< Hezekiel 10 >

1 Meda ŋku ɖi, eye mekpɔ nu si ɖi fiazikpui si wowɔ kple kpe xɔasi la wònɔ teƒe keke si nɔ kerubiawo tame.
Then I looked, and, behold, in the firmament that was above the head of the cherubims there appeared over them as it were a sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne.
2 Yehowa gblɔ na ame si do aklala biɖibiɖi ƒe awu la be, “Yi tasiaɖamfɔti siwo dzi kerubiawo le la dome. Lɔ dzoka xɔxɔ si le kerubiawo dome la ɖe wò asi me, eye nàwui ɖe du la dzi.” Menɔ ekpɔm wòge ɖe eme.
And he spoke unto the man clothed with linen, and said, Go in between the wheels, even under the cherub, and fill your hand with coals of fire from between the cherubims, and scatter them over the city. And he went in in my sight.
3 Azɔ la, kerubiawo nɔ tsitre ɖe gbedoxɔ la ƒe dziehe lɔƒo esi ame la ge ɖe eme, eye lilikpo yɔ xɔxɔnu emetɔ fũu.
Now the cherubims stood on the right side of the house, when the man went in; and the cloud filled the inner court.
4 Tete Yehowa ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe ho tso kerubiawo tame, eye wòyi gbedoxɔ la ƒe kpui nu. Lilikpo la yɔ gbedoxɔ la fũu, eye Yehowa ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe ƒe keklẽ yɔ xɔxɔnu la.
Then the glory of the LORD went up from the cherub, and stood over the threshold of the house; and the house was filled with the cloud, and the court was full of the brightness of the LORD's glory.
5 Woate ŋu ase kerubiawo ƒe aʋalaƒoƒo ƒe ɖiɖi le keke xɔxɔnu egodotɔ ke abe Mawu Ŋusẽkatãtɔ la ƒe gbe, ne eƒo nu ene.
And the sound of the cherubims' wings was heard even to the outer court, as the voice of the Almighty God when he speaks.
6 Yehowa ɖe gbe na ame si do aklala biɖibiɖi ƒe awu la be, “Ɖe dzo tso tasiaɖamfɔtiawo dome, le kerubiawo dome.” Ŋutsu la yi ɖatsi tsitre ɖe tasiaɖamfɔtiawo dometɔ ɖeka gbɔ.
And it came to pass, that when he had commanded the man clothed with linen, saying, Take fire from between the wheels, from between the cherubims; then he went in, and stood beside the wheels.
7 Tete kerubiawo dometɔ ɖeka do eƒe asi ɖa te ɖe dzo si le wo dome la ŋu. Eɖe dzo la ƒe ɖe ɖe asi na ame si do aklala biɖibiɖi ƒe awu la. Exɔe eye wodo go.
And one cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubims unto the fire that was between the cherubims, and took thereof, and put it into the hands of him that was clothed with linen: who took it, and went out.
8 Woate ŋu akpɔ nane si ɖi amegbetɔ ƒe asi la le kerubiawo ƒe aʋala te.
And there appeared in the cherubims the form of a man's hand under their wings.
9 Meda ŋku ɖi, eye mekpɔ tasiaɖamfɔti ene le kerubiawo gbɔ, ɖeka le kerubi ɖe sia ɖe gbɔ, eye tasiaɖamfɔtiawo nɔ dzo dam abe kpe xɔasi ene.
And when I looked, behold the four wheels by the cherubims, one wheel by one cherub, and another wheel by another cherub: and the appearance of the wheels was as the colour of a beryl stone.
10 Wo ame eneawo katã woɖi wo nɔewo; wo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe nɔ abe tasiaɖamfɔti ɖeka ko wonye ge ɖe nɔvia me ene.
And as for their appearances, they four had one likeness, as if a wheel had been in the midst of a wheel.
