Ezara 10
1 Rĩrĩa Ezara aahooyaga akiumbũraga mehia na akĩrĩraga, o na akĩĩgũithagia thĩ hau nyũmba-inĩ ya Ngai-rĩ, gĩkundi kĩnene kĩa andũ a Isiraeli, kĩa arũme, na andũ-a-nja, na ciana, gĩkĩũngana gĩkĩmũthiũrũrũkĩria. O nao makĩrĩra marĩ na ruo mũno.
Whiles Ezra prayed thus, and confessed himselfe weeping, and falling downe before the house of God, there assembled vnto him of Israel a very great Congregation of men and women and children: for the people wept with a great lamentation.
2 Nake Shekania mũrũ wa Jehieli, ũmwe wa rũciaro rwa Elamu, akĩĩra Ezara atĩrĩ, “Tũkoretwo tũtarĩ ehokeku harĩ Ngai witũ nĩ ũndũ nĩtũhikĩtie andũ-a-nja kuuma ndũrĩrĩ iria itũthiũrũrũkĩirie. No o na kũrĩ ũguo-rĩ, Isiraeli no marĩ na kĩĩrĩgĩrĩro.
Then Shechaniah the sonne of Iehiel one of the sonnes of Elam answered, and sayd to Ezra, We haue trespassed against our God, and haue taken strange wiues of the people of the land, yet nowe there is hope in Israel concerning this.
3 Na rĩrĩ, nĩtũthondeke kĩrĩkanĩro tũrĩ mbere ya Ngai witũ atĩ nĩtũkũingata andũ-a-nja aya othe na ciana ciao, kũringana na mataaro ma mwathi wakwa, o na mataaro ma arĩa metigĩrĩte maathani ma Ngai witũ. Ũndũ ũyũ nĩwĩkwo kũringana na Watho.
Now therfore let vs make a couenant with our God, to put away all the wiues (and such as are borne of them) according to the counsell of the Lord, and of those that feare the commandements of our God, and let it be done according to the Lawe.
4 Arahũka; ũhoro ũyũ ũrĩ moko-inĩ maku. Ithuĩ tũrĩ hamwe nawe; nĩ ũndũ ũcio, wĩyũmĩrĩrie ũwĩke.”
Arise: for the matter belogeth vnto thee: we also wil be with thee: be of comfort and do it.
5 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Ezara akĩarahũka, agĩtũma atongoria a athĩnjĩri-Ngai na Alawii, o na andũ othe a Isiraeli mehĩte atĩ nĩmegwĩka ũrĩa kwerĩtwo. Nao makĩĩhĩta.
Then arose Ezra, and caused the chiefe Priestes, the Leuites, and all Israel, to sweare that they would doe according to this worde. So they sware.
6 Ningĩ Ezara akiuma hau mbere ya nyũmba ya Ngai, agĩthiĩ kanyũmba ka Jehohanani mũrũ wa Eliashibu. Arĩ kũu ndaigana kũrĩa irio kana kũnyua maaĩ tondũ aathiire o na mbere gũcakaya nĩ ũndũ andũ arĩa maatahĩtwo nĩmagĩte kwĩhokeka.
And Ezra rose vp from before the house of God, and went into the chamber of Iohanan the sonne of Eliashib: he went euen thither, but he did eate neither bread, nor drunke water: for he mourned, because of the transgression of them of the captiuitie.
7 Gũgĩcooka gũkĩanĩrĩrwo Juda na Jerusalemu guothe atĩ andũ othe arĩa maatahĩtwo mongane Jerusalemu.
And they caused a proclamation to goe throughout Iudah and Ierusalem, vnto all them of the captiuitie, that they should assemble themselues vnto Ierusalem.
8 Mũndũ o wothe ũngĩagire gũkinya Jerusalemu mĩthenya ĩtatũ ĩtanathira kũringana na itua rĩa anene na athuuri, atunywo indo ciake ciothe, nake we mwene aingatwo, ehere kĩũngano-inĩ kĩa andũ arĩa maatahĩtwo.
And whosoeuer woulde not come within three dayes according to the counsel of the Princes and Elders, all his substance should be forfait, and he should be separate from the Congregation of them of the captiuitie.
9 Mĩthenya ĩyo ĩtatũ ĩtanathira, arũme othe a Juda na Benjamini makĩũngana Jerusalemu. Naguo mũthenya wa mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ wa mweri wa kenda, andũ othe nĩmaikarĩte thĩ kĩhaaro-inĩ kĩrĩa kĩarĩ mbere ya nyũmba ya Ngai, mathĩnĩkĩte mũno tondũ wa ũndũ ũcio na nĩ ũndũ wa mbura.
