以西结书 1
Revised Chinese Union Version (Simplified Script) Shen Edition
以西结的第一个异象(A)
神的宝座
1 在三十年四月初五，我在迦巴鲁河边被掳的人当中，那时天开了，我看见 神的异象。 2 正是约雅斤王被掳的第五年四月初五， 3 在迦勒底人之地的迦巴鲁河边，耶和华的话特地临到布西的儿子以西结祭司，耶和华的手按在他身上。
4 我观看，看哪，狂风从北方刮来，有一朵大云闪烁着火，周围有光辉，其中的火好像闪耀的金属； 5 又从其中显出四个活物的形像。他们的形状是这样：有人的形像， 6 各有四张脸，四个翅膀。 7 他们的腿是直的，脚掌好像牛犊的蹄，灿烂如磨亮的铜。 8 在四面的翅膀以下有人的手。这四个活物的脸和翅膀是这样： 9 翅膀彼此相接，行走时并不转弯，各自往前直行。 10 至于脸的形像：四个活物各有人的脸，右面有狮子的脸，左面有牛的脸，也有鹰的脸； 11 这就是他们的脸[a]。他们的翅膀向上张开，各有两个翅膀彼此相接，用另外两个翅膀遮体。 12 他们各自往前直行。灵往哪里去，他们就往哪里去，行走时并不转弯。 13 至于四活物的形像，就如烧着火炭的形状，又如火把的形状。有火在四活物中间来回移动，这火有光辉，从火中发出闪电。 14 这些活物往来奔走，好像电光一闪。
15 我观看活物，看哪，有四张脸的活物旁边各有一个轮子在地上。 16 轮子的形状结构[b]好像耀眼的水苍玉。四轮都是一个样式，形状[c]结构好像轮中套轮。 17 轮子行走的时候，向四方直行，行走时并不转弯。 18 至于轮圈，高而可畏；四个轮圈周围布满眼睛。 19 活物行走，轮子也在旁边行走；活物离地上升，轮子也上升。 20 灵往哪里去，活物就往哪里去；轮子在活物旁边上升，因为活物的灵在轮中。 21 活物行走，轮子也行走；活物站住，轮子也站住；活物离地上升，轮子也在旁边上升，因为活物的灵在轮中。
22 活物的头上面有穹苍的形像，像耀眼惊人的水晶，铺张在活物的头顶上。 23 穹苍之下，活物的翅膀伸直，彼此相对，每个活物用两个翅膀遮住自己；每个活物用两个翅膀遮住自己[d]，就是自己的身体。 24 活物行走的时候，我听见翅膀的响声，像大水的声音，像全能者的声音，又像军队闹哄的声音。活物站住的时候，翅膀垂下。 25 在他们头上的穹苍之上有声音。他们站住的时候，翅膀垂下。
26 在他们头上的穹苍之上有宝座的形像，仿佛蓝宝石的样子；宝座的形像上方有仿佛人的样子的形像。 27 我见他的腰以上有仿佛闪耀的金属，周围有仿佛火的形状，又见他的腰以下有仿佛火的形状，周围也有光辉。 28 下雨的日子，云中彩虹的形状怎样，周围光辉的形状也是怎样。
这就是耶和华荣耀形像的样式，我一看见就脸伏于地。我又听见一位说话者的声音。

Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
以西結的異象
1 第三十年四月五日，我正在迦巴魯河畔被擄的人當中，忽然天開了，我看見了上帝的異象。 2 那是約雅斤王被擄第五年的四月五日， 3 就在迦勒底人境內的迦巴魯河畔，耶和華的話特別傳給了布西的兒子以西結祭司，耶和華的能力[a]降在他身上。
4 在異象中，我看見一陣狂風從北方颳來，隨後有一大朵雲閃耀著火光，四周環繞著燦爛的光芒，火的中心像發光的金屬。 5 火中有四個像人形的活物， 6 每個活物有四張不同的面孔和四個翅膀。 7 他們的腿是直的，腳如同牛犢的蹄，都亮如磨光的銅。 8 四面的翅膀下都有人的手，四個活物都有臉和翅膀， 9 翅膀彼此相連。他們移動時不必轉身，各朝前面移動。 10 四個活物的面孔是這樣的：正面是人的臉，右面是獅子的臉，左面是牛的臉，後面是鷹的臉。 11 他們的翅膀向上展開，每個活物的一對翅膀與其他活物的翅膀相連，另外一對翅膀遮蔽身體。 12 耶和華的靈往哪裡去，他們也往哪裡去，移動時不用轉身。 13 四個活物的形像如燃燒的火炭，又像火把。活物之間有火上下移動，發出耀眼的閃電。 14 這些活物像閃電一樣往來飛馳。
15 當我觀看這些活物的時候，發現每個活物旁邊的地上都有一個輪子。 16 四個輪子的形狀和結構都一樣，好像輪套輪，如同閃耀的綠寶石。 17 他們可以向四面移動，移動時輪子不必轉向。 18 輪圈高而可畏，周圍佈滿了眼睛。 19 活物行走，輪子也在旁邊行走；活物上升，輪子也上升。 20 靈往哪裡去，活物也往哪裡去，輪子也跟著往哪裡去，因為活物的靈在輪子裡。 21 活物行走，輪子也行走；活物站立不動，輪子也站立不動；活物上升，輪子也跟著上升，因為活物的靈在輪子裡。
22 活物的頭上好像鋪展著茫茫的穹蒼，如同頂著耀眼的水晶。 23 穹蒼下四個活物伸展翅膀，彼此相對，各用兩個翅膀遮蔽身體。 24 他們移動時，翅膀發出的響聲如洪濤之聲，既像全能者的聲音，又像軍隊的呐喊。活物站住的時候，便將翅膀垂下。 25 他們站立垂下翅膀時，有聲音從他們頭頂的穹蒼之上傳來。
26 在他們頭頂的穹蒼之上彷彿有藍寶石的寶座，有一位形狀像人的高高坐在寶座上。 27 我看到祂的腰部以上好像燒紅發亮的金屬，好像有火四面環繞。腰部以下如同火焰。祂周圍有耀眼的光輝， 28 彷彿雨天雲中的彩虹。
這是耶和華榮耀的形像。我一看見，便俯伏在地，隨後聽見有說話的聲音。

Ezekiel 1
King James Version
1 Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I was among the captives by the river of Chebar, that the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God.
2 In the fifth day of the month, which was the fifth year of king Jehoiachin's captivity,
3 The word of the Lord came expressly unto Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans by the river Chebar; and the hand of the Lord was there upon him.
4 And I looked, and, behold, a whirlwind came out of the north, a great cloud, and a fire infolding itself, and a brightness was about it, and out of the midst thereof as the colour of amber, out of the midst of the fire.
5 Also out of the midst thereof came the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance; they had the likeness of a man.
6 And every one had four faces, and every one had four wings.
7 And their feet were straight feet; and the sole of their feet was like the sole of a calf's foot: and they sparkled like the colour of burnished brass.
8 And they had the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides; and they four had their faces and their wings.
