Книга Ездры 10
1 И егда моляшеся Ездра и егда исповедашеся плачущь и моляся пред домом Божиим, собрашася к нему от Израиля собрание велие зело, мужие и жены и отроцы яко плакахуся людие и вознесоша плачь.
Therefore, as Ezra was praying, and imploring, and weeping in this way, and was prostrate before the temple of God, an exceedingly great assembly of men and women and children was gathered to him from Israel. And the people wept with a great weeping.
2 И отвеща Сехениа сын Иеилев от сынов Иламлих и рече Ездре: мы преступихом пред Богом нашим и пояхом жены чуждия от людий земли, и ныне есть упование Израилю о сем:
And Shecaniah, the son of Jehiel, from the sons of Elam, responded and said to Ezra: “We have sinned against our God, and have taken foreign wives from the peoples of the land. And now, if there is repentance within Israel over this,
3 и ныне завещаем завет Богу нашему, да отвержем вся жены и рожденых от них, якоже хощет: востани и устраши их заповедьми Бога нашего, и по закону да будет:
let us strike a pact with the Lord our God, so that we may cast aside all the wives, and those who have been born from them, in accord with the will of the Lord, and of those who fear the precept of the Lord our God. So let it be done, according to the law.
4 востани, понеже на тебе есть глагол, и мы с тобою: укрепися и сотвори.
Rise up. It is for you to discern, and we shall be with you. Be strengthened and act.”
5 И воста Ездра, и закля князи, священники и левиты и всего Израиля, да сотворят по словеси сему. И кляшася.
Therefore, Ezra rose up, and he caused the leaders of the priests and the Levites, and all of Israel, to swear that they would act in accord with this word. And they swore it.
6 И воста Ездра от лица дому Божия и иде в сокровищный дом Ионана сына Елисувова и седе тамо: хлеба не яде и воды не пи, плакаше бо о преступлении пришедших от пленения.
And Ezra rose up before the house of God, and he went away to the chamber of Jehohanan, the son of Eliashib, and he entered into it. He did not eat bread, and he did not drink water. For he was mourning the transgression of those who had arrived from the captivity.
7 И послано бысть слово во Иудею и во Иерусалим всем сыновом преселения, да соберутся во Иерусалим:
And a voice was sent into Judah and Jerusalem, to all the sons of the transmigration, so that they would gather together in Jerusalem.
8 всяк, иже аще не приидет в три дни, по совету князей и старейшин, возмется все имение его, и той отлучен будет от сонмища преселения.
And all those who would not arrive within three days, in accord with the counsel of the leaders and the elders, would have all his substance taken away, and he would be cast out of the assembly of the transmigration.
9 И собрашася вси мужие Иудины и Вениамини во Иерусалим треми денми: сей есть месяц девятый: в двадесятый день месяца седоша вси людие пред домом Божиим трепещуще о словеси и от зимы.
And so, all the men of Judah and of Benjamin convened in Jerusalem within three days. This was in the ninth month, on the twentieth day of the month. And all the people sat in the street of the house of God, trembling because of the sin and the rain.
10 И воста Ездра священник и рече к ним: вы преступисте и взясте жены иноплеменнически, еже приложити ко греху Израилеву:
And Ezra, the priest, rose up, and he said to them: “You have transgressed, and you have taken foreign wives, so that you added to the offenses of Israel.
11 и ныне дадите хвалу Господу Богу отец наших, и сотворите угодное пред Ним, и отлучитеся от людий земли и от жен иноплеменнических.
And now, make confession to the Lord, the God of your fathers, and do what pleases him, and separate yourselves from the peoples of the land, and from your foreign wives.”
12 И отвещаша все множество гласом великим и реша: по словеси твоему к нам сотворим:
And the entire multitude responded, and they said with a great voice: “In accord with your word to us, so let be it done.
13 обаче людие мнози суть, и время зимнее, и несть мощно стояти вне: и дело несть дне единаго или двух, зело бо много согрешихом во словеси сем:
Yet truly, since the people are many, and it is the time of rain, and we cannot endure standing outside, and this is not a task for one or two days, (for certainly we have sinned greatly in this matter, )
14 да поставятся князие наши во всем множестве и во всех градех наших, иже пояша жены иноплеменничи, да приидут во времена повеленная, и с ними старейшины от всякаго града и судии, еже отвратити гнев ярости Бога нашего от нас словесе ради сего.
let leaders be appointed among the entire multitude. And in all our cities, let those who have taken foreign wives arrive at appointed times, and with them the elders from city to city, and the judges, until the wrath of our God has been averted from us over this sin.”
15 Обаче Ионафан сын Асаилев и Иасса сын Фекуев со мною о сем, и Месоллам и Савафай левитин помагаяй им.
And so Jonathan, the son of Asahel, and Jahzeiah, the son of Tikvah, were appointed over this, and the Levites Meshullam and Shabbethai assisted them.
16 И сотвориша тако сынове преселения: и разыдошася Ездра священник и мужие князие отечеств в домы, и вси по именом, яко обратишася в день первый месяца десятаго, да взыщут глагола:
And the sons of the transmigration did so. And Ezra, the priest, and the men who were the leaders of the families in the houses of their fathers, and all according to their names, went and sat down, on the first day of the tenth month, so that they might examine the matter.
17 и совершиша во всех мужех, иже пояша жены иноплеменничи, даже до дне перваго месяца перваго.
And they made an end with all the men who had taken foreign wives, by the first day of the first month.
18 И обретени суть от сынов священнических иже введоша жены иноплеменничи, от сынов Иисуса сына Иоседекова и братия его Маасиа и Елиезер, и Иарим и Гадалиа:
And there were found among the sons of the priests some who had taken foreign wives: From the sons of Jeshua, the son of Jozadak, and his brothers, Maaseiah, and Eliezer, and Jarib, and Gedaliah.
19 и даша руки своя изгонити жены своя, и согрешившии принесоша от овец о преступлении своем овна:
