Ezekiel 1
1 It came to passe in the thirtieth yere in the fourth moneth, and in the fift day of the moneth (as I was among the captiues by the riuer Chebar) that the heauens were opened and I sawe visions of GOD.
Le ƒe blaetɔ̃lia ƒe ɣleti enelia me, le ŋkeke atɔ̃lia gbe, esi menɔ aboyomenɔlawo dome le Kebar Tɔsisi la to la, dziƒowo nu ʋu, eye mekpɔ ŋutega tso Mawu ŋu.
2 In the fift day of the moneth (which was the fift yere of King Ioiachins captiuitie)
Le ɣleti la ƒe ŋkeke atɔ̃lia gbe, esi woɖe aboyo Fia Yehoyatsin la,
3 The word of the Lord came vnto Ezekiel the Priest, the sonne of Buzi, in the lande of the Caldeans, by the riuer Chebar, where the hande of the Lord was vpon him.
Yehowa ƒe gbe va na nunɔla Hezekiel, Buzi ƒe vi, le Kebar Tɔsisi la to, le Babilonianyigba dzi. Yehowa ƒe asi va edzi le afi ma.
4 And I looked, and beholde, a whirlewinde came out of the North, a great cloude and a fire wrapped about it, and a brightnesse was about it, and in the middes thereof, to wit, in the middes of the fire came out as the likenesse of amber.
Melé ŋku ɖe nuwo ŋu, eye mekpɔ ahomya gbɔna tso anyiehe kple lilikpo gã aɖe si le dzo kem, eye keklẽ gã aɖe ƒo xlãe. Dzo la titina ɖi ga si le keklẽm,
5 Also out of the middes therof came the likenesse of foure beastes, and this was their forme: they had the appearance of a man.
eye nu siwo le dzo la me la le abe nu gbagbewo ene. Woƒe dzedzeme le abe amegbetɔ tɔ ene,
6 And euery one had foure faces, and euery one had foure wings.
ke mo ene kple aʋala ene nɔ ɖe sia ɖe si.
7 And their feete were streight feete, and the sole of their feete was like the sole of a calues foote, and they sparkled like the appearance of bright brasse.
Woƒe afɔwo dzɔ; woƒe afɔwo le abe nyivi tɔwo ene, eye wole dzo dam abe ayawagba si ŋu woƒã la ene.
8 And the handes of a man came out from vnder their wings in the foure parts of them, and they foure had their faces, and their wings.
Amegbetɔ ƒe asi nɔ woƒe aʋalawo te le woƒe axa eneawo dzi. Wo ame eneawo katã to mowo kple aʋalawo,
9 They where ioyned by their wings one to another, and when they went forth, they returned not, but euery one went streight forward.
eye woƒe aʋalawo ka wo nɔewo ŋuti. Wo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe yia ŋgɔ tẽe; wometrɔa kɔ ne wole yiyim o.
10 And the similitude of their faces was as the face of a man: and they foure had the face of a lyon on the right side, and they foure had the face of a bullocke on the left side: they foure also had the face of an eagle.
Woƒe mowo dzena ale: amegbetɔ ƒe mo li na wo ame eneawo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe; dzata ƒe mo le ɖusime, nyitsu ƒe mo le miame, eye hɔ̃ ƒe mo li na ɖe sia ɖe.
11 Thus were their faces: but their wings were spred out aboue: two wings of euery one were ioined one to another, and two couered their bodies.
Nenemae woƒe mowo le. Woke woƒe aʋalawo me do ɖe dzi. Ɖe sia ɖe ƒe aʋala eve tɔ wo nɔviwo tɔwo le akpa eveawo dzi, eye ɖe sia ɖe tsyɔ aʋala eve.
12 And euery one went streight forward: they went whither their spirit led them, and they returned not when they went forth.
Wo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe yia ŋgɔ tẽe. Woyia afi sia afi si gbɔgbɔ la yina la, eye wometrɔna yia teƒe bubu aɖeke o.
13 The similitude also of the beasts, and their appearance was like burning coles of fire, and like the appearance of lampes: for the fire ran among the beastes, and the fire gaue a glister, and out of the fire there went lightning.
Nu gbagbeawo ƒe dzedzeme nɔ abe dzoka xɔxɔ alo akakati bibi ene. Dzo la ʋãna yia megbe kple ŋgɔgbe le nu gbagbeawo dome. Dzo la klẽna, eye dzikedzo dona tso eme.
14 And the beastes ranne, and returned like vnto lightning.
Nu gbagbeawo nɔa du dzi, yia megbe, yia ŋgɔgbe abe dzikedzo ene.
15 Nowe as I behelde the beastes, beholde, a wheele appeared vpon the earth by the beastes, hauing foure faces.
Esi melé ŋku ɖe nu gbagbeawo ŋu la, mekpɔ tasiaɖam ƒe afɔ ɖeka le anyigba le nu gbagbe ene siwo si mo le la dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe gbɔ.
16 The facion of the wheeles and their worke was like vnto a chrysolite: and they foure had one forme, and their facion, and their worke was as one wheele in another wheele.
