¹Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I was among the captives by the river of Chebar, that the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God.

¹Lâin laj Ezequiel laj tij. Lâin jun saß xyânkeb laj Israel li queßchapeß ut queßcßameß saß li naßajej Babilonia. Cocßameß chire li nimaß Quebar. Ôb cutan chic xticlajic xcâ li po re li lajêb xcaßcßâl chihab nak li Dios quixcßutbesiheb li visión chicuu. Quiteli li choxa chicuu nak quicuil.

²In the fifth day of the month, which was the fifth year of king Jehoiachin's captivity,

²Ac ôb chihab xcßambal li rey Joaquín aran Babilonia.

³The word of the LORD came expressly unto Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans by the river Chebar; and the hand of the LORD was there upon him.

³Saß li chihab aßan, saß li roß xbe li xcâ po nak cuanquin saß xchßochßeb laj Babilonia chire li nimaß Quebar quicuabi nak li Kâcuaß quiâtinac cuiqßuin lâin li ralal laj Buzi. Chanchan nak quixqßue li rukß saß inbên nak quicuecßa lix cuanquil.

⁴And I looked, and, behold, a whirlwind came out of the north, a great cloud, and a fire infolding itself, and a brightness was about it, and out of the midst thereof as the colour of amber, out of the midst of the fire.

⁴Quicuil nak yô chak chi châlc saß li norte jun cacuil ikß. Li ikß aßan yô chak chixcßambal jun li chok sutsu riqßuin xam ut nalemtzßun. Chanchan yô chi repoc joß nak narepoc li câk. Ut saß li chok nacßutun jun li xam ut saß li xam cuan jun li nalemtzßun joß li kßan chßîchß bronce.

⁵Also out of the midst thereof came the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance; they had the likeness of a man.

⁵Ut saß li xam queßcßutun câhib li chanchaneb ángel yoßyôqueb. Chanchan nequeßiloc cuînk.

⁶And every one had four faces, and every one had four wings.

⁶Chixjûnkaleb cuanqueb câhib li rilobâl ut câhib lix xiqßueb.

⁷And their feet were straight feet; and the sole of their feet was like the sole of a calf's foot: and they sparkled like the colour of burnished brass.

⁷Ut lix tzelequeb tîqueb ut li rokeb chanchan rokeb li cuacax ut nalemtzßun joß li kßan chßîchß bronce.

⁸And they had the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides; and they four had their faces and their wings.

⁸Rubeleb lix xicß câhib cuan li rukßeb chanchan rukßeb cuînk. Chixjûnkaleb câ câ li rilobâleb ut câ câ lix xiqßueb saß xcâ pacßalileb.

⁹Their wings were joined one to another; they turned not when they went; they went every one straight forward.

⁹Nequeßxcßul ribeb lix xiqßueb chi ribileb rib. Ut nak nequeßbêc incßaß nequeßxic chirix. Tîc ban chiru nequeßxic.

¹⁰As for the likeness of their faces, they four had the face of a man, and the face of a lion, on the right side: and they four had the face of an ox on the left side; they four also had the face of an eagle.

¹⁰Joßcaßin nequeßiloc li câhib chi rilobâl li junjûnk chi ángel: Li cuan chiruheb, aßan chanchan na-iloc cuînk. Li cuan saß lix nimeb, aßan chanchan na-iloc cakcoj. Ut li cuan saß lix tzßeheb, aßan chanchan na-iloc bôyx. Ut li cuan chirixeb, aßan chanchan na-iloc tßiu.

¹¹Thus were their faces: and their wings were stretched upward; two wings of every one were joined one to another, and two covered their bodies.

¹¹Ut helho ruheb lix xiqßueb saß xbêneb chi xjûnkaleb. Cuib lix xiqßueb nequeßxcßul ribeb ut riqßuin li cuib chic nequeßxtzßap rib.

¹²And they went every one straight forward: whither the spirit was to go, they went; and they turned not when they went.

¹²Nak nequeßbêc chi xjûnkaleb tîc chiruheb nequeßxic. Nequeßxic bar nequeßcßameß cuiß xban lix musikß. Incßaß tento nak toj teßxsukßisi ribeb nak nequeßbêc.

¹³As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire, and like the appearance of lamps: it went up and down among the living creatures; and the fire was bright, and out of the fire went forth lightning.

¹³Eb li câhib li yoßyôqueb li chanchaneb ángel aßan queßcßutun saß li visión joß li ru xam li yô xxamlel. Cuan li xam chanchan yô chi bêc saß xyânkeb ut nalemtzßun ut saß li xam narepoc li câk.

¹⁴And the living creatures ran and returned as the appearance of a flash of lightning.

¹⁴Ut li câhib li chanchaneb ángel nequeßchal nequeßxic saß junpât joß nak narepoc li câk.

¹⁵Now as I beheld the living creatures, behold one wheel upon the earth by the living creatures, with his four faces.

¹⁵Nak yôquin chirilbaleb li câhib li chanchaneb ángel quicuil ajcuiß câhib li rueda saß ruchichßochß. Junjûnk li rueda cuan chixcßatkeb li junjûnk li chanchaneb ángel.

