Ezra 9
1 Hanki anama hutonke'za henka mago'a kva vahe'mo'za nagrite e'za amanage hu'naze, Israeli vahe'mo'zane pristi vahe'mo'zane Livae naga'mo'zanena, ko'ma ama mopafima mani'naza vahe'mo'zama hu'naza kasrino haviza hu'nea havi zamavu zamavara zamavariri'za nehaze. Ana havi zamavu zamava'ma nehaza vahera Kenani vahe'ma, Hiti vahe'ma, Perizi vahe'ma, Jebusi vahe'ma, Amoni vahe'ma, Moapu vahe'ma, Isipi vahe'ma, Amori vaheki hu'za mani'naze.
Now after these things were done, the captains came to me and said, The people of Israel and the priests and Levites have not kept themselves separate from the people of the lands, but have taken part in the disgusting ways of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Jebusites, the Ammonites, the Moabites, the Egyptians, and the Amorites.
2 Na'ankure mago'a Israeli vahe'mo'za ana megi'a vahepintira a'nanea enerige'za, mofavre zamimo'za anazanke hu'za ara eri'naze. Ana nehu'za Ra Anumzamo'ma nagri vahe fatgo mani'nazema hu'neankea eri havia hu'naze. Ana kumira ugota kva vahe'mo'zane, eri'za vahe'mo'za ugota hu'za nehazage'za, vea kevumo'za zamage ante'za ana kumira hu'naze.
For they have taken their daughters for themselves and for their sons, so that the holy seed has been mixed with the peoples of the lands; and in fact the captains and rulers have been the first to do this evil.
3 Hanki nagra Ezra'na anankema nentahi'na kukenanine, amega nakre ku'ninena tagato nehu'na, naseni nazoka'ene nagi nazoka'enena vararete'na, antahintahinimo'a haviza hige'na, akohe'na mani'noe.
And hearing this, with signs of grief and pulling out the hair of my head and my chin, I took my seat on the earth deeply troubled.
4 Anante mago'a vahe'ma, Israeli vahe Ra Anumzamofo nanekegu'ma koroma hunentaza vahe'mo'za eme nagagi'naze. Zamagra Ra Anumzamo'ma kumi'ma nehaza vahe'ma zamazeri havizama nehia zankura koro nehu'za, Babilonima kinafinti'ma e'naza vahe'mo'zama nehaza havi zamavu zamava nege'za, e'za nagrama akohe'nama mani'nore eme atru hu'za mani'nageno kinaga ofama hukna ehanati'ne.
Then everyone who went in fear of the words of the God of Israel, because of the sin of those who had come back, came together to me; and I kept where I was, overcome with grief, till the evening offering.
5 Hanki kinaga ofama hu knama ege'na, kukenanine nakre ku'ninema tagato'ma hute'na mani'noretira oti'na nare'na nere'na, Anumzana Ranimofontega nzantre'na erisga nehu'na,
And at the evening offering, having made myself low before God, I got up, and with signs of grief, falling down on my knees, with my hands stretched out to the Lord my God,
6 amanage hu'na nunamuna hu'noe, Ra Anumzanimoka nagrama kagri kavure'ma e'zankura tusi nagaze hie. Na'ankure tagra tusi kumi hunkeno, kumitimo'a tagatereno monafi mareri'ne.
I said, O my God, shame keeps me from lifting up my face to you, my God: for our sins are increased higher than our heads and our evil-doing has come up to heaven.
7 Korapa tagehonteti eno meni tagritema egeta tusi'a kumi hu'none. E'ina hu'negu Kagra ha' vahetia zamatranke'za e'za tagri'ene kini vahetine pristi vahetinena ha' eme hurante'za tagatere'naze. Ana nehu'za mago'a vahera eme zamahe nefri'za mago'a vahera eme tavre'za kina ome hurante'naze. Ana nehu'za feno zantia eneri'za tatarazageta tagazegu nehuta mani'none.
From the days of our fathers till this day we have been great sinners; and for our sins, we and our kings and our priests have been given up into the hands of the kings of the lands, to the sword and to prison and to loss of goods and to shame of face, as it is this day.
