Ezera 10
1 A PAU ka Ezera pule ana, a me ka uwe ana, a me ka moe ana imua o ka hale o ke Akua, hoakoakoaia ae la io na la he anaina kanaka nui loa o ka Iseraela, na kane, me na wahine a me na kamalii; no ka mea, he nui loa ka uwe o na kanaka.
Now when Esdras was thus praying, and beseeching, and weeping, and lying before the temple of God, there was gathered to him of Israel an exceeding great assembly of men and women and children, and the people wept with much lamentation.
2 A olelo mai o Sekania ke keiki a Iehiela, no na mamo a Elama, i mai la ia Ezera, Ua hana hewa makou i ke Akua, a ua lawe makou i na wahine e no na kanaka o ka aina: aka ano, he manaolana no iloko o ka Iseraela no keia mea.
And Sechenias the son of Jehiel of the sons of Elam answered, and said to Esdras: We have sinned against our God, and have taken strange wives of the people of the land: and now if there be repentance in Israel concerning this,
3 Ano hoi, e hoohiki kakou i ko kakou Akua e hookuke aku i na wahine a pau, a me na mea a lakou i hanau ai, e like me ke ao ana a kuu haku, a me ka poe e makau ana i ke kauoha a ko kakou Akua; a e hanaia ia mea ma ke kanawai.
Let us make a covenant with the Lord our God, to put away all the wives, and such as are born of them, according to the will of the Lord, and of them that fear the commandment of the Lord our God: let it be done according to the law.
4 E ku ae oe, no ka mea, ia oe no keia mea: o makou pu kekahi me oe; e ikaika oe, a e hana.
Arise, it is thy part to give orders, and we will be with thee: take courage, and do it.
5 Alaila ku ae la o Ezera, a hoohiki aku la i na kahuna nui, i na Levi, a me ka Iseraela a pau, e hana lakou e like me keia olelo. A hoohiki iho la lakou.
So Esdras arose, and made the chiefs of the priests and of the Levites, and all Israel, to swear that they would do according to this word, and they swore.
6 Alaila ku ae la o Ezera mai ke alo mai o ka hale o ke Akua, a komo iloko o ke keena o Iehohanana ke keiki a Eliasiba; a hiki aku ia ilaila, aole ia i ai i ka ai, aole hoi i inu i ka wai; no ka mea, uwe iho la ia no ka hewa o ka poe pio i hoi mai.
And Esdras rose up from before the house of God, and went to the chamber of Johanan the son of Eliasib, and entered in thither: he ate no bread, and drank no water: for he mourned for the transgression of them that were come out of the captivity.
7 A hai aku la lakou ma Iuda, a ma Ierusalema i ka poe pio a pau e honluulu lakou ma Ierusalema;
And proclamation was made in Juda and Jerusalem to all the children of the captivity, that they should assemble together into Jerusalem.
8 A o na mea a pau i hele ole mai i na la ekolu, e like me ke kauoha a na luna, a me ka poe kahiko, e hoolaaia kona waiwai a pau, a e hookaawaleia oia mai ko anaina kanaka aku o ka poe pio i lawe pio ia aku.
And that whosoever would not come within three days, according to the counsel of the princes and the ancients, all his substance should be taken away, and he should be cast out of the company of them that were returned from captivity.
9 Alaila hoakoakoaia ae la na kanaka a pau o ka Iuda, a o ka Beniamina i Ierusalema i na la ekolu, i ka iwa o ka malama, a i ka la iwakalua o ka malama; a noho iho la na kanaka a pau ma ke ala o ka hale o ke Akua, e haalulu ana no keia mea, a no ka ua nui.
Then all the men of Juda, and Benjamin gathered themselves together to Jerusalem within three days, in the ninth month, the twentieth day of the month: and all the people sat in the street of the house of God, trembling because of the sin, and the rain.
10 Ku ae la o Ezera ke kahuna, a olelo aku la ia lakou, Ua hana hewa oukou, a ua lawe i na wahine e, e hoomahuahua i ka hala o ka Iseraela.
And Esdras the priest stood up, and said to them: You have transgressed, and taken strange wives, to add to the sins of Israel.
11 Ano hoi, e hai aku oukou ia Iehova ke Akua o ko oukou poe makua, a e hana i kona makemake; a hookaawale oukou ia oukou iho mai na kanaka o ka aina aku, a mai na wahine e aku.
And now make confession to the Lord the God of your fathers, and do his pleasure, and separate yourselves from the people of the land, and from your strange wives.
12 Alaila olelo mai la ka ahakanaka a pau, i mai la me ka leo nui, E like me kau olelo, pela makou e hana aku ai.
And all the multitude answered and said with a loud voice: According to thy word unto us, so be it done.
13 Aka, ua nui na kanaka, a he manawa ua nui, aole e hiki ia makou ke ku mawaho, a o ka hana, aole ia no ka la hookahi, aole no na la elua; no ka mea, ua nui na mea o makou i hana hewa ma keia mea.
But as the people are many, and it is time of rain, and me are not able to stand without, and it is not a work of one day or two, (for we have exceedingly sinned in this matter, )
14 Ano hoi, e hoonohoia na luna o ka ahakanaka a pau, a o na mea a pau ma ko kakou mau kulanakauhale i lawe i na wahine e, e hele mai lakou i ka manawa maopopo, a me lakou pu no na lunakahiko o kela kulanakauhale keia kulanakauhale, a me na lunakanawai ona, a e hoohuli ae i ka inaina o ko kakou Akua mai o kakou aku no keia hewa.
Let rulers be appointed in all the multitude: and in all our cities, let them that have taken strange wives come at the times appointed, and with them the ancients and the judges of every city, until the wrath of our God be turned away from us for this sin.
15 O Ionatana wale no, ke keiki a Asahela, a o Iahazia ke keiki a Tikeva i noho no keia mea, a o Mesulama, a me Sabetai ka Levi, i kokua mai ia laua.
Then Jonathan the son of Azahel, and Jaasia the son of Thecua were appointed over this, and Mesollam and Sebethai, Levites, helped them:
16 A hana aku la pela ka poe pio i hoi mai. A o Ezera ke kahuna, me na kauaka koikoi o na makua, no ka hale o ko lakou mau makua, o lakou a pau ma ko lakou inoa i hookaawaleia, a noho iho la lakou i ka la mua o ka umi o ka malama e hookolokolo ai i keia mea.
And the children of the captivity did so. And Esdras the priest, and the men heads of the families in the houses of their fathers, and all by their names, went and sat down in the first day of the tenth month to examine the matter.
17 A hoopau lakou me na kanaka a pau i lawe i na wahine e, i ka la akahi o ka malama mua.
And they made an end with all the men that had taken strange wives by the first day of the first month.
18 A ua loaa iwaena o na keiki a na kahuna, na mea i lawe i na wahine e; no na mamo a Iesua ke keiki a Iozadaka, a me kona mau hoahanau, o Maaseia, a o Eliezera, o Iariba, a me Gedalia.
And there were found among the sons of the priests that had taken strange wives: Of the sons of Josue the son of Josedec, and his brethren, Maasia, and Eliezer, and Jarib, and Godolia.
19 A haawi mai lakou i ko lakou mau lima e hookuke aku i ka lakou mau wahine; a kaumaha aku lakou i ka hipakane o ka poe hipa i mohaihala no ko lakou lawehala ana.
