Ezra / 以 斯 拉 記
1:1 波斯王古列元年、耶和華為要應驗藉耶利米口所說的話、就激動波斯王古列的心、使他下詔通告全國說、
1:1 Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, that the word of the LORD by the mouth of Jeremiah might be fulfilled, the LORD stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and put it also in writing, saying,
1:2 波斯王古列如此說、耶和華天上的 神、已將天下萬國賜給我．又囑咐我在猶大的耶路撒冷、為他建造殿宇。
1:2 Thus says Cyrus king of Persia, The LORD God of heaven has given me all the kingdoms of the earth; and he has charged me to build him an house at Jerusalem, which is in Judah.
1:3 在你們中間凡作他子民的、可以上猶大的耶路撒冷、在耶路撒冷重建耶和華以色列 神的殿．（只有他是 神）願 神與這人同在。
1:3 Who is there among you of all his people? his God be with him, and let him go up to Jerusalem, which is in Judah, and build the house of the LORD God of Israel, (he is the God,) which is in Jerusalem.
1:4 凡剩下的人、無論寄居何處、那地的人要用金銀財物牲畜幫助他．另外也要為耶路撒冷 神的殿、甘心獻上禮物。
1:4 And whosoever remains in any place where he sojourns, let the men of his place help him with silver, and with gold, and with goods, and with beasts, beside the freewill offering for the house of God that is in Jerusalem.
1:5 於是猶大和便雅憫的族長、祭司利未人、就是一切被 神激動他心的人、都起來要上耶路撒冷去建造耶和華的殿。
1:5 Then rose up the chief of the fathers of Judah and Benjamin, and the priests, and the Levites, with all them whose spirit God had raised, to go up to build the house of the LORD which is in Jerusalem.
1:6 他們四圍的人就拿銀器、金子、財物、牲畜、珍寶幫助他們．〔原文作堅固他們的手〕另外還有甘心獻的禮物。
1:6 And all they that were about them strengthened their hands with vessels of silver, with gold, with goods, and with beasts, and with precious things, beside all that was willingly offered.
1:7 古列王也將耶和華殿的器皿拿出來．這器皿是尼布甲尼撒從耶路撒冷掠來、放在自己神之廟中的。
1:7 Also Cyrus the king brought forth the vessels of the house of the LORD, which Nebuchadnezzar had brought forth out of Jerusalem, and had put them in the house of his gods;
1:8 波斯王古列派庫官米提利達、將這器皿拿出來、按數交給猶大的首領設巴薩。
1:8 Even those did Cyrus king of Persia bring forth by the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, and numbered them unto Sheshbazzar, the prince of Judah.
1:9 器皿的數目記在下面．金盤三十個、銀盤一千個、刀二十九把、
1:9 And this is the number of them: thirty chargers of gold, a thousand chargers of silver, nine and twenty knives,
1:10 金碗三十個、銀碗之次的四百一十個、別樣的器皿一千件．
1:10 Thirty basons of gold, silver basons of a second sort four hundred and ten, and other vessels a thousand.
1:11 金銀器皿、共有五千四百件．被擄的人從巴比倫上耶路撒冷的時候、設巴薩將這一切都帶上來。
1:11 All the vessels of gold and of silver were five thousand and four hundred. All these did Sheshbazzar bring up with them of the captivity that were brought up from Babylon unto Jerusalem.
2:1 巴比倫王尼布甲尼撒、從前擄到巴比倫之猶大省的人、現在他們的子孫從被擄到之地、回耶路撒冷和猶大、各歸本城。
2:1 Now these are the children of the province that went up out of the captivity, of those which had been carried away, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away unto Babylon, and came again unto Jerusalem and Judah, every one unto his city;

2:62 這三家的人、在族譜之中尋查自己的譜系、卻尋不著、因此算為不潔、不准供祭司的職任．
2:62 These sought their register among those that were reckoned by genealogy, but they were not found: therefore were they, as polluted, put from the priesthood.
