Ezra 9
1 “Idi nalpas dagitoy a banbanag, immasideg kaniak dagiti opisial ket kinunada, 'Dagiti tattao ti Israel, dagiti padi, ken dagiti Levita ket saanda nga inlasin dagiti bagida manipud kadagiti kinarimon dagiti tattao iti sabali a daga a: Canaanita, Heteo, Perezeo, Jebuseo, ken Ammonitas, Moabitas, Egipcios, ken dagiti Amoreos.
And at the completion of these things, drawn nigh unto me have the heads, saying, 'The people of Israel, and the priests, and the Levites, have not been separated from the peoples of the lands, as to their abominations, even the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Jebusite, the Ammonite, the Moabite, the Egyptian, and the Amorite,
2 Gapu ta innalada dagiti dadduma nga annakda a babbai ken lallaki, ket inlaokda dagiti nasantoan a tattao kadagiti tattao iti sabali a daga. Ket dagiti pay opisial ken mangidadaulo ti nangiyun-una iti daytoy a kina-awan ti pammati.'
for they have taken of their daughters to them, and to their sons, and the holy seed have mingled themselves among the peoples of the lands, and the hand of the heads and of the seconds have been first in this trespass.'
3 Idi nangngegko daytoy, rinay-abko ti pagan-anay ken ti kagayko ken pinarutko dagiti buok iti ulok ken ti barbasko. Ket nagtugawak a mababain.
And at my hearing this word, I have rent my garment and my upper robe, and pluck out of the hair of my head, and of my beard, and sit astonished,
4 Amin dagidiay a nagtigerger iti sasao ti Dios ti Israel maipanggep iti daytoy a kinaawan pammati ket naguummong iti ayanko kabayatan nga agtugtugawak a mababain agingga iti rabii a panagidatag iti daton.
and unto me are gathered every one trembling at the words of the God of Israel, because of the trespass of the removal, and I am sitting astonished till the present of the evening.
5 Ngem iti panagidaton iti rabii, nagtakderak manipud iti pwesto a nakaibabainak a naray-ab ti pagan-anay ken kagayko, nagparintumengak ket inyunnatko dagiti imak kenni Yahweh a Diosko.
And at the present of the evening I have risen from mine affliction, and at my rending my garment and my upper robe, then I bow down on my knees, and spread out my hands unto Jehovah my God,
6 Kinunak: 'Diosko, mababainak unay a mangitangad iti rupak kenka, ta nangatngaton dagiti nadagsen a basolmi ngem ti ulomi, ken dimmanonen kadagiti langit ti biddutmi.
and say, 'O my God, I have been ashamed, and have blushed to lift up, O my God, my face unto Thee, for our iniquities have increased over the head, and our guilt hath become great unto the heavens.
7 Manipud kadagiti al-aldaw dagiti kapuonanmi agingga ita ket adun ti nagbasolanmi. Gapu kadagiti nadagsen a basolmi, dakami, dagiti arimi, ken dagiti padimi ket naipaimakami kadagiti ari iti daytoy a lubong, iti kampilan, iti pannaka-ibalud, ken iti pannakasamsam ken iti pannakaibabain, kas iti kasasaadmi ita.
'From the days of our fathers we [are] in great guilt unto this day, and in our iniquities we have been given — we, our kings, our priests — into the hand of the kings of the lands, with sword, with captivity, and with spoiling, and with shame of face, as [at] this day.
8 Ngem ita, iti apagbiit a tiempo, immay ti asi manipud kenni Yahweh a Diosmi a nangibati kadakami kadagiti dadduma a nakalasat ken mangted kadakami iti namnama iti nasantoan a lugarna. Ti Dios ti nanglawag kadagiti matami ken nangted iti bassit nga inana manipud iti pannakatagabumi.
'And now, as a small moment hath grace been from Jehovah our God, to leave to us an escape, and to give to us a nail in His holy place, by our God's enlightening our eyes, and by giving us a little quickening in our servitude;
9 Ta tagabukami, ngem saannakami a nalipatan ti Diosmi ngem pinagtalinaedna ti kinapudnona iti tulagna kadakami. Inaramidna daytoy iti imatang ti ari ti Persia tapno pabilgennakami, tapno maibangonmi manen ti balay iti Diosmi ken maitarimaan dagiti dadaelna. Inaramidna daytoy tapno maikkanakami iti pader iti pannakasalaknib idiay Juda ken Jerusalem.
for servants we [are], and in our servitude our God hath not forsaken us, and stretcheth out unto us kindness before the kings of Persia, to give to us a quickening to lift up the house of our God, and to cause its wastes to cease, and to give to us a wall in Judah and in Jerusalem.
10 Ngem ita, O Diosmi, ania ti makunami kalpasan daytoy? Nalipatanmi dagiti bilinmo,
'And now, what do we say, O our God, after this? for we have forsaken Thy commands,
11 dagiti bilin nga intedmo kadagiti adipenmo a dagiti profeta, idi imbagam, “Daytoy a daga a serserkanyo tapno tagikuaen ket narugit a daga. Rinugitan daytoy dagiti tattao iti daga babaen kadagiti makarimon nga aramidda. Agsinumbangir a pinunnoda daytoy babaen kadagiti kinarugitda.
that Thou hast commanded by the hands of thy servants the prophets, saying, The land into which ye are going to possess it, [is] a land of impurity, by the impurity of the people of the lands, by their abominations with which they have filled it — from mouth unto mouth — by their uncleanness;
12 Isu nga ita, saanmo nga ipaasawa dagiti annakmo a babbai kadagiti annakda a lallaki; saanmo nga ipaasawa kadagiti annakmo a lallaki kadagiti annakda a babbai, ken saanyo a sapulen ti madama a kinatalna ken ti kinarang-ayda, tapno pumigsakayo ken kanenyo ti nasayaat iti daga, tapno tawiddento daytoy dagiti annakyo iti agnanayon.”
and now, your daughters ye do not give to their sons, and their daughters ye do not take to your sons, and ye do not seek their peace, and their good — unto the age, so that ye are strong, and have eaten the good of the land, and given possession to your sons unto the age.
13 Ngem kalpasan ti amin a dimteng kadakami gapu kadagiti dakes nga aramidmi ken kadagiti nakaro a basolmi—agsipud ta sika, a Diosmi, binabawim ti maikari a dusa kadagiti nadagsen a nagbasolanmi ket intulokmo a makalasatkami—
'And after all that hath come upon us for our evil works, and for our great guilt (for Thou, O our God, hast kept back of the rod from our iniquities, and hast given to us an escape like this),
14 salungasingenmi kadi manen dagiti bilbilinmo ket makiasawa kadagitoy a makarimon a tattao? Saankanto kadi a makaunget ket ikisapnakami tapno awan ti uray maysa a mabati ket awan ti uray maysa a makalibas?
do we turn back to break Thy commands, and to join ourselves in marriage with the people of these abominations? art not Thou angry against us — even to consumption — till there is no remnant and escaped part?
15 Yahweh a Dios ti Israel, nalintegka, ta nagtalinaedkami a bassit a nakalasat iti daytoy nga aldaw. Adtoy! Adda kami iti sangoanam kadagiti biddutmi, ta awan ti uray maysa a makatakder iti sangoanam gapu iti daytoy.”'
'O Jehovah, God of Israel, righteous [art] Thou, for we have been left an escape, as [it is] this day; lo, we [are] before Thee in our guilt, for there is none to stand before Thee concerning this.'
