Esela 9
1 Amalalu, Isala: ili fi ouligisu dunu mogili da nama sia: na misini, gobele salasu dunu amola Lifai dunu da dunu fi ilima na: iyado soge amo A: mone, Moua: be, Idibidi, Ga: ina: ne dunu, Hidaide dunu, Belisaide dunu, Yebiusaide dunu amola A: moulaide dunu ilima hame afafasu ilia sia: i. Ilia da amo dunu ilia wadela: idafa hou hamosu amoma fa: no bobogei dagoi.
Now when these things were done, the princes came near to me, saying, “The people of Israel, the priests, and the Levites have not separated themselves from the peoples of the lands, following their abominations, even those of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Jebusites, the Ammonites, the Moabites, the Egyptians, and the Amorites.
2 Yu dunu da ga fi uda labeba: le, Gode Ea hadigi fi dunu da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: i. Be Yu ouligisu dunu amola ouligisu hina dunu, ilia amola da ga fi uda laiba: le, ilia da amo wadela: i hou amo ganodini baligili wadela: i hamosu dunu agoai ba: i.
For they have taken of their daughters for themselves and for their sons, so that the holy offspring have mixed themselves with the peoples of the lands. Yes, the hand of the princes and rulers has been chief in this trespass.”
3 Na da amo sia: nababeba: le, se bagade nabi. Na abula gadelale, na dialuma hinabo amola mayabo mogili golole fasili, da: i dioi bagadewane esalu.
When I heard this thing, I tore my garment and my robe, and pulled the hair out of my head and of my beard, and sat down confounded.
4 Na da amanewane da: i dione esaloba, daeya galu Godema gobele salasu da doaga: i. Amalalu, dunu da na esaloba, na guba: le sisiga: le aligi. Ilia da Isala: ili Godema bagade beda: i. Bai Gode da mugululi asi buhagi dunu ilia wadela: i hou ba: i dagoi, amola Ea sia: ilia da nabi.
Then everyone who trembled at the words of the God of Israel were assembled to me because of the trespass of the exiles; and I sat confounded until the evening offering.
5 Daeya gobele salasu hou da doaga: loba, na da ni musa: udigili esalua amoga da: i dione esalu, amoga wa: legadole, amola na abula gadelai ga: i amola na da muguni bugili, na Hina Godema lobo ligia gadole, Ema sia: ne gadoi.
At the evening offering I rose up from my humiliation, even with my garment and my robe torn; and I fell on my knees, and spread out my hands to the LORD my God;
6 Na da amane sia: i, “Na Gode! Na da bagadewane gogosia: iba: le, Dia hadigi amoma na dialuma molole gadomu hamedei agoane ba: sa. Ninia wadela: i hou da bagadedafa, fedege agoane bi hamone ninia dialuma baligili muagado heda: sa.
and I said, “My God, I am ashamed and blush to lift up my face to you, my God, for our iniquities have increased over our head, and our guiltiness has grown up to the heavens.
7 Musa: aowalali ilia fifi mana, wali wadela: i hou bu baligili bagadedafa ninia hamonana. Ninia wadela: i houba: le, ninia hina bagade dunu amola ninia gobele salasu dunu da ga fi hina bagade ilia baiga dafai dagoi. Ga fi dunu da ninia fi dunu medole legele, ilia liligi wamolai amola mogili udigili hawa: hamomusa: mugululi oule asi. Ninia wadela: i hou hamoiba: le, bagadewane gogosiasu, amola waha da amomane diala. Ninia Hina Gode!
Since the days of our fathers we have been exceedingly guilty to this day; and for our iniquities we, our kings, and our priests have been delivered into the hand of the kings of the lands, to the sword, to captivity, to plunder, and to confusion of face, as it is this day.
8 Waha, eso fonobahadi amoga, Di da ninima asigiba: le, ninia se iasu diasuga fisili masa: ne gadili asunasi, wali ninia da Dia hadigidafa soge amoga gaga: iwane esala. Di da wali ninima hadigi ganodini udigili lalusu amola gaheabolo esalusu ninima i dagoi.
