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.
While Ezra prayed and made this confession, weeping and falling facedown before the house of God, a very large assembly of Israelites—men, women, and children—gathered around him, and the people wept bitterly as well.
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.
Then Shecaniah son of Jehiel, an Elamite, said to Ezra: “We have been unfaithful to our God by marrying foreign women from the people of the land, yet in spite of this, there is hope for Israel.
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.
So now let us make a covenant before our God to send away all the foreign wives and their children, according to the counsel of my lord and of those who tremble at the command 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.
Get up, for this matter is your responsibility, and we will support you. Be strong and take action!”
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.
So Ezra got up and made the leading priests, Levites, and all Israel take an oath to do what had been said. And they took the oath.
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 withdrew from before the house of God and walked to the chamber of Jehohanan son of Eliashib. And while he stayed there, he ate no food and drank no water, because he was mourning over the unfaithfulness 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.
And a proclamation was issued throughout Judah and Jerusalem that all the exiles should gather at 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.
Whoever failed to appear within three days would forfeit all his property, according to the counsel of the leaders and elders, and would himself be expelled from the assembly of the exiles.
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.
So within the three days, all the men of Judah and Benjamin assembled in Jerusalem, and on the twentieth day of the ninth month, all the people sat in the square at the house of God, trembling regarding this matter and because of the heavy 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.
Then Ezra the priest stood up and said to them, “You have been unfaithful by marrying foreign women, adding to 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 a confession to the LORD, the God of your fathers, and do His will. Separate yourselves from the people of the land and from your foreign wives.”
12 Markaasaa ururkii oo dhammu isku mar jawaabeen oo cod dheer ku yidhaahdeen, Waa inaannu samaynaa sidaad xaalkayaga ka tidhi.
And the whole assembly responded in a loud voice: “Truly we must do as you say!
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 there are many people here, and it is the rainy season. We are not able to stay out in the open. Nor is this the work of one or two days, for we have transgressed greatly 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.
Let our leaders represent the whole assembly. Then let everyone in our towns who has married a foreign woman come at an appointed time, together with the elders and judges of each town, until the fierce anger of our God in this matter is turned away from us.”
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 son of Asahel and Jahzeiah son of Tikvah, supported by Meshullam and Shabbethai the Levite, opposed this plan.)
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.
So the exiles did as proposed. Ezra the priest selected men who were family heads, each of them identified by name, to represent their families. On the first day of the tenth month they launched the investigation,
17 Oo waxay xaalka ku saabsan raggii naagaha qalaad guursaday oo dhan dhammeeyeen bishii kowaad maalinteedii kowaad.
and by the first day of the first month they had dealt with all the men who had married foreign women.
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 descendants of the priests who had married foreign women were found these descendants of Jeshua 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 pledged to send their wives away, and for their guilt they presented a ram from the flock as a guilt offering.
