Ezra 10
1 Whiles Ezra prayed thus, and confessed himselfe weeping, and falling downe before the house of God, there assembled vnto him of Israel a very great Congregation of men and women and children: for the people wept with a great lamentation.
Na, I a Etera e inoi ana, e whaki hara ana, me te tangi, me te rutu i a ia ki mua i te whare o te Atua, na, nui atu te hui i rupeke ki a ia i roto i a Iharaira, nga tane, nga wahine, nga tamariki: nui atu hoki te tangi i tangi ai te iwi.
2 Then Shechaniah the sonne of Iehiel one of the sonnes of Elam answered, and sayd to Ezra, We haue trespassed against our God, and haue taken strange wiues of the people of the land, yet nowe there is hope in Israel concerning this.
Na ka oho a Hekania tama a Tehiere, ko tetahi nei ia o nga tama a Erama, ka mea ki a Etera, Kua he matou ki to tatou Atua, kua tango i nga wahine ke, i a nga iwi o te whenua. Tenei ano ia he mea e marama ai nga whakaaro o Iharaira ki tenei mea.
3 Now therfore let vs make a couenant with our God, to put away all the wiues (and such as are borne of them) according to the counsell of the Lord, and of those that feare the commandements of our God, and let it be done according to the Lawe.
Na kia whakaritea he kawenata ki to tatou Atua, kia whakarerea aua wahine katoa me a ratou tamariki, kia rite ai ki te whakaaro i whakatakotoria e toku ariki, e te hunga ano e wehi ana i te whakahau a to tatou Atua: kia rite ano te meatanga ki ta te ture.
4 Arise: for the matter belogeth vnto thee: we also wil be with thee: be of comfort and do it.
Whakatika, mau hoki te mahi; a ko matou hei hoa mou: kia uaua, meatia.
5 Then arose Ezra, and caused the chiefe Priestes, the Leuites, and all Israel, to sweare that they would doe according to this worde. So they sware.
Katahi ka whakatika a Etera, a whakaoatitia ana e ia nga rangatira o nga tohunga, o nga Riwaiti, o Iharaira Katoa, kia meatia tenei mea e ratou. A oati ana ratou.
6 And Ezra rose vp from before the house of God, and went into the chamber of Iohanan the sonne of Eliashib: he went euen thither, but he did eate neither bread, nor drunke water: for he mourned, because of the transgression of them of the captiuitie.
Katahi a Etera ka whakatika i mua i te whare o te Atua, a haere ana ki te ruma o Iehohanana tama a Eriahipi. A, no tona taenga ki reira, kihai ia i kai taro, kihai i inu wai; e pouri ana hoki ki te he o te hunga i whakaraua.
7 And they caused a proclamation to goe throughout Iudah and Ierusalem, vnto all them of the captiuitie, that they should assemble themselues vnto Ierusalem.
Na ka karanga nui, puta noa i Hura, i Hiruharama, ki nga tama katoa o te whakarau, kia huihui ki Hiruharama.
8 And whosoeuer woulde not come within three dayes according to the counsel of the Princes and Elders, all his substance should be forfait, and he should be separate from the Congregation of them of the captiuitie.
Na, ko te tangata e kore e tae mai i nga ra e toru, i ta nga rangatira ratou ko nga kaumatua i whakaaro ai, ka murua putia ona rawa katoa, a ka motuhia ia i roto i te whakaminenga o nga whakarau.
9 Then all the men of Iudah and Beniamin assembled theselues vnto Ierusalem within three dayes, which was the twentieth day of the ninth moneth, and all the people sate in the streete of the house of God, trembling for this matter, and for the raine.
Na ko te huihuinga mai o nga tangata katoa o Hura, o Pineamine ki Hiruharama i roto i aua ra e toru; ko te iwa tenei o nga marama, i te rua tekau o te marama. Na noho ana te iwi katoa i te marae o te whare o te Atua; wiri ana ratou, he whakaaro k i tenei mea, he nui ano hoki te ua.
