1 Now it happened in the shalawashayam (thirty) shanah (year), in the rabayaiy (fourth) month, in the chamash (fifth) of the chadash (month), as I was thawak (midst) the gawalah (captives) by the nahar (river) Kabar (Chebar), that the shamayam (Shamayam / Heavens) were pathach (opened), and I raah (see) maraawath (visions) of Alahayam ().
2 In the chamash (fifth) of the chadash (month), which was the chamayashay (fifth) shanah (year) of malak (king) Yawayakayan (Jehoiachin's) galawath (captivity),
3 The dabar (word / matter) of Yahawah () came expressly to Yachazaqaal (Ezekiel) the kahan (priest), the ban (son) of Bawazay (Buzi), in the aratz (Earth/land) of the Kashaday (Chaldeans) by the nahar (river) Kabar (Chebar); and the yad (hand) of Yahawah () was there on him.
4 I raah (see / saw), and behold, a stormy rawach (spirit / wind) bawaa (bring) out of the tzapawan (north), a gadawal (very great/important/mighty) inan (cloud), with flashing lightning, and a nagah (brightness) around it, and out of its thawak (midst) as it were glowing metal, out of the thawak (midst) of the ash (fire).
5 Out of its thawak (midst) came the damawath (likeness) of arabai (four) chay (life) creatures. This was their maraah (appearance): they had the damawath (likeness) of a adam (man).
6 Everyone had arabai (four) panayam (face), and achad (one) one of them had arabai (four) kanapayam (wings).
7 Their ragal (feet / foot) were yashar (upright) ragal (feet / foot); and the kap (sole) of their ragal (feet / foot) was like the kap (sole) of a igal (calf's) ragal (feet / foot); and they natzatz (sparkled) like qalal (burnished) nachashath (brass).
8 They had the yad (hand) of a adam (man) under their kanap (wings) on their arabai (four) rabai (fourth); and the arabai (four) of them had their panayam (face) and their kanap (wings) thus:
9 Their kanap (wings) were chabar (joined) ayashah (woman / wife) to achawath (another); they didn't sabab (turn) when they yalak (went); ayash (man / husband) one yalak (went) ibar (straight) forward.
10 As for the damawath (likeness) of their panay (face of), they had the panayam (face) of a adam (man); and the arabai (four) of them had the panayam (face) of a aray (lion) on the yamayan (right hand) side; and the arabai (four) of them had the panayam (face) of an shawar (ox) on the shamaawal (left hand) side; the arabai (four) of them also had the panayam (face) of an nashar (eagle).
11 Such were their panayam (face). Their kanap (wings) were spread out mail (top/above). Shanayam (two) wings of ayash (man / husband) ayash (man / husband) touched ayash (man / husband), and shanayam (two) kasah (covered) their gawayah (corpse).
12 Ayash (man / husband) one yalak (went) ibar (straight) forward: where the rawach (spirit / wind) was to yalak (go), they yalak (went); they didn't sabab (turn) when they yalak (went).
13 As for the damawath (likeness) of the chay (life) creatures, their maraah (appearance) was like bair (burning) gachalay (coals) of ash (fire), like the maraah (appearance) of torches: the fire halak (move) up and down among the chay (life) creatures; and the ash (fire) was nagah (bright), and out of the ash (fire) yatzaa (go out / come out) forth baraq (lightning).
14 The chay (life) creatures ratzaa (ran) and shawab (turn) as the maraah (appearance) of a bazaq (flash) of lightning.
15 Now as I raah (see / saw) the chay (life) creatures, behold, achad (one) awapan (wheel) on the aratz (Earth/land) beside the chay (life) creatures, for each of the arabai (four) panayam (face) of it.
16 The maraah (appearance) of the awapanayam (wheels) and their maishah (work) was like a tharashayash (beryl): and the arabai (four) of them had achad (one) damawath (likeness); and their maraah (appearance) and their maishah (work) was as it were a awapan (wheel) thawak (midst) a awapan (wheel).
17 When they yalak (went), they yalak (went) in their arabai (four) directions: they didn't sabab (turn) when they yalak (went).
18 As for their rims, they were gabah (high) and yaraah (dreadful); and the arabai (four) of them had their rims malaa (full) of iyanayam (eyes) all around.
19 When the chay (life) creatures yalak (went), the awapanayam (wheels) yalak (went) beside them; and when the chay (life) creatures were nashaa (lift) up from the aratz (Earth/land), the awapanayam (wheels) were nashaa (lift) up.
20 Wherever the rawach (spirit / wind) was to yalak (go), they yalak (went); there was the rawach (spirit / wind) to yalak (go): and the awapanayam (wheels) were nashaa (lift) up imah (beside) them; for the rawach (spirit / wind) of the chay (life) creature was in the awapanayam (wheels).
21 When those yalak (went), these yalak (went); and when those imad (stood), these imad (stood); and when those were nashaa (lift) up from the aratz (Earth/land), the awapanayam (wheels) were nashaa (lift) up imah (beside) them: for the rawach (spirit / wind) of the chay (life) creature was in the awapanayam (wheels).
22 Over the raash (head) of the chay (life) creature there was the damawath (likeness) of an expanse, like the awesome qarach (crystal) to look on, natah (stretched) forth over their raashay (heads) mail (top/above).
23 Under the expanse were their kanap (wings) yashar (upright), the ayashah (woman / wife) toward the other: ayash (man / husband) one had shanayam (two) which kasah (covered) on hanah (Behold) side, and ayash (man / husband) one had shanayam (two) which kasah (covered) on that hanah (Behold), their gawayah (corpse).
24 When they yalak (went), I shamai (hearken / hear) the qawal (sound / voice) of their kanap (wings) like the qawal (sound / voice) of rab (great) mayam (Waters), like the qawal (sound / voice) of the Shaday (), a qawal (sound / voice) of hamalah (tumult) like the qawal (sound / voice) of an machanah (army): when they imad (stood), they rapah (let) down their kanap (wings).
25 There was a qawal (sound / voice) above the expanse that was over their raash (head): when they imad (stood), they rapah (let) down their kanap (wings).
26 Mail (top/above) the expanse that was over their raash (head) was the damawath (likeness) of a kasaa (throne), as the maraah (appearance) of a sapayar (sapphire) aban (stone); and on the damawath (likeness) of the kasaa (throne) was a damawath (likeness) as the maraah (appearance) of a adam (man) on it mail (top/above).
27 I raah (see / saw) as it were glowing metal, as the maraah (appearance) of ash (fire) bayath (house) it all around, from the maraah (appearance) of his waist and upward; and from the maraah (appearance) of his waist and matah (downward) I raah (see / saw) as it were the maraah (appearance) of ash (fire), and there was nagah (brightness) around him.
28 As the maraah (appearance) of the rainbow that is in the inan (cloud) in the yawam (day) of gasham (rain), so was the maraah (appearance) of the nagah (brightness) all around. This was the maraah (appearance) of the damawath (likeness) of the kabawad (glory) of Yahawah (). When I raah (see) it, I napal (fall / be cast down) on my panayam (face), and I shamai (hearken / hear) a qawal (sound / voice) of one that dabar (word / matter).
