Lapho u-Ezra wayekhuleka njalo evuma izono, ekhala eziwisela phansi phambi kwendlu kaNkulunkulu, ixuku elikhulu labako-Israyeli kubalisa amadoda labafazi labantwana, babuthana kuye. Labo bakhala kabuhlungu.
2 Anante Elamu nagapinti Jehieli nemofo Sekania'a Ezrante eno amanage huno hu'ne, Tagra Anumzantimofo kea rutagreta megi'a vahepintira a'nea eri'none. Hianagi mago kankamuna me'neankita ana hazenke zama atresanunkeno'a, Ra Anumzamo'a tazeri havizana osugahie.
Yikho uShekhaniya indodana kaJehiyeli, omunye wesizukulwane sika-Elamu, wathi ku-Ezra, “Kasizange sithembeke kuNkulunkulu wethu ngoba sathatha abafazi bezizweni ebantwini esakhelene labo. Kodwa loba kunjalo ithemba lisekhona ngo-Israyeli.
3 Hanki menina Ra Anumzantimofo avure mago huvempa ke huta, megi'a a'nanetine mofavre naga'zaminena huzmantenunke'za mopa zamirega vugahaze. Hanki Ezragane Anumzamofo ke'ma amage'ma nentaza vahe'mo'zanema tasamisnaza kante anteta anara hugahune. E'inahu'ma hanunana Anumzamofo kasegefima hu'nea kante amage anteta anara hugahune.
Manje kasenzeni isivumelwano phambi kukaNkulunkulu wethu ukubalahla bonke labobafazi labantwababo njengeseluleko senkosi yami lalabo abayesabayo imilayo kaNkulunkulu wethu. Kakwenziwe ngendlela yoMthetho.
4 E'ina hu'negu Ezraga kagri eri'zanki otinka ama ana knazana eri fatgo huo. Tagra keka'a antahigamita nazanoma hanana zana tro hugahunanki, korora osunka oti hanavetinenka ana eri'za erio.
Sukuma; indaba le isezandleni zakho. Thina sizakusekela, yikho yiba lesibindi ukwenze.”
5 Anagema higeno Ezra'a otino ugota pristi vahe'ene Livae naga'ene ana maka Israeli vahe'mokizmia zamasamino, Huvempa kema hutma Sekania'ma hia kea amage antegahune hutma huvempa hiho hige'za ana hu'naze.
Ngakho u-Ezra waphakama wafungisa bonke abakhokheli babaphristi labaLevi lo-Israyeli wonke ukwenza lokho okwakumisiwe. Basenza lesosifungo.
6 Hanki Ezra'ma Ra Anumzamofo mono nomofo avugama mani'neretira atreno vuno, Eliasipi nemofo Jehohanani'ma nemasefinka vu'ne. Anampinka ne'zane tinena a'o huno mani'neno, Israeli vahe'ma kinafintima e'naza vahe'mo'zama hu'naza kumikura tusi zavi neteno asuzampi mani'ne.
U-Ezra wasesuka endlini kaNkulunkulu waya endlini kaJehohanani indodana ka-Eliyashibi. Elapho kadlanga lutho njalo kazange anathe manzi, ngoba waqhubeka elilela ukungathembeki kwezithunjwa.
7 Hanki anante Juda kva vahe'mo'zane eri'za vahe'mo'zanema Babiloni kinafinti'ma atre'za e'za Jerusalemi kumapine Juda kumapima emani'naza vahera, Jerusalemi kumate maka eme tru hiho, hu'za kea atre'zmante'naze.
Kwasekukhutshwa isimemezelo kulolonke elakoJuda kanye leJerusalema ukuthi zonke izithunjwa kaziqoqane eJerusalema.
8 Hanki iza'o 3'a zagemofo agu'afima omesia vahe'mofona, ranra vahe'mo'zane kva vahe'mo'zama hanaza kante ante'za, fenozama'a eri hana nehu'za, kinama hute'za e'naza Israeli naga'pintira ahenatitregahaze.
Ingqe ngubani ongafikanga phakathi kwensuku ezintathu wayezathathelwa yonke impahla alayo, kulandelwa isinqumo sezinduna labadala, kuthi yena ngokwakhe axotshwe emphakathini walabo ababethunjiwe.
9 Hanki 3'a zagemofo agu'afi ana maka Juda naga'ene Benjamini naga'moza Jerusalemi kumate eme tru hu'naze. Ana'ma eme atru hu'nazana 9ni ikamofona 20ti zupa maka Anumzamofo mono nomofo avuga eme atru hu'za mani'nazageno, ana zupa tusi'a ko nerigeno, atru'ma hu'nafima efore'ma hanige'za antahisaza kegu'enena tusi zamahirahite'ne.
