エゼキエル書 10

1 茲に我見しにケルビムの首の上なる穹蒼に靑玉のごとき者ありて寶位の形に見ゆ彼そのケルビムの上にあらはれたまひて

As I looked toward the dome that was over the heads of the cherubim; something appeared above them like a sapphire with the appearance of the likeness of a throne.

2 かの布の衣を着たる人に告て言たまひけるはケルビムの下なる輪の間に入りて汝の手にケルビムの間の炭火を盈し之を邑に散すべしとすなはち吾目の前にて其處に入しが

Then Yahweh spoke to the man dressed in linen and said, “Go between the wheels underneath the cherubim, and fill both your hands with fiery coals from between the cherubim and scatter them over the city.” Then the man went in as I watched.

3 其人の入る時ケルビムは家の右に立をり雲その内庭に盈り

The cherubim stood on the right side of the house when the man went in, and a cloud filled the inner courtyard.

4 茲にヱホバの榮光ケルブの上より昇りて家の閾にいたる又家には雲滿ちその庭にはヱホバの榮光の輝光盈てり

The glory of Yahweh rose up from the cherubim and stood over the threshold of the house. It filled the house with the cloud, and the courtyard was full of the brightness of Yahweh's glory.

5 時にケルビムの羽音外庭に聞ゆ全能の神の言語たまふ聲のごとし

The sound of the cherubim's wings was heard as far as the outer courtyard, like the voice of God Almighty when he speaks.

6 彼布の衣を着たる人に命じて輪の間ケルビムの間より火を取れと言たまひければ即ち入りて輪の傍に立ちけるに

It came about, when God commanded the man dressed in linen and said, “Take fire from between the wheels that are between the cherubim,” the man went in and stood beside a wheel.

7 一のケルブその手をケルビムの間より伸てケルビムの間の火を取り之をかの布の衣を着たる人の手に置れたれば彼これを取りて出づ

A cherub reached out his hand between the cherubim to the fire that was among the cherubim, and lifted it up and placed it into the hands of the one dressed in linen. The man took it and went back out.

8 ケルビムに人の手の形の者ありて其翼の下に見ゆ

I saw on the cherubim something like a man's hand under their wings.

9 我見しにケルビムの側に四箇の輪あり此ケルブにも一箇の輪あり彼ケルブにも一箇の輪あり輪の式は黄金色の玉のごとくに見ゆ

So I looked, and behold! Four wheels were beside the cherubim—one wheel beside each cherub—and the appearance of the wheels was like a beryl stone.

10 その式は四箇みな同じ形にして輪の中に輪のあるがごとし

Their appearance was the same likeness for all four of them, like a wheel intersecting another wheel.

11 その行ときは四方に行く行にまはることなし首の向ふところに從ひ行く行にまはることなし

When they moved, they went in any of their four directions, without turning as they went; but whatever direction the head faced, they followed after it without turning as they went.

12 その全身その脊その手その翼および輪には四周に徧く目ありその四箇みな輪あり

Their whole body—including their backs, their hands, and their wings—was covered with eyes, and eyes covered the four wheels all around also.

13 我聞に轉回れと輪にむかひてよばはるあり

As I listened, the wheels were called, “Whirling.”

14 其は各々四の面あり第一の面はケルブの面第二の面は人の面第三のは獅子の面第四のは鷲の面なり

They had four faces each; the first face was the face of a cherub, the second face was the face of a man, the third the face of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle.

15 ケルビムすなはち昇れり是わがケバル河の邊にて見たるところの生物なり

Then the cherubim—these were the living creatures that I had seen by the Kebar Canal—rose up.

16 ケルビムの行く時は輪もその傍に行きケルビム翼をあげて地より飛上る時は輪またその傍を離れず

Whenever the cherubim moved, the wheels would go beside them, and whenever the cherubim lifted up their wings to rise up from the earth, the wheels did not turn. They still stayed beside them.

17 その立つときは立ちその上る時は俱に上れりその生物の靈は其等の中にあり

When the cherubim stood still, the wheels stood still, and when they rose up, the wheels rose up with them, for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels.

18 時にヱホバの榮光家の閾より出ゆきてケルビムの上に立ちければ

Then the glory of Yahweh went out from over the threshold of the house and stood over the cherubim.

19 ケルビムすなはちその翼をあげ出ゆきてわが目の前にて地より飛のぼれり輪はその傍にあり而して遂にヱホバの家の東の門の入口にいたりて止るイスラエルの神の榮光その上にあり

The cherubim lifted up their wings and rose from the earth in my sight when they went out, and the wheels did the same beside them. They stood at the eastern entrance to Yahweh's house, and the glory of the God of Israel came upon them from above.

20 是すなはち吾がケバル河の邊にてイスラエルの神の下に見たるところの生物なり吾そのケルビムなるを知れり

These were the living creatures that I had seen below the God of Israel by the Kebar Canal, so I knew that they were cherubim!

21 是等には各々四宛の面あり各箇四の翼あり又人の手のごとき物その翼の下にあり

They had four faces each and four wings each, and the likeness of human hands under their wings,

22 その面の形は吾がケバル河の邊にて見たるところの面なりその姿も身も然り各箇その面にしたがひて行けり

and the likeness of their faces was like the faces that I had seen in the vision at the Kebar Canal, and each of them went straight ahead.
