以斯拉记 10
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
認罪禱告的結果
10 以斯拉禱告、認罪、哭泣,俯伏在 神的殿前的時候,有一大群以色列人,包括男女小孩,在他面前聚集;眾人也都痛哭。 2 屬以攔的子孫、耶歇的兒子示迦尼對以斯拉說:“我們對 神不忠,娶了這地這外族女子為妻。雖然這樣,以色列現在還有希望。 3 現在,我們應當與我們的 神立約,按著我主和那些因我們 神的誡命而戰兢的人所議定的,照著律法而行,送走這些妻子和她們所生的兒女。 4 你起來!因為這事全在你身上,我們支持你,你當堅強地去作。”
5 於是以斯拉起來,使祭司首領、利未人和以色列眾人起誓要照著這話去行;他們就起誓。 6 以斯拉就從 神的殿前起來,走進以利亞實的兒子約哈難的屋裡去;他在那裡不吃飯,也不喝水,因為他為了被擄歸回的人的不忠而悲傷。 7 於是,領袖們就在猶大和耶路撒冷向所有被擄歸回的人發出通告,叫他們到耶路撒冷聚集。 8 所有不照著眾領袖和眾長老所議定,在三日之內來到的人,所有的財物都要充公,也要從被擄歸回之人的會中被逐出。
9 於是猶大和便雅憫眾人,三日之內都在耶路撒冷聚集,那時是九月二十日,眾人坐在神殿的廣場上;因為這事,又因為天下大雨的緣故,大家就都戰慄發抖。 10 以斯拉祭司站起來,對他們說:“你們對 神不忠,娶了外族的女子為妻,增添了以色列的罪過。 11 現在你們要向耶和華你們列祖的 神認罪,遵行他所喜悅的旨意,與這地的民族和外族的女子分離。” 12 全體會眾都大聲回答說:“你怎麼說,我們就怎麼行。 13 可是人太多,又逢下大雨的季節,我們不能停留在外面;這又不是一兩天可以完成的事,因為我們很多人在這事上犯了罪! 14 讓我們的領袖代表全體會眾站在耶和華面前,所有在我們的城中娶了外族女子為妻的人,也都要在指定的日期,與本城的長老和審判官一起來,解決了這事,好使 神因這事所發的烈怒離開我們。” 15 只有亞撒黑的兒子約拿單和特瓦的兒子雅哈謝起來反對這提議,還有米書蘭和利未人沙比太支持他們。
16 於是,被擄歸回的人就這樣行。以斯拉祭司提名選派了一些人,是各宗族的族長,於十月初一他們一同坐下來查辦這事。 17 直到正月初一,他們才完成審查所有娶了外族的女子為妻的人。

Ezra 10
King James Version
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.
2 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.
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.
4 Arise; for this matter belongeth unto thee: we also will be with thee: be of good courage, and do it.
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 sware.
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.
7 And they made proclamation throughout Judah and Jerusalem unto all the children of the captivity, that they should gather themselves together unto Jerusalem;
8 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.
9 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.
10 And Ezra the priest stood up, and said unto them, Ye have transgressed, and have taken strange wives, to increase the trespass of Israel.
11 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.
12 Then all the congregation answered and said with a loud voice, As thou hast said, so must we do.
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.
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.
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.
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.
17 And they made an end with all the men that had taken strange wives by the first day of the first month.
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 brethren; Maaseiah, and Eliezer, and Jarib, and Gedaliah.
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.
20 And of the sons of Immer; Hanani, and Zebadiah.
21 And of the sons of Harim; Maaseiah, and Elijah, and Shemaiah, and Jehiel, and Uzziah.
22 And of the sons of Pashur; Elioenai, Maaseiah, Ishmael, Nethaneel, Jozabad, and Elasah.
23 Also of the Levites; Jozabad, and Shimei, and Kelaiah, (the same is Kelita,) Pethahiah, Judah, and Eliezer.
24 Of the singers also; Eliashib: and of the porters; Shallum, and Telem, and Uri.
25 Moreover of Israel: of the sons of Parosh; Ramiah, and Jeziah, and Malchiah, and Miamin, and Eleazar, and Malchijah, and Benaiah.
26 And of the sons of Elam; Mattaniah, Zechariah, and Jehiel, and Abdi, and Jeremoth, and Eliah.
27 And of the sons of Zattu; Elioenai, Eliashib, Mattaniah, and Jeremoth, and Zabad, and Aziza.
28 Of the sons also of Bebai; Jehohanan, Hananiah, Zabbai, and Athlai.
29 And of the sons of Bani; Meshullam, Malluch, and Adaiah, Jashub, and Sheal, and Ramoth.
30 And of the sons of Pahathmoab; Adna, and Chelal, Benaiah, Maaseiah, Mattaniah, Bezaleel, and Binnui, and Manasseh.
31 And of the sons of Harim; Eliezer, Ishijah, Malchiah, Shemaiah, Shimeon,
32 Benjamin, Malluch, and Shemariah.
33 Of the sons of Hashum; Mattenai, Mattathah, Zabad, Eliphelet, Jeremai, Manasseh, and Shimei.
34 Of the sons of Bani; Maadai, Amram, and Uel,
35 Benaiah, Bedeiah, Chelluh,
36 Vaniah, Meremoth, Eliashib,
37 Mattaniah, Mattenai, and Jaasau,
38 And Bani, and Binnui, Shimei,
39 And Shelemiah, and Nathan, and Adaiah,
40 Machnadebai, Shashai, Sharai,
41 Azareel, and Shelemiah, Shemariah,
42 Shallum, Amariah, and Joseph.
43 Of the sons of Nebo; Jeiel, Mattithiah, Zabad, Zebina, Jadau, and Joel, Benaiah.
44 All these had taken strange wives: and some of them had wives by whom they had children.
