd: waxay lahaayeen nin ekaantiis.
And in the midst as it were the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance; the likeness of a man was upon them.
6 Oo midkood kastaaba wuxuu lahaa afar weji, oo midkood kastaaba wuxuu lahaa afar baal.
And each one [had] four faces, and each one [had] four wings.
7 Oo cagahooduna waxay ahaayeen cago toosan, oo baabacada cagahooduna waxay u ekayd weyl baabaceeda, oo waxay u dhalaalayeen sidii naxaas la safeeyey.
And their legs were straight; and their feet were winged, and [there were] sparks, like gleaming brass, and their wings were light.
8 Oo baalashooda hoostoodana waxay ku lahaayeen nin gacmihiis oo kale oo afarta dhinacba uga yaal, oo afartooduba saasay u lahaayeen wejiyadooda iyo baalashoodaba.
And the hand of a man was under their wings on their four sides.
9 Oo baalashooduna midba midka kaluu ku dhegganaa, oo markay socdeenna ma ay leexleexan ee midkood kastaaba hortiisuu qummaati ugu dhaqaaqay.
And the faces of them four turned not when they went; they went everyone straight forward.
10 Oo xagga ekaanta wejiyadooduna waxay wada lahaayeen nin wejigiis, oo afartooduba dhanka midig waxay ku lahaayeen weji libaax, oo afartooduba waxay dhanka bidix ku lahaayeen weji dibi; oo weliba afartoodu waxay lahaayeen weji gorgor.
And the likeness of their faces was the face of a man, and the face of a lion on the right of the four; and the face of a calf on the left of the four; and the face of an eagle to the four.
11 Wejiyadoodu saasay ahaayeen, oo baalashooduna kor bay u kala fidsanaayeen, oo midkood kastaaba laba baal ayuu midka kan kale kula dhegganaa, oo labana waxay ku daboolnaayeen jidhkooda.
And the four had their wings spread out above; each one [had] two joined to one another, and two covered their bodies.
12 Oo midkood kastaaba hortiisuu qummaati ugu dhaqaaqay, oo waxay tageen meel alla meeshuu ruuxu tegayoba, oo markay socdeenna ma ay leexleexan.
And each one went straight forward: wherever the spirit was going they went, and turned not back.
13 Oo xagga ekaanta xayawaanka waxay u ekaayeen dab qaxmaya dhuxulihiis iyo qoryo ololaya. Oo xayawaanka dhexdooduu hor iyo dib iska daba noqnoqonayay, oo dabkuna wuu dhalaal dheeraa, oo waxaa dabka ka soo baxayay hillaac.
And in the midst of the living creatures [there was] an appearance as of burning coals of fire, as an appearance of lamps turning among the living creatures; and the brightness of fire, and out of the fire came forth lightning.
14 Oo xayawaankuna sidii hillaaca biriqdiisa oo kale ayay u ordeen oo u soo noqdeen.
15 Haddaba intii aan xayawaanka fiirinayay waxaan arkay giraangir dhulka korkiisa iyo xayawaanka dhinacooda taal, oo mid kastaaba wuxuu u yiil afarta weji.
And I looked, and, behold, the four [had each] one wheel on the ground near the living creatures.
16 Oo giraangiraha waxay u ekaayeen midabka berullos oo kale, oo afartoodiiba way isu ekaayeen, oo muuqashadoodii iyo farsamadii loo sameeyeyna waxaa la mooday sidii giraangir giraangir kale ku dhex jirta.
And the appearance of the wheels was as the appearance of beryl: and the four had one likeness: and their work was as it were a wheel in a wheel.
17 Oo markay tageenna waxay ku socdeen afartooda dhinac, oo mana ay leexleexan markay socdeen.
They went on their four sides: they turned not as they went;
18 Oo wareegyadooduna aad bay u dheeraayeen, waxayna ahaayeen wax aad iyo aad looga cabsado, oo afartoodaba wareegyadooda waxaa ka buuxay indho miidhan.
neither did their backs [turn]: and they were high: and I beheld them, and the backs of them four were full of eyes round about.
