< 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, when Ezra had prayed and when he had made confession, weeping and casting himself down, before the house of God, there gathered unto him out of Israel, an exceeding large convocation—men and women and children, for the people wept with a very bitter weeping.
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 ।
Then responded Shecaniah son of Jehiel of the sons of Elam, and said unto Ezra, We, have been faithful with our God, and have married foreign women from among the peoples of the land, —yet, now, there is hope for Israel concerning this thing.
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 ।
Now, therefore, let us solemnize a covenant unto our God—to put away all the women and such as have been born of them, in the counsel of my lord, and them who tremble at the commandment of our God, —and, according to the law, let it be done.
4 उठ्नुहोस्, किनकि यो काम तपाईंले गर्नुपर्ने हुन्छ र हामी तपाईंसित छौं । बलियो हुनुहोस् र यो काम गर्नुहोस् ।”
Arise, for, upon thee, resteth the thing, but, we, are with thee, —be strong, and act.
5 त्यसैले एज्रा उठे, र पुजारीका अधिकारीहरू, लेवीहरू र सारा इस्राएलीहरूलाई यसरी नै प्रतिज्ञा गर्न लगाए । तिनीहरू सबैले गम्भीर शपथ खाए ।
Then arose Ezra and made the rulers of the priests, the Levites, and all Israel, swear to do according to this word—and they sware.
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 arose Ezra from before the house of God, and went into the chamber of Jehohanan son of Eliashib, —and, when he came thither, bread, did he not eat, and, water, did he not drink, for he was mourning over the unfaithfulness of them of the Exile.
7 तिनीहरूले निर्वासनबाट फर्केर यहूदा र यरूशलेममा आएर बसेका सबै मानिसलाई यरूशलेममा भेला हुन समाचार पठाए ।
Then made they a proclamation throughout Judah and Jerusalem, unto all the Sons of the Exile, to gather themselves together unto 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, whosoever should not come within three days, according to the counsel of the rulers and the elders, all his goods should be devoted, —and, himself, be separated from the convocation of them of the Exile.
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 were gathered together all the men of Judah and Benjamin unto Jerusalem, within three days, the same, was the ninth month, on the twentieth of the month, —and all the people remained in the broadway of the house of God, trembling concerning the thing, and because of the heavy rains.
10 पुजारी एज्रा खडा भए र भने, “तिमीहरू आफैले अपराध गरेका छौ । इस्राएलको पापलाई बढाउलाई तिमीहरू विदेशी स्‍त्रीहरूसित बस्यौ ।
Then arose Ezra the priest, and said unto them, Ye, have acted unfaithfully, and have married foreign women, —to add unto the guilt of Israel.
11 तर अब आफ्‍ना पुर्खाहरूका परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरलाई प्रशंसा देओ, र उहाँको इच्छाअनुसार गर । यस देशका मानिसहरू र विदेशी स्‍त्रीहरूबाट अलग रहो ।”
Now, therefore, make confession unto Yahweh God of your fathers, and do his pleasure, —and separate yourselves from the peoples of the land, and from the foreign women.
12 सारा समुदायले ठुलो सोरमा जवाफ दिए, “तपाईंले भन्‍नुभएझैं हामी गर्नेछौं ।
Then responded all the convocation and said, with a loud voice, —Thus, according to thy word concerning us, must it be done.
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 ।
Nevertheless, the people, are many, and, the season, is that of the heavy rains, and we are not able to stand outside, —and, the business, is not one for a single day, nor yet for two, for we have abundantly transgressed, in this thing.
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 ।”
Let, we beseech thee, our rulers take up their station for all the convocation, and, all who, throughout our cities, have married foreign women, let them come in at times appointed, and, with them, the elders of every city, and the judges thereof, until the glow of the anger of our God be turned from us, concerning this matter.
15 असाहेलका छोरा जोनाथन र तिक्भाका छोरा याजयाहले यसको विरोध गरे, र मशुल्लाम र लेवी सब्बतैले तिनीहरूलाई समर्थन गरे ।
Only Jonathan son of Asahel and Jahzeiah son of Tikvah, made a stand against this, —and, Meshullam and Shabbethai the Levite, helped 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 ।
But the Sons of the Exile, did thus, and Ezra the priest separated to himself certain men—ancestral heads by their ancestral houses, and all of them by name, —and they took their seats on the first day of the tenth month to search into the matter;
17 पहिलो महिनाको पहिलो दिनसम्ममा तिनीहरूले कुन-कुन मानिसहरू विदेशी स्‍त्रीहरूसित बसेका थिए भनी पत्ता लगाए ।
and they made an end with all the men who had married foreign 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 ।
Now there were found, of the sons of the priests, who had married foreign women, —of the sons of Jeshua son of Jozadak, and his brethren, 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 hand, that they would put away their wives, —and, being guilty, [they offered] a ram of the flock for their guilt.
