1 Esi Ezra nɔ gbe dom ɖa, nɔ nu vɔ̃ me ʋum, nɔ avi fam, eye wòtsɔ eɖokui nɔ xaxlãm ɖe anyi le Mawu ƒe aƒe la ŋkume la, Israelviwo ƒe ameha gã aɖe, ŋutsuwo, nyɔnuwo kple ɖeviwo va ƒo ƒu ɖe eŋu. Woawo hã wofa avi vevie.
Kwathi uEzra esakhuleka esavuma, ekhala inyembezi eziwisela phansi phambi kwendlu kaNkulunkulu, kwabuthana kuye ibandla elikhulu kakhulu lamadoda labesifazana labantwana, livela kuIsrayeli, ngoba abantu bakhala inyembezi ngokukhala okukhulu.
2 Tete Yehiel ƒe vi, Sekania, Elam ƒe dzidzimeviwo dometɔ ɖeka, gblɔ na Ezra be, “Míeto nyateƒe na míaƒe Mawu la o, to dutanyɔnuwo ɖeɖe me tso dukɔ siwo ƒo xlã mí la me. Togbɔ be ele alea hã la, mɔkpɔkpɔ gali na Israel ko.
UShekaniya indodana kaJehiyeli owamadodana kaElamu wasephendula wathi kuEzra: Thina siphambukile kuNkulunkulu wethu, sathatha abafazi bezizweni abavela ezizweni zelizwe; kodwa khathesi kukhona ithemba koIsrayeli mayelana lalokhu.
3 Azɔ la, mina míabla nu le míaƒe Mawu la ŋkume be míatrɔ nyɔnu siawo katã kple woƒe viwo aɖo ɖa, le nye aƒetɔ ƒe aɖaŋuɖoɖo kple ame siwo vɔ̃a míaƒe Mawu la ƒe sededewo ƒe nya nu. Mina míawɔe ɖe sea nu.
Ngakho-ke asenze isivumelwano loNkulunkulu wethu ukuze sikhuphe bonke abafazi lokuzelwe yibo ngokweseluleko senkosi yami lesabathuthumela emlayweni kaNkulunkulu wethu; kakwenziwe-ke ngokomlayo.
4 Tsi tsitre, nya sia le asiwò me. Míade megbe na wò, eya ta tso nàlé dzi ɖe ƒo eye nàwɔe.”
Sukuma, ngoba udaba luphezu kwakho, lathi silawe. Qina, wenze.
5 Ale Ezra tsitre eye wòna nunɔla tsitsiawo, Levitɔwo kple Israel blibo la ka atam be woawɔ ɖe susu si wodo ɖa la dzi. Tete woka atam la.
Wasesukuma uEzra, wafungisa induna zabapristi, amaLevi, loIsrayeli wonke, ukuthi benze ngokwalelilizwi. Basebefunga.
6 Ale Ezra dzo le Mawu ƒe aƒe la ŋkume heyi ɖe Yehohanan, Eliasib ƒe vi ƒe xɔ me. Esi wònɔ afi ma la, meɖu nu alo no tsi o, elabena eganɔ konyi fam ko tso aboyometsolawo ƒe nuteƒemawɔmawɔ ŋu.
UEzra wasesukuma esuka phambi kwendlu kaNkulunkulu, waya endlini kaJehohanani indodana kaEliyashibi; wathi efika lapho kadlanga sinkwa kanathanga manzi, ngoba elilela ububi babathunjiweyo.
7 Le esia megbe la, woɖe gbeƒã le Yuda kple Yerusalem katã be ame siwo katã gbɔ tso aboyome la naƒo ƒu ɖe Yerusalem.
Basebesenza isimemezelo sedlule koJuda leJerusalema kubo bonke abantwana bokuthunjwa ukuthi babuthane eJerusalema,
8 Ame si meva le ŋkeke etɔ̃ me o la, abu eƒe nunɔamesiwo katã le ametsitsiawo kple dɔnunɔlawo ƒe nyametsotso nu, eye woaɖe amea ɖa le aboyometsolawo ƒe hame.
lokuthi loba ngubani ongafikanga ngensuku ezintathu, ngokweseluleko seziphathamandla labadala, impahla yakhe yonke izadliwa, yena ehlukaniswe lebandla labathunjiweyo.
9 Le ŋkeke etɔ̃ me la, Yuda kple Benyamin ŋutsuwo katã va ƒo ƒu ɖe Yerusalem. Ale le dzinu asiekelia ƒe ŋkeke blaevea gbe la, ameawo katã va nɔ anyi ɖe xɔxɔnu si dze ŋgɔ Mawu ƒe aƒe la. Wonɔ dzodzom nyanyanya le nya sia kple tsi gã si nɔ dzadzam la ta.