2:63 省長對他們說、不可喫至聖的物、直到有用烏陵和土明決疑的祭司興起來。

2:68 And some of the chief of the fathers, when they came to the house of the LORD which is at Jerusalem, offered freely for the house of God to set it up in his place:
2:69 他們量力捐入工程庫的金子、六萬一千達利克．銀子、五千彌拿．並祭司的禮服一百件。
2:69 They gave after their ability unto the treasure of the work threescore and one thousand drams of gold, and five thousand pound of silver, and one hundred priests' garments.
2:70 於是祭司利未人、民中的一些人、歌唱的、守門的、尼提寧、並以色列眾人、各住在自己的城裡。
2:70 So the priests, and the Levites, and some of the people, and the singers, and the porters, and the Nethinims, dwelt in their cities, and all Israel in their cities.
3:1 到了七月、以色列人住在各城、那時他們如同一人、聚集在耶路撒冷。
3:1 And when the seventh month was come, and the children of Israel were in the cities, the people gathered themselves together as one man to Jerusalem.
3:2 約薩達的兒子耶書亞、和他的弟兄眾祭司、並撒拉鐵的兒子所羅巴伯、與他的弟兄、都起來建築以色列 神的壇、要照神人摩西律法書上所寫的、在壇上獻燔祭。
3:2 Then stood up Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and his brethren the priests, and Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and his brethren, and built the altar of the God of Israel, to offer burnt offerings thereon, as it is written in the law of Moses the man of God.
3:3 他們在原有的根基上築壇、因懼怕鄰國的民．又在其上向耶和華早晚獻燔祭。
3:3 And they set the altar upon his bases; for fear was upon them because of the people of those countries: and they offered burnt offerings thereon unto the LORD, even burnt offerings morning and evening.
3:4 又照律法書上所寫的、守住棚節．按數照例、獻每日所當獻的燔祭。
3:4 They kept also the feast of tabernacles, as it is written, and offered the daily burnt offerings by number, according to the custom, as the duty of every day required;
3:5 其後獻常獻的燔祭、並在月朔與耶和華的一切聖節獻祭、又向耶和華獻各人的甘心祭。
3:5 And afterward offered the continual burnt offering, both of the new moons, and of all the set feasts of the LORD that were consecrated, and of every one that willingly offered a freewill offering unto the LORD.
3:6 從七月初一日起、他們就向耶和華獻燔祭．但耶和華殿的根基、尚未立定。
3:6 From the first day of the seventh month began they to offer burnt offerings unto the LORD. But the foundation of the temple of the LORD was not yet laid.
3:7 他們又將銀子給石匠、木匠、把糧食、酒、油、給西頓人、推羅人、使他們將香柏樹從利巴嫩運到海裡、浮海運到約帕、是照波斯王古列所允准的。
3:7 They gave money also unto the stone workers, and to the carpenters; and food, and drink, and oil, unto them of Zidon, and to them of Tyre, to bring cedar trees from Lebanon to the sea of Joppa, according to the grant that they had of Cyrus king of Persia.
3:8 百姓到了耶路撒冷 神殿的地方、第二年二月、撒拉鐵的兒子所羅巴伯、約薩達的兒子耶書亞、和其餘的弟兄、就是祭司、利未人、並一切被擄歸回耶路撒冷的人、都興工建造．又派利未人、從二十歲以外的、督理建造耶和華殿的工作。
3:8 Now in the second year of their coming unto the house of God at Jerusalem, in the second month, began Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and the remnant of their brethren the priests and the Levites, and all they that were come out of the captivity unto Jerusalem; and appointed the Levites, from twenty years old and upward, to set forward the work of the house of the LORD.
3:9 於是猶大〔在二章四十節作何達威雅〕的後裔、就是耶書亞、和他的子孫與弟兄、甲篾和他的子孫、利未人希拿達的子孫與弟兄、都一同起來、督理那在 神殿作工的人。
3:9 Then stood Jeshua with his sons and his brethren, Kadmiel and his sons, the sons of Judah, together, to set forward the workmen in the house of God: the sons of Henadad, with their sons and their brethren the Levites.
