< 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 unto him out of Israel an assembly very great — men and women and children — for the people have wept, multiplying weeping.
Kane Ezra lemo kendo hulo richo, koywak kendo kongʼielore piny e nyim od Nyasaye, oganda maduongʼ mar jo-Israel; chwo, mon kod nyithindo nochokore kolwore. Gin bende ne giywak malit.
2 And Shechaniah son of Jehiel, of the sons of Elam, answereth and saith to Ezra, 'We — 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,
Eka Shekania wuod Jehiel, achiel kuom nyikwa Elam, nowachone Ezra niya, “Ok wasebedo jo-ratiro ni Nyasachwa kuom kendo nyiri ma ok jo-Yahudi. To kata ka wasetimo kamano, to jo-Israel pod nigi geno.
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;
Koro we walos singo e nyim Nyasachwa mondo oriemb mon-gi kod nyithindgi duto, kaluwore gi ngʼado rieko mar Ruoth Nyasachwa kod jogo moluoro chike mag Nyasachwa. We time kaluwore gi Chik.
4 rise, for on thee [is] the matter, and we [are] with thee; be strong, and do.'
Chungʼ malo; wachni ni e lweti. Wabiro konyi; omiyo jiwri kendo itime.”
5 And Ezra riseth, and causeth the heads of the priests, the Levites, and all Israel, to swear to do according to this word — and they swear.
Omiyo Ezra noa malo mi oketo jonabi gi jo-Lawi ma jotelo kod jo-Israel duto e bwo kwongʼruok mondo otim gima ne osepar. Omiyo negitimo kwongʼruokno.
6 And Ezra riseth from before the house of God, and goeth unto the chamber of Jehohanan son of Eliashib; yea, he goeth there, bread he hath not eaten, and water he hath not drunk, for he is mourning because of the trespass of the removal.
Eka Ezra noa e nyim od Nyasaye mi odhi e agoch Jehohanan wuod Eliashib. E sa mane en kanyo, ne ok ochamo chiemo kendo ne ok omodho pi, nikech nodhi nyime kokuyo kuom bedo maonge ratiro mar joma noa e twech.
7 And they cause a voice to pass over into Judah and Jerusalem, to all sons of the removal, to be gathered to Jerusalem,
Eka nogo milome e Juda kod Jerusalem ni jogo duto mane oa e twech mondo ochokre Jerusalem.
8 and every one who cometh not in by the third day, according to the counsel of the heads and of the elders, all his substance is devoted, and himself separated from the assembly of the removal.
Ngʼato angʼata ma ok onenore e thuolo mar ndalo adek biro lalo gige duto, kaluwore gi gima jotelo kod jodongo ongʼado, kendo enodire oko mar chokruok mar joma noa e twech.
9 And gathered are all the men of Judah and Benjamin 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.
Kuom thuolo mar ndalo adek joma chwo moa Juda kod Benjamin duto nochokore Jerusalem. To e odiechiengʼ mar piero ariyo mar dwe mar ochiko, ji nobet e laru manie nyim od Nyasaye, ka gionge gi kwe nikech wachno kendo nikech koth ne goyogi.
10 And Ezra the priest riseth, and saith unto them, 'Ye — ye have trespassed, and ye settle strange women, to add to the guilt of Israel;
Eka Ezra ma jadolo noa malo kendo owachonegi niya, “Usebedo joma ok nikare; usekendo mond dhoudi mamoko, mumedo ketho mar jo-Israel.
11 and, now, make confession to Jehovah, God of your fathers, and do His good pleasure, and be separated from the peoples of the land, and from the strange women.'
Koro miuru Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach kwereu duongʼ, kendo utim dwarone. Thegreuru gi joma ni butu kod mondeu mag dhoudi mamoko.”
12 And all the assembly answer and say [with] a great voice, 'Right; according to thy word — on us to do;
Chokruok mar ogandani duto nodwoko gi dwol maduongʼ niya, “In kare! Nyaka watim kaka iwacho.
13 but the people [are] many, and [it is] the time of showers, and there is no power to stand without, and the work [is] not for one day, nor for two, for we have multiplied to transgress in this thing.
To nitiere ji mangʼeny kae kendo en kinde koth, omiyo ok wanyal chungʼ oko. Ewi mano wachni ok nyal losi gi ndalo achiel kata ariyo, nikech wasetimo richo maduongʼ e gini.
14 'Let, we pray thee, our heads of all the assembly stand, and all who [are] in our cities, who have settled strange wives, do come in at the times appointed, and with them the elders of city and city, and its judges, till the turning back of the fury of the wrath of our God from us, for this thing.'
We jotendwa otime e lo chokruokni duto. Eka we ngʼato ka ngʼato mosekendo nyi joma ok jo-Yahudi obi e sa moketi, kaachiel gi jodongo kod jongʼad bura moa dala ka dala, nyaka mirima mager mar Nyasachwa kuom wachni ogol kuomwa.”
15 Only Jonathan son of Asahel, and Jahaziah son of Tikvah, stood against this, and Meshullam, and Shabbethai the Levite, helped them.
Ji duto noyie timo kamano, makmana Jonathan wuod Asahel gi Jazeya wuod Tikva, koriwe lwedo gi Meshulam kod Shabethai ja-Lawi, ema notamore.
16 And the sons of the removal 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;
Omiyo joma noa e twech notimo kaka nochan. Ezra jadolo noyiero chwo mane jotend dhoudi, achiel koa e migawo mar dhoot ka dhoot, kendo giduto noluongogi gi nying-gi. E odiechiengʼ mokwongo mar dwe mar apar negibedo piny mondo ginon wechegi,
17 and they finish with all the men who have settled strange women unto the first day of the first month.
kendo kochopo odiechiengʼ mokwongo mar dwe mokwongo negitieko gi chwo mane okendo mon moa e dhoudi mamoko.
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 brethren, Maaseiah, and Eliezer, and Jarib, and Gedaliah;
Kuom nyikwa jodolo, magi ema nokendo nyi joma ok jo-Yahudi. Koa e nyikwa Jeshua wuod Jozadak, kod owetene: Maseya, Eliezer, Jarib gi Gedalia.
19 and they give their hand to send out their wives, and, being guilty, a ram of the flock, for their guilt.
Negitingʼo bedegi kaka singruok mar riembo mondegi, kendo kuom ketho mag-gi negichiwo im ngʼato ka ngʼato koa e kweth kaka misango mar pwodhruok e ketho.
