Ezra 10
1 And at Ezra’s praying, and at his making confession, weeping and casting himself down before the house of God, there have been gathered to him out of Israel a very great assembly—men and women and children—for the people have wept, multiplying weeping.
Pea ʻi he hili ʻae lotu ʻa Esela, pea hili ʻene vete, ʻo tangi mo fakatōmapeʻe ia ʻi he mata fale ʻoe ʻOtua, naʻe haʻu kiate ia mei ʻIsileli ʻae fuʻu kakai tokolahi ʻoe kau tangata mo e kau fefine mo e fānau: he naʻe tangi mamahi ʻaupito ʻae kakai.
2 And Shechaniah son of Jehiel, of the sons of Elam, answers and says to Ezra, “We have trespassed against our God, and we settle strange women of the peoples of the land; and now there is hope for Israel concerning this,
Pea ko Sikania ko e foha ʻo Sehieli, ko e tokotaha ʻi he ngaahi foha ʻo ʻIlami, naʻe lea ia ʻo ne pehē kia Esela, “Kuo mau fai hala ki hotau ʻOtua, pea kuo mau maʻu ʻae ngaahi uaifi kehe ʻi he kakai ʻoe fonua: ka ko eni ʻoku ai ʻae ʻamanaki lelei ʻi ʻIsileli ʻoku kau ki he meʻa ni.
3 and now, let us make a covenant with our God, to cause all the women to go out, and that which is born of them, by the counsel of the Lord, and of those trembling at the command of our God, and according to law it is done;
Pea ko eni ke tau fai ʻae fuakava ki hotau ʻOtua ke mau tukuange ʻae ngaahi uaifi kehe kotoa pē, mo kinautolu kuo fānau ʻiate kinautolu, ʻo fakatatau ki he fakakaukau ʻa hoku ʻeiki, mo kinautolu ʻoku tetetete ki he fekau ʻa hotau ʻOtua; pea tuku ke fai ia ʻo fakatatau mo e fono.
4 rise, for on you [is] the matter, and we [are] with you; be strong, and do.”
Tuʻu hake: he ʻoku kau ʻae meʻa ni kiate koe: pea ke loto mālohi, pea fai ia.”
5 And Ezra rises, and causes the heads of the priests, the Levites, and all Israel, to swear to do according to this word—and they swear.
Pea naʻe tuʻu ai ʻa Esela, pea fakafuakava ʻe ia ʻae kau taulaʻeiki lahi, mo e kau Livai, mo ʻIsileli kotoa pē koeʻuhi ke nau fai ʻo fakatatau ki he lea ni. Pea naʻa nau fuakava.
6 And Ezra rises from before the house of God, and goes to the chamber of Jehohanan son of Eliashib; indeed, he goes there, bread he has not eaten, and water he has not drunk, for he is mourning because of the trespass of the expulsion.
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻa Esela mei he mata fale ʻoe ʻOtua, pea ne ʻalu ki he fale ʻo Sohanani ko e foha ʻo Iliasipi: pea ʻi heʻene hoko ki ai, naʻe ʻikai te ne kai ha mā, pe inu ha vai: he naʻe tangi pe ia ko e meʻa ʻi he angahala ʻanautolu ʻaia naʻe fetuku ʻo ʻave pōpula.
7 And they cause a voice to pass over into Judah and Jerusalem, to all sons of the expulsion, to be gathered to Jerusalem,
Pea naʻa nau fanongonongo ʻae fono ʻi Siuta kotoa pē mo Selūsalema ki he fānau kotoa pē ʻoe fakapōpula, koeʻuhi ke nau fakataha ʻakinautolu ʻi Selūsalema.
8 and everyone who does not come in by the third day, according to the counsel of the heads and the elderly, all his substance is devoted, and himself separated from the assembly of the expulsion.
Pea ʻilonga ʻaia ʻe ʻikai haʻu ʻi he ʻaho ʻe tolu, ʻo fakatatau mo e fakakaukau ʻae houʻeiki mo e kau mātuʻa, ʻe faʻoa ʻene meʻa kotoa pē, pea ʻe vaheʻi ia mei he fakataha ʻokinautolu naʻe fetuku ki he mamaʻo.
9 And all the men of Judah and Benjamin are gathered to Jerusalem by the third day, it [is] the ninth month, on the twentieth of the month, and all the people sit in the broad place of the house of God, trembling on account of the matter and of the showers.
Pea naʻe toki fakakātoa fakataha ʻakinautolu ki Selūsalema ʻae kau tangata kotoa pē ʻo Siuta mo Penisimani, ʻi he ʻaho ʻe tolu. Ko hono hiva ia ʻoe māhina, ʻi hono ʻaho ʻe uofulu ʻoe māhina; pea naʻe nofo ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻi he hala lahi ʻoe fale ʻoe ʻOtua, pea tetetete koeʻuhi ko e meʻa ni, pea koeʻuhi ko e ʻuha lahi.