Then all the men of Iudah and Beniamin assembled theselues vnto Ierusalem within three dayes, which was the twentieth day of the ninth moneth, and all the people sate in the streete of the house of God, trembling for this matter, and for the raine.
10 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Ezara ũcio mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai akĩrũgama na igũrũ, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Mũkoretwo mũtarĩ ehokeku; nĩmũhikĩtie andũ-a-nja a kũngĩ, mũgakĩongerera mahĩtia ma Isiraeli.
And Ezra the Priest stoode vp, and said vnto them, Ye haue transgressed, and haue taken strange wiues, to increase the trespasse of Israel.
11 Rĩu-rĩ, umbũrai mehia manyu kũrĩ Jehova Ngai wa maithe manyu, na mwĩke ũrĩa endaga. Mwĩyamũraniei na andũ arĩa mamũthiũrũrũkĩirie, o na atumia anyu a kũngĩ.”
Now therefore giue praise vnto the Lord God of your fathers, and do his will, and separate your selues from the people of the land, and from the strange wiues.
12 Kĩũngano gĩothe gĩgĩcookia na mũgambo mũnene atĩrĩ, “Nĩwoiga ũrĩa kwagĩrĩire! No nginya twĩke o ta ũguo woiga.
And all the Congregation answered, and sayd with a loude voyce, So will we do according to thy wordes vnto vs.
13 No rĩrĩ, andũ aya marĩ haha nĩ aingĩ, na nĩ hĩndĩ ya mbura; nĩ ũndũ ũcio tũtingĩikara nja. Ningĩ ũhoro ũyũ ndũngĩthondekeka na mũthenya ũmwe kana ĩĩrĩ, tondũ nĩtwĩhĩtie mũno ũndũ-inĩ ũyũ.
But the people are many, and it is a raynie weather, and we are not able to stande without, neither is it the worke of one day or two: for we are many that haue offended in this thing.
14 Reke anene aitũ marũgamĩrĩre kĩũngano gĩkĩ gĩothe. Ningĩ o mũndũ wothe ũrĩ matũũra-inĩ maitũ ũhikĩtie mũndũ-wa-nja wa kũngĩ nĩetĩkĩrio oke mahinda marĩa matuĩtwo, hamwe na athuuri na atuanĩri ciira a o itũũra, nginya twehererio marakara marĩa mahiũ ma Ngai witũ ũhoro-inĩ ũyũ.”
Let our rulers stand therefore before all the Congregation, and let all them which haue taken strange wiues in our cities, come at the time appoynted, and with them the Elders of euery citie and the Iudges thereof, til the fierce wrath of our God for this matter turne away from vs.
15 Andũ arĩa maareganire na ũhoro ũcio no Jonathani mũrũ wa Asaheli, na Jahazeia mũrũ wa Tikiva, hamwe na Meshulamu, na Shabethai ũrĩa Mũlawii.
Then were appoynted Ionathan the sonne of Asah-el, and Iahaziah the sonne of Tikuah ouer this matter, and Meshullam and Shabbethai the Leuites helped them.
16 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ arĩa maatahĩtwo magĩĩka o ta ũrĩa kwerĩtwo. Nake Ezara ũcio mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai agĩthuura arũme arĩa maarĩ atongoria a nyũmba ciao, o mũndũ ũmwe kuuma o nyũmba, o ũrĩa ciagayanĩtio, nao othe makĩandĩkwo marĩĩtwa mao. Mũthenya wa mbere wa mweri wa ikũmi magĩikara thĩ nĩguo matuĩrie maciira macio,
And they of the captiuitie did so, and departed, euen Ezra the Priest, and the men that were chiefe fathers to the familie of their fathers by name, and sate downe in the first day of the tenth moneth to examine the matter.
17 na gũgĩkinya mũthenya wa mbere wa mweri wa mbere, makĩrĩkia maciira ma arũme othe arĩa maahikĩtie andũ-a-nja a kũngĩ.
And vntill the first day of the first moneth they were finishing the businesse with al the men that had taken strange wiues.

19 (Othe makĩĩranĩra atĩ nĩmegũtigana na atumia ao, na o mũndũ akĩruta ndũrũme kuuma rũũru-inĩ rwake nĩ ũndũ wa iruta rĩa mahĩtia mao.)
