Ezra 10

1 Ary raha mbola nivavaka sy nitsotra Ezra sady nitomany sy niankohoka teo anoloan’ ny tranon’ Andriamanitra, dia nivory teo aminy ny olona maro be avy tamin’ ny Isiraely, na lehilahy, na vehivavy mbamin’ ny ankizy madinika; fa nitomany mafy dia mafy koa ny olona.

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

2 Dia namaly Sekania, zanak’ i Jehiela, isan’ ny taranak’ i Elama, ka nanao tamin’ i Ezra hoe: Izahay efa nanao izay mahadiso amin’ Andriamanitsika, fa efa naka vehivavy hafa firenena avy tamin’ ny tompon-tany ho vadinay; nefa mbola misy fanantenana ihany ho an’ ny Isiraely ny amin’ izany zavatra izany.

And Shechaniah son of Jehiel, of the sons of Elam, answers and says to Ezra, “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 Koa aoka izahay hanao fanekena amin’ Andriamanitsika hisaotra ny vady rehetra sy hanary izay naterany araka ny anatra nataonao, tompokolahy, sy izay mangovitra noho ny didin’ Andriamanitsika; ary aoka hatao araka ny lalàna izany.

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 Mitsangàna, fa adidinao izany; ary indreto koa izahay eto aminao; dia matokia tsara, ka ataovy izany.

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

5 Dia nitsangana Ezra ka nampianiana ny lohan’ ny mpisorona sy ny Levita ary ny Isiraely rehetra hanao araka izany teny izany; dia nianiana ireo.

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

6 Dia nitsangana niala teo anoloan’ ny tranon’ Andriamanitra Ezra ka nankany amin’ ny efi-trano nitoeran’ i Johanana, zanak’ i Eliasiba; ary nony tafiditra tao izy, dia tsy mba nihinan-kanina na nisotro rano, fa nalahelo izy noho ny fahadisoan’ ny olona izay efa niverina avy tamin’ ny fahababoana.

And Ezra rises from before the house of God, and goes to the chamber of Jehohanan son of Eliashib; indeed, he goes there, bread he has not eaten, and water he has not drunk, for he is mourning because of the trespass of the expulsion.

7 Dia nandefa teny eran’ i Joda sy Jerosalema ireo ho any amin’ ny olona rehetra izay efa niverina avy tamin’ ny fahababoana mba hivory any Jerosalema;

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

8 ary na iza na iza no tsy tonga amin’ ny hateloana araka ny tenin’ ny mpanapaka sy ny loholona, dia horobaina ny fananany rehetra, ary hesorina amin’ ny fiangonan’ ny olona izay efa niverina avy tamin’ ny fahababoana izy.

and everyone who does not come in by the third day, according to the counsel of the heads and the elderly, all his substance is devoted, and himself separated from the assembly of the expulsion.

9 Ary nony tamin’ ny andro fahatelo dia vory tany Jerosalema ny lehilahy rehetra tamin’ ny Joda sy ny Benjamina, dia tamin’ ny andro faharoa-polo tamin’ ny volana fahasivy; ary nipetraka teo an-kalalahana akaikin’ ny tranon’ Andriamanitra ny olona rehetra ka nangovitra noho izany zavatra izany sy noho ny ranonorana be.

And all the men of Judah and Benjamin are gathered 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 Dia nitsangana Ezra mpisorona ka nanao taminy hoe: Hianareo efa nanao izay mahadiso, satria naka vehivavy hafa firenena ho vadinareo ka nampitombo ny fahadisoan’ ny Isiraely.

And Ezra the priest rises and says to them, “You have trespassed, and you settle strange women, to add to the guilt of Israel;

11 Koa mitsora amin’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny razanareo, ka ataovy ny sitrapony; ary misaraha amin’ ny olona tompon-tany sy ny vehivavy hafa firenena.

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

12 Dia namaly ny fiangonana rehetra ka niredona mafy hoe: Izay lazainao dia tsy maintsy hataonay;

And all the assembly answers and says [with] a great voice, “Right; according to your word—on us to do;

13 nefa maro ny olona, ary fahavaratra ny andro, ka tsy mahatoetra etỳ ala-trano izahay, sady raharaha tsy vita indray andro na indroa andro aza izao, fa maro izahay no efa nanota tamin’ izany zavatra izany;

but the people [are] many, and [it is] the time of showers, and there is no power to stand outside, and the work [is] not for one day, nor for two, for we have multiplied to transgress in this thing.

14 koa aoka ny mpanapaka anay no hitoetra eto ho solon’ ny fiangonana rehetra, ary ny olona rehetra any amin’ ny tanànantsika avy izay efa naka vehivavy hafa firenena ho vadiny no aoka hankatỳ amin’ izay fotoan’ andro hatao, ary hiaraka aminy koa ny loholony isan-tanàna sy ny mpitsara ao, mandra-pahavitan’ izany raharaha izany sy ny hialan’ ny firehetan’ ny fahatezeran’ Andriamanitsika amintsika.

Please let our heads of all the assembly stand; and all who [are] in our cities, who have settled strange wives, come in at [the] appointed times, and with them [the] elderly of city and city, and judges in it, until the turning back of the fury of the wrath of our God from us, for this thing.”

15 Jonatana, zanak’ i Asahela, sy Jahaza, zanak’ i Tikva, ihany no nanohitra izany; ary Mesolama sy Sabetahy Levita niandany taminy koa.

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

16 Fa ny olona izay efa niverina avy tamin’ ny fahababoana kosa dia nanaraka izany; ary voatokana Ezra mpisorona sy ny sasany amin’ ny lohan’ ny fianakaviana, araka ny fianakaviany avy, sady samy efa notononina anarana, dia nipetraka handinika Izany raharaha izany tamin’ ny andro voalohany tamin’ ny volana fahafolo.

And the sons of the expulsion 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 Ary nony tonga ny andro voalohany tamin’ ny volana voalohany dia vitany ny raharaha ny amin’ ny lehilahy rehetra Izay efa naka vehivavy hafa firenena ho vadiny.

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

18 Ary ny hita teo amin’ ny taranaky ny mpisorona izay efa naka vehivavy hafa firenena ho vadiny dia izao: Ny teo amin’ ny taranak’ i Jesoa, zanak’ i Jozadaka, sy ny rahalahiny dia Mahaseia sy Eliezera sy Jariba ary Gedalia;

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 brothers, Maaseiah, and Eliezer, and Jarib, and Gedaliah;