10 And Ezra the Priest stoode vp, and said vnto them, Ye haue transgressed, and haue taken strange wiues, to increase the trespasse of Israel.
Na ka whakatika a Etera tohunga, ka mea ki a ratou, Kua he koutou, kua marenatia ki nga wahine ke, na kua neke ake te he o Iharaira.
11 Now therefore giue praise vnto the Lord God of your fathers, and do his will, and separate your selues from the people of the land, and from the strange wiues.
Na whakina atu nga he ki a Ihowa, ki te Atua o o koutou matua, meatia hoki tana i pai ai; motuhia mai hoki koutou i roto i nga iwi o te whenua, i nga wahine ke hoki.
12 And all the Congregation answered, and sayd with a loude voyce, So will we do according to thy wordes vnto vs.
Na ka whakahokia e te iwi katoa, he nui o ratou reo ki te mea, Ka rite ki tau kupu ta matou e mea ai.
13 But the people are many, and it is a raynie weather, and we are not able to stande without, neither is it the worke of one day or two: for we are many that haue offended in this thing.
Otiia he tokomaha te iwi, he wa ua nui hoki tenei; e kore ano matou e kaha ki te tu i waho, ehara hoki tenei i te mahi mo te ra kotahi, mo nga ra e rua ranei: he nui rawa hoki to matou he i tenei mea.
14 Let our rulers stand therefore before all the Congregation, and let all them which haue taken strange wiues in our cities, come at the time appoynted, and with them the Elders of euery citie and the Iudges thereof, til the fierce wrath of our God for this matter turne away from vs.
Na me whakarite o tatou rangatira mo te huihui katoa, a me haere mai i nga wa e whakaritea te hunga katoa kua marena ki nga wahine ke i o tatou pa, ratou ko nga kaumatua o tenei pa, o tenei pa, me nga kaiwhakawa o reira, kia tahuri atu ra ano i a tatou te riri kaha o to tatou Atua, a kia tutuki ra ano tenei mea.
15 Then were appoynted Ionathan the sonne of Asah-el, and Iahaziah the sonne of Tikuah ouer this matter, and Meshullam and Shabbethai the Leuites helped them.
Ko Honatana anake tama a Atahere raua ko Tahatia tama a Tikiwa i tu atu ki tenei mea; a ko o raua hoa ko Mehurama raua ko Hapetai Riwaiti.
16 And they of the captiuitie did so, and departed, euen Ezra the Priest, and the men that were chiefe fathers to the familie of their fathers by name, and sate downe in the first day of the tenth moneth to examine the matter.
Na i pena hoki nga tama o te whakarau. A ka wehea a Etera tohunga me etahi upoko o nga whare o nga matua no tenei whare, no tenei whare, o o ratou matua, he mea karanga katoa o ratou ingoa; a noho ana ratou i te ra tuatahi o te tekau o nga maram a hei rapu i te tikanga o tenei mea.
17 And vntill the first day of the first moneth they were finishing the businesse with al the men that had taken strange wiues.
Poto rawa ake nga tangata katoa i marena ki nga wahine ke, ko te ra tuatahi o te tuatahi o nga marama.
18 And of the sonnes of the Priests there were men founde, that had taken strange wiues, to wit, of the sonnes of Ieshua, the sonne of Iozadak, and of his brethren, Maaseiah, Aeliezer, and Iarib and Gedaliah.
Na kua mau etahi o nga tama a nga tohunga he mea marena ki nga wahine ke; ara no nga tama a Hehua tama a Iohereke ratou ko ona teina, ko Maaheia, ko Erietere, ko Iaripi, ko Keraria.
19 And they gaue their hads, that they would put away their wiues, and they that had trespassed, gaue a ramme for their trespasse.
Na ka tukua mai o ratou ringa, mo a ratou wahine kia whakarerea; a, ka he nei ratou, ka tapaea he hipi toa o te kahui mo to ratou he.
