Ezra 10
1 While Ezra prayed and made this confession, weeping and falling facedown before the house of God, a very large assembly of Israelites—men, women, and children—gathered around him, and the people wept bitterly as well.
Hitia hi Ezra in Pathen Houin masanglang ngatna tolla amai bohkhup a, kap pum’a chonset phong’a ataopet hin Israel mipi lah a kon’in mihon tamtah pasal, numei chuleh chapangte geijin ahung kikhom’un lung natah in amatoh akapkhom taovin ahi.
2 Then Shecaniah son of Jehiel, an Elamite, said to Ezra: “We have been unfaithful to our God by marrying foreign women from the people of the land, yet in spite of this, there is hope for Israel.
Hichejou chun. Elam chilhah Jehiel chapa Shecaniah chun Ezra kommah hitin ahinsei tai, “Eiho hin I Pathennu masangah ikitah jou tapouve ajeh chu eihon hou neilou agamsunga cheng numeiho ikichenpi taove. Ahiyeng vang'in Israelte in kinepna aum nalaije.
3 So now let us make a covenant before our God to send away all the foreign wives and their children, according to the counsel of my lord and of those who tremble at the command of our God. Let it be done according to the Law.
Tun eihon I Pathen utoh kitepna khat neiju hitin hichea hou neilou ijiteuhi da-gam jengu hitin achateu pum’in soldoh jengu hite. Keihon nangma le Pathen daanthu nitna neiho thupeh hi jui tao vinge.
4 Get up, for this matter is your responsibility, and we will support you. Be strong and take action!”
Thoudoh inlang namopohna dungjuijin thil hohi suhtoh na dinga iti chal-lhah dingham neihil taovin. Keihohi nangma nungthopna dinga kahiuve hat’in lang hangtah in tong lhatan,” ahung tipeh tan ahi.
5 So Ezra got up and made the leading priests, Levites, and all Israel take an oath to do what had been said. And they took the oath.
Hiti chun Ezra adingdoh in thempu lamkaiho leh Levite chuleh Israel mipite jousen Shecaniah in ahin seibang chun boldingin kihahselna neiju hite atiuvin. Hiti chun kihahselna chu aneisoh kei taove.
6 Then Ezra withdrew from before the house of God and walked to the chamber of Jehohanan son of Eliashib. And while he stayed there, he ate no food and drank no water, because he was mourning over the unfaithfulness of the exiles.
Hijouchun Ezra in Pathen Houin masang chu adalhan Eliashib chapa Jehohanan kitipa insungdan achun aluttan ahi. Aman hiche munah chun anjong nelou, twijong donlouvin ageh khovah tan ahi. Amachu sohchang hung kileho kitahlou jeh in alungkham jeng nalaijin ahi.
7 And a proclamation was issued throughout Judah and Jerusalem that all the exiles should gather at Jerusalem.
Hichejou chun Judah leh Jerusalem gam pumpi sungah thuphon khat aphongdoh un sohchang hung kilekit jouse Jerusalem’a hung kikhom dingin thupeh anei taovin ahi.
8 Whoever failed to appear within three days would forfeit all his property, according to the counsel of the leaders and elders, and would himself be expelled from the assembly of the exiles.
Koi hileh nithum sunga hunglhung lou jouse chu, lamkai holeh upa hon gellhuhna aneijuleh amaho chu anei agou hou kichomding ahi tin aki gong’un ahi.
9 So within the three days, all the men of Judah and Benjamin assembled in Jerusalem, and on the twentieth day of the ninth month, all the people sat in the square at the house of God, trembling regarding this matter and because of the heavy rain.
Hiti chun it hum sungin Judah leh Benjamin mipite jouse chu Jerusalem ah ahung kikhom sohkei taovin ahi. Hichehi lha ko lhinna, nisom ni, nikho thilsoh ahi, mipiho jouse chu Pathen Houin mai tollhangah atousoh keijun, chule amaho chu athu khoh jehleh gojuh jeh a adap jeh chun akithing thing jengun ahi.
10 Then Ezra the priest stood up and said to them, “You have been unfaithful by marrying foreign women, adding to the guilt of Israel.
Hijou chun thempupa Ezra chu adingdoh in amaho komma chun aseitan ahi. “Nanghon chonset khohtah chu natongdoh taovin ahi. Hou neilouho numeiho nakichen piuvin Israel chonset nasuh pungbe taovin ahi.
11 Now, therefore, make a confession to the LORD, the God of your fathers, and do His will. Separate yourselves from the people of the land and from your foreign wives.”
Hijeh chun tuhin nanghon napu napateo Pakai Pathen komma chun nachonset phongun chuleh ama lungdei chu bollun. Hiche gamsung mite leh hounei lou numeiho’a kon’in hungpot doh un,” atin ahi.
12 And the whole assembly responded in a loud voice: “Truly we must do as you say!
Hijouchun akikhom mipi hochun O sangtah in asammun hiti hin ahin donbut un ahi, “Adih e, naseichu adih e, keihon nasei bang banga chun kaboldiu ahi!” atiuve.
13 But there are many people here, and it is the rainy season. We are not able to stay out in the open. Nor is this the work of one or two days, for we have transgressed greatly in this matter.
Hijouchun amahon aseibe uvin: “Hichehi nikhat ahilou leh ni ni sunga gahchai jengthei ahipoi ajeh chu hiche chonset khohtah thuahi mi tamtah natkha a ahitai. Tu gojuh laitah hin keiho katousot thei pouve.
14 Let our leaders represent the whole assembly. Then let everyone in our towns who has married a foreign woman come at an appointed time, together with the elders and judges of each town, until the fierce anger of our God in this matter is turned away from us.”
Kalamkai ho’uvin keiho jouse thalhengin hiche thuhi hin boltoh taohen. Koihile namdang numei kichenpi jouse chun phat kitep dungjuiyin, akhospi sung’a lamkaite le thutanho toh hung kilhon uhen. Chutileh I Pathen u lunghanna eihoa konna akitol mang ding ahi,” atiuve.
15 (Only Jonathan son of Asahel and Jahzeiah son of Tikvah, supported by Meshullam and Shabbethai the Levite, opposed this plan.)
Hiche tohgon chu Ashahel chapa Jonathan leh Tikvah chapa Jahzeiah tenin bou adeimo lhonin chuleh Meshullam leh Levi mi Shabethai in amani chu ajop lhonin adangsen vang aphatsah sohkeijin ahi.
16 So the exiles did as proposed. Ezra the priest selected men who were family heads, each of them identified by name, to represent their families. On the first day of the tenth month they launched the investigation,
Hitia chu achelhahna dingin hitihin agong’un ahi. Hichun Ezra in ama insung cheh thalheng dingin lamkai alhengdoh in hiche thalheng hochu amin cheh in ajihlut in ahi. Lhasom lhinna, ni masapen nin, lamkai hochu atoukhom’un hiche thu chu phatah in akholtoh pan un ahi.
17 and by the first day of the first month they had dealt with all the men who had married foreign women.
Akhovei kumthah kipat nikho chun hou neilou numei kichenpi ho jouse chu akholdoh sohkei taovin ahi.
18 Among the descendants of the priests who had married foreign women were found these descendants of Jeshua son of Jozadak and his brothers: Maaseiah, Eliezer, Jarib, and Gedaliah.