19 Oo markay xayawaanku socdeenba giraangiruhuna way dhinac socdeen, oo xayawaankii markii dhulka kor looga qaadayba giraangirihiina kor baa loo qaaday.
And when the living creatures went, the wheels went by them: and when the living creatures lifted themselves off the earth, the wheels were lifted off.
20 Oo meel alla meeshii ruuxu tegeyba iyaguna way tageen, oo giraangirihiina iyagay la sara keceen, waayo, ruuxii xayawaanku wuxuu ku jiray giraangirihii.
Wherever the cloud happened to be, there was the spirit ready to go: the wheels went and were lifted up with them; because the spirit of life was in the wheels.
21 Markii kuwaasu tageen, kuwanuna way tageen, oo markii kuwaasu istaageenna, kuwanuna way istaageen, oo markii kuwaas dhulka kor looga qaadayna giraangirihiina dhinacoodaa kor loola qaaday, waayo, ruuxii xayawaanku wuxuu ku jiray giraangirihii.
When those went, [the wheels] went; and when those stood, [the wheels] stood; and when those lifted themselves off the earth, they were lifted off with them: for the spirit of life was in the wheels.
22 Xayawaanka madaxoodana waxaa ka korreeyey cir ekaantiisa la moodo baraf aad looga cabsado oo ku dul fidsan.
And the likeness over the heads of the living creatures was as a firmament, as the appearance of crystal, spread out over their wings above.
23 Oo cirka hoostiisa ayaa baalashoodu ku toosnaayeen, oo midba kan kale xaggiisuu u sii jeeday. Oo midkood kastaaba wuxuu lahaa laba baal oo dhinacan uga daboolan iyo laba baal oo jidhkiisa dhinacaas ugu daboolan.
And their wings were spread out under the firmament, reaching one to the other; two [wings] to each, covering their bodies.
24 Oo markay socdeenba waxaan maqlay sanqadhii baalashooda oo la moodo sida biyo badan guuxood, iyo sida Ilaaha Qaadirka ah codkiisii, iyo buuq sanqadhiis la moodo sidii ciidan hugunkiis oo kale. Oo markay istaageenna baalashoodii bay dejiyeen.
And I heard the sound of their wings when they went, as the sound of much water: and when they stood, their wings were let down.
25 Oo cod baa ka yeedhay cirkii madaxooda ka korreeyey, oo markay istaageen baalashooda bay dejiyeen.
And lo! a voice from above the firmament
26 Oo cirkii madaxooda ka korreeyey dushiisana waxaa ka muuqday wax carshi u eg oo ekaantiisa la moodo sidii dhagax safayr ah, oo waxaa wixii carshiga la moodo dushiisa ka muuqday wax nin u eg.
that was over their head, [there was] as the appearance of a sapphire stone, [and] the likeness of a throne upon it: and upon the likeness of the throne was the likeness as an appearance of a man above.
27 Oo qaarkiisa hore wuxuu iila ekaa dhuxul cadaatay oo uu dab ku jiro oo hareerihiisa ku wareegsan, oo qaarkiisa dambena wuxuu iila ekaa sidii dab oo kale, oo hareerihiisana waxaa ku wareegsanaa iftiin dhalaalaya.
And I saw as it were the resemblance of amber from the appearance of the loins and upwards, and from the appearance of the loins and under I saw an appearance of fire, and the brightness thereof round about.
28 Oo ekaantii iftiinku ku wareegsanaana waxay u ekayd qaansoroobaad maalin roobeed daruurta ku taal. Taasu waxay ahayd ekaantii ammaanta Rabbiga. Oo markaan arkay ayaan wejiga u dhacay, oo waxaan maqlay mid hadlaya codkiis.
As the appearance of the bow when it is in the cloud in days of rain, so was the form of brightness round about.