9 Their wings were joined one to another; they turned not when they went; they went every one straight forward.
10 As for the likeness of their faces, they four had the face of a man, and the face of a lion, on the right side: and they four had the face of an ox on the left side; they four also had the face of an eagle.
11 Thus were their faces: and their wings were stretched upward; two wings of every one were joined one to another, and two covered their bodies.
12 And they went every one straight forward: whither the spirit was to go, they went; and they turned not when they went.
13 As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire, and like the appearance of lamps: it went up and down among the living creatures; and the fire was bright, and out of the fire went forth lightning.
14 And the living creatures ran and returned as the appearance of a flash of lightning.
15 Now as I beheld the living creatures, behold one wheel upon the earth by the living creatures, with his four faces.
16 The appearance of the wheels and their work was like unto the colour of a beryl: and they four had one likeness: and their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel in the middle of a wheel.
17 When they went, they went upon their four sides: and they turned not when they went.
18 As for their rings, they were so high that they were dreadful; and their rings were full of eyes round about them four.
19 And when the living creatures went, the wheels went by them: and when the living creatures were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up.
20 Whithersoever the spirit was to go, they went, thither was their spirit to go; and the wheels were lifted up over against them: for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels.
21 When those went, these went; and when those stood, these stood; and when those were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up over against them: for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels.
22 And the likeness of the firmament upon the heads of the living creature was as the colour of the terrible crystal, stretched forth over their heads above.
23 And under the firmament were their wings straight, the one toward the other: every one had two, which covered on this side, and every one had two, which covered on that side, their bodies.
24 And when they went, I heard the noise of their wings, like the noise of great waters, as the voice of the Almighty, the voice of speech, as the noise of an host: when they stood, they let down their wings.
25 And there was a voice from the firmament that was over their heads, when they stood, and had let down their wings.
26 And above the firmament that was over their heads was the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone: and upon the likeness of the throne was the likeness as the appearance of a man above upon it.
27 And I saw as the colour of amber, as the appearance of fire round about within it, from the appearance of his loins even upward, and from the appearance of his loins even downward, I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and it had brightness round about.
28 As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face, and I heard a voice of one that spake.