8 Hianagi Ra Anumzamoka menina ete kasunku hurantenka, osi'a naga tatranketa kinafintira atreta knare kumaka'afi Jerusalemia e'none. Ana nehunka Kagra hankave ka'areti kinafintira taza hanketa, kora kazokazo eri'za vahe mani'nonanagi, menina fru huta knare huta mani'none.
And now for a little time grace has come to us from the Lord our God, to let a small band of us get free and to give us a nail in his holy place, so that our God may give light to our eyes and a measure of new life in our prison chains.
9 Tagra kazokzo eri'za vahe mani'nonanagi Rana tagri Anumzamoka kamefira huorami'nane. Kagra kavesi nerantenka, kasefa asimu tamiaza hunka, Pesia kini vahera hanke'za tazeri so'e nehu'za, tatarazageta mono noma ko'ma havizama hu'neana ete eme kiteta, Jerusalene Juda mopafina menina so'e hunka kva hurantanketa mani'none.
For we are servants; but our God has not been turned away from us in our prison, but has had mercy on us before the eyes of the kings of Persia, to give us new strength to put up again the house of our God and to make fair its waste places, and to give us a wall in Judah and Jerusalem.
10 Hianagi menina tagri Ra Anumzamoka mikazama tro'ma hurantenantera na'ane huta kasamigahune? Kagra ana maka knare zantami tro hurante'nane. Hianagi Kagri kasegea tamefi humita amagera onte'none.
And now, O our God, what are we to say after this? for we have not kept your laws,
11 Hagi eri'za vaheka'a kasnampa vahe'mokizmi zamagipi huvazinka ana nanekea amanage hu'nane, Amama unefreta erisantima hare'naza mopamo'a nagri navurera agru osu'ne. Na'ankure ana mopafima mani'naza vahe'mo'za havi zamavu zamava hu'za ana maka mopa eri himna vu'naza mopafi unefraze.
Which you gave to your servants the prophets, saying, The land into which you are going, to take it for a heritage, is an unclean land, because of the evil lives of the peoples of the land and their disgusting ways, which have made the land unclean from end to end.
12 E'ina hu'negu mofa'nanetamia zamatrenke'za ana vahetera nomanisageta, ana vahepintira ne' mofavretamirera ara avre ozamiho. Ana vahe'enena mago tamarimpa hutma nomanita, mago'a zama tro'ma hunaku'ma hnageta zamaza osiho. Hagi ama ana nanekema amagema antenuta ana mopafina knare hutma mani'neta, hankavenentake vahe manigahaze. Ana hu'nesage'za henka ana mopa tamagehe'za erisanti hare'za mani vava hu'za vugahaze.
So now do not give your daughters to their sons or take their daughters for your sons or do anything for their peace or well-being for ever; so that you may be strong, living on the good of the land, and handing it on to your children for a heritage for ever.
13 Hagi kagri kea amagera onteta tusi'a kumi huta hazenke hunonanagi, Ra Anumzamoka kagra ana kumitimofo nona'a tusi'a knaza tamisinagi, osi knaza neraminka, tatranketa menina ofri osia nagara mani'none.
And after everything which has come on us because of our evil-doing and our great sin, and seeing that the punishment which you, O God, have given us, is less than the measure of our sins, and that you have kept from death those of us who are here;
14 Tagra na'ane huta Ra Anumzamoka kasegea ete rutagreta megi'a vahe'ma haviza huno agoterfa avu'avazama nehaza vahetera mofavre nagatia zamatre'sanunke'za vea erige, ara erige hugahaze? Tagra antahi'none anama hanunkenka'a, Kagra karimpa ahenerantenka ana maka tahe fanane hananketa magore huta omanigahune.
Are we again to go against your orders, taking wives from among the people who do these disgusting things? would you not be angry with us till our destruction was complete, till there was not one who got away safe?
15 Ra Anumzana Israeli vahe Anumzamoka, kagrake fatgo kavukvazana nehane. E'ina hu'negu ko'ma tazeri havizama nehunka menina osi'a nagara tatranketa mani'none. Tagra kumike vahe mani'nonankita, Kagri tava'ontera manigara osu'none.
O Lord God of Israel, righteousness is yours; we are only a small band which has been kept from death, as at this day: see, we are before you in our sin; for no one may keep his place before you because of this.
