Ezequiel 10

SAGRADA BIBLIA	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Olhei. Na abóbada estendida acima da cabeça dos querubins, havia como que uma pedra de safira, uma espécie de trono, que aparecia sobre eles.	1 And saw and behold in the firmament that was over the heads of the cherubims, there appeared over them as it were the sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne.
2 {O Senhor} disse então ao homem vestido de linho: Passa no meio das rodas, debaixo do querubim; enche a mão de carvões ardentes que tomarás entre os querubins, e espalha essas brasas sobre a cidade. E ele se foi sob as minhas vistas.	2 And he spoke to the man, that was clothed with linen, and said: Go in between the wheels that are under the cherubims and fill thy hand with the coals of fire that are between the cherubims, and pour them out upon the city. And he went in, in my sight:
3 Quando o homem acabou de fazer isso, estavam os querubins à direita do templo, e a nuvem enchia o átrio interior.	3 And the cherubims stood on the right side of the house, when the man went in, and a cloud filled the inner court.
4 A glória do Senhor elevou-se acima dos querubins até a soleira do templo, e enquanto o esplendor da glória do Senhor enchia o átrio, a nuvem invadia o templo.	4 And the glory of the Lord was lifted up from above the cherub to the threshold of the house: and the house was filled with the cloud, and the court was filled with the brightness of the glory of the Lord.
5 O ruflar das asas dos querubins fazia-se ouvir até no pátio exterior, e assemelhava-se à voz do Deus onipotente quando fala.	5 And the sound of the wings of the cherubims was heard even to the outward court as the voice of God Almighty speaking.
6 Apenas havia ordenado ao homem de linho tomar o fogo no intervalo das rodas, entre os querubins, este veio postar-se junto de uma roda,	6 And when he had commanded the man that was clothed with linen, saying: Take fire from the midst of the wheels that are between the cherubims: he went in and stood beside the wheel,
7 e {um dos} querubins estendeu a mão para o fogo que se encontrava em meio dos querubins. Daí ele retirou brasas, que colocou na mão do homem vestido de linho, o qual as tomou, e saiu.	7 And one cherub stretched out his arm from the midst of the cherubims to the fire that was between the cherubims: and he took, and put it into the hands of him that was clothed with linen: who took it and went forth.
8 Notei que os querubins pareciam ter mãos humanas sob as asas.	8 And there appeared in the cherubims the likeness of a man's hand under their wings.
9 Eu olhei ainda. Havia ao lado dos querubins quatro rodas, uma junto a cada um deles. Possuíam o clarão da gema de Társis.	9 And I saw, and behold there were four wheels by the cherubims: one wheel by one cherub, and another wheel by another cherub: and the appearance of the wheels was to the sight like the chrysolite stone:
10 Todas as quatro pareciam ter a mesma forma, e cada uma parecia estar no meio da outra.	10 And as to their appearance, all four were alike: as if a wheel were in the midst of a wheel.
11 Deslocando-se nas quatro direções, avançavam sem se voltarem, porque iam sempre na direção tomada pela que ia à frente, sem se voltar em seu movimento.	11 And when they went, they went by four ways: and they turned not when they went: but to the place whither they first turned, the rest also followed, and did not turn back.
12 Todo o seu corpo, suas costas, suas mãos e suas asas, assim como as rodas, achavam-se guarnecidas de olhos em derredor: cada um dos quatro possuía uma roda.	12 And their whole body, and their necks, and their hands, and their wings, and the circles were full of eyes, round about the four wheels.
13 Ouvi que se dava a essas rodas o nome de turbilhão.	13 And these wheels he called voluble, in my hearing.
14 Cada um {dos querubins} tinha quatro faces: o primeiro, a de um querubim; o segundo, um aspecto humano; o terceiro, o de um touro, e o quarto o de uma águia.	14 And every one had four faces: one face was the face of a cherub, and the second face, the face of a man: and in the third was the face of a lion: and in the fourth the face of an eagle.
15 Os querubins se elevaram {eram os seres vivos que eu tinha visto às margens do Cobar}.	15 And the cherubims were lifted up: this is the living creature that I had seen by the river Chobar.
16 Quando os querubins se deslocavam, as rodas se deslocavam com eles; quando desdobravam as asas para elevar-se da terra, as rodas não se desprendiam deles.	16 And when the cherubims went, the wheels also went by them: and when the cherubims lifted up their wings, to mount up from the earth, the wheels stayed not behind, but were by them.
17 Quando paravam, as rodas paravam; se se elevavam no espaço, elas de igual modo se elevavam, porque o espírito desses seres vivos estava {também} nelas.	17 When they stood, these stood: and when they were lifted up, these were lifted up: for the spirit of life was in them.
18 De repente, a glória do Senhor deixou a soleira do templo e pousou sobre os querubins.	18 And the glory of the Lord went forth from the threshold of the temple: and stood over the cherubims.
19 Estes desdobraram as asas, e eu os vi alçarem-se da terra com as rodas ao lado, para partirem. Eles pararam à entrada da porta oriental do templo, dominados pela glória do Senhor.	19 And the cherubims lifting up their wings, were raised from the earth before me: and as they went out, the wheels also followed: and it stood in the entry of the east gate of the house of the Lord: and the glory of the God of Israel was over them.
20 Estavam lá os seres vivos que eu tinha visto debaixo do Deus de Israel, às margens do Cobar, e reconheci os querubins:	20 This is the living creature, which I saw under the God of Israel by the river Chobar: and I understood that they were cherubims.
21 cada um tinha quatro figuras e quatro asas, e sob as asas algo parecido com mãos humanas.	21 Each one had four faces, and each one had four wings: and the likeness of a man's hand was under their wings.
22 Suas figuras assemelhavam-se àquelas que eu tinha visto às margens do Cobar. Cada um deles ia para a frente diante de si.	22 And as to the likeness of their faces, they were the same faces which I had seen by the river Chobar, and their looks, and the impulse of every one to go straight forward.
