< 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.
Esdras menm te ajenou toujou, fas atè, devan Kay Bondye a, li t'ap lapriyè. Dlo nan je, li t'ap rekonèt tout fòt pèp la te fè devan Bondye. Pandan li t'ap fè sa, yon foul moun pèp Izrayèl la, gason, fanm ak timoun, vin sanble fè wonn bò kote l'. Dlo t'ap ponpe nan je yo tout.
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,
Le sa a, Chekanya, pitit gason Jeyèl la, nan branch fanmi Elam lan, pran lapawòl. Li di Esdras konsa: -Nou trayi Bondye nou an vre lè nou pran fanm lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan peyi a pou madanm nou. Men malgre sa, mwen kwè gen espwa toujou pou pèp Izrayèl la.
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;
Nou tout pral pran angajman an piblik devan Bondye pou nou ranvwaye tout medam sa yo ansanm ak pitit yo fè pou nou. Wi, mèt, nou pral swiv konsèy ou menm ak lòt moun ki gen respè pou kòmandman Bondye nou an te ban nou. Se pou nou fè tou sa lalwa Bondye a mande nou fè.
4 rise, for on thee [is] the matter, and we [are] with thee; be strong, and do.'
Leve non! Se ou menm ki pou regle bagay sa a. N'ap kanpe la avè ou! Kouraj! Annavan!
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.
Lè sa a, Esdras leve, li fè chèf prèt yo, chèf moun Levi yo ak tout rès moun yo sèmante yo pral fè sa Chekanya te di a. Yo sèmante vre.
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.
Apre sa, Esdras ale lakay Jokanan, pitit gason Eliyachib la, sou devan tanp Bondye a. Li pase nwit lan la, san manje, san bwè, paske li te nan gwo lapenn dèske moun yo te depòte epi ki te tounen nan peyi a pa t' kenbe pawòl yo.
7 And they cause a voice to pass over into Judah and Jerusalem, to all sons of the removal, to be gathered to Jerusalem,
Yo fè yon piblikasyon nan tout peyi Jida a ak nan lavil Jerizalèm, pou mande tout moun ki te tounen soti nan peyi kote yo te depòte yo a pou yo tout te reyini lavil Jerizalèm.
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.
Si yon moun kite twa jou pase li pa moute, tout chèf yo ak tout moun ki an tèt branch fanmi yo te dakò pou yo te sezi tout byen moun sa a, pou yo te fè tanp Bondye a kado l', lèfini pou yo pa t' konsidere l' tankou moun sosyete a ankò avèk rès moun ki te tounen soti kote yo te depòte yo a.
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.
Nan twa jou vre, ki te ventyèm jou nan nevyèm mwa a, tout gason ki t'ap viv sou pòsyon tè ki te pou branch fanmi Jida ak branch fanmi Benjamen yo te sanble lavil Jerizalèm. Yo rete sou plas piblik ki devan tanp Bondye a. Yon gwo lapli t'ap tonbe. Tout moun t'ap tranble, yo te frèt, men yo te pè tou paske se te yon gwo zafè.
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;
Lè sa a, Esdras, prèt la, leve, li di yo: -Lè nou marye ak fanm lòt nasyon yo, se trayi nou trayi Bondye. Se mete nou mete sou tou sa k'ap fèt mal deja nan mitan pèp Izrayèl la.
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.'
Men koulye a, rekonèt devan Seyè a, Bondye zansèt nou yo, sa nou fè ki mal la. Fè sa li vle nou fè a: pran distans nou ak moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan peyi a. Separe ak fanm nou te pran pami lòt nasyon yo pou madanm.
12 And all the assembly answer and say [with] a great voice, 'Right; according to thy word — on us to do;
Tout pèp la pran reponn byen fò: -Wi. N'ap fè tou sa ou mande nou fè!
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.
Men pèp la anpil. Se sezon lapli. Nou pa ka rete deyò a konsa. Epitou, se pa bagay k'ap pran yon jou osinon de jou, paske gen anpil nan nou ki koupab nan zafè sa a.
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.'
Se pou chèf nou yo rete isit la nan plas nou pou regle bagay la. Nan dat y'a fikse a, tout moun nan peyi a ki marye ak yon fanm lòt nasyon va vin parèt devan yo. Chèf fanmi yo ak jij k'ap dirije lavil kote moun lan rete a va vin avè l'. Konsa konsa, jouk kòlè Bondye ki te tonbe sou nou poutèt bagay sa a va bese.
15 Only Jonathan son of Asahel, and Jahaziah son of Tikvah, stood against this, and Meshullam, and Shabbethai the Levite, helped them.
Tout moun te dakò esepte Jonatan, pitit gason Asayèl, ak Jaksya, pitit gason Tikva a, ki te kont. Machoulam ak Chabtayi, yon moun Levi, te pran pozisyon ak yo tou.
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;
Men, moun ki te tounen soti nan peyi kote yo te depòte yo a te dakò ak sa yo te mande yo fè a. Esdras, prèt la, fè chwazi kèk moun ki te chèf branch fanmi pou ede l' nan travay la. Li pran non yo sou lis. Epi se konsa, depi premye jou dizyèm mwa a yo chita nan tribinal, y'ap egzaminen ka chak moun yonn apre lòt.
17 and they finish with all the men who have settled strange women unto the first day of the first month.
Apre twa mwa, jou pou jou, lè premye jou premye mwa a rive, yo te fin regle zafè tout moun ki te marye ak fanm lòt nasyon yo.
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;
Men lis gason ki te marye ak fanm lòt nasyon yo: Pami prèt yo, nan branch fanmi Jozye a, pitit Jeozadak la ak nan branch fanmi frè l' yo, te gen Maseja, Elyezè ak Gedalya.
19 and they give their hand to send out their wives, and, being guilty, a ram of the flock, for their guilt.
Yo fè sèman y'ap ranvwaye madanm yo, epi yo ofri yon belye mouton bay Seyè a pou mande li padon pou fòt yo te fè a.
