Ezra 10
1 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.
以斯拉禱告，認罪，哭泣，俯伏在上帝殿前的時候，有以色列中的男女孩童聚集到以斯拉那裏，成了大會，眾民無不痛哭。
2 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,
屬以攔的子孫、耶歇的兒子示迦尼對以斯拉說：「我們在此地娶了外邦女子為妻，干犯了我們的上帝，然而以色列人還有指望。
3 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.
現在當與我們的上帝立約，休這一切的妻，離絕她們所生的，照着我主和那因上帝命令戰兢之人所議定的，按律法而行。
4 Rise up. It is for you to discern, and we shall be with you. Be strengthened and act.”
你起來，這是你當辦的事，我們必幫助你，你當奮勉而行。」
5 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.
以斯拉便起來，使祭司長和利未人，並以色列眾人起誓說，必照這話去行；他們就起了誓。
6 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.
以斯拉從上帝殿前起來，進入以利亞實的兒子約哈難的屋裏，到了那裏不吃飯，也不喝水；因為被擄歸回之人所犯的罪，心裏悲傷。
7 And a voice was sent into Judah and Jerusalem, to all the sons of the transmigration, so that they would gather together in Jerusalem.
他們通告猶大和耶路撒冷被擄歸回的人，叫他們在耶路撒冷聚集。
8 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.
凡不遵首領和長老所議定、三日之內不來的，就必抄他的家，使他離開被擄歸回之人的會。
9 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.
於是，猶大和便雅憫眾人，三日之內都聚集在耶路撒冷。那日正是九月二十日，眾人都坐在上帝殿前的寬闊處；因這事，又因下大雨，就都戰兢。
10 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.
祭司以斯拉站起來，對他們說：「你們有罪了；因你們娶了外邦的女子為妻，增添以色列人的罪惡。
11 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.”
現在當向耶和華－你們列祖的上帝認罪，遵行他的旨意，離絕這些國的民和外邦的女子。」
12 And the entire multitude responded, and they said with a great voice: “In accord with your word to us, so let be it done.
會眾都大聲回答說：「我們必照着你的話行，
13 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, )
只是百姓眾多，又逢大雨的時令，我們不能站在外頭，這也不是一兩天辦完的事，因我們在這事上犯了大罪；
14 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.”
不如為全會眾派首領辦理。凡我們城邑中娶外邦女子為妻的，當按所定的日期，同着本城的長老和士師而來，直到辦完這事，上帝的烈怒就轉離我們了。」
15 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.
惟有亞撒黑的兒子約拿單，特瓦的兒子雅哈謝阻擋這事，並有米書蘭和利未人沙比太幫助他們。
16 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.
被擄歸回的人如此而行。祭司以斯拉和些族長按着宗族都指名見派；在十月初一日，一同在座查辦這事，
17 And they made an end with all the men who had taken foreign 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數。
18 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.
在祭司中查出娶外邦女子為妻的，就是耶書亞的子孫約薩達的兒子，和他弟兄瑪西雅、以利以謝、雅立、基大利；
19 And they swore with their hands that they would cast aside their wives, and that they would offer for their offense a ram from among the sheep.
他們便應許必休他們的妻。他們因有罪，就獻群中的一隻公綿羊贖罪。
