Ezra 9
1 and like/as to end: finish these to approach: approach to(wards) me [the] ruler to/for to say not to separate [the] people Israel and [the] priest and [the] Levi from people [the] land: country/planet like/as abomination their to/for Canaanite [the] Hittite [the] Perizzite [the] Jebusite [the] Ammon [the] Moabite [the] Egyptian and [the] Amorite
Sezenziwe zonke lezi izinto, abakhokheli beza kimi bathi, “Abantu bako-Israyeli bonke, labaphristi, labaLevi kabazehlukanisanga labantu bezizwe abalezenzo ezinengekayo, abanjengamaKhenani, amaHithi, amaPherizi, amaJebusi, ama-Amori, amaMowabi, amaGibhithe lama-Amoni.
2 for to lift: marry from daughter their to/for them and to/for son: child their and to pledge seed: children [the] holiness in/on/with people [the] land: country/planet and hand: power [the] ruler and [the] ruler to be in/on/with unfaithfulness [the] this first: chief
Bathatha amanye amadodakazi abo aba ngomkabo bathathela lamadodana abo, baxubanisa isizwe esingcwele labantu abahlezi labo. Njalo abakhokheli lezikhulu yibo abakhokheleyo kulokhu kungathembeki.”
3 and like/as to hear: hear I [obj] [the] word: thing [the] this to tear [obj] garment my and robe my and to smooth [emph?] from hair head my and beard my and to dwell [emph?] be desolate: appalled
Ngathi ngikuzwa lokho ngadabula isigqoko sami lejazi lami, ngadonsa inwele ekhanda lami lezindevu zami ngahlala phansi ngididekile.
4 and to(wards) me to gather all trembling in/on/with word God Israel upon unfaithfulness [the] captivity and I to dwell be desolate: appalled till to/for offering [the] evening
Kwasekusithi wonke lowo owethuswa ngamazwi kaNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli waziqoqa phansi kwami ngenxa yalokhu ukona kwezithunjwa. Ngahlala khonapho ngididekile kwaze kwaba ngumhlatshelo wakusihlwa.
5 and in/on/with offering [the] evening to arise: rise from fasting my and in/on/with to tear I garment my and robe my and to bow [emph?] upon knee my and to spread [emph?] palm my to(wards) LORD God my
Kwathi-ke ngomhlatshelo wakusihlwa, ngaphakama ekuzehliseni kwami, isigqoko sami lejazi lami kudabukile, ngaguqa, izandla zami zivuliwe kuThixo uNkulunkulu wami
6 and to say [emph?] God my be ashamed and be humiliated to/for to exalt God my face my to(wards) you for iniquity: crime our to multiply to/for above [to] head and guiltiness our to magnify till to/for heaven
ngakhuleka ngathi: “Oh Nkulunkulu wami, ngiyangekile kakhulu njalo ngilenhloni ukuphakamisela ubuso bami kuwe, Nkulunkulu wami, ngoba izono zethu ziphakeme kulamakhanda ethu lecala lethu selifikile emazulwini.
7 from day father our we in/on/with guiltiness great: large till [the] day: daily [the] this and in/on/with iniquity: crime our to give: give we king our priest our in/on/with hand: power king [the] land: country/planet in/on/with sword in/on/with captivity and in/on/with plunder and in/on/with shame face of like/as [the] day: today [the] this
Kusukela ensukwini zabokhokho bethu kuze kube manje, icala lethu likhulu. Ngenxa yezono zethu, thina lamakhosi ethu labaphristi bethu sesilokhu sidliwa yinkemba njalo sigqilazwa, siphangwa njalo siyangiswa ngamakhosi ezizwe, njengoba kunjalo lalamuhla.
