एज्रा 10
1 एज्राले प्रार्थना गर्दा र पाप स्वीकार गर्द तिनी रोए र परमेश्वरको मन्दिरको सामु घोप्टो परे । इस्राएली पुरुष, स्त्री र बालबलिकाको एउटा ठुलो भेला तिनीकहाँ जम्मा भए किनकि मानिसहरू धुरुधुरु रुँदै थिए ।
Now while Ezra was making his prayer and his statement of wrongdoing, weeping and falling down before the house of God, a very great number of men and women and children out of Israel came together round him: for the people were weeping bitterly.
2 एलामका परिवारका यहीएलका छोरा शकन्याहले एज्रालाई भने, “हामी हाम्रा परमेश्वरप्रति अविश्वासी भएका छौं, र हामीले अन्य देशका विदेशी स्त्रीहरूसित विवाह गरेका छौं । तर यसको बाबजुत पनि इस्राएलको लागि अझै आशा छ ।
And Shecaniah, the son of Jehiel, one of the sons of Elam, answering, said to Ezra, We have done evil against our God, and have taken as our wives strange women of the peoples of the land: but still there is hope for Israel in this question.
3 त्यसैले अब प्रभुका निर्देशनहरू र हाम्रा परमेश्वरका आज्ञाहरूदेखि डराउनेहरूका निर्देशनहरूअनुसार सबै स्त्री र तिनीहरूका छोराछोरीलाई पठाउन हाम्रा परमेश्वरसित करार बाँधौं, र यो काम व्यवस्थाअनुसार गरियोस् ।
Let us now make an agreement with our God to put away all the wives and all their children, if it seems right to my lord and to those who go in fear of the words of our God; and let it be done in keeping with the law.
4 उठ्नुहोस्, किनकि यो काम तपाईंले गर्नुपर्ने हुन्छ र हामी तपाईंसित छौं । बलियो हुनुहोस् र यो काम गर्नुहोस् ।”
Up, now! for this is your business, and we are with you; take heart and do it.
5 त्यसैले एज्रा उठे, र पुजारीका अधिकारीहरू, लेवीहरू र सारा इस्राएलीहरूलाई यसरी नै प्रतिज्ञा गर्न लगाए । तिनीहरू सबैले गम्भीर शपथ खाए ।
Then Ezra got up, and made the chiefs of the priests and the Levites and all Israel take an oath that they would do this. So they took an oath.
6 तब एज्रा परमप्रभुको मन्दिरको सामुबाट उठेर एल्यासीबका छोरा येहोहानानको कोठामा गए । तिनले कुनै रोटी खाएनन्, न त पानी पिए किनकि तिनी निर्वासनबाट फर्केकाहरूको विश्वासत्यागको लागि शोक गर्दै थिए ।
Then Ezra got up from before the house of God and went into the room of Jehohanan, the son of Eliashib; but when he came there, he took no food or drink, for he was sorrowing for the sin of those who had come back.
7 तिनीहरूले निर्वासनबाट फर्केर यहूदा र यरूशलेममा आएर बसेका सबै मानिसलाई यरूशलेममा भेला हुन समाचार पठाए ।
And they made a public statement through all Judah and Jerusalem, to all those who had come back, that they were to come together to Jerusalem;
8 अधिकारीहरू र धर्म-गुरुहरूका निर्देशनमुताबिक तिन दिनमा नआउने कुनै पनि व्यक्तिको सारा सम्पत्ति जफत गरिने र निर्वासनबाट फर्केर आएका मानिसहरूको ठुलो सभाबाट बहिष्कार गरिने भयो ।
And that if anyone did not come before three days were past, as ordered by the rulers and the responsible men, all his goods would be put under the curse, and he himself would be cut off from the meeting of the people who had come back.
9 त्यसैले यहूदा र बेन्यामीनका सारा मानिस तिन दिनमा यरूशलेममा भेला भए । यो नवौं महिनामा र उक्त महिनाको बाह्रौं दिनमा भएको थियो । सारा मानिस परमेश्वरको मन्दिरको सामुन्ने चोकमा खडा भए, र वचन र वृष्टिको कारणले थरथर काँपे ।
Then all the men of Judah and Benjamin came together to Jerusalem before three days were past; it was the ninth month, on the twentieth day of the month; and all the people were seated in the wide square in front of the house of God, shaking with fear because of this business and because of the great rain.
