¹Then 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.

¹In videl sem, in glej, na nebesnem raztežju, ki se je razpenjalo nad glavami kerubimov, se je prikazalo kakor safirov kamen in se je videlo kakor podoba prestola, kažočega se nad njimi.

²And he spake unto the man clothed with linen, and said, Go in between the wheels, even under the cherub, and fill thine hand with coals of fire from between the cherubims, and scatter them over the city. And he went in in my sight.

²In ogovori moža v platnenem oblačilu in veli: Stopi noter med vrteča se kolesa pod kerubom in napolni si prgišča z živo žerjavico izmed kerubimov in jo raztresi čez mesto. In stopil je tja vpričo mene.

³Now the cherubims stood on the right side of the house, when the man went in; and the cloud filled the inner court.

³Kerubimi pa so stali na desni strani hiše, ko je šel mož noter, in oblak je polnil notranje dvorišče.

⁴Then 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.

⁴In slava GOSPODOVA se je povznesla iznad keruba in je stala nad hišnim pragom; in hiša se je napolnila z oblakom in dvorišče je bilo polno sijaja slave GOSPODOVE.

⁵And the sound of the cherubims' wings was heard even to the outer court, as the voice of the Almighty God when he speaketh.

⁵In šumenje perutnic kerubimov se je slišalo prav do zunanjega dvora kakor glas Boga silnega, Vsegamogočnega, kadar govori.

⁶And 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.

⁶In ko je zapovedal možu v platnenem oblačilu, rekoč: Vzemi ognja izmed vrtečih se koles, izmed kerubimov! šel je mož noter in stopil zraven kolesa.

⁷And 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.

⁷In kerub iztegne roko izmed kerubimov k ognju, ki je bil med kerubimi, in vzame od njega ter da v roke tistemu, ki je bil v platno oblečen; ta pa vzame in gre ven.

⁸And there appeared in the cherubims the form of a man's hand under their wings.

⁸In prikazala se je na kerubimih podoba človeške roke, pod njih perutnicami.

⁹And 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.

⁹In videl sem, in glej: štiri kolesa poleg kerubimov, po eno kolo pri vsakem kerubu. Podoba koles pa je bila videti kakor lice kamena hrizolita.

¹⁰And as for their appearances, they four had one likeness, as if a wheel had been in the midst of a wheel.

¹⁰Po videzu so imela vsa štiri eno podobo, kakor da bi bilo kolo sredi kolesa.

¹¹When they went, they went upon their four sides; they turned not as they went, but to the place whither the head looked they followed it; they turned not as they went.

¹¹Kadar so šli, so šli na svoje štiri strani; niso se obračali, kadar so šli, temuč proti mestu, kamor je bila obrnjena glava, so šli za njo; niso se obračali, kadar so šli.

¹²And 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.

¹²In ves njih život in njih hrbet in njih roke in njih perutnice, tudi kolesa, vse je bilo polno oči kroginkrog; vsi štirje so imeli svoja kolesa.

¹³As for the wheels, it was cried unto them in my hearing, O wheel.

¹³In tista kolesa so bila imenovana, da sem slišal: vrteča se kolesa.

¹⁴And 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.

¹⁴In vsako je imelo štiri obličja: obličje prvo je bilo obličje kerubovo in obličje drugo človekovo, tretje obličje pa levovo in četrto orlovo.

¹⁵And the cherubims were lifted up. This is the living creature that I saw by the river of Chebar.

¹⁵In kerubimi so se vznašali. Bili so tiste žive stvari, katere sem bil videl pri reki Kebarju.

¹⁶And 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.

¹⁶In kadar so hodili kerubimi, so šla kolesa poleg njih; kadar pa so kerubimi peruti razprostrli, da se povzpno od zemlje, se tudi kolesa niso odmikala od njih.

¹⁷When 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.

¹⁷Ko so se ustavili, so tudi obstala, in ko so se povzpeli, so se vzdignila ž njimi vred, zakaj duh žive stvari je bil v njih.

¹⁸Then the glory of the LORD departed from off the threshold of the house, and stood over the cherubims.

¹⁸In slava GOSPODOVA je odšla iznad hišnega praga in se je ustopila nad kerubimi.

¹⁹And 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.

¹⁹In kerubimi so razpostrli peruti in se vzdignili kvišku od zemlje vpričo mene, in ž njimi, gredočimi ven, so vzporedno šla kolesa. In ustopili so se ob vhodu v vzhodna vrata hiše GOSPODOVE, in slava Boga Izraelovega je bila zgoraj nad njimi.

²⁰This 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.

²⁰To je bila živa stvar, katero sem videl pod Bogom Izraelovim pri reki Kebarju; in spoznal sem, da so bili kerubimi.

²¹Every one had four faces apiece, and every one four wings; and the likeness of the hands of a man was under their wings.

²¹Vsak je imel štiri obličja in vsak štiri perutnice, in podoba rok človeških je bila pod njih perutnicami.Kar se pa tiče sličnosti njih obrazov, so bila ista obličja, ki sem jih videl pri reki Kebarju, enaka so se videla in enaka so bila. Vsak je hodil naravnost predse.

²²And 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.

²²Kar se pa tiče sličnosti njih obrazov, so bila ista obličja, ki sem jih videl pri reki Kebarju, enaka so se videla in enaka so bila. Vsak je hodil naravnost predse.
