Иезекииль 1
Russian New Testament: Easy-to-Read Version
1 1-3 Я—священник Иезекииль, сын Вузия. Я был в изгнании возле канала Кебар в Вавилонской земле, когда небо раскрылось и подарило мне видение Бога. Это произошло на пятый день четвертого месяца тридцатого года[a].
В пятый год изгнания царя Иехонии, на пятый день месяца к Иезекиилю пришло слово Господнее, и снизошла на него сила Господняя.
Колесница Господа—трон Божий
4 Я, Иезекииль, видел вихрь, идущий с севера. Это была большая туча, из которой рвался огонь, и вокруг нее сиял свет. Она была подобна раскалённому металлу[b], сияющему в огне. 5 В середине её я увидел четырёх животных, они выглядели как люди. 6 У каждого из них было по четыре лица и четыре крыла. 7 Их ноги были прямыми, но копыта были как у коров и блестели как начищенная медь. 8 Под крыльями у них были человеческие руки, у тех четырёх животных было по четыре лица и четыре крыла.
9 Животные соприкасались друг с другом крыльями. Каждое из них шло прямо вперёд, не оглядываясь, когда передвигалось. 10 Каждое из них имело четыре лица: впереди было лицо человека, справа—лицо льва, слева—лицо быка, а сзади—орла. 11 Их крылья были расправлены сверху. У каждого было по два крыла, которые касались крыльев другого. У них также было по два крыла, которыми они укрывали свои тела. 12 Они двигались, не поворачиваясь, туда, куда был направлен их взгляд. Они шли туда, куда их вёл дух[c].
13 Между животными сверкало нечто похожее на горящие угли или маленькие факелы, летающие между ними. Огонь был очень ярким, и молнии вырывались из него. 14 Быстро, как молнии, животные переносились из стороны в сторону[d].
15-16 Я посмотрел на животных и заметил четыре колеса: по одному для каждого из них. Колёса касались земли, и казалось, что они сделаны из драгоценного желтого камня, а внутри каждого колеса было ещё одно колесо. 17 Животные могли перемещаться только в четырёх направлениях, куда смотрели их лица, но поворачивать они не могли[e].
18 Колёса, усеянные глазами, были огромных размеров, и на них нельзя было смотреть без страха.
19 Колёса двигались одновременно с животными, и если животные поднимались ввысь, то и колёса поднимались вместе с ними. 20 Животные шли в том направлении, куда вёл их дух, и колёса двигались вместе с ними, потому что сила, находящаяся в этих колёсах, двигала их. 21 И если они двигались, то двигались и колёса, а если останавливались, то и колёса замирали. Если колёса поднимались, то и животные поднимались за ними, потому что в этих колёсах был дух.
22 Над их головами находилось нечто, выглядевшее как великолепный хрустальный свод[f], простирающийся над ними. 23 Под сводом у каждого из животных было по четыре крыла, по два с каждой стороны его тела: два крыла, соприкасаясь друг с другом, простирались в одну сторону, а два других—в другую, покрывая тело.
24 И тогда я услышал их крылья. При каждом движении животных их крылья издавали шум, подобный бурной, несущейся рядом воде. Они были громкими, как громогласный Господь Всемогущий, как армия или толпа людей. И когда животные останавливались, то их крылья складывались по бокам.
25 Животные останавливались и опускали крылья, а сверху, из свода над их головами, раздавался громкий звук. 26 Над сводом, находившемся над их головами, было подобие престола цвета голубого сапфира, а на престоле этом сидел некто, напоминающий собою человека. 27 Я видел его от пояса и выше, он был как горячий металл, окружённый огнём, а от пояса книзу всё вокруг сияло ярким пламенем. 28 Вокруг него был сияющий свет, словно радуга, пробивающаяся сквозь тучи. Так выглядела слава Господняя. И тогда я пал на землю и, склонившись лицом к ней, услышал голос, говорящий со мной.

Ezekiel’s Vision of God
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 (A)the River Chebar, that (B)the heavens were opened and I saw (C)visions[a] of God. 2 On the fifth day of the month, which was in the fifth year of King Jehoiachin’s captivity, 3 the word of the Lord came expressly to Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the [b]Chaldeans by the River Chebar; and (D)the hand of the Lord was upon him there.
4 Then I looked, and behold, (E)a whirlwind was coming (F)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. 5 (G)Also from within it came the likeness of four living creatures. And (H)this was their appearance: they had (I)the likeness of a man. 6 Each one had four faces, and each one had four wings. 7 Their [c]legs were straight, and the soles of their feet were like the soles of calves’ feet. They sparkled (J)like the color of burnished bronze. 8 (K)The hands of a man were under their wings on their four sides; and each of the four had faces and wings. 9 Their wings touched one another. The creatures did not turn when they went, but each one went straight (L)forward.
10 As for (M)the likeness of their faces, each (N)had the face of a man; each of the four had (O)the face of a lion on the right side, (P)each of the four had the face of an ox on the left side, (Q)and each of the four had the face of an eagle. 11 Thus were their faces. Their wings stretched upward; two wings of each one touched one another, and (R)two covered their bodies. 12 And (S)each one went straight forward; they went wherever the spirit wanted to go, and they did not turn when they went.
