Cesraa 10

1 Haddaba intii Cesraa tukanayay oo uu wax qiranayay isagoo ooyaya oo isku tuuraya guriga Ilaah hortiisa, waxaa isagii reer binu Israa'iil uga soo ururay shir aad u weyn oo rag iyo dumar iyo carruurba leh, waayo, dadkii aad bay u ooyeen.

Now while Ezra prayed and made confession, weeping and casting himself down before God’s house, there was gathered together to him out of Israel a very great assembly of men and women and children; for the people wept very bitterly.

2 Oo Shekaanyaah oo ahaa ina Yexii'eel oo ahaa reer Ceelaam wuxuu u jawaabay Cesraa, oo ku yidhi, Annagu waxaannu ku xadgudubnay Ilaahayo, oo naago qalaad ayaannu ka guursannay dadyowgii dalka; laakiinse reer binu Israa'iil weli waxay leeyihiin rajo xaalkan ku saabsan.

Shecaniah the son of Jehiel, one of the sons of Elam, answered Ezra, “We have trespassed against our God, and have married foreign women of the peoples of the land. Yet now there is hope for Israel concerning this thing.

3 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed aannu Ilaahayo axdi la dhiganno innaannu iska erinno naagahaas oo dhan, iyo intii ay dhaleenba, sidii ay tahay talada sayidkayga, iyo ta kuwa ka gariira amarka Ilaahayo, oo sidii sharciga waafaqsan ha loo sameeyo.

Now therefore let’s make a covenant with our God to put away all the wives and those who are born of them, according to the counsel of my lord and of those who tremble at the commandment of our God. Let it be done according to the law.

4 Haddaba kac, waayo, xaalkan adiguu ku dul saaran yahay, oo annana waannu kula jirnaa; si wanaagsan u dhiirranow, oo samee.

Arise, for the matter belongs to you and we are with you. Be courageous, and do it.”

5 Markaasaa Cesraa kacay oo wuxuu wadaaddadii sare iyo reer Laawi iyo reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan ku wada dhaariyey inay sameeyaan sida eraygaasu leeyahay. Oo iyana saasay ku wada dhaarteen.

Then Ezra arose, and made the chiefs of the priests, the Levites, and all Israel to swear that they would do according to this word. So they swore.

6 Markaasaa Cesraa ka kacay gurigii Ilaah hortiisa, oo wuxuu galay qolkii Yehooxaanaan oo ahaa ina Eliyaashiib, oo markuu halkaas yimid waxba kibis ma uu cunin, biyona ma uu cabbin, waayo, wuxuu u baroortay xadgudubkii ay sameeyeen dadkii maxaabiisnimada ka soo noqday.

Then Ezra rose up from before God’s house, and went into the room of Jehohanan the son of Eliashib. When he came there, he did not eat bread or drink water, for he mourned because of the trespass of the exiles.

7 Markaasay ka dhex naadiyeen dalka reer Yahuudah iyo Yeruusaalem oo ogeysiis gaadhsiiyeen dadkii maxaabiisnimada ka soo noqday oo dhan inay dhammaantood Yeruusaalem ku soo wada ururaan.

They made a proclamation throughout Judah and Jerusalem to all the children of the captivity, that they should gather themselves together to Jerusalem;

8 Oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Ku alla kii aan intii saddex maalmood ah iman, sida ay ku taliyeen amiirrada iyo odayaashu, maalkiisa oo dhan waa laga xaaraamayn doonaa, oo isaga qudhiisana gooni baa looga sooci doonaa ururka dadkii maxaabiisnimada ka soo noqday.

and that whoever did not come within three days, according to the counsel of the princes and the elders, all his possessions should be forfeited, and he himself separated from the assembly of the captivity.

9 Markaasaa raggii reer Yahuudah iyo reer Benyaamiin oo dhammu intii saddex maalmood ah ku soo wada urureen Yeruusaalem, oo taasu waxay ahayd bishii sagaalaad maalinteedii labaatanaad, kolkaasaa dadkii oo dhammu wuxuu fadhiistay bannaankii guriga Ilaah hortiisa ahaa, iyagoo gariiraya xaalkan aawadiis iyo roobkii weynaa daraaddiis.

Then all the men of Judah and Benjamin gathered themselves together to Jerusalem within the three days. It was the ninth month, on the twentieth day of the month; and all the people sat in the wide place in front of God’s house, trembling because of this matter, and because of the great rain.