3:10 匠人立耶和華殿根基的時候、祭司皆穿禮服吹號、亞薩的子孫利未人敲鈸、照以色列王大衛所定的例、都站著讚美耶和華。
3:10 And when the builders laid the foundation of the temple of the LORD, they set the priests in their apparel with trumpets, and the Levites the sons of Asaph with cymbals, to praise the LORD, after the ordinance of David king of Israel.
3:11 他們彼此唱和、讚美稱謝耶和華、說、他本為善、他向以色列人永發慈愛．他們讚美耶和華的時候、眾民大聲呼喊、因耶和華殿的根基已經立定．
3:11 And they sang together by course in praising and giving thanks unto the LORD; because he is good, for his mercy endures for ever toward Israel. And all the people shouted with a great shout, when they praised the LORD, because the foundation of the house of the LORD was laid.
3:12 然而有許多祭司、利未人、族長、就是見過舊殿的老年人、現在親眼看見立這殿的根基、便大聲哭號．也有許多人大聲歡呼．
3:12 But many of the priests and Levites and chief of the fathers, who were ancient men, that had seen the first house, when the foundation of this house was laid before their eyes, wept with a loud voice; and many shouted aloud for joy:
3:13 甚至百姓不能分辨歡呼的聲音、和哭號的聲音、因為眾人大聲呼喊、聲音聽到遠處。
3:13 So that the people could not discern the noise of the shout of joy from the noise of the weeping of the people: for the people shouted with a loud shout, and the noise was heard far off.
4:1 猶大和便雅憫的敵人聽說、被擄歸回的人為耶和華以色列的 神建造殿宇、
4:1 Now when the adversaries of Judah and Benjamin heard that the children of the captivity built the temple unto the LORD God of Israel;
4:2 就去見所羅巴伯、和以色列的族長、對他們說、請容我們與你們一同建造、因為我們尋求你們的 神、與你們一樣．自從亞述王以撒哈頓帶我們上這地以來、我們常祭祀 神。
4:2 Then they came to Zerubbabel, and to the chief of the fathers, and said unto them, Let us build with you: for we seek your God, as all of you do; and we do sacrifice unto him since the days of Esarhaddon king of Assur, which brought us up here.
4:3 但所羅巴伯、耶書亞、和其餘以色列的族長、對他們說、我們建造 神的殿與你們無干、我們自己為耶和華以色列的 神協力建造、是照波斯王古列所吩咐的。
4:3 But Zerubbabel, and Jeshua, and the rest of the chief of the fathers of Israel, said unto them, All of you have nothing to do with us to build an house unto our God; but we ourselves together will build unto the LORD God of Israel, as king Cyrus the king of Persia has commanded us.
4:4 那地的民、就在猶大人建造的時候、使他們的手發軟、擾亂他們。
4:4 Then the people of the land weakened the hands of the people of Judah, and troubled them in building,
4:5 從波斯王古列年間、直到波斯王大利烏登基的時候、賄買謀士、要敗壞他們的謀算。
4:5 And hired counsellors against them, to frustrate their purpose, all the days of Cyrus king of Persia, even until the reign of Darius king of Persia.
4:6 在亞哈隨魯纔登基的時候、上本控告猶大和耶路撒冷的居民。
4:6 And in the reign of Ahasuerus, in the beginning of his reign, wrote they unto him an accusation against the inhabitants of Judah and Jerusalem.
4:7 亞達薛西年間、比施蘭、米特利達、他別、和他們的同黨、上本奏告波斯王亞達薛西．本章是用亞蘭文字、亞蘭方言。
4:7 And in the days of Artaxerxes wrote Bishlam, Mithredath, Tabeel, and the rest of their companions, unto Artaxerxes king of Persia; and the writing of the letter was written in the Syrian tongue, and interpreted in the Syrian tongue.
