< Ezra 9 >
1 And when these things were finished, the princes drew near to me, saying, The people of Israel, and the priests, and the Levites, have not separated themselves from the people of the lands in their abominations, [even] the Chananite, the Ethite, the Pherezite, the Jebusite, the Ammonite, the Moabite, and the Moserite and the Amorite.
Hathnukkhu, kahrawikungnaw ni Isarelnaw hoi vaihmanaw, Levihnaw hoi ram thung kaawmnaw hoi a kambawng awh teh Kanaan, Hit, Periz, Jebusit, Ammon, Moab, Izip taminaw hoi Amor taminaw panuettho e hno a sak awh.
2 For they have taken of their daughters for themselves and their sons; and the holy seed has passed among the nations of the lands, and the hand of the rulers [has been] first in this transgression.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, a canu hoi a capanaw a kâokhai sak awh. Hat toteh, ka thoung e cati teh ram thung kaawmnaw hoi a kâkalawt toe. Kahrawikungnaw hoi lawkcengkungnaw ni doeh a kamtawng awh, telah ati awh.
3 And when I heard this thing, I tore my garments, and trembled, and plucked [some] of the hairs of my head and of my beard, and sat down mourning.
Hote kong ka thai navah ka angki hoi ka hni ka phi teh ka sam hoi ka pâkhamuen ka phawk teh ngaihmang lah sut ka tahung.
4 Then there assembled to me all that followed the word of the God of Israel, on account of the transgression of the captivity; and I remained mourning until the evening sacrifice.
Hahoi, san dawk hoi ka hlout e taminaw e yon kecu dawk Isarel Cathut e lawk ka ngai e taminaw teh kai koe a tho awh teh tangmin lah thuengnae tueng totouh sut ka tahung.
5 And at the evening sacrifice I rose up from my humiliation; and when I had tore my garments, then I trembled, and I bow myself on my knees, and spread out my hands to the Lord God,
Hahoi tangmin thuengnae tueng nah ka angki hoi ka hni ka phi e hoi kathâw teh, ka khok ka cuengkhuem laihoi ka BAWIPA Cathut koe lah kut ka dâw.
6 and I said, O Lord, I am ashamed and confounded, O my God, to lift up my face to you: for our transgressions have abounded over our head, and our trespasses have increased even to heaven.
Oe ka Cathut nang koe kamlang e kaya teh ka minhmai koung paling toe. Oe ka Cathut kaimouh ni ka sakpayon e naw teh kamamouh e lû hlak a rasang teh, yonpennae teh kalvan totouh a pha toe.
7 From the days of our fathers we have been in a great trespass until this day: and because of our iniquities we, and our kings, and our children, have been delivered into the hand of the kings of the Gentiles by the sword, and by captivity, and by spoil, and with shame of our face, as at this day.
Mintoenaw koehoi kamtawng teh atu totouh yonpen e lah ka o awh. Kaimouh ka yon kecu dawk siangpahrangnaw vaihmanaw hoi kamamouh atu totouh ramlouk e siangpahrangnaw kut dawk ka pha awh teh, tahloi hoi theinae, santoungnae lawpnae, yeirainae kâhmo awh.
8 And now our God has dealt mercifully with us, so as to leave us to escape, and to give us an establishment in the place of his sanctuary, to enlighten our eyes, and to give a little quickening in our servitude.
Atuvah, maimae BAWIPA Cathut ni, maimanaw na hlout sak teh, na hring sak hnukkhu, ka thoung hmuen koe na o sak e heh lungmanae doeh. Maimae BAWIPA ni san dawk hoi na hlout sak teh kâhatnae bout na poe awh.
9 For we are slaves, yet in our servitude the Lord our God has not deserted us; and he has extended favor to us in the sight of the kings of the Persians, to give us a quickening, that they should raise up the house of our God, and restore the desolate places of it, and to give us a fence in Juda and Jerusalem.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, maimouh teh san lah doeh o awh, hateiteh san onae dawkvah Cathut ni na cettakhai hoeh. Maimanaw bout hlout nahanelah Cathut im kangdue sak teh ka rawk tangcoung e bout pathoup hane hoi Judah ram Jerusalem rapan bout tawn nahanelah, Persia siangpahrangnaw e mithmu vah maimouh lathueng vah a lungmanae kalen lah hoeh a kamnue sak.
10 What shall we say, our God, after this? for we have forsaken your commandments,
Oe ka Cathut atu bangmaw ka dei awh han toung. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nange kâpoelawknaw teh ka pahnawt awh toe.
11 which you have given us by the hand of your servants the prophets, saying, The land, into which you go to inherit it, is a land subject to disturbance by the removal of the people of the nations for their abominations, wherewith they have filled it from one end to the other by their uncleanness.
Na san profetnaw hno lahoi kâ na poe teh, coe hanelah na kâennae ram teh ram thung e tami kamhnawngnae niyah, a khinsak e ram lah ao teh, panuetthonae hoi kamhnawngnae ni, abuemlahoi a khinsak e doeh.
12 And now give not your daughters to their sons, and take not of their daughters for your sons, neither shall you seek their peace or their good for ever: that you may be strong, and eat the good of the land, and transmit it as an inheritance to your children for ever.
Hatdawkvah, na tha o awh teh hote ram dawk hnokahawi na canei thai awh teh, ca catounnaw hanelah na parâw thai nahanelah, na canunaw hoi a capanaw kâyuvasak hanh awh. Na capanaw hoi a canunaw kâpaluensak hanh. Ahnimae hnopai hoi tawnta e naw noe awh hanh, telah a ti.
13 And after all that is come upon us because of our evil deeds, and our great trespass, [it is clear] that there is none such as our God, for you has lightly visited our iniquities, and given us deliverance;
Hahoi, maimae BAWIPA Cathut ni maimouh ni kamcu e yon phu na khang sak laipalah, maimouh ni payon e kahawi hoe e hno, kalenpounge yonnae dawk, hettelah kâhmo awh nakunghai BAWIPA ni hloutnae bout na poe awh hnukkhu,
14 whereas we have repeatedly broken your commandments, and intermarried with the people of the lands: be not very angry with us to [our] utter destruction, so that there should be no remnant or escaping one.
Kaimouh ni na kâpoelawknaw bout ka pahnawt awh teh, panuettho poung e hno ka sak e taminaw hoi bout kaawm awh pawiteh, buet touh hai hlout laipalah na lungkhueknae hoi kaimouh na raphoe han na vaiyaw.
15 O Lord God of Israel, you [are] righteous; for we remain [yet] escaped, as at this day: behold, we [are] before you in our trespasses: for we can’t stand before you on this account.
Oe Isarel BAWIPA Cathut, nang teh na lan. Hatei kaimouh teh kacawirae ca doeh. Sahnin ka coungnae patetlah na khenhaw! na hmalah yonpen e lah ka o awh. Hetnaw kecu dawk na hmalah kangdout thai e apihai kaawm awh hoeh, telah ka ti.
