< Ezra 10 >
1 While I was kneeling down in front of the temple and praying and crying, I was confessing [the sins that the Israeli people had committed]. Many people, men and women and children, gathered around me and also cried very much.
Ezra Allah evinin qarşısında ağlayıb yerə sərilərək dua və etiraf edərkən İsraillilərdən çox böyük bir camaat – kişilər, qadınlar və uşaqlar onun yanına yığıldı. Xalq da acı-acı ağlayırdı.
2 Then Shecaniah, the son of Jehiel from the clan of Elam, said this to me: “We have disobeyed God. [Some of] us have married women who are not Israelis. But we can still confidently expect [Yahweh to be merciful to] us Israeli people.
Elam övladlarından Yexiel oğlu Şekanya Ezraya müraciət edib dedi: «Biz Allahımıza xəyanət edərək ətrafımızdakı xalqlardan yadelli arvadlar aldıq. Buna baxmayaraq, hələ də İsraillilərin ümidi var.
3 We will do what you, and the others who have an awesome respect for what our God has commanded, tell us to do. We will do what God told us in his laws. We will make an agreement with our God, saying that we will divorce our wives who are not Israelis, and we will send them away with their children.
Ağamızın və Allahımızın əmri üzərində əsənlərin məsləhətinə görə bütün belə arvadları və onlardan doğulanları ataq. Gəlin bunun üçün indi Allahımızla əhd bağlayaq. Qoy bu Qanuna görə edilsin.
4 (It is your responsibility to/Because you are our leader, you must) [tell us what to do]. So get up, and be courageous, and do [what is necessary]. We will (support you/tell people to do what you say).”
Qalx, çünki bu işin məsuliyyətini daşıyan sənsən və biz də səninləyik. Ürəkli ol, işə başla!»
5 So I stood up and demanded that the leaders of the priests, the [other] descendants of Levi, and all [the other] Israeli people solemnly declare that they would do what Shecaniah said that they should do. So they all solemnly promised to do that.
Ezra ayağa qalxdı. Kahinlərin rəhbərlərinə, Levililərə və digər İsraillilərə bu sözü yerinə yetirmələri üçün and içdirdi. Onlar da and içdilər.
6 Then I went away from the front of the temple and went to the room where Jehohanan lived. I stayed there that night, but I did not eat or drink anything. I was still sad because some of the Israelis who had returned [from Babylonia] had not faithfully obeyed [God’s laws].
Ezra Allah evinin qarşısından ayrılıb Elyaşivin oğlu Yehoxananın otağına girdi. Gecəni orada keçirib nə çörək yedi, nə də su içdi, çünki sürgündən qayıdanların bu xəyanətinə görə yas tuturdu.
7 Then we sent a message to all [the people in] Jerusalem and [in other towns in] Judah, saying that all those who had returned [from Babylonia] should come to Jerusalem immediately.
Yəhudada və Yerusəlimdə sürgündən qayıdanların hamısına elan etdilər ki, Yerusəlimə yığılsınlar.
8 We said that if any of them did not arrive within three days, the leaders of the people would order that all the property of those people would be taken from them, and that they would no longer be considered to belong to the Israeli people; [they would be considered to be foreigners].
Başçıların və ağsaqqalların məsləhətinə görə üç gün ərzində buraya gəlməyən hər adamın bütün əmlakı müsadirə ediləcək və özü də sürgündən qayıdan camaatın içərisindən çıxarılacaq.
9 So within three days, on December 19, all the people of the tribes of Judah and Benjamin gathered in Jerusalem. They were there, sitting in the courtyard in front of the temple. They were trembling because it was raining hard and because they were worried [that they would be punished for what they had done].
Yəhudanın və Binyaminin bütün adamları üç gün ərzində Yerusəlimə yığıldı. Bu doqquzuncu ayın iyirmisində oldu. Bütün xalq bu hadisədən, həm də yağışdan ötrü əsə-əsə Allah evinin qarşısında, meydanda oturdu.
10 Then I stood up and said to them, “[Some of] you men have committed a very bad sin. You have married women who are not Israelis. By doing that, you have made us Israeli people more guilty [than we were before].
Kahin Ezra ayağa qalxıb onlara dedi: «Siz xəyanət etmisiniz. İsrailin günahını daha da artıraraq yadelli arvadlar almısınız.
11 So now you must confess to Yahweh, the God whom your ancestors [worshiped/belonged to], the sin which you have committed, and you must do what he wants. Separate yourselves from the people of other nations and from the women from those nations whom you have married.”
İndi atalarınızın Allahı Rəbbə öz günahlarınızı etiraf edin və Onun iradəsini yerinə yetirin. Ətrafınızdakı xalqlardan, yadelli arvadlardan ayrılın».
12 The whole group answered, shouting loudly, “Yes, what you have said is right! We will do what you have said.”
Bütün camaat bərkdən cavab verib dedi: «Bəli, haqlısan, sənin sözlərinə əməl etmək bizim borcumuzdur.
13 But then [one of] them said, “But we are a very large group, and it is raining hard. Also, there are many of us who have committed this bad sin. This is something that we cannot (take care of/handle) in one or two days, and we cannot stand here in this rain.
Amma yağış vaxtıdır, bayırda dayanmağa taqətimiz yoxdur, xalq isə çoxdur. Bu iş bir-iki günün işi deyil. Çünki belə əməllə günahımızı artırmışıq.
14 So allow our leaders to decide for all of us what we should do. Tell everyone who has married a woman who is not Israeli to come at a time that you decide. They should come with the elders and judges from each city. If we do that, our God will stop being angry with us [because of what we have done].”
Qoy bütün xalqı rəhbərlərimiz təmsil etsin. Bu işə görə Allahımızın coşan qəzəbi soyuyanadək şəhərlərimizdəki hər yadelli arvad alan şəxs şəhər ağsaqqalları və hakimlərlə bərabər təyin olunacaq vaxtda buraya gəlsin».
15 Jonathan the son of Asahel, Jahzeiah the son of Tikvah, Meshullam, and Shabbethai, a descendant of Levi, were the only ones who objected to this.
Buna qarşı yalnız Asahel oğlu Yonatan və Tiqva oğlu Yaxzeya çıxdı. Meşullamla Levili Şabbetay da onlara kömək etdi.
16 All the others who had returned from Babylonia said that they would do it. So I chose leaders of each of the clans, and I wrote down their names. On December 29, these men came and sat down to investigate the matter.
Sürgündən qayıdanlar bu sözə əməl etdi. Kahin Ezra hər nəsildən nəsil başçısını seçib hamısının adını bəyan etdi. Onuncu ayın birində isə oturub bu işi araşdırmağa başladılar.
17 By March 27 of the next year they finished determining which men had married women who were not Israelis.
Onlar birinci ayın birinci gününə qədər yadelli arvad alanların hamısı barədə lazımi qərar çıxartdılar.