4:8 省長利宏、書記伸帥、要控告耶路撒冷人、也上本奏告亞達薛西王。
4:8 Rehum the chancellor and Shimshai the scribe wrote a letter against Jerusalem to Artaxerxes the king in this sort:
4:9 省長利宏、書記伸帥、和同黨的底拿人、亞法薩提迦人、他毗拉人、亞法撒人、亞基衛人、巴比倫人、書珊迦人、底亥人、以攔人、
4:9 Then wrote Rehum the chancellor, and Shimshai the scribe, and the rest of their companions; the Dinaites, the Apharsathchites, the Tarpelites, the Apharsites, the Archevites, the Babylonians, the Susanchites, the Dehavites, and the Elamites,
4:10 和尊大的亞斯那巴所遷移、安置在撒瑪利亞城、並大河西一帶地方的人等．
4:10 And the rest of the nations whom the great and noble Asnapper brought over, and set in the cities of Samaria, and the rest that are on this side the river, and at such a time.
4:11 上奏亞達薛西王說、河西的臣民云云。
4:11 This is the copy of the letter that they sent unto him, even unto Artaxerxes the king; Your servants the men on this side the river, and at such a time.
4:12 王該知道、從王那裡上到我們這裡的猶大人、已經到耶路撒冷重建這反叛惡劣的城、築立根基、建造城牆。
4:12 Be it known unto the king, that the Jews which came up from you to us are come unto Jerusalem, building the rebellious and the bad city, and have set up the walls thereof, and joined the foundations.
4:13 如今王該知道、他們若建造這城、城牆完畢、就不再與王進貢、交課、納稅、終久王必受虧損．
4:13 Be it known now unto the king, that, if this city be built, and the walls set up again, then will they not pay toll, tribute, and custom, and so you shall spoil the revenue of the kings.
4:14 我們既食御鹽、不忍見王喫虧、因此奏告於王、
4:14 Now because we have maintenance from the king's palace, and it was not meet for us to see the king's dishonour, therefore have we sent and certified the king;
4:15 請王考察先王的實錄、必在其上查知這城是反叛的城、與列王和各省有害、自古以來、其中常有悖逆的事、因此這城曾被拆毀。
4:15 That search may be made in the book of the records of your fathers: so shall you find in the book of the records, and know that this city is a rebellious city, and hurtful unto kings and provinces, and that they have moved sedition within the same of old time: for which cause was this city destroyed.
4:16 我們謹奏王知、這城若再建造、城牆完畢、河西之地王就無分了。
4:16 We certify the king that, if this city be built again, and the walls thereof set up, by this means you shall have no portion on this side the river.
4:17 那時王諭覆省長利宏、書記伸帥、和他們的同黨、就是住撒瑪利亞、並河西一帶地方的人、說、願你們平安云云。
4:17 Then sent the king an answer unto Rehum the chancellor, and to Shimshai the scribe, and to the rest of their companions that dwell in Samaria, and unto the rest beyond the river, Peace, and at such a time.
4:18 你們所上的本、已經明讀在我面前。
4:18 The letter which all of you sent unto us has been plainly read before me.
4:19 我已命人考查、得知此城古來果然背叛列王、其中常有反叛悖逆的事。
4:19 And I commanded, and search has been made, and it is found that this city of old time has made insurrection against kings, and that rebellion and sedition have been made therein.
4:20 從前耶路撒冷也有大君王統管河西全地、人就給他們進貢、交課、納稅。
4:20 There have been mighty kings also over Jerusalem, which have ruled over all countries beyond the river; and toll, tribute, and custom, was paid unto them.
4:21 現在你們要出告示命這些人停工、使這城不得建造、等我降旨．
4:21 Give all of you now commandment to cause these men to cease, and that this city be not built, until another commandment shall be given from me.
4:22 你們當謹慎、不可遲延、為何容害加重、使王受虧損呢。
4:22 Take heed now that all of you fail not to do this: why should damage grow to the hurt of the kings?
4:23 亞達薛西王的上諭讀在利宏、和書記伸帥、並他們的同黨面前、他們就急忙往耶路撒冷去見猶大人、用勢力強迫他們停工。
4:23 Now when the copy of king Artaxerxes' letter was read before Rehum, and Shimshai the scribe, and their companions, they went up in haste to Jerusalem unto the Jews, and made them to cease by force and power.
