Ezra 10

1 Ke pacl se Ezra el suwoli ac pre ye mutun Tempul, ac tung ac fahkak ma koluk inge nukewa, sie u lulap lun mwet Israel, (mukul, mutan, ac tulik) elos fahsreni raunella ke tung mwemelil.

And at Ezra's praying, and at his making confession, weeping and casting himself down before the house of God, there have been gathered unto him out of Israel an assembly very great — men and women and children — for the people have wept, multiplying weeping.

2 Na Shecaniah wen natul Jehiel, sin fwil natul Elam, el fahk nu sel Ezra, “Kut sifacna kunausla inmasrlosr ac God ke kut payuk nu sin mutan sac. Tusruktu finne ouinge, srakna oasr finsrak lun Israel.

And Shechaniah son of Jehiel, of the sons of Elam, answereth and saith to Ezra, 'We — we have trespassed against our God, and we settle strange women of the peoples of the land; and now there is hope for Israel concerning this,

3 Inge kut enenu in orala sie wulela ku nu sin God lasr lah kut ac supwalik mutan inge ac tulik natulos in som liki kut. Kut fah oru ma kom, ac elos ngia su sunakin ma sap lun God, fahk nu sesr in oru. Kut ac oru oana ma sapkinyuk nu sesr in Ma Sap lun God.

and now, let us make a covenant with our God, to cause all the women to go out, and that which is born of them, by the counsel of the Lord, and of those trembling at the command of our God, and according to law it is done;

4 Ma kunom in oru ouinge. Kut ac wi kom na, ke ma inge tuyak ac oru ma kom ac oru an.”

rise, for on thee [is] the matter, and we [are] with thee; be strong, and do.'

5 Ouinge Ezra el tuyak ac sapkin tuh mwet kol inmasrlon mwet tol ac mwet Levi, ac mwet Israel nukewa saya, in fulahk tuh elos fah oru oana kas lal Shecaniah.

And Ezra riseth, and causeth the heads of the priests, the Levites, and all Israel, to swear to do according to this word — and they swear.

6 Na el som liki mutun Tempul ac utyak nu ke infukil lal Jehohanan wen natul Eliashib, ac muta we fong fon se, ac tungi orekma koluk lun mwet sruoh. El tia mongo ku nim kutena ma.

And Ezra riseth from before the house of God, and goeth unto the chamber of Jehohanan son of Eliashib; yea, he goeth there, bread he hath not eaten, and water he hath not drunk, for he is mourning because of the trespass of the removal.

7 Sie kas supweyukelik nu yen nukewa in acn Jerusalem ac Judah, tuh elos nukewa su foloko liki sruoh fah osun in Jerusalem,

And they cause a voice to pass over into Judah and Jerusalem, to all sons of the removal, to be gathered to Jerusalem,

8 fal nu ke sap ku lun mwet kol lun mwet uh. Fin oasr kutena su tia tuku ke lusen len tolu, ma lalos nukewa fah itukla lukelos, ac elos fah tia sifil sie sin mwet in u se inge.

and every one who cometh not in by the third day, according to the counsel of the heads and of the elders, all his substance is devoted, and himself separated from the assembly of the removal.

9 Inmasrlon len tolu ah, ke len aklongoul in malem akeu, mukul nukewa su muta in acn lun Judah ac Benjamin elos tuku nu Jerusalem ac toeni in acn mwesas lun Tempul. Len sac af na upa, ac mwet nukewa rarrar ke sripen oyohu len an, oayapa ke sripa na yohk se lun tukeni sac.

And gathered are all the men of Judah and Benjamin to Jerusalem by the third day, it [is] the ninth month, on the twentieth of the month, and all the people sit in the broad place of the house of God, trembling on account of the matter and of the showers.

10 Ezra mwet tol el tuyak ac kaskas nu selos. El fahk, “Kowos mwet tia pwaye in lulalfongi la, ac ke kowos payuk nu sin mutan sac kowos sang mwata nu sin Israel.

And Ezra the priest riseth, and saith unto them, 'Ye — ye have trespassed, and ye settle strange women, to add to the guilt of Israel;

11 Inge, fahkak ma koluk lowos nu sin LEUM GOD lun mwet matu lowos, ac oru ma El insewowo kac. Srikowosla liki mwetsac su muta in acn sesr, ac sisla mutan sac kiowos.”

and, now, make confession to Jehovah, God of your fathers, and do His good pleasure, and be separated from the peoples of the land, and from the strange women.'

12 Mwet uh wowoyak ac topuk, “Kut ac oru ma nukewa ma kom fahk an.”

And all the assembly answer and say [with] a great voice, 'Right; according to thy word — on us to do;

13 Tusruktu elos tafwela ke kas inge, “Pusla mwet ke u se inge, ac af uh upa. Kut tia ku in tu ouinge likinum uh. Ma se inge tia ma ac ku in orekla ke len se ku luo, mweyen puslana sesr oasr ke ma koluk se inge.

but the people [are] many, and [it is] the time of showers, and there is no power to stand without, and the work [is] not for one day, nor for two, for we have multiplied to transgress in this thing.

14 Lela mwet kol lasr inge in muta Jerusalem ac orekma ke elya se inge. Na lela kutena mwet su oasr mutan sac se kia in tuku ke pacl se oakwuk nu sel, wi mwet kol ac mwet nununku lun siti sel. Fin ouinge, na mulat lun God ke ouiya se inge ac fah forla liki kut.”

'Let, we pray thee, our heads of all the assembly stand, and all who [are] in our cities, who have settled strange wives, do come in at the times appointed, and with them the elders of city and city, and its judges, till the turning back of the fury of the wrath of our God from us, for this thing.'

15 Wangin sie lain lemlem sac, sayal Jonathan wen natul Asahel, ac Jahzeiah wen natul Tikvah, su eis kasreyuk sel Meshullam ac Shabbethai, sie mwet Levi.

Only Jonathan son of Asahel, and Jahaziah son of Tikvah, stood against this, and Meshullam, and Shabbethai the Levite, helped them.

16 Mwet nukewa su foloko liki sruoh elos insese nu ke lemlem sac. Ouinge Ezra mwet tol el srisrngiya mwet inmasrlon sifen sou uh, ac simusla inelos kais sie. Ke len se meet in malem se aksingoul, elos mutawauk in mukuikui ke sukok lalos,

And the sons of the removal do so, and Ezra the priest, [and] men, heads of the fathers, for the house of their fathers, are separated, even all of them by name, and they sit on the first day of the tenth month, to examine the matter;

17 na inmasrlon malem tolu, elos konauk mukul nukewa su oasr mutan sac kia.

and they finish with all the men who have settled strange women unto the first day of the first month.

18 Pa inge inen mukul su oasr mutan sac kia: [Mwet tol], simla ke sou: Ke sou lulap lal Joshua ac tamulel wial, wen natul Jehozadak: Maaseiah, Eliezer, Jarib, ac Gedaliah.

And there are found of the sons of the priests that have settled strange women: of the sons of Jeshua son of Jozadak, and his brethren, Maaseiah, and Eliezer, and Jarib, and Gedaliah;

19 Elos wulela in sisla mutan kialos, ac elos sang sheep mukul soko in mwe kisa ke ma koluk lalos.
