'Ezra 10:1-2' not found for the version: Ang Bagong Tipan: Filipino Standard Version.

10 Habang si Ezra nga ay dumadalangin, at nagpapahayag ng kasalanan na umiiyak at nagpapatirapa sa harap ng bahay ng Dios, nagpipisan sa kaniya mula sa Israel ang isang napakalaking kapisanan ng mga lalake at mga babae at mga bata: sapagka't ang bayan ay umiyak na mainam.

At si Sechanias na anak ni Jehiel, na isa sa mga anak ni Elam, ay sumagot at nagsabi kay Ezra: Kami ay nagsisalangsang laban sa ating Dios, at nangagasawa sa mga babaing taga ibang bayan ng lupain: gayon man, may pagasa sa Israel tungkol sa bagay na ito.

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.

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.

The People’s Confession of Sin

10 While Ezra was praying and confessing,(A) weeping(B) and throwing himself down before the house of God, a large crowd of Israelites—men, women and children—gathered around him. They too wept bitterly. Then Shekaniah son of Jehiel, one of the descendants of Elam,(C) said to Ezra, “We have been unfaithful(D) to our God by marrying foreign women from the peoples around us. But in spite of this, there is still hope for Israel.(E)