Wonke amadoda akoJuda loBhenjamini asebuthana eJerusalema ngensuku ezintathu. Kwakuyinyanga yesificamunwemunye ngolwamatshumi amabili lwenyanga. Bonke abantu basebehlala egumeni lendlu kaNkulunkulu beqhaqhazela ngenxa yaloludaba langenxa yezulu elikhulu.
10 Nunɔla Ezra tsitre gblɔ na wo be, “Miewɔ nuteƒe o, mieɖe dutanyɔnuwo, hedzi Israel ƒe agɔdzedze ɖe edzi.
UEzra umpristi wasukuma wathi kibo: Lina liphambukile lathatha abafazi bezizweni, ukwandisa isiphambeko sikaIsrayeli.
11 Azɔ la, miʋu nu vɔ̃ me na Yehowa, mia fofowo ƒe Mawu la, eye miwɔ eƒe lɔlɔ̃nu. Miɖe mia ɖokuiwo ɖa tso dukɔ siwo ƒo xlã mi la gbɔ, eye miɖe asi le miaƒe dutanyɔnuwo ŋu.”
Ngakho-ke yenzani uvumo eNkosini uNkulunkulu waboyihlo, lenze intando yayo, lizehlukanise lezizwe zelizwe, lakubafazi bezizweni.
12 Ameha la ɖo eŋu nɛ kple gbe sesẽ be, “Wò nya la le eteƒe! Ele be míawɔ abe ale si nègblɔ ene,
Ibandla lonke laseliphendula lathi ngelizwi elikhulu: Njengamazwi akho, ngokunjalo kuphezu kwethu ukuthi sikwenze.
13 gake ame geɖewo le afi sia, eye wònye tsidzaŋɔli hã, ale míate ŋu anɔ tsitre ɖe gota o. Gawu la, womate ŋu awɔ nya sia ŋu dɔ le ŋkeke ɖeka alo eve me o, elabena míewɔ nu vɔ̃ gã aɖe le nu sia me.
Kodwa abantu banengi, njalo kuyisikhathi sezulu elinengi, njalo singeme phandle. Futhi kakusimsebenzi wosuku olulodwa njalo hatshi owezimbili, ngoba sibanengi esiphambukileyo kuloludaba.
14 Na be míaƒe amegãwo nawɔ dɔ ɖe ameha la nu, na be, ame siwo le míaƒe duwo me, esiwo ɖe dutanyɔnuwo la nava ɖe ɣeyiɣi ɖoɖiwo dzi kple dumegãwo kpakple ʋɔnudrɔ̃la siwo le du siwo me wotso la me va se ɖe esime míaƒe Mawu la ƒe dziku dziŋɔ la nakɔ ɖa le mía dzi.”
Ake zime iziphathamandla zethu zebandla lonke, labo bonke abasemizini yethu abathethe abafazi bezizweni beze ngezikhathi ezimisiweyo, njalo kanye labo abadala bomuzi ngomuzi labahluleli bawo, size sidedise ukuvutha kolaka lukaNkulunkulu wethu mayelana laloludaba.
15 Ame siwo tsi tsitre ɖe nya sia ŋu la koe nye, Yonatan, Asahel ƒe vi kple Yahzeya, Tikva ƒe vi eye Mesulam kple Sabetai, Levitɔ la, da megbe na wo.
NgoJonathani indodana kaAsaheli loJahazeya indodana kaTikiva kuphela abamelana lalokho; loMeshulamu loShabethayi umLevi babancedisa.
16 Ale aboyometsolawo wɔ abe ale si dzi woɖo kpee ene. Nunɔla Ezra tia ŋutsu siwo nye ƒometatɔwo, tso ƒome ɖe sia ɖe me, eye ɖe sia ɖe kple eƒe ŋkɔ. Le dzinu ewolia ƒe ŋkeke gbãtɔ dzi la, wonɔ anyi be woaku nya la me,
Abantwana bokuthunjwa besebesenza njalo. UEzra umpristi, amadoda, inhloko zaboyise ngendlu yaboyise, labo bonke ngamabizo, basebesehlukaniswa; basebehlala ngosuku lokuqala lwenyanga yetshumi ukuhlola loludaba.

Basebeqeda lawo wonke amadoda ayethethe abafazi bezizweni kwaze kwaba lusuku lokuqala lwenyanga yokuqala.
