에스겔 1장 [KJV]

에스겔 1장 [RSV]

1. 1 Now 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.

   1 In the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, on the fifth day of the month, as I was among the exiles by the river Chebar, the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God.

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

   2 On the fifth day of the month (it was the fifth year of the exile of King Jehoiachin),

3. 3 The 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.

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

4. 4 And 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.

   4 As I looked, behold, a stormy wind came out of the north, and a great cloud, with brightness round about it, and fire flashing forth continually, and in the midst of the fire, as it were gleaming bronze.

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

   5 And from the midst of it came the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance: they had the form of men,

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

   6 but each had four faces, and each of them had four wings.

7. 7 And 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.

   7 Their legs were straight, and the soles of their feet were like the sole of a calfs foot; and they sparkled like burnished bronze.

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

   8 Under their wings on their four sides they had human hands. And the four had their faces and their wings thus:

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

   9 their wings touched one another; they went every one straight forward, without turning as they went.

10. 10 As 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.

    10 As for the likeness of their faces, each had the face of a man in front; the four had the face of a lion on the right side, the four had the face of an ox on the left side, and the four had the face of an eagle at the back.

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

    11 Such were their faces. And their wings were spread out above; each creature had two wings, each of which touched the wing of another, while two covered their bodies.

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

    12 And each went straight forward; wherever the spirit would go, they went, without turning as they went.

13. 13 As 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.

    13 In the midst of the living creatures there was something that looked like burning coals of fire, like torches moving to and fro among the living creatures; and the fire was bright, and out of the fire went forth lightning.

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

    14 And the living creatures darted to and fro, like a flash of lightning.

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

    15 Now as I looked at the living creatures, I saw a wheel upon the earth beside the living creatures, one for each of the four of them.

16. 16 The 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.

    16 As for the appearance of the wheels and their construction: their appearance was like the gleaming of a chrysolite; and the four had the same likeness, their construction being as it were a wheel within a wheel.

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

    17 When they went, they went in any of their four directions without turning as they went.

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

    18 The four wheels had rims and they had spokes; and their rims were full of eyes round about.

19. 19 And 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.

    19 And when the living creatures went, the wheels went beside them; and when the living creatures rose from the earth, the wheels rose.

20. 20 Whithersoever 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.

    20 Wherever the spirit would go, they went, and the wheels rose along with them; for the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.

21. 21 When 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.

    21 When those went, these went; and when those stood, these stood; and when those rose from the earth, the wheels rose along with them; for the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.

22. 22 And 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.

    22 Over the heads of the living creatures there was the likeness of a firmament, shining like crystal, spread out above their heads.

23. 23 And 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.

    23 And under the firmament their wings were stretched out straight, one toward another; and each creature had two wings covering its body.

24. 24 And 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.

    24 And when they went, I heard the sound of their wings like the sound of many waters, like the thunder of the Almighty, a sound of tumult like the sound of a host; when they stood still, they let down their wings.

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

    25 And there came a voice from above the firmament over their heads; when they stood still, they let down their wings.

26. 26 And 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.

    26 And above the firmament over their heads there was the likeness of a throne, in appearance like sapphire; and seated above the likeness of a throne was a likeness as it were of a human form.

27. 27 And 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.

    27 And upward from what had the appearance of his loins I saw as it were gleaming bronze, like the appearance of fire enclosed round about; and downward from what had the appearance of his loins I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and there was brightness round about him.

28. 28 As 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.

    28 Like the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud on the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. Such 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 the voice of one speaking.
