Ezra 10

Now when Ezra had prayed, and when he had confessed, weeping and casting himself down before the house of God, there assembled unto him out of Israel a very great congregation of men and women and children: for the people wept very sore.
以斯拉祷告,认罪,哭泣,俯伏在 神殿前的时候,有以色列中的男女孩童聚集到以斯拉那里,成了大会,众民无不痛哭。
And Shechaniah the son of Jehiel, one of the sons of Elam, answered and said unto Ezra, We have trespassed against our God, and have taken strange wives of the people of the land: yet now there is hope in Israel concerning this thing.
属以拦的子孙、耶歇的儿子示迦尼对以斯拉说:「我们在此地娶了外邦女子为妻,干犯了我们的 神,然而以色列人还有指望。
Now therefore let us make a covenant with our God to put away all the wives, and such as are born of them, according to the counsel of my lord, and of those that tremble at the commandment of our God; and let it be done according to the law.
现在当与我们的 神立约,休这一切的妻,离绝她们所生的,照著我主和那因 神命令战兢之人所议定的,按律法而行。
Arise; for this matter belongeth unto thee: we also will be with thee: be of good courage, and do it.
你起来,这是你当办的事,我们必帮助你,你当奋勉而行。」
Then arose Ezra, and made the chief priests, the Levites, and all Israel, to swear that they should do according to this word. And they sware.
以斯拉便起来,使祭司长和利未人,并以色列众人起誓说,必照这话去行;他们就起了誓。
Then Ezra rose up from before the house of God, and went into the chamber of Johanan the son of Eliashib: and when he came thither, he did eat no bread, nor drink water: for he mourned because of the transgression of them that had been carried away.
以斯拉从 神殿前起来,进入以利亚实的儿子约哈难的屋里,到了那里不吃饭,也不喝水;因为被掳归回之人所犯的罪,心里悲伤。
And they made proclamation throughout Judah and Jerusalem unto all the children of the captivity, that they should gather themselves together unto Jerusalem;
他们通告犹大和耶路撒冷被掳归回的人,叫他们在耶路撒冷聚集。
And that whosoever would not come within three days, according to the counsel of the princes and the elders, all his substance should be forfeited, and himself separated from the congregation of those that had been carried away.
凡不遵首领和长老所议定、三日之内不来的,就必抄他的家,使他离开被掳归回之人的会。
Then all the men of Judah and Benjamin gathered themselves together unto Jerusalem within three days. It was 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 this matter, and for the great rain.
于是,犹大和便雅悯众人,三日之内都聚集在耶路撒冷。那日正是九月二十日,众人都坐在 神殿前的宽阔处;因这事,又因下大雨,就都战兢。
And Ezra the priest stood up, and said unto them, Ye have transgressed, and have taken strange wives, to increase the trespass of Israel.
祭司以斯拉站起来,对他们说:「你们有罪了;因你们娶了外邦的女子为妻,增添以色列人的罪恶。
Now therefore make confession unto the LORD God of your fathers, and do his pleasure: and separate yourselves from the people of the land, and from the strange wives.
现在当向耶和华─你们列祖的 神认罪,遵行他的旨意,离绝这些国的民和外邦的女子。」
Then all the congregation answered and said with a loud voice, As thou hast said, so must we do.
会众都大声回答说:「我们必照著你的话行,
But the people are many, and it is a time of much rain, and we are not able to stand without, neither is this a work of one day or two: for we are many that have transgressed in this thing.
只是百姓众多,又逢大雨的时令,我们不能站在外头,这也不是一两天办完的事,因我们在这事上犯了大罪;
Let now our rulers of all the congregation stand, and let all them which have taken strange wives in our cities come at appointed times, and with them the elders of every city, and the judges thereof, until the fierce wrath of our God for this matter be turned from us.
不如为全会众派首领办理。凡我们城邑中娶外邦女子为妻的,当按所定的日期,同著本城的长老和士师而来,直到办完这事, 神的烈怒就转离我们了。」
Only Jonathan the son of Asahel and Jahaziah the son of Tikvah were employed about this matter: and Meshullam and Shabbethai the Levite helped them.
惟有亚撒黑的儿子约拿单,特瓦的儿子雅哈谢阻挡(或译:总办)这事,并有米书兰和利未人沙比太帮助他们。
And the children of the captivity did so. And Ezra the priest, with certain chief of the fathers, after the house of their fathers, and all of them by their names, were separated, and sat down in the first day of the tenth month to examine the matter.
被掳归回的人如此而行。祭司以斯拉和些族长按著宗族都指名见派;在十月初一日,一同在座查办这事,
And they made an end with all the men that had taken strange wives by the first day of the first month.
到正月初一日,才查清娶外邦女子的人数。
And among the sons of the priests there were found that had taken strange wives: namely, of the sons of Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and his brethren; Maaseiah, and Eliezer, and Jarib, and Gedaliah.
在祭司中查出娶外邦女子为妻的,就是耶书亚的子孙约萨达的儿子,和他弟兄玛西雅、以利以谢、雅立、基大利;
And they gave their hands that they would put away their wives; and being guilty, they offered a ram of the flock for their trespass.
他们便应许必休他们的妻。他们因有罪,就献群中的一只公绵羊赎罪。