13 As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire, (T)like the appearance of torches going back and forth among the living creatures. The fire was bright, and out of the fire went lightning. 14 And the living creatures ran back and forth, (U)in appearance like a flash of lightning.
15 Now as I looked at the living creatures, behold, (V)a wheel was on the earth beside each living creature with its four faces. 16 (W)The appearance of the wheels and their workings was (X)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. 17 When they moved, they went toward any one of four directions; they did not turn aside when they went. 18 As for their rims, they were so high they were awesome; and their rims were (Y)full of eyes, all around the four of them. 19 (Z)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. 20 Wherever the spirit wanted to go, they went, because there the spirit went; and the wheels were lifted together with them, (AA)for the spirit of the [d]living creatures was in the wheels. 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 [e]living creatures was in the wheels.
22 (AB)The likeness of the [f]firmament above the heads of the [g]living creatures was like the color of an awesome (AC)crystal, stretched out (AD)over their heads. 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. 24 (AE)When they went, I heard the noise of their wings, (AF)like the noise of many waters, like (AG)the voice of the Almighty, a tumult like the noise of an army; and when they stood still, they let down their wings. 25 A voice came from above the firmament that was over their heads; whenever they stood, they let down their wings.
26 (AH)And above the firmament over their heads was the likeness of a throne, (AI)in appearance like a sapphire stone; on the likeness of the throne was a likeness with the appearance of a man high above (AJ)it. 27 Also from the appearance of His waist and upward (AK)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. 28 (AL)Like the appearance of a rainbow in a cloud on a rainy day, so was the appearance of the brightness all around it. (AM)This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord.
Ezekiel Sent to Rebellious Israel
So when I saw it, (AN)I fell on my face, and I heard a voice of One speaking.

Ezekiel’s Inaugural Vision
1 In my thirtieth year, in the fourth month on the fifth day, while I was among the exiles(A) by the Kebar River,(B) the heavens were opened(C) and I saw visions(D) of God.
2 On the fifth of the month—it was the fifth year of the exile of King Jehoiachin(E)— 3 the word of the Lord came to Ezekiel(F) the priest, the son of Buzi, by the Kebar River in the land of the Babylonians.[a] There the hand of the Lord was on him.(G)
4 I looked, and I saw a windstorm(H) coming out of the north(I)—an immense cloud with flashing lightning and surrounded by brilliant light. The center of the fire looked like glowing metal,(J) 5 and in the fire was what looked like four living creatures.(K) In appearance their form was human,(L) 6 but each of them had four faces(M) and four wings. 7 Their legs were straight; their feet were like those of a calf and gleamed like burnished bronze.(N) 8 Under their wings on their four sides they had human hands.(O) All four of them had faces and wings, 9 and the wings of one touched the wings of another. Each one went straight ahead; they did not turn as they moved.(P)
10 Their faces looked like this: Each of the four had the face of a human being, and on the right side each had the face of a lion, and on the left the face of an ox; each also had the face of an eagle.(Q) 11 Such were their faces. They each had two wings(R) spreading out upward, each wing touching that of the creature on either side; and each had two other wings covering its body. 12 Each one went straight ahead. Wherever the spirit would go, they would go, without turning as they went.(S) 13 The appearance of the living creatures was like burning coals(T) of fire or like torches. Fire moved back and forth among the creatures; it was bright, and lightning(U) flashed out of it. 14 The creatures sped back and forth like flashes of lightning.(V)
15 As I looked at the living creatures,(W) I saw a wheel(X) on the ground beside each creature with its four faces. 16 This was the appearance and structure of the wheels: They sparkled like topaz,(Y) and all four looked alike. Each appeared to be made like a wheel intersecting a wheel. 17 As they moved, they would go in any one of the four directions the creatures faced; the wheels did not change direction(Z) as the creatures went. 18 Their rims were high and awesome, and all four rims were full of eyes(AA) all around.
19 When the living creatures moved, the wheels beside them moved; and when the living creatures rose from the ground, the wheels also rose. 20 Wherever the spirit would go, they would go,(AB) and the wheels would rise along with them, because the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels. 21 When the creatures moved, they also moved; when the creatures stood still, they also stood still; and when the creatures rose from the ground, the wheels rose along with them, because the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.(AC)
22 Spread out above the heads of the living creatures was what looked something like a vault,(AD) sparkling like crystal, and awesome. 23 Under the vault their wings were stretched out one toward the other, and each had two wings covering its body. 24 When the creatures moved, I heard the sound of their wings, like the roar of rushing(AE) waters, like the voice(AF) of the Almighty,[b] like the tumult of an army.(AG) When they stood still, they lowered their wings.
25 Then there came a voice from above the vault over their heads as they stood with lowered wings. 26 Above the vault over their heads was what looked like a throne(AH) of lapis lazuli,(AI) and high above on the throne was a figure like that of a man.(AJ) 27 I saw that from what appeared to be his waist up he looked like glowing metal, as if full of fire, and that from there down he looked like fire; and brilliant light surrounded him.(AK) 28 Like the appearance of a rainbow(AL) in the clouds on a rainy day, so was the radiance around him.(AM)
This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory(AN) of the Lord. When I saw it, I fell facedown,(AO) and I heard the voice of one speaking.