Tasiaɖam ƒe afɔawo ƒe dzedzeme kple ale si wowɔ woe la le ale: woklẽna abe adzagba ene, eye wo ame eneawo katã ɖi wo nɔewo. Ɖe sia ɖe dze abe ɖe wowɔe be wòade nu nɔvia me ene.
17 Whe they went, they went vpon their foure sides, and they returned not when they went.
Ne woɖe zɔ la, woyia teƒe eneawo dometɔ ɖeka si nu gbagbeawo trɔ mo ɖo. Ne nu gbagbeawo le yiyim la, tasiaɖam la ƒe afɔawo metrɔna le wo ŋu o.
18 They had also rings, and height, and were fearefull to beholde, and their rings were full of eyes, round about them foure.
Tasiaɖam ƒe afɔawo dzi ŋɔ, eye ŋkuwo le afɔ eneawo katã ŋu kpe ɖo.
19 And when the beastes went, the wheeles went with them: and when the beasts were lift vp from the earth, the wheeles were lift vp.
Ne nu gbagbeawo ɖe zɔ la, tasiaɖam ƒe afɔ siwo le wo xa la hã ɖea zɔ, eye ne nu gbagbeawo kɔ wo ɖokuiwo dzi tso anyigba la, afɔawo hã kɔa wo ɖokuiwo dzi.
20 Whither the spirit led them, they went, and thither did the spirite of the wheeles leade them, and the wheeles were lifted vp besides them: for the spirit of the beastes was in the wheeles.
Afi sia afi si gbɔgbɔ la ayi la, woawo hã yina, afɔawo hã kɔa wo ɖokuiwo dzi yina, elabena nu gbagbeawo ƒe gbɔgbɔ le afɔawo hã me.
21 When the beastes went, they went, and when they stoode, they stoode, and when they were lifted vp from the earth, the wheeles were lifted vp besides them: for the spirite of the beastes was in the wheeles.
Ne nu gbagbeawo ɖe zɔ la, woawo hã ɖea zɔ; ne nu gbagbeawo tɔ la, woawo hã tɔna, eye ne nu gbagbeawo kɔ wo ɖokuiwo dzi tso anyigba la, tasiaɖam ƒe afɔawo hã kɔa wo ɖokuiwo dzi tso anyigba abe nu gbagbeawo ene, elabena nu gbagbeawo ƒe gbɔgbɔ nɔ tasiaɖam ƒe afɔawo me.
22 And the similitude of the firmament vpon the heads of the beasts was wonderfull, like vnto chrystall, spred ouer their heads aboue.
Nane si ɖi tsikpe, keke, le keklẽm, eye wòdzi ŋɔ la, keke ɖe nu gbagbeawo tame.
23 And vnder the firmament were their wings streight, the one toward the other: every one had two, which couered the, and euery one had two, which couered their bodies.
Nu gbagbeawo keke aʋala ɖekaɖeka do ɖe wo nɔewo gbɔ, eye ɖe sia ɖe tsyɔ aʋala eve na eɖokui.
24 And when they went foorth, I heard the noyse of their wings, like the noyse of great waters, and as the voyce of the Almightie, euen the voyce of speach, as the noyse of an host: and when they stood, they let downe their wings.
Esi nu gbagbeawo ɖe zɔ la, mese gbeɖiɖi aɖe tso woƒe aʋalawo me abe tɔsisiwo ƒe ɖiɖi ene, abe Ŋusẽkatãtɔ la ƒe gbe ene, abe aʋakɔ aɖe ƒe ʋunyaʋunyawɔwɔ ene. Ne nu gbagbeawo tɔ ɖe teƒe ɖeka la, woɖiɖia woƒe aʋalawo.
25 And there was a voyce from the firmament, that was ouer their heads, when they stoode, and had let downe their wings.
Gbe aɖe ɖi tso nu si xe tame na wo la tame esi wotɔ heɖiɖi woƒe aʋalawo.
26 And aboue the firmament that was ouer their heads, was the facion of a throne like vnto a saphir stone, and vpon the similitude of the throne was by appearance, as the similitude of a man aboue vpon it.
Nane si ɖi fiazikpui si wowɔ kple kpe xɔasi ene la le nu si xe woƒe tame la tame, eye nane si ɖi ame la nɔ fiazikpui la dzi le yame ʋĩi.
27 And I sawe as the appearance of amber, and as the similitude of fire round about within it to looke to, euen from his loynes vpwarde: and to looke to, euen from his loynes downewarde, I sawe as a likenesse of fire, and brightnesse round about it.
Mekpɔ be nu si dze abe eƒe ali gbɔ ene, yi eƒe dzime la, le abe ga si le keklẽm ene. Tso afi ma yi anyigba la, le abe dzo ene, eye keklẽ gã aɖe ƒo xlãe.
28 As the likenesse of the bowe, that is in the cloude in the day of raine, so was the appearance of the light round about. This was the appearance of the similitude of the glorie of the Lord: and when I sawe it, I fell vpon my face, and I heard a voyce of one that spake.
Ale si anyieʋɔ dzena le lilikpowo me ne tsi dza la, nenema keklẽ la nɔ ƒo xlãe. Esia dze abe Yehowa ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe ene. Esi mekpɔe la, medze anyi, tsyɔ mo anyi, eye mese ame aɖe ƒe gbe.
