Ezra 10

1 A kad se moljaše Jezdra i ispovijedaše grijehe plaèuæi i ležeæi pred domom Božjim, skupi se k njemu iz Izrailja veliko mnoštvo ljudi i žena i djece; i narod plakaše veoma.

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 Tada progovori Sehanija sin Jehilov od sinova Elamovijeh i reèe Jezdri: mi smo sagriješili Bogu svojemu što uzesmo žene tuðinke iz naroda zemaljskih; ali još ima nadanja Izrailju za to.

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 Da uèinimo sada zavjet Bogu svojemu, da otpustimo sve žene i porod njihov po volji Gospodnjoj i onijeh koji se boje zapovijesti Boga našega, i po zakonu neka bude.

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 Ustani, jer je ovo tvoj posao; a mi æemo biti uza te, budi slobodan i radi.

Arise, for, upon thee, resteth the thing, but, we, are with thee, —be strong, and act.

5 Tada usta Jezdra, i zakle glavare sveštenièke i Levite i svega Izrailja da uèine tako. I zakleše se.

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 Potom usta Jezdra ispred doma Božijega, i otide u klijet Joanana sina Eliasivova; i ušavši ne jede hljeba niti vode pi, jer tužaše radi prijestupa onijeh koji biše u ropstvu.

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 Potom oglasiše po Judeji i Jerusalimu svijem koji se vratiše iz ropstva, da se skupe u Jerusalim,

Then made they a proclamation throughout Judah and Jerusalem, unto all the Sons of the Exile, to gather themselves together unto Jerusalem;

8 A ko ne bi došao za tri dana po dogovoru knezovskom i starješinskom, da se sve imanje njegovo razaspe a sam da se odluèi od zbora onijeh koji se vratiše iz ropstva.

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 Tako se skupiše svi ljudi od Jude i Venijamina u Jerusalim za tri dana, mjeseca devetoga. I sjeðaše sav narod na ulici pred domom Božjim dršæuæi radi te stvari i od dažda.

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 Tada ustavši Jezdra sveštenik reèe im: vi sagriješiste što se oženiste tuðinkama, te umnožiste krivicu Izrailjevu.

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 Zato sada ispovjedite se Gospodu Bogu otaca svojih, i uèinite volju njegovu, i odvojte se od naroda zemaljskih i žena tuðinaka.

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 I sav zbor odgovori i reèe iza glasa: kako nam kaza uèiniæemo.

Then responded all the convocation and said, with a loud voice, —Thus, according to thy word concerning us, must it be done.

13 Ali naroda ima mnogo i ide dažd, ne može se stajati napolju, a taj posao nije za jedan dan ni za dva, jer nas ima mnogo koji sagriješismo u tom.

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 Da se odrede knezovi naši iz svega zbora, pa koji su god u gradovima našim oženjeni tuðinkama neka dolaze u odreðeno vrijeme i s njima starješine svakoga grada i sudije dokle ne odvratimo od sebe žestoki gnjev Boga svojega za tu stvar.

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 I odreðen bi na to Jonatan sin Asailov i Jazija sin Tekujev; a Mesulam i Savetaj Leviti pomagaše im.

Only Jonathan son of Asahel and Jahzeiah son of Tikvah, made a stand against this, —and, Meshullam and Shabbethai the Levite, helped them.

16 I uèiniše tako koji se vratiše iz ropstva. I odvojiše se Jezdra sveštenik i glavari domova otaèkih po domovima otaca svojih, svi poimence, i sjedoše prvoga dana desetoga mjeseca da izviðaju stvar.

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 I do prvoga dana prvoga mjeseca svršiše sa svima onima koji se bijahu oženili tuðinkama.

and they made an end with all the men who had married foreign women, —by the first day of the first month.

18 A naðoše se izmeðu sinova sveštenièkih oženjeni tuðinkama: izmeðu sinova Isusa sina Josedekova i braæe njegove: Masija i Elijezer i Jariv i Gedalija;

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 I dadoše ruke da æe pustiti žene svoje; i koji bijahu zgriješili prinesoše po jednoga ovna za krivicu svoju;

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.