Now for a little moment grace has been shown from the LORD our God, to leave us a remnant to escape, and to give us a stake in his holy place, that our God may lighten our eyes, and revive us a little in our bondage.
9 Nini da udigili se iasu diasua esalebe hawa: hamosu dunu agoai galu, be di da nini se iasu diasua esalebe hawa: hamoma: ne hame yolesi. Di da Besia hina bagade dunu ilia asigi dawa: su olelebeba: le, ilia da ninima asigisu. Ilia da nini hame fane legei. Be ninia da Dia Debolo musa: wadela: lesi dagoi, amo bu gagumusa: amola ninia Yuda soge amola Yelusaleme amo ganodini gaga: iwane esaloma: ne, ilia da logo doasi dagoi.
For we are bondservants; yet our God has not forsaken us in our bondage, but has extended loving kindness to us in the sight of the kings of Persia, to revive us, to set up the house of our God, and to repair its ruins, and to give us a wall in Judah and in Jerusalem.
10 Be wali, Na Gode! Amo hou da doaga: beba: le, ninia da adi sia: ma: bela: ? Ninia da Dia sema amola hamoma: ne sia: i bu hame nabasu.
“Now, our God, what shall we say after this? For we have forsaken your commandments,
11 Di da ilima olelebeba: le, Dia hawa: hamosu dunu amo balofede dunu, da amo sema amola hamoma: ne sia: i ninima olelei. Ilia da ninima adoi amane, soge amo ninia da gesowale fimu da ledo bagade soge. Ga: ina: ne dunu fi amo ganodini da wadela: i hou bagade hamobeba: le, soge huluanedafa da ledo bagade ba: i.
which you have commanded by your servants the prophets, saying, ‘The land to which you go to possess is an unclean land through the uncleanness of the peoples of the lands, through their abominations, which have filled it from one end to another with their filthiness.
12 Ilia da ninima amane sia: i, ‘Dilia da amo soge ganodini hahawane esalumusa: dawa: sea, amola amo ganodini diligaga fi da eso huluane hahawane esaloma: ne ilima imunusa: dawa: sea, dilia amo soge fi ilia uda maedafa lama, amola ilia muni labe hou amola hou huluanedafa mae fidima,’ balofede dunu da amane sia: i.
Now therefore don’t give your daughters to their sons. Don’t take their daughters to your sons, nor seek their peace or their prosperity forever, that you may be strong and eat the good of the land, and leave it for an inheritance to your children forever.’
13 Ninia da wadela: i hou bagade hamobeba: le, se dabe iasu bagade lai. Be ninia Gode, ninia dawa: Di da nini hame fane legei, amola ninia wadela: i hou se dabe iasu defele ninima hame i.
“After all that has come on us for our evil deeds and for our great guilt, since you, our God, have punished us less than our iniquities deserve, and have given us such a remnant,
14 Amaiba: le, ninia da abuliba: le da Dia hamoma: ne sia: i bu mae nabawane, amo wadela: i fi ilia uda lama: bela: ? Agoane hamosea, Dia ougi da heda: sea, nini huluane wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu. Dunu afadafa esalebe hamedafa ba: mu.
shall we again break your commandments, and join ourselves with the peoples that do these abominations? Wouldn’t you be angry with us until you had consumed us, so that there would be no remnant, nor any to escape?
15 Isala: ili Hina Gode! Di da moloidafa fofada: su dunu! Di da nini bogoma: ne hame fane legei! Ninia wadela: i hou Dima fofada: ne iaha! Ninia da Dia hadigi amoga misunu da ninima hamedei liligi agoai,” Esela da amane sia: ne gadoi.
LORD, the God of Israel, you are righteous; for we are left a remnant that has escaped, as it is today. Behold, we are before you in our guiltiness; for no one can stand before you because of this.”
