| Nabi melihat kemuliaan TUHAN 1:1 Pada tahun ketiga puluh, dalam bulan yang keempat, pada tanggal lima bulan itu, ketika aku bersama-sama dengan para buangan berada di tepi sungai Kebar, terbukalah langit dan aku melihat penglihatan-penglihatan tentang Allah. 1:2 Pada tanggal lima bulan itu, yaitu tahun kelima sesudah raja Yoyakhin dibuang, 1:3 datanglah firman TUHAN kepada imam Yehezkiel, anak Busi, di negeri orang Kasdim di tepi sungai Kebar, dan di sana kekuasaan TUHAN meliputi dia. 1:4 Lalu aku melihat, sungguh, angin badai bertiup dari utara, dan membawa segumpal awan yang besar dengan api yang berkilat-kilat dan awan itu dikelilingi oleh sinar; di dalam, di tengah-tengah api itu kelihatan seperti suasa mengkilat. 1:5 Dan di tengah-tengah itu juga ada yang menyerupai empat makhluk hidup dan beginilah kelihatannya mereka: mereka menyerupai manusia, 1:6 tetapi masing-masing mempunyai empat muka dan pada masing-masing ada pula empat sayap. 1:7 Kaki mereka adalah lurus dan telapak kaki mereka seperti kuku anak lembu; kaki-kaki ini mengkilap seperti tembaga yang baru digosok. 1:8 Pada keempat sisi mereka di bawah sayap-sayapnya tampak tangan manusia. Mengenai muka dan sayap mereka berempat adalah begini: 1:9 mereka saling menyentuh dengan sayapnya; mereka tidak berbalik kalau berjalan, masing-masing berjalan lurus ke depan. 1:10 Muka mereka kelihatan begini: Keempatnya mempunyai muka manusia di depan, muka singa di sebelah kanan, muka lembu di sebelah kiri, dan muka rajawali di belakang. 1:11 Sayap-sayap mereka dikembangkan ke atas; mereka saling menyentuh dengan sepasang sayapnya dan sepasang sayap yang lain menutupi badan mereka. 1:12 Masing-masing berjalan lurus ke depan; ke arah mana roh itu hendak pergi, ke sanalah mereka pergi, mereka tidak berbalik kalau berjalan. 1:13 Di tengah makhluk-makhluk hidup itu kelihatan seperti bara api yang menyala, seperti suluh, yang bergerak kian ke mari di antara makhluk-makhluk hidup itu, dan api itu bersinar sedang dari api itu kilat sabung-menyabung. 1:14 Makhluk-makhluk hidup itu terbang ke sana ke mari seperti kilat. 1:15 Aku melihat, sungguh, di atas tanah di samping masing-masing dari keempat makhluk-makhluk hidup itu ada sebuah roda. 1:16 Rupa roda-roda itu seperti kilauan permata pirus dan keempatnya adalah serupa; buatannya seolah-olah roda yang satu di tengah-tengah yang lain. 1:17 Kalau mereka berjalan mereka dapat menuju keempat jurusan; mereka tidak berbalik kalau berjalan. 1:18 Mereka mempunyai lingkar dan aku melihat, bahwa sekeliling lingkar yang empat itu penuh dengan mata. 1:19 Kalau makhluk-makhluk hidup itu berjalan, roda-roda itu juga berjalan di samping mereka; dan kalau makhluk-makhluk hidup itu terangkat dari atas tanah, roda-roda itu turut terangkat. 1:20 Ke arah mana roh itu hendak pergi, ke sanalah mereka pergi, dan roda-rodanya sama-sama terangkat dengan mereka, sebab roh makhluk-makhluk hidup itu berada di dalam roda-rodanya. 1:21 Kalau makhluk-makhluk hidup itu berjalan, roda-roda itu berjalan; kalau mereka berhenti, roda-roda itu berhenti; dan kalau mereka terangkat dari tanah, roda-roda itu sama-sama terangkat dengan mereka; sebab roh makhluk-makhluk hidup itu berada di dalam roda-rodanya. 1:22 Di atas kepala makhluk-makhluk hidup itu ada yang menyerupai cakrawala, yang kelihatan seperti hablur es yang mendahsyatkan, terbentang di atas kepala mereka. 1:23 Dan di bawah cakrawala itu sayap mereka dikembangkan lurus, yang satu menyinggung yang lain; dan masing-masing mempunyai sepasang sayap yang menutupi badan mereka. 1:24 Kalau mereka berjalan, aku mendengar suara sayapnya seperti suara air terjun yang menderu, seperti suara Yang Mahakuasa, seperti keributan laskar yang besar; kalau mereka berhenti, sayapnya dibiarkan terkulai. 1:25 Maka kedengaranlah suara dari atas cakrawala yang ada di atas kepala mereka; kalau mereka berhenti, sayapnya dibiarkan terkulai. 1:26 Di atas cakrawala yang ada di atas kepala mereka ada menyerupai takhta yang kelihatannya seperti permata lazurit; dan di atas yang menyerupai takhta itu ada yang kelihatan seperti rupa manusia. 1:27 Dari yang menyerupai pinggangnya sampai ke atas aku lihat seperti suasa mengkilat dan seperti api yang ditudungi sekelilingnya; dan dari yang menyerupai pinggangnya sampai ke bawah aku lihat seperti api yang dikelilingi sinar. 