11 Ne wole zɔzɔm la, woyia teƒe eneawo dometɔ ɖeka, afi si kerubi la atrɔ mo ɖo. Tasiaɖamfɔtiawo metrɔna to eme hafi dzea kerubi la yome o. Kerubi la yia afi sia afi si wòtrɔ mo ɖo, eye wometrɔna le zɔzɔme o.
When they went, they went upon their four sides; they turned not as they went, but to the place where the head looked they followed it; they turned not as they went.
12 Ŋkuwo nɔ woƒe ŋutilã ƒe akpa sia akpa, woƒe dzime, woƒe asiwo kple woƒe aʋalawo ŋu abe ale si wonɔ tasiaɖamfɔti eneawo hã ŋu ene.
And their whole body, and their backs, and their hands, and their wings, and the wheels, were full of eyes round about, even the wheels that they four had.
13 Mese wonɔ tasiaɖamfɔtiawo yɔm be “yalifɔtiwo.”
As for the wheels, it was cried unto them in my hearing, O wheel.
14 Mo ene nɔ kerubiawo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe si. Moawo dometɔ ɖeka nye kerubi tɔ, evelia nye ame tɔ, etɔ̃lia nye dzata tɔ eye enelia nye hɔ̃ tɔ.
And every one had four faces: the first face was the face of a cherub, and the second face was the face of a man, and the third the face of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle.
15 Kerubiawo kɔ wo ɖokui dzi. Esiawoe nye nu gbagbe siwo mekpɔ le Kebar Tɔsisi la to.
And the cherubims were lifted up. This is the living creature that I saw by the river of Chebar.
16 Ne kerubiawo ɖe zɔ la, tasiaɖamfɔtiawo nɔa wo xa, eye woawo hã zɔna. Ne kerubiawo keke woƒe aʋala be yewoadzo la tasiaɖamfɔtiawo meɖena ɖa le wo xa o.
And when the cherubims went, the wheels went by them: and when the cherubims lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth, the same wheels also turned not from beside them.
17 Ne kerubiawo tɔ la, woawo hã wotɔna, eye ne kerubiawo dzo la, woawo hã wodzona kpli wo, elabena nu gbagbeawo ƒe gbɔgbɔ nɔ wo me.
When they stood, these stood; and when they were lifted up, these lifted up themselves also: for the spirit of the living creature was in them.
18 Tete Yehowa ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe dzo le gbedoxɔ la ƒe kpui la tame, eye wòtɔ ɖe kerubiawo tame.
Then the glory of the LORD departed from off the threshold of the house, and stood over the cherubims.
19 Esi meda ŋku ɖi la, kerubiawo keke woƒe aʋalawo, dzo tso anyigba, eye esi woyina la, tasiaɖamfɔtiawo hã yi kpli wo. Wotɔ ɖe Yehowa ƒe aƒe la ƒe ɣedzeƒegbo la tame, eye Israel ƒe Mawu la ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe nɔ wo tame.
And the cherubims lifted up their wings, and mounted up from the earth in my sight: when they went out, the wheels also were beside them, and every one stood at the door of the east gate of the LORD's house; and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above.
20 Esiawoe nye nu gbagbe siwo mekpɔ le Israel ƒe Mawu la te le Kebar tɔsisi la to eye medze sii be, kerubiwo wonye.
This is the living creature that I saw under the God of Israel by the river of Chebar; and I knew that they were the cherubims.
21 Mo ene kple aʋala ene nɔ ɖe sia ɖe si, eye nu si ɖi ame ƒe asiwo la nɔ woƒe aʋalawo te.
Every one had four faces apiece, and every one four wings; and the likeness of the hands of a man was under their wings.
22 Woƒe mowo nɔ abe esiwo mekpɔ le Kebar tɔsisi la to ene. Wo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe yi ŋgɔ tẽe.
And the likeness of their faces was the same faces which I saw by the river of Chebar, their appearances and themselves: they went every one straight forward.
