Ezekiel 10
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Septuagint (Greek Old Testament), second edition
1Then I looked, and, behold, upon the firmament 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.
1ΚΑΙ εἶδον καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐπάνω τοῦ στερεώματος τοῦ ὑπὲρ κεφαλῆς τῶν Χερουβὶμ ὡς λίθος σαπφείρου ὁμοίωμα θρόνου ἐπ᾿ αὐτῶν.
2And He spoke unto the man clothed in linen, and said: 'Go in between the wheelwork, even under the cherub, and fill both thy hands with coals of fire from between the cherubim, and dash them against the city.' And he went in in my sight.
2καὶ εἶπε πρὸς τὸν ἄνδρα τὸν ἐνδεδυκότα τὴν στολήν· εἴσελθε εἰς τὸ μέσον τῶν τροχῶν τῶν ὑποκάτω τῶν Χερουβὶμ καὶ πλῆσον τὰς δράκας σου ἀνθράκων πυρὸς ἐκ μέσου τῶν Χερουβὶμ καὶ διασκόρπισον ἐπὶ τὴν πόλιν· καὶ εἰσῆλθεν ἐνώπιον ἐμοῦ.
3Now the cherubim stood on the right side of the house, when the man went in; and the cloud filled the inner court.
3καὶ τὰ Χερουβὶμ εἰστήκει ἐκ δεξιῶν τοῦ οἴκου ἐν τῷ εἰσπορεύεσθαι τὸν ἄνδρα, καὶ ἡ νεφέλη ἔπλησε τὴν αὐλὴν τὴν ἐσωτέραν.
4And the glory of the LORD mounted up from the cherub to 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.
4καὶ ἀπῇρεν ἡ δόξα Κυρίου ἀπὸ τῶν Χερουβὶμ εἰς τὸ αἴθριον τοῦ οἴκου, καὶ ἔπλησε τὸν οἶκον ἡ νεφέλη, καὶ ἡ αὐλὴ ἐπλήσθη τοῦ φέγγους τῆς δόξης Κυρίου·
5And the sound of the wings of the cherubim was heard even to the outer court, as the voice of God Almighty when He speaketh.
5καὶ φωνὴ τῶν πτερύγων τῶν Χερουβὶμ ἠκούετο ἕως τῆς αὐλῆς τῆς ἐξωτέρας ὡς φωνὴ Θεοῦ Σαδδαΐ λαλοῦντος.
6And it came to pass, when He commanded the man clothed in linen, saying: 'Take fire from between the wheelwork, from between the cherubim', that he went in, and stood beside a wheel.
6καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ ἐντέλλεσθαι αὐτὸν τῷ ἀνδρὶ τῷ ἐνδεδυκότι τὴν στολὴν τὴν ἁγίαν λέγων· λαβὲ πῦρ ἐκ μέσου τῶν τροχῶν ἐκ μέσου τῶν Χερουβίμ, καὶ εἰσῆλθε καὶ ἔστη ἐχόμενος τῶν τροχῶν,
7And the cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubim unto the fire that was between the cherubim, and took thereof, and put it into the hands of him that was clothed in linen, who took it and went out.
7καὶ ἐξέτεινε τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ εἰς μέσον τοῦ πυρὸς τοῦ ὄντος ἐν μέσῳ τῶν Χερουβὶμ καὶ ἔλαβε καὶ ἔδωκεν εἰς τὰς χεῖρας τοῦ ἐνδεδυκότος τὴν στολὴν τὴν ἁγίαν, καὶ ἔλαβε καὶ ἐξῆλθε.
8And there appeared in the cherubim the form of a man's hand under their wings.
8καὶ εἶδον τὰ Χερουβὶμ ὁμοίωμα χειρῶν ἀνθρώπων ὑποκάτωθεν τῶν πτερύγων αὐτῶν.
9And I looked, and behold four wheels beside the cherubim, one wheel beside one cherub, and another wheel beside another cherub; and the appearance of the wheels was as the colour of a beryl stone.
9καὶ εἶδον καὶ ἰδοὺ τροχοὶ τέσσαρες εἱστήκεισαν ἐχόμενοι τῶν Χερουβίμ, τροχὸς εἷς ἐχόμενος Χερουβὶμ ἑνός, καὶ ἡ ὄψις τῶν τροχῶν ὡς ὄψις λίθου ἄνθρακος.
10And as for their appearance, they four had one likeness, as if a wheel had been within a wheel.
10καὶ ἡ ὄψις αὐτῶν ὁμοίωμα ἓν τοῖς τέσσαρσιν, ὃν τρόπον ὅταν ᾖ τροχὸς ἐν μέσῳ τροχοῦ.
11When they went, they went toward 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.
11ἐν τῷ πορεύεσθαι αὐτὰ εἰς τὰ τέσσαρα μέρη αὐτῶν ἐπορεύοντο, οὐκ ἐπέστρεφον ἐν τῷ πορεύεσθαι αὐτά· ὅτι εἰς ὃν ἂν τόπον ἐπέβλεψεν ἡ ἀρχὴ ἡ μία, ἐπορεύοντο καὶ οὐκ ἐπέστρεφον ἐν τῷ πορεύεσθαι αὐτά.
