Hesekiel 10
1 Mehwɛeɛ, na mehunuu biribi te sɛ aboɔdemmoɔ ahennwa a ɛhoho ntrɛmu a ɛwɔ Kerubim apampam no so.
Then I looked, and see, in the expanse that was over the head of the cherubim there appeared above them as it were a sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne.
2 Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ ɔbarima a ɔfira nwera no sɛ, “Kɔhyɛ ntwahonan a ɛwɔ Kerubim ase no mu. Fa egyasramma nsabuo firi Kerubim no mu na to pete kuropɔn no so.” Megu so rehwɛ no, ɔkɔhyɛɛ mu.
He spoke to the man clothed in linen, and said, “Go in between the whirling wheels, even under the cherub, and fill both your hands with coals of fire from between the cherubim, and scatter them over the city.” He went in as I watched.
3 Afei na Kerubim no gyinagyina asɔredan no anafoɔ fam ɛberɛ a ɔbarima no kɔhyɛnee mu no, na omununkum kɔhyɛɛ emu fam adihɔ hɔ ma.
Now the cherubim stood on the right side of the house when the man went in; and the cloud filled the inner court.
4 Na Awurade animuonyam pagyaa ne ho firii Kerubim no atifi kɔɔ asɔredan no aboboano. Omununkum no yɛɛ asɔredan no ma na Awurade animuonyam hyerɛn yɛɛ adihɔ hɔ ma.
Yahweh’s glory mounted 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 Yahweh’s glory.
5 Kerubim ntaban no nnyegyeeɛ no, na wɔte wɔ mfikyire fam adihɔ hɔ te sɛ Otumfoɔ Onyankopɔn nne, ɛberɛ a ɔrekasa.
The sound of the wings of the cherubim was heard even to the outer court, as the voice of God Almighty when he speaks.
6 Ɛberɛ a Awurade hyɛɛ ɔbarima a ɔfira nwera no sɛ, “Yi egyasramma firi ntwahonan no mu, firi Kerubim no ase no,” ɔbarima no kɔɔ mu kɔgyinaa ntwahonan no baako ho.
It came to pass, when he commanded the man clothed in linen, saying, “Take fire from between the whirling wheels, from between the cherubim,” that he went in and stood beside a wheel.
7 Afei, Kerubim no mu baako tenee ne nsa hyɛɛ egyasramma a ɛwɔ wɔn mu no mu. Ɔfaa mu bi de hyɛɛ ɔbarima a ɔfira nwera no nsam, na ɔno nso gyeeɛ de firii adi.
The cherub stretched out his hand from between the cherubim to the fire that was between the cherubim, and took some of it, and put it into the hands of him who was clothed in linen, who took it and went out.
8 (Na wɔhunu biribi te sɛ onipa nsa wɔ Kerubim no ntaban ase.)
The form of a man’s hand appeared here in the cherubim under their wings.
9 Mehwɛeɛ, na mehunuu ntwahonan ɛnan a baako biara gyina Kerubim nkyɛn, na ntwahonan no pa yerɛ yerɛ te sɛ sikabereɛboɔ.
I looked, and behold, there were four wheels beside the cherubim, one wheel beside one cherub, and another wheel beside another cherub. The appearance of the wheels was like a beryl stone.
10 Sɛdeɛ ɛteɛ no deɛ, na ntwahonan no nyinaa sesɛ; ebiara wɔ ntwahonan foforɔ hyɛ mu.
As for their appearance, the four of them had one likeness, like a wheel within a wheel.
11 Sɛ wɔnam a, wɔn nyinaa de wɔn anim kyerɛ deɛ Kerubim baako de nʼanim bɛkyerɛ. Ntwahonan no nnane wɔn ho ɛberɛ a Kerubim no nam. Kerubim no kɔ tee deɛ etire no anim kyerɛ a ɔnnane ne ho.
When they went, they went in their four directions. They didn’t turn as they went, but to the place where the head looked they followed it. They didn’t turn as they went.
12 Wɔn ho nyinaa, wɔn akyi, wɔn nsa ne wɔn ntaban nyinaa, aniwa tuatua ho. Saa ara na ntwahonan ɛnan no nso teɛ.
Their whole body, including their backs, their hands, their wings, and the wheels, were full of eyes all around, even the wheels that the four of them had.
13 Metee sɛ wɔrefrɛ ntwahonan no, “kyinhyia ntwahonan.”
As for the wheels, they were called in my hearing, “the whirling wheels”.
14 Kerubim no mu biara wɔ anim ɛnan. Anim baako te sɛ kerub, deɛ ɛtɔ so mmienu te sɛ onipa anim, deɛ ɛtɔ so mmiɛnsa te sɛ gyata anim, deɛ ɛtɔ so ɛnan te sɛ ɔkɔdeɛ anim.
Every one of them had four faces. The first face was the face of the cherub. The second face was the face of a man. The third face was the face of a lion. The fourth was the face of an eagle.
15 Afei, Kerubim no pagyaa wɔn ho. Yeinom na na wɔyɛ ateasefoɔ a na mahunu wɔn wɔ Asubɔnten Kebar ho no.
The cherubim mounted up. This is the living creature that I saw by the river Chebar.
16 Sɛ Kerubim no keka wɔn ho a, ntwahonan a ɛwowɔ wɔn ho no nso keka wɔn ho; na sɛ Kerubim no trɛtrɛ wɔn ntaban mu pagya wɔn ho kɔ ewiem a, ntwahonan no ka wɔn ho ara.
When the cherubim went, the wheels went beside them; and when the cherubim lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth, the wheels also didn’t turn from beside them.
17 Sɛ Kerubim no gyinagyina dinn a, ntwahonan no nso gyinagyina dinn, na sɛ Kerubim no pagya wɔn ho a, wɔne wɔn pagya wɔn ho, ɛfiri sɛ, ateasefoɔ no honhom wɔ wɔn mu.
When they stood, these stood. When they mounted up, these mounted up with them; for the spirit of the living creature was in them.
18 Afei, Awurade animuonyam no firii asɔredan no aboboano na ɛkɔgyinaa Kerubim no atifi.
Yahweh’s glory went out from over the threshold of the house and stood over the cherubim.
19 Merehwɛ no, Kerubim no trɛtrɛɛ wɔn ntaban mu pagyaa wɔn ho firii fam na ntwahonan no ne wɔn kɔɔeɛ. Wɔkɔgyinaa Awurade efie ɛpono a ɛwɔ apueeɛ fam no ano, na na Israel Onyankopɔn animuonyam wɔ wɔn atifi.
The cherubim lifted up their wings and mounted up from the earth in my sight when they went out, with the wheels beside them. Then they stood at the door of the east gate of Yahweh’s house; and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above.
20 Yeinom ne ateasefoɔ a na mahunu wɔn wɔ Israel Onyankopɔn ase wɔ Asubɔnten Kebar ho no, na medwene hunuiɛ sɛ wɔyɛ Kerubim.
This is the living creature that I saw under the God of Israel by the river Chebar; and I knew that they were cherubim.
21 Wɔn mu biara wɔ animu ɛnan ne ataban ɛnan na biribi a ɛte sɛ onipa nsa wowɔ wɔn ntaban ase.
Every one had four faces, and every one four wings. The likeness of the hands of a man was under their wings.
22 Wɔn nyinaa animu te sɛ deɛ na mahunu wɔ Asubɔnten Kebar ho no. Wɔn mu biara kɔ nʼanim tee.
As for the likeness of their faces, they were the faces which I saw by the river Chebar, their appearances and themselves. They each went straight forward.
