Ezra 10
1 And while Ezra prayed, and made confession, weeping and falling down before the house of God, there were gathered to him out of Israel a very great congregation of men and women and children; for the people wept very much.
Torej ko je Ezra molil in ko je priznaval, jokal in se metal dol pred Božjo hišo, se je tam k njemu iz Izraela zbrala zelo velika skupnost mož, žena in otrok, kajti ljudstvo je zelo hudo jokalo.
2 And Shechaniah the son of Jehiel, of the sons of Elam, answered and said to Ezra, We have acted unfaithfully toward our God, and have taken foreign wives of the peoples of the land; yet now there is hope for Israel concerning this thing.
Jehiélov sin Šehanjája, eden izmed Elámovih sinov, je odgovoril in Ezru rekel: »Pregrešili smo se zoper svojega Boga in si jemali tuje žene izmed ljudstva dežele, vendar je sedaj v Izraelu upanje glede te stvari.
3 And now let us make a covenant with our God to put away all the wives, and such as are born of them, according to the counsel of [my] lord, and of those that tremble at the commandments of our God; and let it be done according to the law.
Sedaj torej sklenimo zavezo s svojim Bogom, da odslovimo vse žene in tiste, ki so se rodili od njih, glede na nasvet mojega gospoda in tistih, ki trepetajo ob zapovedi našega Boga. In to naj bo storjeno glede na postavo.
4 Arise, for this matter is incumbent on thee, and we will be with thee: be of good courage, and do [it].
Vstani, kajti ta zadeva pripada tebi. Tudi mi bomo s teboj. Bodi odločnega poguma in to naredi.«
5 Then Ezra arose, and made the chiefs of the priests, of the Levites, and of all Israel, to swear that they would do according to this word. And they swore.
Potem je Ezra vstal in pripravil vodilne duhovnike, Lévijevce in ves Izrael, da prisežejo, da bodo storili glede na to besedo. In so prisegli.
6 And Ezra arose from before the house of God, and went into the chamber of Jehohanan the son of Eliashib; and when he came thither, he ate no bread and drank no water; for he mourned because of the unfaithfulness of them that had been carried away.
Potem je Ezra vstal izpred Božje hiše in odšel v sobo Eljašíbovega sina Johanána. Ko je prišel tja, ni jedel kruha niti pil vode, kajti žaloval je zaradi prestopka tistih, ki so bili odvedeni proč.
7 And they made proclamation in Judah and Jerusalem to all the children of the captivity, that they should gather themselves together unto Jerusalem;
Naredili so razglas po vsej Judeji in Jeruzalemu, vsem otrokom iz ujetništva, da naj se skupaj zberejo v Jeruzalemu.
8 and that whosoever would not come within three days, according to the counsel of the princes and the elders, all his substance should be confiscated, and himself separated from the congregation of those that had been carried away.
In da kdorkoli ne bo hotel priti v treh dneh, glede na nasvet princev in starešin, bo vse njegovo imetje zaseženo in on sam oddvojen od skupnosti tistih, ki so bili odvedeni proč.
9 Then were all the men of Judah and Benjamin gathered together at Jerusalem within three days. It was the ninth month, on the twentieth of the month; and all the people sat in the open space of the house of God, trembling because of the matter, and because of the pouring rain.
Potem so se v treh dneh vsi možje iz Juda in Benjamina zbrali skupaj v Jeruzalemu. To je bil deveti mesec, na dvanajsti dan meseca, in vse ljudstvo je sedelo na ulici Božje hiše in trepetalo zaradi te zadeve in zaradi velikega dežja.
10 And Ezra the priest stood up and said to them, Ye have acted unfaithfully, and have taken foreign wives, to increase the trespass of Israel.
Duhovnik Ezra je vstal in jim rekel: »Pregrešili ste se in si vzeli tuje ženske, da povečate Izraelov prekršek.
11 And now make confession to Jehovah the God of your fathers, and do his pleasure, and separate yourselves from the peoples of the land, and from the foreign wives.
Zdaj torej naredite priznanje Gospodu, Bogu svojih očetov in storite njegovo voljo in se ločite od ljudstva dežele in od tujih žena.«
12 And the whole congregation answered and said with a loud voice, Yes, it is for us to do according to thy words.
Potem je vsa skupnost odgovorila in z močnim glasom rekla: »Kakor si rekel, tako moramo storiti.«
13 But the people are many, and it is a time of pouring rain, and it is not possible to stand without: neither is this a work for one day or two; for we are many that have transgressed in this thing.
Toda ljudstva je mnogo in to je čas obilnega dežja in mi nismo zmožni stati zunaj niti to ni delo enega dne ali dveh, kajti mnogo nas je, ki smo se pregrešili v tej stvari.
14 Let now our princes, while this matter is going on, stand for all the congregation, and let all those that have taken foreign wives in our cities come at the appointed times, and with them the elders of every city, and the judges thereof, until the fierce anger of our God be turned from us.
Naj sedaj naši voditelji vse skupnosti vstanejo in naj vsi, ki so si v naših mestih vzeli tuje žene, pridejo ob določenih časih in z njimi starešine iz vsakega mesta in njihovi sodniki, dokler kruti bes našega Boga zaradi te zadeve ne bo odvrnjen od nas.
15 Only Jonathan the son of Asahel and Jahzeiah the son of Tikvah stood up against this; and Meshullam and Shabbethai the Levite helped them.
Samo Asaélov sin Jonatan in Tikvájev sin Jahzejá sta bila zaposlena okoli te zadeve. Mešulám in Lévijevec Šabetáj pa sta jima pomagala.
16 And the children of the captivity did so. And Ezra the priest [and] certain of the chief fathers were separated according to their fathers' houses, and all of them [expressed] by name; and they sat down on the first day of the tenth month to examine the matter.
Otroci ujetništva so storili tako. Duhovnik Ezra z nekaterimi vodilnimi očeti, po hiši njihovih očetov in vsi izmed njih po njihovih imenih, so se oddvojili in se usedli na prvi dan desetega meseca, da preiščejo zadevo.
17 And they ended with all the men that had taken foreign wives by the first day of the first month.
In z vsemi možmi, ki so si vzeli tuje žene, so zaključili do prvega dne prvega meseca.
18 And among the sons of the priests there were found that had taken foreign wives, of the sons of Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and his brethren: Maaseiah, and Eliezer, and Jarib, and Gedaliah.
Med sinovi duhovnikov so bili najdeni, da so si vzeli tuje žene, namreč od Ješúvovih sinov Jocadákov sin in njegovi bratje Maasejá, Eliézer, Jaríb in Gedaljá.
19 And they gave their hand to send away their wives; and they offered a ram of the flock, as trespass-offering for their guilt.
Dali so svoje roke, da bodo odslovili svoje žene in ker so bili krivi, so darovali ovna od tropa za svoj prekršek.
