< Ezra 10 >

1 Now when Ezra had prayed, and when he had confessed, weeping and casting himself down before the house of God, there assembled to him out of Israel a very great congregation of men and women and children: for the people wept very sore.
Hitia hi Ezra in Pathen Houin masanglang ngatna tolla amai bohkhup a, kap pum’a chonset phong’a ataopet hin Israel mipi lah a kon’in mihon tamtah pasal, numei chuleh chapangte geijin ahung kikhom’un lung natah in amatoh akapkhom taovin ahi.
2 And Shechaniah the son of Jehiel, one of the sons of Elam, answered and said to 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.
Hichejou chun. Elam chilhah Jehiel chapa Shecaniah chun Ezra kommah hitin ahinsei tai, “Eiho hin I Pathennu masangah ikitah jou tapouve ajeh chu eihon hou neilou agamsunga cheng numeiho ikichenpi taove. Ahiyeng vang'in Israelte in kinepna aum nalaije.
3 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.
Tun eihon I Pathen utoh kitepna khat neiju hitin hichea hou neilou ijiteuhi da-gam jengu hitin achateu pum’in soldoh jengu hite. Keihon nangma le Pathen daanthu nitna neiho thupeh hi jui tao vinge.
4 Arise; for this matter belongs to you: we also will be with you: be of good courage, and do it.
Thoudoh inlang namopohna dungjuijin thil hohi suhtoh na dinga iti chal-lhah dingham neihil taovin. Keihohi nangma nungthopna dinga kahiuve hat’in lang hangtah in tong lhatan,” ahung tipeh tan ahi.
5 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 swore.
Hiti chun Ezra adingdoh in thempu lamkaiho leh Levite chuleh Israel mipite jousen Shecaniah in ahin seibang chun boldingin kihahselna neiju hite atiuvin. Hiti chun kihahselna chu aneisoh kei taove.
6 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.
Hijouchun Ezra in Pathen Houin masang chu adalhan Eliashib chapa Jehohanan kitipa insungdan achun aluttan ahi. Aman hiche munah chun anjong nelou, twijong donlouvin ageh khovah tan ahi. Amachu sohchang hung kileho kitahlou jeh in alungkham jeng nalaijin ahi.
7 And they made proclamation throughout Judah and Jerusalem to all the children of the captivity, that they should gather themselves together to Jerusalem;
Hichejou chun Judah leh Jerusalem gam pumpi sungah thuphon khat aphongdoh un sohchang hung kilekit jouse Jerusalem’a hung kikhom dingin thupeh anei taovin ahi.
8 And that whoever 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.
Koi hileh nithum sunga hunglhung lou jouse chu, lamkai holeh upa hon gellhuhna aneijuleh amaho chu anei agou hou kichomding ahi tin aki gong’un ahi.
9 Then all the men of Judah and Benjamin gathered themselves together to 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.
Hiti chun it hum sungin Judah leh Benjamin mipite jouse chu Jerusalem ah ahung kikhom sohkei taovin ahi. Hichehi lha ko lhinna, nisom ni, nikho thilsoh ahi, mipiho jouse chu Pathen Houin mai tollhangah atousoh keijun, chule amaho chu athu khoh jehleh gojuh jeh a adap jeh chun akithing thing jengun ahi.
10 And Ezra the priest stood up, and said to them, You have transgressed, and have taken strange wives, to increase the trespass of Israel.
Hijou chun thempupa Ezra chu adingdoh in amaho komma chun aseitan ahi. “Nanghon chonset khohtah chu natongdoh taovin ahi. Hou neilouho numeiho nakichen piuvin Israel chonset nasuh pungbe taovin ahi.
11 Now therefore make confession to the LORD God of your fathers, and do his pleasure: and separate yourselves from the people of the land, and from the strange wives.
Hijeh chun tuhin nanghon napu napateo Pakai Pathen komma chun nachonset phongun chuleh ama lungdei chu bollun. Hiche gamsung mite leh hounei lou numeiho’a kon’in hungpot doh un,” atin ahi.
12 Then all the congregation answered and said with a loud voice, As you have said, so must we do.
Hijouchun akikhom mipi hochun O sangtah in asammun hiti hin ahin donbut un ahi, “Adih e, naseichu adih e, keihon nasei bang banga chun kaboldiu ahi!” atiuve.
13 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.
Hijouchun amahon aseibe uvin: “Hichehi nikhat ahilou leh ni ni sunga gahchai jengthei ahipoi ajeh chu hiche chonset khohtah thuahi mi tamtah natkha a ahitai. Tu gojuh laitah hin keiho katousot thei pouve.
14 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.
Kalamkai ho’uvin keiho jouse thalhengin hiche thuhi hin boltoh taohen. Koihile namdang numei kichenpi jouse chun phat kitep dungjuiyin, akhospi sung’a lamkaite le thutanho toh hung kilhon uhen. Chutileh I Pathen u lunghanna eihoa konna akitol mang ding ahi,” atiuve.
15 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.
Hiche tohgon chu Ashahel chapa Jonathan leh Tikvah chapa Jahzeiah tenin bou adeimo lhonin chuleh Meshullam leh Levi mi Shabethai in amani chu ajop lhonin adangsen vang aphatsah sohkeijin ahi.
16 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.
Hitia chu achelhahna dingin hitihin agong’un ahi. Hichun Ezra in ama insung cheh thalheng dingin lamkai alhengdoh in hiche thalheng hochu amin cheh in ajihlut in ahi. Lhasom lhinna, ni masapen nin, lamkai hochu atoukhom’un hiche thu chu phatah in akholtoh pan un ahi.
17 And they made an end with all the men that had taken strange wives by the first day of the first month.
Akhovei kumthah kipat nikho chun hou neilou numei kichenpi ho jouse chu akholdoh sohkei taovin ahi.
18 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 brothers; Maaseiah, and Eliezer, and Jarib, and Gedaliah.
Hou neilou numei jia kichenpi thempuho chu hichenghi ahiuve: Jehozadak chapa Jeshua leh asopiho insunga kon’in: Maaseiah, Eliezer, Jarib leh Gedaliah ahiuve.
19 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.