Phakathi kwalezonsuku ezintathu wonke amadoda akoJuda lakoBhenjamini ayesebuthene eJerusalema. Kwathi ngelanga lamatshumi amabili lenyanga yesificamunye bonke abantu babehlezi esigcawini phambi kwendlu kaNkulunkulu, bekhathazekile ngombuthano lowo njalo begxanxwa lizulu elalisina.
10 Hanki anante pristi ne' Ezra'a otino amanage huno zamasami'ne, Tamagra Ra Anumzamofo tra kea tamefi humita, megi'a a'nanea erita Israeli vahe'mota kna eriramize.
Kwathi u-Ezra umphristi wasukuma wathi kubo, “Kalithembekanga; lisuke lathatha abafazi bezizweni, lengeza icala lika-Israyeli.
11 Hanki menina Ra Anumzana tamagehe'i Anumzamofonte kumitamia huama nehutma, Agri avesi'za amage anteho. Amama emani'naza mopafi vahe tvaontera omanitma afete nemanitma, megi'a a'nanema eri'nazana zamatreho.
Manje-ke vumani izono zenu kuThixo, uNkulunkulu wabokhokho benu, lenze intando yakhe. Zahlukaniseni kulababantu elakhelene labo lasebafazini benu abezizwe.”
12 Anante ana maka vahe'mo'za ranke hu'za, Kagra tamage hanankita kagrama hana nanekea amage antegahune.
Inkundla yonke yaphendula ngelizwi elikhulu yathi: “Uqondile! Kumele senze njengoba usitsho.
13 Hianagi tusi'a koneriankita ama vahe krerfamota magoke knafino tare knafina otita manineta ama ana kea eri fatgo hugara osu'none. Na'ankure rama'a vahe'mota megi'a a'nanea erita tusi'a kumi hu'none.
Kodwa kulabantu abanengi lapha futhi lesi yisikhathi sezulu; ngakho ngeke sime lapha phandle. Futhi indaba le ingazake iphethwe ngosuku olulodwa kumbe ezimbili, ngoba sonile kakhulu ngento le.
14 E'ina hu'negu kva vahetimo'za Jerusalemi mani'neza ama ana knazana taza hu'za erigahaze. Hanki kumatifima iza'o megi'a a'nanema eri'nesia vahe'ma mani'nesimo'a, huhampri'ma ante'nesaza knarera, kuma'afinti kva vahe'ene keagama refko'ma nehaza vahe'ene zamavare'neno ana zupa eno ana knazana emeri fatgo hugahie. E'inama hanunkeno'a Anumzamo'a arimpa aheorantegahie.
Akuthi izinduna zethu zisimele thina sonke. Akuthi wonkemuntu emizini yethu othethe umfazi wabezizwe eze ngesikhathi esimisiweyo, eze labadala kanye labehluleli balowomuzi, luze ludede kithi ulaka olwesabekayo lukaNkulunkulu wethu.”
15 Anage'ma hazage'za maka ana kerera mago zamarimpa hu'naze. Hianagi Asaheli nemofo Jonatani'ene Tikva nemofo Jazeiakea ana nanekerera mago zanarimpa osu'na'e. Ana nehake'za Livae nagapinti netre Mesulamu'ene Sabetaikea zanagritega eme anteke zanaza hu'na'e.
Kwaba nguJonathani kuphela, indodana ka-Asaheli loJahizeya indodana kaThikhiva, besekelwa nguMeshulami loShabhethayi umLevi abakuphikisayo lokhu.
16 Hanki kva vahe'ma huhamprisage'za mani'neza ana knazana erigahaze hu'zama haza kerera, Babiloni kinafinti'ma ana maka e'naza vahe'mo'za mago zamarimpa hu'naze. Anante pristi ne' Ezra'a, Israeli naga nofite'ma ugagota hutere hanaza vahera huhampri nezmanteno, avontafepi zamagi'a krente'ne. Hagi 10ni ikamofona ese knazupa agafa hu'za megi'a a'nanema eri'naza vahera ke hazage'za e'za ana knazana eri fatgo hu'naze.
Ngakho izithunjwa zenza njengokwakumisiwe. U-Ezra umphristi wakhetha amadoda ayeyizinhloko zezimuli, oyedwa emulini, bonke baqanjwa ngamabizo. Ngosuku lokuqala lwenyanga yetshumi bahlala phansi bawahlolisisa lawomacala,
17 Hanki megi'a a'nanema eri'naza ve'nenemokizmi knazana 3'a ikampi eri'za vu'za, ese ikamofona ese zupa ome vagare'naze.
kwathi ngelanga lokuqala ngenyanga yokuqala baqeda ukuphatha indaba yamadoda ayethethe abafazi bezizweni.
18 Hanki pristi nagapinti'ma megi'a a'nanema eri'naza ve'nenemokizmi zamagi'a amanahu hu'ne, Jozadaki nemofo Jesuane afu'agna he'zama mani'naza nagapintira, Maseianki Elieserinki Jaribinki Gedalianki hu'za hake'za zamazeri fore hu'naze.
