Ezra 9
1 Now when these things were completed, the leaders approached me and said, "The people of Israel, and the priests and the Levites, have not separated themselves from the peoples of the lands, following their abominations, even those of the Canaanites, the Hethites, the Perizzites, the Jebusites, the Ammonites, the Moabites, the Egyptians, and the Amorites.
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 for their sons, so that the holy seed have mixed themselves with the peoples of the lands. Indeed, the hand of the officials and leaders has been foremost in this trespass."
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 When I heard this thing, I tore my garment and my robe, and plucked off the hair of my head and of my beard, and sat down confounded.
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 were assembled to me everyone who trembled at the words of the God of Israel, because of their trespass of the captivity; and I sat confounded until the evening offering.
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 At the evening offering I arose up from my humiliation, even with my garment and my robe torn; and I fell on my knees, and spread out my hands to Jehovah my 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, "My God, I am ashamed and blush to lift up my face to you, my God; for our iniquities have increased over our head, and our guiltiness has grown up to the heavens.
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 Since the days of our fathers we have been exceeding guilty to this day; and for our iniquities we, our kings, and our priests, have been delivered into the hand of the kings of the lands, to the sword, to captivity, to plunder, and to confusion of face, as it is 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 Now for a little moment grace has been shown from Jehovah our God, to leave us a remnant to escape, and to give us a nail in his holy place, that our God may lighten our eyes, and give us a little reviving in our bondage.
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 bondservants; yet our God has not forsaken us in our bondage, but has extended loving kindness to us in the sight of the kings of Persia, to give us a reviving, to set up the house of our God, and to repair its ruins, and to give us a wall in Judah and in 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 "Now, our God, what shall we say 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 commanded by your servants the prophets, saying, 'The land, to which you go to possess it, is an unclean land through the uncleanness of the peoples of the lands, through their abominations, which have filled it from one end to another with their filthiness.
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 Now therefore do not give your daughters to their sons, neither take their daughters to your sons, nor seek their peace or their prosperity forever; that you may be strong, and eat the good of the land, and leave it for an inheritance to your children forever.'
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 "After all that has come on us for our evil deeds, and for our great guilt, since you, our God, have punished us less than our iniquities deserve, and have given us such a remnant,
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 shall we again break your commandments, and join in affinity with the peoples that do these abominations? Wouldn't you be angry with us until you had consumed us, so that there should be no remnant, nor any to escape?
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 Jehovah, the God of Israel, you are righteous; for we are left a remnant that has escaped, as it is this day. Look, we are before you in our guiltiness; for none can stand before you because of this."
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.