10 पुजारी एज्रा खडा भए र भने, “तिमीहरू आफैले अपराध गरेका छौ । इस्राएलको पापलाई बढाउलाई तिमीहरू विदेशी स्त्रीहरूसित बस्यौ ।
And Ezra the priest got to his feet and said to them, You have done wrong and taken strange women for your wives, so increasing the sin of Israel.
11 तर अब आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूका परमप्रभु परमेश्वरलाई प्रशंसा देओ, र उहाँको इच्छाअनुसार गर । यस देशका मानिसहरू र विदेशी स्त्रीहरूबाट अलग रहो ।”
So now, give praise to the Lord, the God of your fathers, and do his pleasure; and make yourselves separate from the peoples of the land and from the strange women.
12 सारा समुदायले ठुलो सोरमा जवाफ दिए, “तपाईंले भन्नुभएझैं हामी गर्नेछौं ।
Then all the people, answering, said with a loud voice, As you have said, so it is right for us to do.
13 यद्यपि, मानिसहरू धेरै छन्, र यो पानी पर्ने समय हो । बाहिर खडा हुन हामीसित ताकत छैन, र यो केवल एक वा दुई दिनको काम होइन, किनकि हामीले यस विषयमा घोर अपराध गरेका छौं ।
But the number of people is great, and it is a time of much rain; it is not possible for us to go on waiting outside, and this is not a thing which may be done in one day or even two: for our sin in this business is great.
14 त्यसैले हाम्रा अधिकारीहरूले सारा समुदायको प्रतिनिधित्व गरून् । हामीबाट हाम्रा परमेश्वरको क्रोध नहटेसम्म हाम्रा सहरहरूमा विदेशी स्त्रीहरूलाई बस्न दिएकाहरू सहरका सबै धर्म-गुरु र सहरका न्यायकर्ताहरूद्वारा तोकिएको समयमा आऊन् ।”
So now let our rulers be representatives for all the people, and let all those in our towns who are married to strange women come at fixed times, and with them the responsible men and the judges of every town, till the burning wrath of our God is turned away from us, and this has been done.
15 असाहेलका छोरा जोनाथन र तिक्भाका छोरा याजयाहले यसको विरोध गरे, र मशुल्लाम र लेवी सब्बतैले तिनीहरूलाई समर्थन गरे ।
Only Jonathan, the son of Asahel, and Jahzeiah, the son of Tikvah, were against this, Meshullam and Shabbethai the Levite supporting them.
16 यसैले निर्वासनबाट फर्केर आएकाहरूले सुझावअनुसार गरे । पुजारी एज्राले नाउँ दर्ता भएअनुसार आ-आफ्नो परिवारका अगुवाहरूको छनोट गरे, र तिनीहरूले दसौं महिनाको पहिलो दिनसम्म यस विषयमा जाँच गरे ।
So those who had come back did so. And Ezra the priest, with certain heads of families, by their fathers' families, all of them by their names, were marked out; and on the first day of the tenth month they took their places to go into the question with care.
17 पहिलो महिनाको पहिलो दिनसम्ममा तिनीहरूले कुन-कुन मानिसहरू विदेशी स्त्रीहरूसित बसेका थिए भनी पत्ता लगाए ।
And they got to the end of all the men who were married to strange women by the first day of the first month.
18 विदेशी स्त्रीहरूलाई विवाह गर्ने पुजारी परिवारहरूका यिनै हुन्: योसादाकका छोरा येशूअ र तिनका दाजुभाइका: मासेयाह, एलीएजर, यारीब र गदल्याह थिए ।
And among the sons of the priests who were married to strange women were these: of the sons of Jeshua, the son of Jozadak and his brothers, Maaseiah and Eliezer and Jarib and Gedaliah.
19 त्यसैले तिनीहरूले आ-आफ्ना पत्नीहरूलाई त्यागिदिने निधो गरे । तिनीहरू दोषी भएका हुनाले तिनीहरूले दोषबलिको रूपमा आफ्ना बगालबाट एउटा भेडा पनि ल्याए ।
And they gave their word that they would put away their wives; and for their sin, they gave an offering of a male sheep of the flock.

44 यी सबैले विदेशी स्त्रीहरूलाई विवाह गरेका थिए, र तिनीहरूमध्ये कसैले छोराछोरीसमेत जन्माएका थिए ।
All these had taken strange wives; and some of them had wives by whom they had offspring.
