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.
エズラ神の室の前に泣伏して禱りかつ懺悔しをる時に男女および兒女はなはだし多くイスラエルの中より集ひて彼の許に聚り來れり すべての民はいたく泣かなしめり
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.
時にエラムの子ヱヒエルの子シカニヤ答へてエズラに言ふ 我らはわれらの神に對ひて罪を犯し此地の民なる異邦人の婦女を娶れり 然ながら此事につきてはイスラエルに今なほ望あり
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.
然ば我儕わが主の敎晦にしたがひ又我らの神の命令に戰慄く人々の敎晦にしたがひて斯る妻をことごとく出し之が產たる者を去んといふ契約を今われらの神に立てん 而して律法にしたがひて之を爲べし
4 Arise; for this matter is obligatory upon thee; and we will be with thee: be strong, and do it.
起よ是事は汝の主どる所なり 我ら汝を助くべし心を強くして之を爲せと
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.
エズラやがて起あがり祭司の長等レビ人およびイスラエルの人衆をして此言のごとく爲んと誓はしめたり 彼ら乃ち誓へり
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.
かくてエズラ神の家の前より起いでてエリアシブの子ヨハナンの室に入しが彼處に至りてもパンを食ず水を飮ざりき 是は俘囚より歸り來りし者の愆を憂へたればなり
7 And they made proclamation throughout Judah and Jerusalem unto all the children of the exile, to gather themselves together at Jerusalem;
斯てユダおよびヱルサレムに遍ねく宣て俘囚の人々に盡く示して云ふ 汝ら皆ヱルサレムに集まるべし
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.
凡そ牧伯等と長老等の諭言にしたがひて三日の内に來らざる者は皆その一切の所有を取あげられ俘擄人の會より黜けらるべしと
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.
是においてユダとベニヤミンの人々みな三日の内にヱルサレムに集まれり 是は九月にして恰もその月の廿日なりき 民みな神の室の前なる廣塲に坐して此事のためまた大雨のために震ひ慄けり
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.
時に祭司エズラ起て之に言けるは汝らは罪を犯し異邦の婦人を娶りてイスラエルの愆を増り
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.
然ば今なんぢらのの先祖の神ヱホバに懺悔してその御旨を行へ 即ち汝等この地の民等および異邦の婦人とはなるべしと
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.
會衆みな聲をあげて答へて言ふ 汝が我らに諭せるごとく我儕かならず爲べし
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.
然ど民は衆し 又今は大雨の候なれば我儕外に立こと能はず 且これは一日二日の事業にあらず 其は我らこの事について大に罪を犯したればなり
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.
然ば我らの牧伯等この全會衆のために立れよ 凡そ我儕の邑の内にもし異邦の婦人を娶りし者あらば皆定むる時に來るべし 又その各々の邑の長老および裁判人これに伴ふべし 斯して此事を成ば我らの神の烈しき怒つひに我らを離るるあらんと
15 Only Jonathan the son of 'Assahel and Jachzeyah the son of Thikvah withstood this [proposal]: and Meshullam and Shabbethai the Levite assisted them.
その時立てこれに逆ひし者はアサヘルの子ヨナタンおよびテクワの子ヤハジア而已メシユラムおよびレビ人シヤベタイこれを贊く
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.
俘囚より歸り來りし者つひに然なし 祭司エズラおよび宗家の長數人その宗家にしたがひて名指して撰ばれ十月の一日より共に坐してこの事を査べ
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.
正月の一日に至りてやうやく異邦の婦人を娶りし人々を盡く査べ畢れり
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.
祭司の徒の中にて異邦の婦人を娶りし者は即ちヨザダクの子ヱシユアの子等およびその兄弟マアセヤ、エリエゼル、ヤリブ、ゲダリヤ
19 And they gave their hand to put away their wives, and being guilty, [they offered] a ram of the flock for their trespass.
