< Ezra 10 >
1 Yayinda Ezra yake addu’a, yake kuma furta laifi, yana kuka, yana a durƙushe da kansa ƙasa a gaban gidan Allah, sai babban taron jama’ar Isra’ilawa, maza, mata da yara, suka taru a wurinsa. Su ma suka yi kuka mai zafi.
Now when Ezra had prayed, and when he had confessed, weeping and casting himself down before the house of God, there assembled to him out of Israel a very great congregation of men and women and children: for the people wept very bitterly.
2 Sai Shekaniya ɗan Yehiyel, daga zuriyar Elam ya ce wa Ezra, “Mun yi wa Allah rashin aminci ta wurin yin auratayya da maƙwabtanmu, amma duk da haka bai yashe mutanen Isra’ila ba.
And Shechaniah the son of Jehiel, [one] of the sons of Elam, answered and said to Ezra, We have trespassed against our God, and have taken foreign wives of the people of the land: yet now there is hope in Israel concerning this thing.
3 Yanzu bari mu yi alkawari da Allahnmu, mu kori matan da yaransu bisa ga abin da ranka yă daɗe da sauran shugabannin da kuke girmama umarnin Allah kuka shawarce mu, bari mu yi haka bisa ga doka.
Now therefore let us make a covenant with our God to put away all the wives, and such as are born of them, according to the counsel of my lord, and of those that tremble at the commandment of our God; and let it be done according to the law.
4 Sai ka tashi, gama wannan hakkinka ne, za mu ba ka goyon baya. Saboda haka ka yi ƙarfin hali ka aikata shi.”
Arise; for [this] matter [belongeth] to thee: we also [will be] with thee: be of good courage, and do [it].
5 Sai Ezra ya tashi ya sa firistoci da suke shugabanni, da Lawiyawa, da dukan mutanen Isra’ila su rantse, cewa za su yi abin da aka ce. Sai suka yi rantsuwar.
Then arose Ezra, and made the chief priests, the Levites, and all Israel, to swear that they would do according to this word. And they swore.
6 Sa’an nan Ezra ya tashi daga gidan Allah ya tafi gidan Yehohanan ɗan Eliyashib, a can ma bai ci wani abu ba, bai sha ruwa ba domin ya ci gaba da yin baƙin cikin rashin aminci na waɗanda suka dawo daga bauta.
Then Ezra arose from before the house of God, and went into the chamber of Johanan the son of Eliashib: and [when] he came thither, he ate no bread, nor drank water: for he mourned because of the transgression of them that had been carried away.
7 Aka yi shela a duk fāɗin Yahuda da Urushalima cewa dukan waɗanda suka dawo daga bauta su tattaru a Urushalima.
And they made proclamation throughout Judah and Jerusalem to all the children of the captivity, that they should assemble at Jerusalem;
8 Duk wanda bai zo a cikin kwana uku ba, za a washe shi, a kuma ware shi daga jama’ar da suka dawo daga bauta. Haka shugabanni da dattawa suka zartar.
And that whoever would not come within three days, according to the counsel of the princes and the elders, all his substance should be forfeited, and himself separated from the congregation of those that had been carried away.
9 A cikin kwana uku duk mutanen Yahuda da na Benyamin suka taru a Urushalima. A ranar ashirin ga watan tara, dukan mutanen suka zauna a dandali a gaban gidan Allah cike da ɓacin rai saboda abin da ya faru da kuma ruwan da aka yi.
Then all the men of Judah and Benjamin assembled at Jerusalem within three days. It [was] the ninth month, and the twentieth [day] of the month; and all the people sat in the street of the house of God, trembling because of [this] matter, and for the great rain.
10 Sai Ezra firist ya miƙe tsaye ya yi musu magana ya ce, “Kun yi rashin aminci; kun aure mata baƙi, ta haka kuka ƙara kan zunubin Isra’ila.
And Ezra the priest stood up, and said to them, Ye have transgressed, and have taken foreign wives to increase the trespass of Israel.
11 Yanzu sai ku furta zunubanku ga Ubangiji, Allahn kakanninku, ku kuma yi nufinsa. Ku raba kanku da mutanen da suke kewaye da ku, ku kuma rabu da baƙin mata.”
Now therefore make confession to the LORD God of your fathers, and do his pleasure: and separate yourselves from the people of the land, and from the foreign wives.
12 Mutanen kuwa suka tā da murya da ƙarfi suka ce, “Gaskiya ka faɗa, dole mu yi yadda ka ce,
Then all the congregation answered and said with a loud voice, As thou hast said, so must we do.
13 Amma akwai mutane da yawa, kuma lokacin damina ne; saboda haka ba za mu iya tsayawa a waje ba. Ban da haka ma, aikin nan ba na kwana ɗaya ko biyu ba ne, domin ba ƙaramin laifi muka yi ba.
But the people [are] many, and [it is] a time of much rain, and we are not able to stand abroad, neither [is this] a work of one day or two: for we are many that have transgressed in this thing.
14 Bari shugabanninmu su yi wani abu a madadin mutane duka, sa’an nan sai duk wanda ya san ya auri baƙuwar mace a garuruwanmu, sai yă zo nan a lokacin da aka shirya tare da dattawa da alƙalan kowane gari, har sai Allah ya huce fushinsa mai zafi da yake kanmu.”
Let now our rulers of all the congregation stand, and let all them who have taken foreign wives in our cities come at appointed times, and with them the elders of every city, and its judges, until the fierce wrath of our God for this matter shall be turned from us.
15 Yonatan ɗan Asahel, da Yazehiya ɗan Tikba su ne kaɗai ba su yarda da wannan shirin ba, sai Meshullam da Shabbetai Balawe kuma suka goyi bayansu.
Only Jonathan the son of Asahel and Jahaziah the son of Tikvah were employed about this [matter]: and Meshullam and Shabbethai the Levite helped them.
16 Sai waɗanda suka dawo daga bauta suka yi yadda aka zartar. Ezra firist ya zaɓi mutane waɗanda su ne shugabannin iyalai, ɗaya daga kowane sashe, aka rubuta sunan kowannensu. A ranar ɗaya ga watan goma kuwa suka zauna don su yi binciken waɗannan abubuwa.
And the children of the captivity did so. And Ezra the priest, [with] certain chief of the fathers, after the house of their fathers, and all of them by [their] names, were separated, and sat down in the first day of the tenth month to examine the matter.
17 A rana ta farko ga watan farko, suka gama da bincike duk waɗanda suka auri baƙin mata.
And they made an end with all the men that had taken foreign wives by the first day of the first month.
18 A cikin zuriyar firistoci, ga waɗanda suka auri mata baƙi. Daga zuriyar Yeshuwa ɗan Yozadak da’yan’uwansa, akwai Ma’asehiya, da Eliyezer, da Yarib, da Gedaliya.
And among the sons of the priests there were found that had taken foreign wives: [namely], of the sons of Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and his brethren; Maaseiah, and Eliezer, and Jarib, and Gedaliah.
19 (Su ne suka miƙa hannuwansu suka nuna sun yarda su kori matansu baƙi, kowannensu kuma ya ba da rago daga cikin garkensa don a miƙa hadaya don zunubi.)
And they gave their hands that they would put away their wives; and [being] guilty, [they offered] a ram of the flock for their trespass.