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.
12καὶ οἱ νῶτοι αὐτῶν καὶ αἱ χεῖρες αὐτῶν καὶ αἱ πτέρυγες αὐτῶν καὶ οἱ τροχοὶ πλήρεις ὀφθαλμῶν κυκλόθεν τοῖς τέσσαρσι τροχοῖς αὐτῶν·
13As for the wheels, they were called in my hearing The wheelwork.
13τοῖς δὲ τροχοῖς τούτοις ἐπεκλήθη Γελγὲλ ἀκούοντός μου· [14 καὶ τέσσαρα πρόσωπα τῷ ἑνί, τὸ πρόσωπον τοῦ ἑνὸς πρόσωπον τοῦ Χερούβ, καὶ τὸ πρόσωπον τοῦ δευτέρου πρόσωπον ἀνθρώπου καὶ τὸ τρίτον πρόσωπον λέοντος καὶ τὸ τέταρτον πρόσωπον ἀετοῦ].
14And every one had four faces: the first face was the face of the 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.
no verse 14 in this text
15And the cherubim mounted up — this is the living creature that I saw by the river Chebar.
15καὶ ᾖραν τὰ Χερουβίμ. τοῦτο τὸ ζῷον, ὃ εἶδον ἐπὶ τοῦ ποταμοῦ τοῦ Χοβάρ.
16And when the cherubim went, the wheels went beside them; and when the cherubim lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth, the same wheels also turned not from beside them.
16καὶ ἐν τῷ πορεύεσθαι τὰ Χερουβὶμ ἐπορεύοντο οἱ τροχοί, καὶ οὗτοι ἐχόμενοι αὐτῶν· καὶ ἐν τῷ ἐξαίρειν τὰ Χερουβὶμ τὰς πτέρυγας αὐτῶν τοῦ μετεωρίζεσθαι ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς οὐκ ἐπέστρεφον οἱ τροχοὶ αὐτῶν.
17When they stood, these stood, and when they mounted up, these mounted up with them; for the spirit of the living creature was in them.
17ἐν τῷ ἑστάναι αὐτὰ εἱστήκεισαν, καὶ ἐν τῷ μετεωρίζεσθαι αὐτὰ ἐμετεωρίζοντο μετ᾿ αὐτῶν, διότι πνεῦμα ζωῆς ἐν αὐτοῖς ἦν.
18And the glory of the LORD went forth from off the threshold of the house, and stood over the cherubim.
18καὶ ἐξῆλθε δόξα Κυρίου ἀπὸ τοῦ οἴκου καὶ ἐπέβη ἐπὶ τὰ Χερουβίμ,
19And the cherubim lifted up their wings, and mounted up from the earth in my sight when they went forth, and the wheels beside them; and they 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.
19καὶ ἀνέλαβον τὰ Χερουβὶμ τὰς πτέρυγας αὐτῶν καὶ ἐμετεωρίσθησαν ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς ἐνώπιον ἐμοῦ ἐν τῷ ἐξελθεῖν αὐτά, καὶ οἱ τροχοὶ ἐχόμενοι αὐτῶν. καὶ ἔστησαν ἐπὶ τὰ πρόθυρα τῆς πύλης οἴκου Κυρίου τῆς ἀπέναντι, καὶ δόξα Θεοῦ Ἰσραὴλ ἦν ἐπ᾿ αὐτῶν ὑπεράνω.
20This is the living creature that I saw under the God of Israel by the river Chebar; and I knew that they were cherubim.
20τοῦτο τὸ ζῷόν ἐστιν, ὃ εἶδον ὑποκάτω Θεοῦ Ἰσραὴλ ἐπί τοῦ ποταμοῦ τοῦ Χοβάρ, καὶ ἔγνων ὅτι Χερουβίμ ἐστι.
21Every one had four faces apiece, and every one four wings; and the likeness of the hands of a man was under their wings.
21τέσσαρα πρόσωπα τῷ ἑνί, καὶ ὀκτὼ πτέρυγες τῷ ἑνί, καὶ ὁμοίωμα χειρῶν ἀνθρώπου ὑποκάτωθεν τῶν πτερύγων αὐτῶν.
22And as for the likeness of their faces, they were the faces which I saw by the river Chebar, their appearances and themselves; they went every one straight forward.
22καὶ ὁμοίωσις τῶν προσώπων αὐτῶν, ταῦτα τὰ πρόσωπά ἐστιν ἃ εἶδον ὑποκάτω τῆς δόξης τοῦ Θεοῦ Ἰσραὴλ ἐπὶ τοῦ ποταμοῦ τοῦ Χοβάρ, καὶ αὐτὰ ἕκαστον κατὰ πρόσωπον αὐτῶν ἐπορεύοντο.
