Ezra 10
Swete's Septuagint · Berean Standard Bible
Καὶ ὡς ἐπροσηύξατο Ἔσρας, καὶ ὡς προσηγόρευσεν κλαίων προσευχόμενος ἐνώπιον οἴκου τοῦ θεοῦ, συνήχθησαν πρὸς αὐτὸν ἀπὸ Ἰσραὴλ ἐκκλησία πολλὴ σφόδρα, ἄνδρες καὶ γυναῖκες καὶ νεανίσκοι· ὅτι ἔκλαυσεν ὁ λαὸς καὶ ὕψωσεν κλαίων.
While Ezra prayed and made this confession, weeping and falling facedown before the house of God, a very large assembly of Israelites—men, women, and children—gathered around him, and the people wept bitterly as well.
καὶ ἀπεκρίθη Σεχενίας υἱὸς Ἰεὴλ ἀπὸ υἱῶν Ἠλὰμ καὶ εἶπεν τῷ Ἔσρᾳ Ἡεὶς ἠσυνθετήσαμεν τῷ θεῷ ἡμῶν καὶ ἐκαθίσαμεν γυναῖκας ἀλλοτρίας ἀπὸ λαῶν τῆς γῆς· καὶ νῦν ἐστὶν ὑπομονὴ τῷ Ἰσραὴλ ἐπὶ τούτῳ.
Then Shecaniah son of Jehiel, an Elamite, said to Ezra: “We have been unfaithful to our God by marrying foreign women from the people of the land, yet in spite of this, there is hope for Israel.
καὶ νῦν διαθώμεθα διαθήκην τῷ θεῷ ἡμῶν ἐκβαλεῖν πάσας τὰς γυναῖκας καὶ τὰ γενόμενα ἐξ αὐτῶν, ὡς ἂν βούλῃ· ἀνάστηθι καὶ φοβέρισον αὐτοὺς ἐν ἐντολαῖς θεοῦ ἡμῶν, καὶ ὡς ὁ νόμος γενηθήτω.
So now let us make a covenant before our God to send away all the foreign wives and their children, according to the counsel of my lord and of those who tremble at the command of our God. Let it be done according to the Law.
ἀνάστα, ὅτι ἐπὶ σὲ τὸ ῥῆμα, καὶ ἡμεῖς μετὰ σοῦ· κραταιοῦ καὶ ποίησον.
Get up, for this matter is your responsibility, and we will support you. Be strong and take action!”
καὶ ἀνέστη Ἔσρας καὶ ὥρκισεν τοὺς ἄρχοντας, τοὺς Λευείτας καὶ πάντα Ἰσραήλ, τοῦ ποιῆσαι κατὰ τὸ ἡῆμα τοῦτο· καὶ ὤμοσαν.
So Ezra got up and made the leading priests, Levites, and all Israel take an oath to do what had been said. And they took the oath.
καὶ ἀνέστη Ἔσρας ἀπὸ προσώπου οἴκου τοῦ θεοῦ, καὶ ἐπορεύθη εἰς γαζοφυλάκιον Ἰωανὰν υἱοῦ Ἐλεισούβ, καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐκεῖ· ἄρτον οὐκ ἔφαγεν καὶ ὕδωρ οὐκ ἔπιεν, ὅτι ἐπένθει ἐπὶ ἀσυνθεσίᾳ τῆς ἀποικίας.
Then Ezra withdrew from before the house of God and walked to the chamber of Jehohanan son of Eliashib. And while he stayed (note: Or went) there, he ate no food and drank no water, because he was mourning over the unfaithfulness of the exiles.
καὶ παρήνεγκαν φωνὴν Ἰούδᾳ καὶ ἐν Ἰερουσαλήμ
And a proclamation was issued throughout Judah and Jerusalem that all the exiles should gather at Jerusalem.
Πᾶς ὃς ἂν μὴ ἔλθῃ εἰς τρεῖς ἡμέρας ὡς ἡ βουλὴ τῶν ἀρχόντων καὶ τῶν πρεσβυτέρων, ἀναθεματισθήσεται πᾶσα ἡ ὕπαρξις αὐτοῦ, καὶ αὐτὸς διασταλήσεται ἀπὸ ἐκκλησίας τῆς ἀποι κίας.
Whoever failed to appear within three days would forfeit all his property, according to the counsel of the leaders and elders, and would himself be expelled from the assembly of the exiles.
Καὶ συνήχθησαν πάντες ἄνδρες Ἰούδα καὶ Βενιαμεὶν εἰς Ἰερουσαλὴμ εἰς τὰς τρεῖς ἡμέρας, οὗτος μὴν ὁ ἔνατος· ἐν εἰκάδι τοῦ μηνὸς ἐκάθισεν πᾶς ὁ λαὸς ἐν πλατείᾳ οἴκου τοῦ θεοῦ, ἀπὸ θορύβου αὐτῶν περὶ τοῦ ῥήματος καὶ ἀπὸ τοῦ χειμῶνος.
So within the three days, all the men of Judah and Benjamin assembled in Jerusalem, and on the twentieth day of the ninth month, all the people sat in the square at the house of God, trembling regarding this matter and because of the heavy rain.
