Ezra 10
1 A kad se moljaše Jezdra i ispovijedaše grijehe plaèuæi i ležeæi pred domom Božjim, skupi se k njemu iz Izrailja veliko mnoštvo ljudi i žena i djece; i narod plakaše veoma.
As Ezra prayed and confessed, he wept and threw himself down before God's house. A very great assembly of Israelite men, women, and children gathered to him, for the people were weeping very greatly.
2 Tada progovori Sehanija sin Jehilov od sinova Elamovijeh i reèe Jezdri: mi smo sagriješili Bogu svojemu što uzesmo žene tuðinke iz naroda zemaljskih; ali još ima nadanja Izrailju za to.
Shekaniah son of Jehiel of the descendants of Elam said to Ezra, “We have been unfaithful to our God and have married foreign women from the people of the other lands. But in spite of this, there is still hope for Israel.
3 Da uèinimo sada zavjet Bogu svojemu, da otpustimo sve žene i porod njihov po volji Gospodnjoj i onijeh koji se boje zapovijesti Boga našega, i po zakonu neka bude.
So now let us make a covenant with our God to send out all the women and their children according to the Lord's instructions and the instructions of those who tremble at the commandments of our God, and let it be done according to the law.
4 Ustani, jer je ovo tvoj posao; a mi æemo biti uza te, budi slobodan i radi.
Arise, for this thing is for you to carry out, and we are with you. Be strong and do this.”
5 Tada usta Jezdra, i zakle glavare sveštenièke i Levite i svega Izrailja da uèine tako. I zakleše se.
So Ezra rose and made the priestly officials, the Levites, and all of Israel promise to act in this way. So they all took a solemn oath.
6 Potom usta Jezdra ispred doma Božijega, i otide u klijet Joanana sina Eliasivova; i ušavši ne jede hljeba niti vode pi, jer tužaše radi prijestupa onijeh koji biše u ropstvu.
Then Ezra rose from before God's house and went to the rooms of Jehohanan son of Eliashib. He did not eat any bread or drink any water, since he was mourning concerning the faithlessness of those who had been in captivity.
7 Potom oglasiše po Judeji i Jerusalimu svijem koji se vratiše iz ropstva, da se skupe u Jerusalim,
So they sent word in Judah and Jerusalem to all the people back from exile to assemble in Jerusalem.
8 A ko ne bi došao za tri dana po dogovoru knezovskom i starješinskom, da se sve imanje njegovo razaspe a sam da se odluèi od zbora onijeh koji se vratiše iz ropstva.
Anyone who did not come in three days according to the instructions from the officials and elders forfeited all of his possessions and would be excluded from the great assembly of the people who had come back from exile.
9 Tako se skupiše svi ljudi od Jude i Venijamina u Jerusalim za tri dana, mjeseca devetoga. I sjeðaše sav narod na ulici pred domom Božjim dršæuæi radi te stvari i od dažda.
So all the men of Judah and Benjamin assembled in Jerusalem in three days. It was the ninth month and the twentieth day of the month. All the people stood in the square before God's house and trembled because of the word and the rain.
10 Tada ustavši Jezdra sveštenik reèe im: vi sagriješiste što se oženiste tuðinkama, te umnožiste krivicu Izrailjevu.
Ezra the priest arose and said, “You yourselves have committed treason. You lived with foreign women so as to increase Israel's guilt.
11 Zato sada ispovjedite se Gospodu Bogu otaca svojih, i uèinite volju njegovu, i odvojte se od naroda zemaljskih i žena tuðinaka.
But now give praise to Yahweh, your ancestors' God, and do his will. Separate from the people of the land and from the foreign women.”
12 I sav zbor odgovori i reèe iza glasa: kako nam kaza uèiniæemo.
All the assembly answered in a loud voice, “We will do as you have said.
13 Ali naroda ima mnogo i ide dažd, ne može se stajati napolju, a taj posao nije za jedan dan ni za dva, jer nas ima mnogo koji sagriješismo u tom.
However, there are many people, and it is the rainy season. We have no strength to stand outside, and this is not only one or two days of work, since we have greatly transgressed in this matter.
14 Da se odrede knezovi naši iz svega zbora, pa koji su god u gradovima našim oženjeni tuðinkama neka dolaze u odreðeno vrijeme i s njima starješine svakoga grada i sudije dokle ne odvratimo od sebe žestoki gnjev Boga svojega za tu stvar.
So let our officials represent all the assembly. Let all who have allowed foreign women to live in our cities come at the time that will be fixed with the city elders and the city judges until the raging wrath of our God goes away from us.”
15 I odreðen bi na to Jonatan sin Asailov i Jazija sin Tekujev; a Mesulam i Savetaj Leviti pomagaše im.
Jonathan son of Asahel and Jahzeiah son of Tikvah opposed this, and Meshullam and Shabbethai the Levite supported them.
16 I uèiniše tako koji se vratiše iz ropstva. I odvojiše se Jezdra sveštenik i glavari domova otaèkih po domovima otaca svojih, svi poimence, i sjedoše prvoga dana desetoga mjeseca da izviðaju stvar.
So the people who returned from exile did this. Ezra the priest selected men, the leaders in their ancestors' clans and houses—all of them by name, and they looked into the matter on the first day of the tenth month.
17 I do prvoga dana prvoga mjeseca svršiše sa svima onima koji se bijahu oženili tuðinkama.
By the first day of the first month they had finished discovering which men had lived with foreign women.
18 A naðoše se izmeðu sinova sveštenièkih oženjeni tuðinkama: izmeðu sinova Isusa sina Josedekova i braæe njegove: Masija i Elijezer i Jariv i Gedalija;
Among the descendants of the priests there were those who had lived with foreign women. Among the descendants of Jeshua son of Jozadak and his brothers there were Maaseiah, Eliezer, Jarib, and Gedaliah.
19 I dadoše ruke da æe pustiti žene svoje; i koji bijahu zgriješili prinesoše po jednoga ovna za krivicu svoju;
So they determined to send their wives away. Since they were guilty, they offered a ram from the flock for their guilt.
