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.
A kad se moljaše Jezdra i ispovijedaše grijehe plaèuæi i ležeæi pred domom Božjim, skupi se k njemu iz Izrailja veliko mnoštvo ljudi i žena i djece; i narod plakaše veoma.
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.
Tada progovori Sehanija sin Jehilov od sinova Elamovijeh i reèe Jezdri: mi smo sagriješili Bogu svojemu što uzesmo žene tuðinke iz naroda zemaljskih; ali još ima nadanja Izrailju za to.
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.
Da uèinimo sada zavjet Bogu svojemu, da otpustimo sve žene i porod njihov po volji Gospodnjoj i onijeh koji se boje zapovijesti Boga našega, i po zakonu neka bude.
4 Get up, for this matter is your responsibility, and we will support you. Be strong and take action!”
Ustani, jer je ovo tvoj posao; a mi æemo biti uza te, budi slobodan i radi.
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.
Tada usta Jezdra, i zakle glavare sveštenièke i Levite i svega Izrailja da uèine tako. I zakleše se.
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.
Potom usta Jezdra ispred doma Božijega, i otide u klijet Joanana sina Eliasivova; i ušavši ne jede hljeba niti vode pi, jer tužaše radi prijestupa onijeh koji biše u ropstvu.
7 And a proclamation was issued throughout Judah and Jerusalem that all the exiles should gather at Jerusalem.
Potom oglasiše po Judeji i Jerusalimu svijem koji se vratiše iz ropstva, da se skupe u Jerusalim,
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.
A ko ne bi došao za tri dana po dogovoru knezovskom i starješinskom, da se sve imanje njegovo razaspe a sam da se odluèi od zbora onijeh koji se vratiše iz ropstva.
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.
Tako se skupiše svi ljudi od Jude i Venijamina u Jerusalim za tri dana, mjeseca devetoga. I sjeðaše sav narod na ulici pred domom Božjim dršæuæi radi te stvari i od dažda.
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.
Tada ustavši Jezdra sveštenik reèe im: vi sagriješiste što se oženiste tuðinkama, te umnožiste krivicu Izrailjevu.
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.”
Zato sada ispovjedite se Gospodu Bogu otaca svojih, i uèinite volju njegovu, i odvojte se od naroda zemaljskih i žena tuðinaka.
12 And the whole assembly responded in a loud voice: “Truly we must do as you say!
I sav zbor odgovori i reèe iza glasa: kako nam kaza uèiniæemo.
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.
Ali naroda ima mnogo i ide dažd, ne može se stajati napolju, a taj posao nije za jedan dan ni za dva, jer nas ima mnogo koji sagriješismo u tom.
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.”
Da se odrede knezovi naši iz svega zbora, pa koji su god u gradovima našim oženjeni tuðinkama neka dolaze u odreðeno vrijeme i s njima starješine svakoga grada i sudije dokle ne odvratimo od sebe žestoki gnjev Boga svojega za tu stvar.
15 (Only Jonathan son of Asahel and Jahzeiah son of Tikvah, supported by Meshullam and Shabbethai the Levite, opposed this plan.)
I odreðen bi na to Jonatan sin Asailov i Jazija sin Tekujev; a Mesulam i Savetaj Leviti pomagaše im.
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,
I uèiniše tako koji se vratiše iz ropstva. I odvojiše se Jezdra sveštenik i glavari domova otaèkih po domovima otaca svojih, svi poimence, i sjedoše prvoga dana desetoga mjeseca da izviðaju stvar.
17 and by the first day of the first month they had dealt with all the men who had married foreign women.
I do prvoga dana prvoga mjeseca svršiše sa svima onima koji se bijahu oženili tuðinkama.
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.
A naðoše se izmeðu sinova sveštenièkih oženjeni tuðinkama: izmeðu sinova Isusa sina Josedekova i braæe njegove: Masija i Elijezer i Jariv i Gedalija;
19 They pledged to send their wives away, and for their guilt they presented a ram from the flock as a guilt offering.
I dadoše ruke da æe pustiti žene svoje; i koji bijahu zgriješili prinesoše po jednoga ovna za krivicu svoju;