¹⁶The appearance of the wheels and their work was like unto the colour of a beryl: and they four had one likeness: and their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel in the middle of a wheel.

¹⁶Li câhib chi rueda juntakßêteb xyîbanquileb. Eb li rueda aßan nequeßlemtzßun chanchan li châbil pec crisólito. Ut eb li ruedas aßan quicuil chanchan nak cuan chic jun li rueda chi saß li jun chic.

¹⁷When they went, they went upon their four sides: and they turned not when they went.

¹⁷Saß xcâ pacßalil nequeßxic li ruedas aßan. Nak nequeßxic incßaß nequeßxsukßisi ribeb.

¹⁸As for their rings, they were so high that they were dreadful; and their rings were full of eyes round about them four.

¹⁸Ut li chßîchß li sursu li cuan chiru li rueda cuan nabal xnakßeb ru saß li câhib chi rueda. Xiu xiu rilbal.

¹⁹And when the living creatures went, the wheels went by them: and when the living creatures were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up.

¹⁹Nak nequeßbêc li câhibeb li chanchaneb ángel, nequeßbêc ajcuiß li ruedas rochbeneb. Ut nak eb li chanchaneb ángel nequeßcuacli, eb li ruedas nequeßcuacli ajcuiß.

²⁰Whithersoever the spirit was to go, they went, thither was their spirit to go; and the wheels were lifted up over against them: for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels.

²⁰Eb li chanchaneb ángel beresinbileb xban lix musikß ut nequeßxic bar nequeßcßameß cuiß. Ut eb li ruedas nequeßxic bar nequeßxic cuiß li chanchaneb ángel.

²¹When those went, these went; and when those stood, these stood; and when those were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up over against them: for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels.

²¹Nak nequeßbêc li chanchaneb ángel, nequeßbêc ajcuiß li ruedas. Ut nak nequeßxakli, nequeßxakli ajcuiß li ruedas. Nak nequeßcuacli, nequeßcuacli li ruedas xban nak lix musikßeb li chanchaneb ángel na-ecßasin reheb li ruedas.

²²And the likeness of the firmament upon the heads of the living creature was as the colour of the terrible crystal, stretched forth over their heads above.

²²Ut saß xbêneb li câhib li chanchaneb ángel cuan li chanchan choxa nalemtzßun joß li lem.

²³And under the firmament were their wings straight, the one toward the other: every one had two, which covered on this side, and every one had two, which covered on that side, their bodies.

²³Ut rubel li chanchan choxa helhôqueb lix xicß chi tîc ut nequeßxcßul ribeb. Ut riqßuin li cuib chic li xiqßueb nequeßxtzßap ribeb.

²⁴And when they went, I heard the noise of their wings, like the noise of great waters, as the voice of the Almighty, the voice of speech, as the noise of an host: when they stood, they let down their wings.

²⁴Ut quicuabi lix yâb lix xiqßueb nak yôqueb chi bêc chanchan nak na-ecßan xyâb rok li haß, malaj ut chanchan xyâb xcux li nimajcual Dios, malaj ut chanchan xyâbeb li qßuila tenamit, malaj ut chanchan xyâb li jun tûb chi soldados. Ut nak nequeßxakli, nequeßxcubsi lix xiqßueb.

²⁵And there was a voice from the firmament that was over their heads, when they stood, and had let down their wings.

²⁵Nak nequeßxakli nequeßxcubsi lix xiqßueb, na-abiman jun xyâb cux na-el chak saß xbên li chanchan choxa, li cuan saß xbên lix jolomeb li chanchaneb ángel.

²⁶And above the firmament that was over their heads was the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone: and upon the likeness of the throne was the likeness as the appearance of a man above upon it.

²⁶Ut saß xbên li chanchan choxa li cuan saß xbêneb li chanchaneb ángel, quicßutun jun li cßojaribâl yîbanbil riqßuin li châbil raxi pec safiro. Ut saß li cßojaribâl aßan chunchu jun li chanchan cuînk.

²⁷And I saw as the colour of amber, as the appearance of fire round about within it, from the appearance of his loins even upward, and from the appearance of his loins even downward, I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and it had brightness round about.

²⁷Ut quicuil ajcuiß li cuînk li chunchu saß li cßojaribâl chanchan li kßan chßîchß bronce li jun tokol naticla saß lix cßâmal xsaß toj takecß. Chanchan yô xxamlel. Ut li jun tokol chic li naticla saß lix cßâmal xsaß toj takßa chanchan xam. Cßajoß nak nalemtzßun chi xjun sutam.Nalemtzßun lix lokßal li Dios nak quicuil. Chanchan li xôquikßab li naxqßue rib saß li chok nak yô li hab. Nak quicuil lix lokßal li Dios, quincut cuib saß chßochß ut quicuabi xyâb xcux nak qui-oc chi âtinac.

²⁸As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face, and I heard a voice of one that spake.

²⁸Nalemtzßun lix lokßal li Dios nak quicuil. Chanchan li xôquikßab li naxqßue rib saß li chok nak yô li hab. Nak quicuil lix lokßal li Dios, quincut cuib saß chßochß ut quicuabi xyâb xcux nak qui-oc chi âtinac.