καὶ ἀνέστη Ἔσρας ὁ ἱερεὺς καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτούς Ὑμεῖς ἠσυνθετήκατε καὶ ἐκαθίσατε γυναῖκας ἀλλοτρίας, τοῦ προσθεῖναι ἐπὶ πλημμέλειαν Ἰσραήλ.
Then Ezra the priest stood up and said to them, “You have been unfaithful by marrying foreign women, adding to the guilt of Israel.
καὶ νῦν δότε αἴνεσιν τῷ θεῷ τῶν πατέρων ἡμῶν, καὶ ποιήσατε τὸ ἀρεστὸν ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ, καὶ διαστάλητε ἀπὸ λαῶν τῆς γῆς καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν γυναικῶν τῶν ἀλλοτρίων.
Now, therefore, make a confession to the LORD, the God of your fathers, and do His will. Separate yourselves from the people of the land and from your foreign wives.”
καὶ ἀπεκρίθησαν πᾶσα ἐκκλησία καὶ εἶπαν Μέγα τοῦτο τὸ ῥῆμά σου ἐφʼ ἡμᾶς ποιῆσαι.
And the whole assembly responded in a loud voice: “Truly we must do as you say!
ἀλλὰ ὁ λαὸς πολύς, καὶ ὁ τόπος χειμερινός, καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν δύναμις στῆναι ἔξω· καὶ τὸ ἔργον οὐκ εἰς ἡμέραν μίαν καὶ οὐκ εἰς δύο, ὅτι ἐπληθύναμεν τοῦ ἀδικῆσαι ἐν τῷ ῥήματι τούτῳ.
But there are many people here, and it is the rainy season. We are not able to stay out in the open. Nor is this the work of one or two days, for we have transgressed greatly in this matter.
στήτωσαν δὴ ἄρχοντες ἡμῶν· καὶ πᾶσιν τοῖς ἐν πόλεσιν ἡμῶν ὃς ἐκάθισεν γυναῖκας ἀλλοτρίας, ἐλθέτωσαν εἰς καιροὺς ἀπὸ συναγαγῶν, καὶ μετʼ αὐτῶν πρεσβύτεροι πόλεως καὶ πόλεως καὶ κριταί, τοῦ ἀποστρέψαι ὀργὴν θυμοῦ θεοῦ ἡμῶν ἐξ ἡμῶν περὶ τοῦ ῥήματος τούτου.
Let our leaders represent the whole assembly. Then let everyone in our towns who has married a foreign woman come at an appointed time, together with the elders and judges of each town, until the fierce anger of our God in this matter is turned away from us.”
πλὴν Ἰωναθὰν υἱὸς Ἁσὴλ καὶ Λαζειὰ υἱὸς Ἑλκειὰ μετʼ ἐμοῦ περὶ τούτου, καὶ Μεσουλὰμ καὶ Σαβαθαὶ ὁ Λευείτης βοηθῶν αὐτοῖς.
(Only Jonathan son of Asahel and Jahzeiah son of Tikvah, supported by Meshullam and Shabbethai the Levite, opposed this plan.)
καὶ ἐποίησαν οὕτως υἱοὶ τῆς ἀποικίας· καὶ διεστάλησαν Ἐσρας ὁ ἱερεὺς καὶ ἄνδρες ἄρχοντες πατριῶν τῷ οἴκῳ καὶ πάντες ἐν ὀνόμασιν, ὅτι ἐπέστρεψαν ἐν ἡμέρᾳ τοῦ μηνὸς τοῦ δεκάτου ἐκζητῆσαι τὸ ῥῆμα.
So the exiles did as proposed. Ezra the priest selected men who were family heads, each of them identified by name, to represent their families. On the first day of the tenth month they launched the investigation,
καὶ ἐτέλεσαν ἐν πᾶσιν ἀνδράσιν οἳ ἐκάθισαν γυναῖκας ἀλλοτρίας ἕως ἡμέρας μιᾶς τοῦ μηνὸς τοῦ πρώτου.
and by the first day of the first month they had dealt with all the men who had married foreign women.
Καὶ εὑρέθη ἀπὸ υἱῶν τῶν ἱερέων οἳ ἐκάθισαν γυναῖκας ἀλλοτρίας· ἀπὸ υἱῶν Ἰησοῦ υἱοῦ Ἰωσεδὲκ, καὶ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτοῦ Μεεσσὴλ καὶ Ἐλιέζερ καὶ Ἰαρεὶμ καὶ Γαδαλειά·
Among the descendants of the priests who had married foreign women were found these descendants of Jeshua son of Jozadak (note: Jozadak is a variant of Jehozadak; see 1 Chronicles 6:14.) and his brothers: Maaseiah, Eliezer, Jarib, and Gedaliah.
καὶ ἔδωκαν χεῖρα αὐτῶν τοῦ ἐξενέγκαι γυναῖκας αὐτῶν καὶ πλημμελείας κριὸν ἐκ προβάτων περὶ πλημμελήσεως αὐτῶν·
They pledged to send their wives away, and for their guilt they presented a ram from the flock as a guilt offering.
