Ezra 10

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	SAGRADA BIBLIA
1 Therefore, as Ezra was praying, and imploring, and weeping in this way, and was prostrate before the temple of God, an exceedingly great assembly of men and women and children was gathered to him from Israel. And the people wept with a great weeping.	1 Enquanto Esdras, prostrado diante da casa de Deus, fazia chorando esta prece e esta confissão, foi-se reunindo em torno dele uma multidão numerosa de israelitas, homens, mulheres e crianças; e o povo também derramava abundantes lágrimas.
2 And Shecaniah, the son of Jehiel, from the sons of Elam, responded and said to Ezra: “We have sinned against our God, and have taken foreign wives from the peoples of the land. And now, if there is repentance within Israel over this,	2 Então Sequenias, filho de Jeiel, dos filhos de Elão, tomou a palavra e disse a Esdras: Nós pecamos contra o nosso Deus, tomando por mulheres as estrangeiras pertencentes ao povo desta terra. Entretanto, resta ainda uma esperança para Israel.
3 let us strike a pact with the Lord our God, so that we may cast aside all the wives, and those who have been born from them, in accord with the will of the Lord, and of those who fear the precept of the Lord our God. So let it be done, according to the law.	3 Façamos, agora, uma aliança com nosso Deus: proponhamo-nos a mandar de volta todas essas mulheres e seus filhos, de conformidade com o teu conselho e o daqueles que têm respeito pelos mandamentos de nosso Deus. E que seja feito segundo manda a lei.
4 Rise up. It is for you to discern, and we shall be with you. Be strengthened and act.”	4 Levanta-te, pois, para regulamentar este trabalho. Estaremos contigo. Coragem, e mãos à obra!
5 Therefore, Ezra rose up, and he caused the leaders of the priests and the Levites, and all of Israel, to swear that they would act in accord with this word. And they swore it.	5 Então Esdras levantou-se; fez com que os chefes dos sacerdotes, dos levitas, e de todo o Israel jurassem que agiriam como acabava de ser dito; e eles juraram.
6 And Ezra rose up before the house of God, and he went away to the chamber of Jehohanan, the son of Eliashib, and he entered into it. He did not eat bread, and he did not drink water. For he was mourning the transgression of those who had arrived from the captivity.	6 Depois, deixando a casa de Deus, foi ao quarto de Joanã, filho de Eliasib. Tendo entrado ali, permaneceu sem comer nem beber, porque chorava o pecado dos filhos do cativeiro.
7 And a voice was sent into Judah and Jerusalem, to all the sons of the transmigration, so that they would gather together in Jerusalem.	7 Publicou-se então em Judá e Jerusalém que todos os filhos do cativeiro viessem reunir-se em Jerusalém.
8 And all those who would not arrive within three days, in accord with the counsel of the leaders and the elders, would have all his substance taken away, and he would be cast out of the assembly of the transmigration.	8 Quem não comparecesse dentro de três dias, conforme as ordens dos anciãos e dos chefes, veria confiscados os seus bens, e seria excluído da assembléia dos filhos do cativeiro.
9 And so, all the men of Judah and of Benjamin convened in Jerusalem within three days. This was in 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 the sin and the rain.	9 Todos os homens de Judá e de Benjamim reuniram-se em Jerusalém nos três dias; era o vigésimo dia do nono mês. Todo o povo que se encontrava na praça do templo de Deus tremia, não só {pela gravidade} da circunstância, mas também porque estava chovendo.
10 And Ezra, the priest, rose up, and he said to them: “You have transgressed, and you have taken foreign wives, so that you added to the offenses of Israel.	10 Esdras, o sacerdote, levantou-se e disse-lhes: Vós pecastes tomando mulheres estrangeiras, agravando assim a falta de Israel.
11 And now, make confession to the Lord, the God of your fathers, and do what pleases him, and separate yourselves from the peoples of the land, and from your foreign wives.”	11 Agora, compenetrai-vos de vossa falta diante do Senhor, o Deus de nossos pais, e fazei a sua vontade; separai-vos dos povos desta terra e das mulheres estrangeiras.
12 And the entire multitude responded, and they said with a great voice: “In accord with your word to us, so let be it done.	12 Toda a assembléia respondeu em alta voz: Sim, devemos proceder como disseste.
13 Yet truly, since the people are many, and it is the time of rain, and we cannot endure standing outside, and this is not a task for one or two days, (for certainly we have sinned greatly in this matter,)	13 Mas o povo é numeroso, e é a estação das chuvas; não é, pois, possível ficar-se fora; ademais, isso não é trabalho de um ou dois dias, porque cometemos uma grande transgressão nesse assunto.
14 let leaders be appointed among the entire multitude. And in all our cities, let those who have taken foreign wives arrive at appointed times, and with them the elders from city to city, and the judges, until the wrath of our God has been averted from us over this sin.”	14 Que nossos chefes fiquem aqui para representar a assembléia inteira; e todos aqueles que, em nossas cidades, receberam em suas casas uma ou mais mulheres estrangeiras, se apresentem nas datas fixadas, com os anciãos de cada cidade e os seus juízes, até que consigamos apartar de nós o fogo da cólera de nosso Deus por causa dessa questão.
15 And so Jonathan, the son of Asahel, and Jahzeiah, the son of Tikvah, were appointed over this, and the Levites Meshullam and Shabbethai assisted them.	15 Só Jonatã, filho de Azael, e Jaasiaz, filho de Técua, se apresentaram para contradizer essa ordem, apoiados por Mosolão e Sebetai, o levita.
16 And the sons of the transmigration did so. And Ezra, the priest, and the men who were the leaders of the families in the houses of their fathers, and all according to their names, went and sat down, on the first day of the tenth month, so that they might examine the matter.	16 Os filhos do cativeiro, porém, conformaram-se. Esdras, o sacerdote, e alguns homens, chefes de família segundo suas casas, todos designados por seus nomes, puseram-se de parte e, sentando-se, começaram a examinar a questão no primeiro dia do décimo mês.
17 And they made an end with all the men who had taken foreign wives, by the first day of the first month.	17 No primeiro dia do primeiro mês resolveram a questão dos homens que tinham desposado mulheres estrangeiras.
18 And there were found among the sons of the priests some who had taken foreign wives: From the sons of Jeshua, the son of Jozadak, and his brothers, Maaseiah, and Eliezer, and Jarib, and Gedaliah.	18 Entre os filhos dos sacerdotes, encontravam-se alguns que haviam desposado mulheres estrangeiras, a saber: filhos de Josué, filhos de Josedec, e de seus irmãos entre os quais Maasias, Eliezer, Jarib e Godolias.
19 And they swore with their hands that they would cast aside their wives, and that they would offer for their offense a ram from among the sheep.	19 Estes se comprometeram a repudiar suas mulheres e oferecer um carneiro pela expiação de sua falta.
