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.
Aa ie niheneke, le niheo mb’ amako mb’eo o roandriañeo nanao ty hoe: Mboe tsy miavak’ am’ondati’ o taneo o nte-Israeleo naho o mpisoroñeo vaho o nte-Levio, ty amo haloloa’ o nte-Kanàneo, o nte-Kiteo, o nte Perizeo, o nte-Iebosio, o nte-Amoneo, o nte-Moabeo, o nte-Mitsraimeo vaho o nte-Amoreo.
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."
Ie nañenga amo anak’ ampela’ iareoo ho am-bata’e naho ho amo ana-dahi’eo; aa le mitraok’ am’ondati’ i taneio i tiry miavakey; eka, toe lohà’e amy tsy figahiñañe zay ty fità’ o roandriañeo naho o mpiaoloo.
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.
Ie nahatsanoñe izay iraho le riniako i sarokoy naho i sarimbokoy naho nañonotse ty volon-dohako naho ty somako vaho nitoboke an-kasalarañe.
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.
Nivory amako ze hene mpinevenevetse amo tsaran’ Añahare’ Israeleo ty amy tsy figahiña’ o tam-pandrohizañeo; le nitoboke eo avao iraho ami’ty hadabàko ampara’ i fisoroñan-karivay.
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 YHWH my God;
Le niongak’ amy fisoroñan-karivay iraho, ie riatse i sarokoy naho i sarimbokoy; le nivarahotrak’ añ’ongoko eo nañiti-tàñañe amy Iehovà Andrianañahareko
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.
nanao ty hoe: O Andrianañahareko, salatse iraho, meñatse tsy mahaandra’ tarehe ama’o, ry Andrianañahareko; fa mitoabotse am-bonen’ añambone’ay ey o hakeo’aio vaho mitombo pak’ an-dikerañe añe o tahi’aio.
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.
Toe niliforen-kakeo tañ’ andron-droae’ay ampara henaneo zahay, le o tahi’aio ty nanolorañe anay naho o mpanjaka’aio naho o mpisoro’aio am-pitàm-panjaka’ o taneo; am-pibara, an-drohy, am-pikopafañe naho an-kasalaran-daharañe manahake androany.
8 Now for a little moment grace has been shown from YHWH 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.
Ie vaho anianike te nihelañe eo ty fitretreza’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ay, nanisa ama’ay ty sehanga’e nipolititse, hitolora’e ty fantake an-toe’e miavakey, hañazavàn’ Añahare’ay o fihaino’aio hampisotratsotrake anay amo rohi’aio.
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.
Toe fetrek’ oron-jahay; fe tsy naforintsen’ Añahare’ay amy fandrohizañey, te mone niferenaiña’e am-pahaoniña’ o mpanjaka’ i Paraseo, hanolora’e fañavaòañe hampitroara’ay ty anjomban’ Añahare’ay, hampijohaña’ay o nianto ama’eo vaho nitolora’e kijolim-piarovañe e Iehodà naho e Ierosalaime ao.
10 "Now, our God, what shall we say after this? For we have forsaken your commandments,
Aa ie henanekeo ry Andrianañahare’ay, ino ty hanoe’ay? kanao nifarie’ay o lili’oo,
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.
o nandilia’o añamo mpitoky mpitoro’oo, ami’ ty hoe: Toe tane maleotse i tane ionjona’ areo ho tavaneñey, amo haleora’ ondati’ i taneio, amo haloloa’ iareoo; ie nampipeà’ iareo ama’e ty hativà’ iareo boak’ añ’efe’e sikal’ añ’ilae’e añe.
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.'
Ie amy zao ko atolo’ areo amo ana-dahi’ iareoo o anak’ ampela’ areoo naho ko ampañenga’ areo o anak’ ampela’ iareoo o ana-dahi’ areoo; ko ipaia’ areo kitro-katroke ty fanintsiñañe ndra ty firaoraoañe; soa te ho fatratse nahareo hikama ty hasoa o taneo, hampandovà’ areo aze amo ana’ areoo nainai’e.
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,
Aa i hene nifetsak’ ama’ay ty amo sata-rati’aio naho o halòn-kakeo’ aioy naho te ihe, Andrianañahare’ay tsy nandafa anay mañeva o tahi’aio vaho natolo’o o sehanga’e zao,
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?
aa vaho hivalik’ amo lili’oo indraike zahay, hifanambaly am’ondaty mpanao i halò-tsere’e rezay? Tsy hiviñera’o ampara’ te nimongore’o, tsy aman-tsehanga’e, leo raike tsy hahapolititse?
15 YHWH, 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."
Vantan-dRehe ry Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele; fa nanisàñe ama’ay o nahapolititseo, ie o androanio; hehe te miatrek’ Azo an-kakeo; leo raike tsy hahafitroatse añatrefa’o ty amo raha zao.