8 and now like/as little moment to be supplication from with LORD God our to/for to remain to/for us survivor and to/for to give: give to/for us peg in/on/with place holiness his to/for to light eye our God our and to/for to give: give us recovery little in/on/with slavery our
Kodwa khathesi, okwesikhatshana nje, uThixo uNkulunkulu wethu ube lomusa ngokusitshiyela insalela lokusipha indawo eqinileyo endlini yakhe engcwele, okuthi ngakho uNkulunkulu wethu uletha ukukhanya emehlweni ethu lokukhululeka kancinyane ekugqilazweni kwethu.
9 for servant/slave we and in/on/with slavery our not to leave: forsake us God our and to stretch upon us kindness to/for face: before king Persia to/for to give: give to/for us recovery to/for to exalt [obj] house: temple God our and to/for to stand: rise [obj] desolation his and to/for to give: give to/for us wall in/on/with Judea and in/on/with Jerusalem
Lokuba siyizigqili, uNkulunkulu wethu kasidelanga ebugqilini bethu. Usitshengise umusa emehlweni amakhosi asePhezhiya; usiphile impilo entsha ukuba sakhe kutsha indlu kaNkulunkulu wethu sivuselele amanxiwa ayo, njalo usesiphile umduli wokusivikela koJuda laseJerusalema.
10 and now what? to say God our after this for to leave: forsake commandment your
Kodwa manje, awu Nkulunkulu wethu, kuyini esingakutsho sekwenzakale lokhu? Ngoba siyidelile imilayo
11 which to command in/on/with hand: by servant/slave your [the] prophet to/for to say [the] land: country/planet which you(m. p.) to come (in): come to/for to possess: take her land: country/planet impurity he/she/it in/on/with impurity people [the] land: country/planet in/on/with abomination their which to fill her from lip: edge to(wards) lip: edge in/on/with uncleanness their
owayinika ngezinceku zakho abaphrofethi uze uthi: ‘Ilizwe eselingena kulo ukulithatha yilizwe elingcolisiweyo ngokuxhwala kwabantu balo. Ngemikhuba yabo enengekayo sebeligcwalise ngamanyala abo kusukela ngapha kwalo kuze kufike ekucineni ngale.
12 and now daughter your not to give: give(marriage) to/for son: child their and daughter their not to lift: marry to/for son: child your and not to seek peace their and welfare their till forever: enduring because to strengthen: strengthen and to eat [obj] goodness [the] land: country/planet and to possess: possess to/for son: child your till forever: enduring
Ngakho-ke lingendiseli amadodakazi enu emadodaneni abo kumbe amadodana enu athathe amadodakazi abo. Lingadingi isibopho sobudlelwano labo loba nini, ukuze liqine lidle izinto ezinhle zelizwe elizalitshiyela abantwabenu njengelifa laphakade.’
13 and after all [the] to come (in): come upon us in/on/with deed our [the] bad: evil and in/on/with guiltiness our [the] great: large for you(m. s.) God our to withhold to/for beneath from iniquity: crime our and to give: give to/for us survivor like/as this
Osekwenzakele kithi kungumvuzo wezenzo zethu ezimbi lecala lethu elikhulu, ikanti wena Nkulunkulu wethu usijezise okunganeno kwezono zethu wasipha abayinsalela kanje.
14 to return: again to/for to break commandment your and to/for be related in/on/with people [the] abomination [the] these not be angry in/on/with us till to end: destroy to/for nothing remnant and survivor
Sizaphinda njalo sephule imilayo yakho sendiselane labantu bezizwe abagila imikhuba eyenyanyekayo kangaka na? Ungaze wasizondela kakhulu na usibhubhise ungasitshiyeli lansalela loba abasindileyo na?
15 LORD God Israel righteous you(m. s.) for to remain survivor like/as [the] day: today [the] this look! we to/for face: before your in/on/with guiltiness our for nothing to/for to stand: stand to/for face: before your upon this
Oh Thixo, Nkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, ulungile! Namhlanje sisele njengensalela. Nanku silapha phambi kwakho ngecala lethu, lokuba engekho ongema ebukhoneni bakho ngenxa yalo icala lethu.”