10 Markaasaa waxaa istaagay wadaadkii Cesraa ahaa oo wuxuu dadkii ku yidhi, Idinku waad xadgudubteen oo waxaad guursateen naago qalaad, oo sidaasaad reer binu Israa'iil xujada ugu sii kordhiseen.

Ezra the priest stood up and said to them, “You have trespassed, and have married foreign women, increasing the guilt of Israel.

11 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed dembigiinna u qirta Rabbiga ah Ilaahii awowayaashiin, oo sameeya wax isaga ka farxiya; oo gooni isaga sooca dadyowga dalka deggan, iyo naagaha qalaadba.

Now therefore make confession to the LORD, the God of your fathers and do his pleasure. Separate yourselves from the peoples of the land and from the foreign women.”

12 Markaasaa ururkii oo dhammu isku mar jawaabeen oo cod dheer ku yidhaahdeen, Waa inaannu samaynaa sidaad xaalkayaga ka tidhi.

Then all the assembly answered with a loud voice, “We must do as you have said concerning us.

13 Laakiinse dadku wuu badan yahay, oo wakhtiganna waxaa jira roob badan, oo annana dibadda ma taagnaan karno, tanuna ma aha shuqul lagu qaban karo maalin iyo laba toona, waayo, annagu xaalkan aad baannu ugu xadgudubnay.

But the people are many, and it is a time of much rain, and we are not able to stand outside. This is not a work of one day or two, for we have greatly transgressed in this matter.

14 Haddaba amiirradayadu ururka oo dhan ha isu taageen oo kulli inta naagaha qalaad guursatay oo magaalooyinkayaga jooga oo dhammu wakhti la ballamay ha yimaadeen, oo iyaga ha soo raaceen magaalo kasta odayaasheeda iyo xaakinnadeedu, jeeray cadhada kulul oo Ilaahayo ee xaalkan ku saabsan naga rogmato.

Now let our princes be appointed for all the assembly, and let all those who are in our cities who have married foreign women come at appointed times, and with them the elders of every city and its judges, until the fierce wrath of our God is turned from us, until this matter is resolved.”

15 Laakiinse xaalkan waxaa keliyahu hor istaagay Yoonaataan ina Casaaheel iyo Yaxaasyaah ina Tiqwaah; waxaana caawiyey Meshullaam iyo Shabbetay oo ahaa reer Laawi.

Only Jonathan the son of Asahel and Jahzeiah the son of Tikvah stood up against this; and Meshullam and Shabbethai the Levite helped them.

16 Oo dadkii maxaabiisnimada ka soo noqdayna saasay yeeleen. Oo waxaa gooni ahaan loo soocay wadaadkii Cesraa ahaa, iyo kuwo madax ah oo ka socda qolooyinkoodii, oo kulligoodna magacyadooda loogu wada yeedhay, oo iyana bishii tobnaad maalinteedii kowaad ayay u fadhiisteen inay xaalkan soo baadhaan.

The children of the captivity did so. Ezra the priest, with certain heads of fathers’ households, after their fathers’ houses, and all of them by their names, were set apart; and they sat down in the first day of the tenth month to examine the matter.

17 Oo waxay xaalka ku saabsan raggii naagaha qalaad guursaday oo dhan dhammeeyeen bishii kowaad maalinteedii kowaad.

They finished with all the men who had married foreign women by the first day of the first month.

18 Oo wiilashii wadaaddada waxaa laga dhex helay kuwo naago qalaad guursaday; waxayna ahaayeen wiilashii Yeeshuuca, ina Yoosaadaaq iyo walaalihiis oo ahaa Macaseeyaah, iyo Eliiceser, iyo Yaariib iyo Gedalyaah.

Among the sons of the priests there were found who had married foreign women: of the sons of Jeshua, the son of Jozadak, and his brothers: Maaseiah, Eliezer, Jarib, and Gedaliah.

19 Oo iyana waxay gacantooda ku dhiibeen oo ku ballanqaadeen inay naagahooda eryaan, oo iyagoo xujo leh waxay xujadooda ugu bixiyeen wan idaha laga soo qabtay.

They gave their hand that they would put away their wives; and being guilty, they offered a ram of the flock for their guilt.
