Ezra 10

1 So when Esdras [had] prayed, and when he [had] confessed, weeping and praying before the house of God, a very great assembly of Israel came together to him, men and women and youths; for the people wept, and wept aloud.

Ke pacl se Ezra el suwoli ac pre ye mutun Tempul, ac tung ac fahkak ma koluk inge nukewa, sie u lulap lun mwet Israel, (mukul, mutan, ac tulik) elos fahsreni raunella ke tung mwemelil.

2 And Sechenias the son of Jeel, of the sons of Elam, answered and said to Esdras, We have broken covenant with our God, and have taken strange wives of the nations of the land: yet now there is patience [of hope] to Israel concerning this thing.

Na Shecaniah wen natul Jehiel, sin fwil natul Elam, el fahk nu sel Ezra, “Kut sifacna kunausla inmasrlosr ac God ke kut payuk nu sin mutan sac. Tusruktu finne ouinge, srakna oasr finsrak lun Israel.

3 Now then let us make a covenant with our God, to put away all the wives, and their offspring, as thou shalt advise:

Inge kut enenu in orala sie wulela ku nu sin God lasr lah kut ac supwalik mutan inge ac tulik natulos in som liki kut. Kut fah oru ma kom, ac elos ngia su sunakin ma sap lun God, fahk nu sesr in oru. Kut ac oru oana ma sapkinyuk nu sesr in Ma Sap lun God.

4 arise, and alarm them with the commands of our God; and let [it] be done according to the law. Rise up, for the matter [is] upon thee; and we [are] with thee: be strong and do.

Ma kunom in oru ouinge. Kut ac wi kom na, ke ma inge tuyak ac oru ma kom ac oru an.”

5 Then Esdras arose, and caused the rulers, the priests, and Levites, and all Israel, to swear that they would do according to this word: and they swore.

Ouinge Ezra el tuyak ac sapkin tuh mwet kol inmasrlon mwet tol ac mwet Levi, ac mwet Israel nukewa saya, in fulahk tuh elos fah oru oana kas lal Shecaniah.

6 And Esdras rose up from before the house of God, and went to the treasury of Joanan the son of Elisub; he even went thither: he ate no bread, and drank no water; for he mourned over the unfaithfulness [of them] of the captivity.

Na el som liki mutun Tempul ac utyak nu ke infukil lal Jehohanan wen natul Eliashib, ac muta we fong fon se, ac tungi orekma koluk lun mwet sruoh. El tia mongo ku nim kutena ma.

7 And they made proclamation throughout Juda and Jerusalem to all the children of the captivity, that they should assemble at Jerusalem, [saying],

Sie kas supweyukelik nu yen nukewa in acn Jerusalem ac Judah, tuh elos nukewa su foloko liki sruoh fah osun in Jerusalem,

8 Every one who shall not arrive within three days, as [is] the counsel of the rulers and the elders, all his substance shall be forfeited, and he shall be separated from the congregation of the captivity.

fal nu ke sap ku lun mwet kol lun mwet uh. Fin oasr kutena su tia tuku ke lusen len tolu, ma lalos nukewa fah itukla lukelos, ac elos fah tia sifil sie sin mwet in u se inge.

9 So all the men of Juda and Benjamin assembled at Jerusalem within the three days. This [was] the ninth month: on the twentieth day of the month all the people sat down in the street of the house of the Lord, because of their alarm concerning the word, and because of the storm.

Inmasrlon len tolu ah, ke len aklongoul in malem akeu, mukul nukewa su muta in acn lun Judah ac Benjamin elos tuku nu Jerusalem ac toeni in acn mwesas lun Tempul. Len sac af na upa, ac mwet nukewa rarrar ke sripen oyohu len an, oayapa ke sripa na yohk se lun tukeni sac.

10 And Esdras the priest arose, and said to them, Ye have broken covenant, and have taken strange wives, to add to the trespass of Israel.

Ezra mwet tol el tuyak ac kaskas nu selos. El fahk, “Kowos mwet tia pwaye in lulalfongi la, ac ke kowos payuk nu sin mutan sac kowos sang mwata nu sin Israel.

11 Now therefore give praise to the Lord God of our fathers, and do that which is pleasing in his sight: and separate yourselves from the peoples of the land, and from the strange wives.

Inge, fahkak ma koluk lowos nu sin LEUM GOD lun mwet matu lowos, ac oru ma El insewowo kac. Srikowosla liki mwetsac su muta in acn sesr, ac sisla mutan sac kiowos.”

12 Then all the congregation answered and said, This thy word [is] powerful upon us to do it.

Mwet uh wowoyak ac topuk, “Kut ac oru ma nukewa ma kom fahk an.”

13 But the people [is] numerous, and the season [is] stormy, and there is no power to stand without, and the work is more than enough for one day or for two; for we have greatly sinned in this matter.

Tusruktu elos tafwela ke kas inge, “Pusla mwet ke u se inge, ac af uh upa. Kut tia ku in tu ouinge likinum uh. Ma se inge tia ma ac ku in orekla ke len se ku luo, mweyen puslana sesr oasr ke ma koluk se inge.

14 Let now our rulers stand, and for all those in our cities who have taken strange wives, let them come at appointed times, and with them elders from every several city, and judges, to turn away the fierce wrath of our God from us concerning this matter.

Lela mwet kol lasr inge in muta Jerusalem ac orekma ke elya se inge. Na lela kutena mwet su oasr mutan sac se kia in tuku ke pacl se oakwuk nu sel, wi mwet kol ac mwet nununku lun siti sel. Fin ouinge, na mulat lun God ke ouiya se inge ac fah forla liki kut.”

15 Only Jonathan the son of Asael, and Jazias the son of Thecoe [were] with me concerning this; and Mesollam, and Sabbathai the Levite helped them.

Wangin sie lain lemlem sac, sayal Jonathan wen natul Asahel, ac Jahzeiah wen natul Tikvah, su eis kasreyuk sel Meshullam ac Shabbethai, sie mwet Levi.

16 And the children of the captivity did thus: and Esdras the priest, and heads of families according to [their] house were separated, and all by their names, for they returned in the first day of the tenth month to search out the matter.

Mwet nukewa su foloko liki sruoh elos insese nu ke lemlem sac. Ouinge Ezra mwet tol el srisrngiya mwet inmasrlon sifen sou uh, ac simusla inelos kais sie. Ke len se meet in malem se aksingoul, elos mutawauk in mukuikui ke sukok lalos,

17 And they made an end with all the men who had taken strange wives by the first day of the first month.

na inmasrlon malem tolu, elos konauk mukul nukewa su oasr mutan sac kia.

18 And there were found [some] of the sons of the priests who had taken strange wives: of the sons of Jesus the son of Josedec, and his brethren; Maasia, and Eliezer, and Jarib, and Gadalia.

Pa inge inen mukul su oasr mutan sac kia: [Mwet tol], simla ke sou: Ke sou lulap lal Joshua ac tamulel wial, wen natul Jehozadak: Maaseiah, Eliezer, Jarib, ac Gedaliah.

19 And they pledged themselves to put away their wives, and [offered] a ram of the flock for a trespass-offering because of their trespass.

Elos wulela in sisla mutan kialos, ac elos sang sheep mukul soko in mwe kisa ke ma koluk lalos.