1:28 Seperti busur pelangi, yang terlihat pada musim hujan di awan-awan, demikianlah kelihatan sinar yang mengelilinginya. Begitulah kelihatan gambar kemuliaan TUHAN. Tatkala aku melihatnya aku sembah sujud, lalu kudengar suara Dia yang berfirman. | 1:1 Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth [month], on the fifth [day] of the month, as I [was] among the captives by the River Chebar, [that] the heavens were opened and I saw visions of God. 1:2 On the fifth [day] of the month, which [was] in the fifth year of King Jehoiachin's captivity, 1:3 the word of the LORD came expressly 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. 1:4 Then I looked, and behold, a whirlwind was coming out of the north, a great cloud with raging fire engulfing itself; and brightness [was] all around it and radiating out of its midst like the color of amber, out of the midst of the fire. 1:5 Also from within it [came] the likeness of four living creatures. And this [was] their appearance: they had the likeness of a man. 1:6 Each one had four faces, and each one had four wings. 1:7 Their legs [were] straight, and the soles of their feet [were] like the soles of calves' feet. They sparkled like the color of burnished bronze. 1:8 The hands of a man [were] under their wings on their four sides; and each of the four had faces and wings. 1:9 Their wings touched one another. [The creatures] did not turn when they went, but each one went straight forward. 1:10 As for the likeness of their faces, [each] had the face of a man; each of the four had the face of a lion on the right side, each of the four had the face of an ox on the left side, and each of the four had the face of an eagle. 1:11 Thus [were] their faces. Their wings stretched upward; two [wings] of each one touched one another, and two covered their bodies. 1:12 And each one went straight forward; they went wherever the spirit wanted to go, and they did not turn when they went. 1:13 As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance [was] like burning coals of fire, like the appearance of torches going back and forth among the living creatures. The fire was bright, and out of the fire went lightning. 1:14 And the living creatures ran back and forth, in appearance like a flash of lightning. 1:15 Now as I looked at the living creatures, behold, a wheel [was] on the earth beside each living creature with its four faces. 1:16 The appearance of the wheels and their workings [was] like the color of beryl, and all four had the same likeness. The appearance of their workings [was], as it were, a wheel in the middle of a wheel. 1:17 When they moved, they went toward any one of four directions; they did not turn aside when they went. 1:18 As for their rims, they were so high they were awesome; and their rims [were] full of eyes, all around the four of them. 1:19 When the living creatures went, the wheels went beside them; and when the living creatures were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up. 1:20 Wherever the spirit wanted to go, they went, [because] there the spirit went; and the wheels were lifted together with them, for the spirit of the living creatures [was] in the wheels. 1:21 When those went, [these] went; when those stood, [these] stood; and when those were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up together with them, for the spirit of the living creatures [was] in the wheels. 1:22 The likeness of the firmament above the heads of the living creatures [was] like the color of an awesome crystal, stretched out over their heads. 1:23 And under the firmament their wings [spread out] straight, one toward another. Each one had two which covered one side, and each one had two which covered the other side of the body. 1:24 When they went, I heard the noise of their wings, like the noise of many waters, like the voice of the Almighty, a tumult like the noise of an army; and when they stood still, they let down their wings. 1:25 A voice came from above the firmament that [was] over their heads; whenever they stood, they let down their wings. 1:26 And above the firmament over their heads [was] the likeness of a throne, in appearance like a sapphire stone; on the likeness of the throne [was] a likeness with the appearance of a man high above it. 1:27 Also from the appearance of His waist and upward I saw, as it were, the color of amber with the appearance of fire all around within it; and from the appearance of His waist and downward I saw, as it were, the appearance of fire with brightness all around. 1:28 Like the appearance of a rainbow in a cloud on a rainy day, so [was] the appearance of the brightness all around it. This [was] the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. So when I saw [it], I fell on my face, and I heard a voice of One speaking. |