10 And Ezra the priest rises and says to them, “You have trespassed, and you settle strange women, to add to the guilt of Israel;
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻa Esela ko e taulaʻeiki, ʻo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Kuo mou fai talangataʻa; pea kuo mou maʻu ʻae ngaahi uaifi kehe, ke fakalahi ki he hala ʻa ʻIsileli.
11 and now, make confession to YHWH, God of your fathers, and do His good pleasure, and be separated from the peoples of the land, and from the strange women.”
Pea ko eni mou fai ʻae vete kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo hoʻomou ngaahi tamai, pea [mou ]fai ki hono finangalo: pea fakamavae ʻakimoutolu mei he kakai ʻoe fonua, pea mei homou ngaahi uaifi kehe.”
12 And all the assembly answers and says [with] a great voice, “Right; according to your word—on us to do;
Pea naʻe lea ai ʻae kakai kotoa pē naʻe fakataha ʻo pehē ʻaki ʻae leʻo lahi, “Hangē ko ia kuo ke tala, ʻoku totonu ke mau fai.
13 but the people [are] many, and [it is] the time of showers, and there is no power to stand outside, and the work [is] not for one day, nor for two, for we have multiplied to transgress in this thing.
Ka ʻoku tokolahi ʻae kakai, pea ko e ʻaho eni ʻoe ʻuha lahi, pea ʻoku ʻikai te mau faʻa fai ke tuʻu ʻi tuaʻā, pea ʻoku ʻikai ko e ngāue eni ki he ʻaho pe taha pe ua: he ʻoku mau tokolahi kuo fai hala ʻi he meʻa ni.
14 Please let our heads of all the assembly stand; and all who [are] in our cities, who have settled strange wives, come in at [the] appointed times, and with them [the] elderly of city and city, and judges in it, until the turning back of the fury of the wrath of our God from us, for this thing.”
Pea ko eni ke tuʻu hake homau kau pule ʻoe fakataha kotoa pē, pea ke haʻu ʻakinautolu kotoa pē, ʻaia kuo nau maʻu ʻae ngaahi uaifi kehe, ʻi hotau ngaahi kolo, ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻe kotofa, pea ke haʻu mo kinautolu ʻae kau mātuʻa ʻoe kolo kotoa pē, mo e kau fakamaau ʻi ai, koeʻuhi ke fakafoki ʻae houhau lahi ʻo hotau ʻOtua ʻi he meʻa ni meiate kimautolu.”
15 Only Jonathan son of Asahel, and Jahaziah son of Tikvah, stood against this, and Meshullam, and Shabbethai the Levite, helped them.
Ko Sonatani pe ko e foha ʻo ʻAsaeli mo Sehasia ko e foha ʻo Tikiva naʻe fakakau ʻakinaua ʻi he meʻa ni: pea naʻe tokoni ʻakinaua ʻe Mesulami, mo Sapitei ko e Livai.
16 And the sons of the expulsion do so, and Ezra the priest, [and] men, heads of the fathers, for the house of their fathers, are separated, even all of them by name, and they sit on the first day of the tenth month, to examine the matter;
Pea naʻe fai pehē pe ʻe he fānau ʻae kau pōpula. Pea naʻe nofo hifo ʻa Esela ko e taulaʻeiki, mo e niʻihi ʻoe kau tuʻukimuʻa ʻi he kau mātuʻa, ʻo fakatatau ki he fale ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai, pea naʻe vahevahe ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻi honau hingoa, ʻi he ʻuluaki ʻaho ʻi hono hongofulu ʻoe māhina ke fakamaauʻi ʻae meʻa ni.
17 and they finish with all the men who have settled strange women to the first day of the first month.
Pea naʻa nau fai ʻo ʻosi ʻi he ʻuluaki ʻaho ʻoe ʻuluaki māhina ki he kau tangata kotoa pē naʻa nau maʻu ʻae uaifi kehe.
18 And there are found of the sons of the priests that have settled strange women: of the sons of Jeshua son of Jozadak, and his brothers, Maaseiah, and Eliezer, and Jarib, and Gedaliah;
Pea naʻe ʻilo ʻi he ngaahi foha ʻoe kau taulaʻeiki, ʻae niʻihi naʻe maʻu ʻae ngaahi uaifi kehe: koeʻuhi, ʻi he ngaahi foha ʻo Sesua ko e foha ʻo Sosataki, mo hono ngaahi kāinga; ko Māseia, mo ʻEliesa, mo Salipe, mo Ketalia.
19 and they give their hand to send out their wives, and being guilty, a ram of the flock for their guilt.
Pea naʻa nau foaki honau nima ke nau tukuange honau ngaahi uaifi; pea ʻi heʻenau halaia, naʻa nau ʻatu ʻae sipitangata mei he fanga sipi ʻi heʻenau angahala.
