Ezra 10
1 Now when 'Ezra prayed, and when he made his confession, weeping and casting himself down before the house of God, there gathered themselves unto him out of Israel a very large assembly of men and women and children; for the people wept exceedingly much.
Alò, pandan Esdras t ap priye e t ap fè konfesyon, t ap kriye e pwostène li devan lakay Bondye a, yon trè gran asanble, gason, fanm, ni timoun, te rasanble vè li soti an Israël; paske pèp yo te kriye byen anmè.
2 Thereupon commenced Shechanyah the son of Jechiel, of the sons of 'Elam, and said unto 'Ezra, we have indeed trespassed against our God, and have brought home strange wives of the nations of the land: yet now there is hope in Israel concerning this thing.
Schecania, fis a Jehiel la, youn nan fis a Élam yo, te di Esdras: “Nou pa t fidèl a Bondye nou an. Nou te marye ak fanm etranje soti nan pèp peyi yo. Malgre, koulye a toujou gen espwa pou Israël.
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 direction of the Lord, and of those that tremble at the commandment of our God: and let it be done according to the law.
Alò pou sa a, kite nou fè yon akò avèk Bondye nou an pou mete akote tout fanm yo avèk pitit pa yo, selon konsèy a mèt mwen an, e pou sila ki tranble sou kòmandman Bondye nou yo. Epi kite sa fèt selon lalwa a.
4 Arise; for this matter is obligatory upon thee; and we will be with thee: be strong, and do it.
Leve! Paske se ou menm ki responsab afè sila a, men nou va avèk nou. Pran kouraj e aji.”
5 Then arose 'Ezra, and caused the princes of the priests, the Levites, and of all Israel, to swear to do according to this word. And they swore.
Konsa, Esdras te leve, e te fè prèt prensipal yo, Levit yo ak tout Israël sèmante pou yo ta fè selon sa ki te pwopoze a. Konsa yo te sèmante.
6 Then arose 'Ezra from before the house of God, and went into the chamber of Jochanan the son of Elyashib; and he went thither without having eaten bread, or having drunk water; for he was mourning because of the trespass of the exiles.
Epi Esdras te leve soti devan lakay Bondye a, e te antre nan chanm a Jochanan nan, fis a Éliaschib la. Malgre li te ale la, li pa t manje pen, ni bwè dlo, paske li te tèlman dezole akoz enfidelite a moun egzil yo.
7 And they made proclamation throughout Judah and Jerusalem unto all the children of the exile, to gather themselves together at Jerusalem;
Yo te fè yon dekrè nan tout Juda avèk Jérusalem a tout moun egzil yo, ke yo ta dwe rasanble Jérusalem,
8 And that whosoever should not come within three days, according to the resolve of the princes and the elders, all his substance should be devoted, and himself separated from the congregation of the exiles.
epi ke nenpòt moun ki pa ta vini nan twa jou yo, selon konsèy a chèf pa yo avèk ansyen yo, tout byen li yo va konfiske e li menm ta retire nan asanble moun egzil yo.
9 Then were all the men of Judah and Benjamin gathered together unto Jerusalem within three days: it was in the ninth month, on the twentieth day of the month; and all the people sat in the open place before the house of God, trembling because of this matter, and by reason of the showers of rain.
Pou sa, tout mesye Juda avèk Benjamin yo te rasanble Jérusalem nan twa jou yo. Se te nan nevyèm mwa a sou ventyèm jou nan mwa a, tout pèp te chita nan plas ouvri devan lakay Bondye a, e yo t ap tranble akoz afè sila a ak gwo lapli a.
10 And 'Ezra the priest rose up, and said unto them, Ye have acted unfaithfully, and have brought home strange wives, to increase yet more the guiltiness of Israel.
Alò, Esdras, prèt la, te kanpe epi te di yo: “Nou pa t fidèl e nou te marye avèk fanm etranje yo, ki ogmante koupabilite Israël la.
11 Now therefore make confession unto the Lord the God of your fathers, and do his will; and separate yourselves from the nations of the earth, and from the strange wives.
Alò, akoz sa a konfese a SENYÈ a, Bondye a zansèt nou yo, e fè volonte L. Separe nou menm soti nan moun a peyi yo, e separe nou de madanm etranje yo.”
12 Then answered all the assembly and said with a loud voice, So be it: according to thy word it is our duty to do.
Konsa, tout asanble a te reponn ak yon gwo vwa: “Se konsa, jan ou te di a, se devwa nou pou nou fè.
13 But the people are many, and it is the rainy season, and we have not the strength to remain in the street, nor is this a work for one day or for two days; for we are many that have transgressed in this matter.
Men gen anpil moun, se sezon lapli a, e nou p ap kab kanpe deyò a. Ni tach la pa kab fèt nan youn oswa de jou, paske nou te fè anpil transgresyon nan afè sila a.
14 Let however our princes stand forward for all the congregation, and let all those in our cities who have brought home strange wives come at appointed times, and with them the elders of each and every city, and its judges, until the fierce wrath of our God be turned away from us for this whole matter.
Kite chèf nou yo reprezante tout asanble a, e kite tout sila nan vil nou yo ki te marye ak fanm etranje yo vini nan lè apwente yo, ansanm avèk ansyen a chak vil yo, jiskaske kòlè fewòs Bondye nou an, akoz bagay sa a, ta vin detounen kite nou.”
15 Only Jonathan the son of 'Assahel and Jachzeyah the son of Thikvah withstood this [proposal]: and Meshullam and Shabbethai the Levite assisted them.
Sèlman Jonathan, fis Asël la avèk Jachzia, fis a Thikva a, te opoze ak sa, avèk Meschullam avèk Schabthaï, Levit ki t ap bay yo soutyen an.
16 And the children of the exile did so. And then were set apart 'Ezra the priest, [and] certain chiefs of the divisions, for their family divisions, and all of them [designated] by their names; and they sat down on the first day of the tenth month to examine the matter.
Men moun egzil yo te fè li konsa. Epi Esdras, prèt la, te chwazi mesye ki te chèf an tèt lakay zansèt yo pou chak kay zansèt, yo tout pa non yo. Konsa, yo te reyini nan premye jou nan dizyèm mwa a pou fè rechèch sou ka sila a.
17 And they made an end with all, with the men that had brought home strange wives, not before the first day of the first month.
Yo te fin fè rechèch la sou tout mesye ki te marye ak fanm etranje yo pou rive nan premye jou premye mwa a.
18 And there were found among the sons of the priests that had brought home strange wives, namely, of the sons of Jeshua' the son of Jozadak, and his brethren: Ma'asseyah, and Eli'ezer, and Jarib, and Gedalyah.
Pami fis a prèt ki te marye ak fanm etranje yo, yo te twouve fis a Josué yo, fis a Jotsadak la e frè li yo: Maaséja, Éliézer, Jarib, avèk Guedalia.
19 And they gave their hand to put away their wives, and being guilty, [they offered] a ram of the flock for their trespass.
Yo te fè sèman pou mete akote fanm pa yo e akoz koupabilite a, yo te ofri yon belye a bann mouton an pou kouvri koupabilite yo.
