Ezra

Chapter 9

1 Now when these things428 were done,3615 the princes8269 came5066 to413 me, saying,559 The people5971 of Israel,3478 and the priests,3548 and the Levites,3881 have not3808 separated themselves914 from the people4480 5971 of the lands,776 doing according to their abominations,8441 even of the Canaanites,3669 the Hittites,2850 the Perizzites,6522 the Jebusites,2983 the Ammonites,5984 the Moabites,4125 the Egyptians,4713 and the Amorites.567

2 For3588 they have taken5375 of their daughters4480 1323 for themselves, and for their sons:1121 so that the holy6944 seed2233 have mingled themselves6148 with the people5971 of those lands:776 yea, the hand3027 of the princes8269 and rulers5461 hath been1961 chief7223 in this2088 trespass.4604

3 And when I heard8085 853 this2088 thing,1697 I rent7167 853 my garment899 and my mantle,4598 and plucked off4803 the hair4480 8181 of my head7218 and of my beard,2206 and sat down3427 astonished.8074

4 Then were assembled622 unto413 me every one3605 that trembled2730 at the words1697 of the God430 of Israel,3478 because5921 of the transgression4604 of those that had been carried away;1473 and I589 sat3427 astonished8074 until5704 the evening6153 sacrifice.4503

5 And at the evening6153 sacrifice4503 I arose up6965 from my heaviness;4480 8589 and having rent7167 my garment899 and my mantle,4598 I fell3766 upon5921 my knees,1290 and spread out6566 my hands3709 unto413 the LORD3068 my God,430

6 And said,559 O my God,430 I am ashamed954 and blush3637 to lift up7311 my face6440 to413 thee, my God:430 for3588 our iniquities5771 are increased7235 over4605 our head,7218 and our trespass819 is grown up1431 unto5704 the heavens.8064

7 Since the days4480 3117 of our fathers1 have we587 been in a great1419 trespass819 unto5704 this2088 day;3117 and for our iniquities5771 have we,587 our kings,4428 and our priests,3548 been delivered5414 into the hand3027 of the kings4428 of the lands,776 to the sword,2719 to captivity,7628 and to a spoil,961 and to confusion1322 of face,6440 as it is this2088 day.3117

8 And now6258 for a little4592 space7281 grace8467 hath been1961 showed from4480 854 the LORD3068 our God,430 to leave7604 us a remnant to escape,6413 and to give5414 us a nail3489 in his holy6944 place,4725 that our God430 may lighten215 our eyes,5869 and give5414 us a little4592 reviving4241 in our bondage.5659

9 For3588 we587 were bondmen;5650 yet our God430 hath not3808 forsaken5800 us in our bondage,5659 but hath extended5186 mercy2617 unto5921 us in the sight6440 of the kings4428 of Persia,6539 to give5414 us a reviving,4241 to set up7311 853 the house1004 of our God,430 and to repair5975 853 the desolations2723 thereof, and to give5414 us a wall1447 in Judah3063 and in Jerusalem.3389

10 And now,6258 O our God,430 what4100 shall we say559 after310 this?2063 for3588 we have forsaken5800 thy commandments,4687

11 Which834 thou hast commanded6680 by3027 thy servants5650 the prophets,5030 saying,559 The land,776 unto which834 ye859 go935 to possess3423 it, is an unclean5079 land776 with the filthiness5079 of the people5971 of the lands,776 with their abominations,8441 which834 have filled4390 it from one end4480 6310 to413 another6310 with their uncleanness.2932

12 Now6258 therefore give5414 not408 your daughters1323 unto their sons,1121 neither408 take5375 their daughters1323 unto your sons,1121 nor3808 seek1875 their peace7965 or their wealth2896 forever:5704 5769 that4616 ye may be strong,2388 and eat398 853 the good2898 of the land,776 and leave it for an inheritance3423 to your children1121 forever.5704 5769

13 And after310 all3605 that is come935 upon5921 us for our evil7451 deeds,4639 and for our great1419 trespass,819 seeing3588 that thou859 our God430 hast punished2820 us less4295 than our iniquities4480 5771 deserve, and hast given5414 us such deliverance6413 as this;2063

14 Should we again7725 break6565 thy commandments,4687 and join in affinity2859 with the people5971 of these428 abominations?8441 wouldest not3808 thou be angry599 with us till5704 thou hadst consumed3615 us, so that there should be no369 remnant7611 nor escaping?6413

15 O LORD3068 God430 of Israel,3478 thou859 art righteous:6662 for3588 we remain7604 yet escaped,6413 as it is this2063 day:3117 behold,2009 we are before6440 thee in our trespasses:819 for3588 we cannot369 stand5975 before6440 thee because5921 of this.2088

第9章

1 嗣後民就我曰、斯土之民、迦南人、赫人、比哩洗人、耶布士人、亞捫人、摩押人、埃及人、亞摩哩人、俱作不善、以色列族衆、祭司、及利未人與居與處、則清濁不判。

2 成聖之民、與斯土之人雜處、娶其女爲妻爲媳、民長牧伯、先犯此罪。

3 我聞之不禁裂裳衣、拔鬚髮、愕然而坐、

4 凡凜遵以色列族上帝之道者、聞被擄而歸之衆、干犯罪戾、咸來見我、我愕然而坐、越至薄暮、獻祭之時、憂心悄悄、裂衣曲跽、向天舉手、禱我上帝耶和華、

5 併於上節

6 曰、我上帝歟、子覺赧然、不敢仰視、蓋我衆罪惡滔天、幾至滅頂。

7 自列祖之時、迄於今日、世濟其惡、因此我與我王、祭司、敗於列國之王、爲其殺戮、劫掠攘奪、蒙恥忍辱、今日之事爲證。

8 今我上帝耶和華暫施其恩、拯我遺民、使恒居聖所、錫我寵光、不爲人奴、保我生命。

9 昔我爲人服役、蒙上帝不棄、使巴西王矜憫我、賜復振興、能建上帝殿、見其傾圯、重加修茸、築垣於猶大及耶路撒冷。

10 我上帝歟、方命之罪、我不敢諉、

11 昔爾命臣諸先知告我云、爾所欲據之地甚不潔、因斯民作不善、四境皆然、以此污衊。

12 爾女不得適其子、爾子不得娶其女、勿與之和好、勿助其獲利、則可強盛、享其土產、世爲恒業。

13 我之上帝歟、我罪大惡重、故罹災害、爾雖加刑、猶不及其罪、反援手以拯我、

14 今我若違上帝命、與斯土之民通嫁娶、行不善、必干爾震怒、翦滅我儕、靡有孑遺。

15 以色列族之上帝耶和華歟、爾無不義、我衆有過、不敢推諉、然我儕得救、至今生存、可以爲證。
