1 And I saw, and behold, in the firmament that was over the heads of the cherubim, there appeared above them something like the sapphire stone, with the sight of the likeness of a throne.
1 Y MIRÉ, y he aquí en la expansión que había sobre la cabeza de los querubines como una piedra de zafiro, que parecía como semejanza de un trono que se mostró sobre ellos.
2 And he spoke to the man who was clothed with linen, and he said: “Enter, between the wheels that are under the cherubim, and fill your hand with the coals of fire that are between the cherubim, and pour them upon the city.” And he entered, in my sight.
2 Y habló al varón vestido de lienzos, y díjole: Entra en medio de las ruedas debajo de los querubines, é hinche tus manos de carbones encendidos de entre los querubines, y derrama sobre la ciudad. Y entró á vista mía.
3 Now the cherubim were standing before the right side of the house, when the man entered. And a cloud filled the inner court.
3 Y los querubines estaban á la mano derecha de la casa cuando este varón entró; y la nube henchía el atrio de adentro.
4 And the glory of the Lord was lifted up, from above the cherubim, to the threshold of the house. And the house was filled with the cloud. And the court was filled with the splendor of the glory of the Lord.
4 Y la gloria de Jehová se levantó del querubín al umbral de la puerta; y la casa fué llena de la nube, y el atrio se llenó del resplandor de la gloria de Jehová.
5 And the sound of the wings of the cherubim was heard even in the outer court, like the voice of Almighty God speaking.
5 Y el estruendo de las alas de los querubines se oía hasta el atrio de afuera, como la voz del Dios Omnipotente cuando habla.
6 And when he had instructed the man who was clothed with linen, saying, “Take fire from the midst of the wheels that are between the cherubim,” he entered and stood next to the wheel.
6 Y aconteció que, como mandó al varón vestido de lienzos, diciendo: Toma fuego de entre las ruedas, de entre los querubines, él entró, y paróse entre las ruedas.
7 And one cherub extended his hand, from the midst of the cherubim, to the fire that was between the cherubim. And he took and gave it into the hands of the one who was clothed with linen, and he accepted it and went forth.
7 Y un querubín extendió su mano de entre los querubines al fuego que estaba entre los querubines, y tomó, y puso en las palmas del que estaba vestido de lienzos, el cual lo tomó y salióse.
8 And there appeared amid the cherubim the likeness of the hand of a man, under their wings.
8 Y apareció en los querubines la figura de una mano humana debajo de sus alas.
9 And I saw, and behold, there were four wheels beside the cherubim. One wheel was next to one cherub, and another wheel was next to another cherub. And the appearance of the wheels was like the sight of the chrysolite stone.
9 Y miré, y he aquí cuatro ruedas junto á los querubines, junto á cada querubín una rueda; y el aspecto de las ruedas era como el de piedra de Tarsis.
10 And in their appearance, each one of the four were similar, as if a wheel were in the midst of a wheel.
10 Cuanto al parecer de ellas, las cuatro eran de una forma, como si estuviera una en medio de otra.
11 And when they went, they advanced in four parts. And they did not turn as they went. Instead, to the place to which they were inclined to go at first, the rest also followed, and they did not turn back.
11 Cuando andaban, sobre sus cuatro costados andaban: no se tornaban cuando andaban, sino que al lugar adonde se volvía el primero, en pos de él iban; ni se tornaban cuando andaban.
12 And their entire body, with their necks and their hands and their wings and the circles, were full of eyes all around the four wheels.
12 Y toda su carne, y sus costillas, y sus manos, y sus alas, y las ruedas, lleno estaba de ojos alrededor en sus cuatro ruedas.
13 And in my hearing, he called these wheels: “constantly changing.”
13 A las ruedas, oyéndolo yo, se les gritaba: ¡Rueda!
14 Now each one had four faces. One face was the face of a cherub, and the second face was the face of a man, and in the third was the face of a lion, and in the fourth was the face of an eagle.
14 Y cada uno tenía cuatro rostros. El primer rostro era de querubín; el segundo rostro, de hombre; el tercer rostro, de león; el cuarto rostro, de águila.
15 And the cherubim were lifted up. This is the living creature, which I had seen beside the river Chebar.
15 Y levantáronse los querubines; este es el animal que vi en el río de Chebar.
16 And when the cherubim advanced, the wheels also went beside them. And when the cherubim lifted up their wings in order to be raised up from the earth, the wheels did not remain behind, but they also were beside them.
16 Y cuando andaban los querubines, andaban las ruedas junto con ellos; y cuando los querubines alzaban sus alas para levantarse de la tierra, las ruedas también no se volvían de junto á ellos.
17 When they were standing, these stood still. And when they were lifted up, these were lifted up. For the spirit of life was in them.
17 Cuando se paraban ellos, parábanse ellas, y cuando ellos se alzaban, alzábanse con ellos: porque el espíritu de los animales estaba en ellas.
18 And the glory of the Lord went forth from the threshold of the temple, and stood above the cherubim.
18 Y la gloria de Jehová se salió de sobre el umbral de la casa, y paró sobre los querubines.
19 And the cherubim, lifting up their wings, were raised up from the earth in my sight. And as they went away, the wheels also followed. And it stood at the entrance to the east gate of the house of the Lord. And the glory of the God of Israel was over them.
19 Y alzando los querubines sus alas, levantáronse de la tierra delante de mis ojos: cuando ellos salieron, también las ruedas al lado de ellos: y paráronse á la entrada de la puerta oriental de la casa de Jehová, y la gloria del Dios de Israel estaba arriba sobre ellos.
20 This is the living creature, which I saw under the God of Israel beside the river Chebar. And I understood that they were cherubim.
20 Este era el animal que vi debajo del Dios de Israel en el río de Chebar; y conocí que eran querubines.
21 Each one had four faces, and each one had four wings. And the likeness of the hand of a man was under their wings.
21 Cada uno tenía cuatro rostros, y cada uno cuatro alas, y figuras de manos humanas debajo de sus alas.
22 And, concerning the appearance of their faces, these were the same faces that I had seen beside the river Chebar, and the gaze and force of each one of them was to go before his face.
22 Y la figura de sus rostros era la de los rostros que vi junto al río de Chebar, su [mismo] parecer y su ser; cada uno caminaba en derecho de su rostro.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
He sees, like Esaias, the Lord sitting upon a throne high and lifted up; he sees, like Ezekiel, Him who is above the Cherubim; he sees like Daniel, ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands; and the man, who is so little, beholds the beginning of the world, and knows the end of the world, and the …