4:24 於是在耶路撒冷 神殿的工程就停止了、直停到波斯王大利烏第二年。
4:24 Then ceased the work of the house of God which is at Jerusalem. So it ceased unto the second year of the reign of Darius king of Persia.
5:1 那時先知哈該、和易多的孫子撒迦利亞、奉以色列 神的名、向猶大和耶路撒冷的猶大人、說勸勉的話。
5:1 Then the prophets, Haggai the prophet, and Zechariah the son of Iddo, prophesied unto the Jews that were in Judah and Jerusalem in the name of the God of Israel, even unto them.
5:2 於是撒拉鐵的兒子所羅巴伯、和約薩達的兒子耶書亞、都起來動手建造耶路撒冷 神的殿、有 神的先知在那裡幫助他們。
5:2 Then rose up Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and began to build the house of God which is at Jerusalem: and with them were the prophets of God helping them.
5:3 當時河西的總督達乃、和示他波斯乃、並他們的同黨、來問說、誰降旨讓你們建造這殿、修成這牆呢。
5:3 At the same time came to them Tatnai, governor on this side the river, and Shetharboznai and their companions, and said thus unto them, Who has commanded you to build this house, and to make up this wall?
5:4 我們便告訴他們建造這殿的人叫甚麼名字。
5:4 Then said we unto them after this manner, What are the names of the men that make this building?
5:5 神的眼目看顧猶大的長老、以致總督等、沒有叫他們停工、直到這事奏告大利烏、得著他的回諭。
5:5 But the eye of their God was upon the elders of the Jews, that they could not cause them to cease, till the matter came to Darius: and then they returned answer by letter concerning this matter.
5:6 河西的總督達乃、和示他波斯乃、並他們的同黨、就是住河西的亞法薩迦人、上本奏告大利烏王．
5:6 The copy of the letter that Tatnai, governor on this side the river, and Shetharboznai and his companions the Apharsachites, which were on this side the river, sent unto Darius the king:
5:7 本上寫著說、願大利烏王諸事平安．
5:7 They sent a letter unto him, wherein was written thus; Unto Darius the king, all peace.
5:8 王該知道、我們往猶大省去、到了至大 神的殿、這殿是用大石建造的、梁木插入牆內、工作甚速、他們手下亨通．
5:8 Be it known unto the king, that we went into the province of Judea, to the house of the great God, which is built with great stones, and timber is laid in the walls, and this work goes fast on, and prospers in their hands.
5:9 我們就問那些長老說、誰降旨讓你們建造這殿、修成這牆呢。
5:9 Then asked we those elders, and said unto them thus, Who commanded you to build this house, and to make up these walls?
5:10 又問他們的名字、要記錄他們首領的名字、奏告於王。
5:10 We asked their names also, to certify you, that we might write the names of the men that were the chief of them.
5:11 他們回答說、我們是天地之 神的僕人、重建前多年所建造的殿、就是以色列的一位大君王建造修成的。
5:11 And thus they returned us answer, saying, We are the servants of the God of heaven and earth, and build the house that was built these many years ago, which a great king of Israel built and set up.
5:12 只因我們列祖惹天上的 神發怒、 神把他們交在迦勒底人巴比倫王尼布甲尼撒的手中、他就拆毀這殿、又將百姓擄到巴比倫。
5:12 But after that our fathers had provoked the God of heaven unto wrath, he gave them into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, the Chaldean, who destroyed this house, and carried the people away into Babylon.
5:13 然而巴比倫王古列元年、他降旨允准建造 神的這殿。
5:13 But in the first year of Cyrus the king of Babylon the same king Cyrus made a decree to build this house of God.
5:14 神殿中的金銀、器皿、就是尼布甲尼撒從耶路撒冷的殿中掠去帶到巴比倫廟裡的、古列王從巴比倫廟裡取出來、交給派為省長的、名叫設巴薩．
5:14 And the vessels also of gold and silver of the house of God, which Nebuchadnezzar took out of the temple that was in Jerusalem, and brought them into the temple of Babylon, those did Cyrus the king take out of the temple of Babylon, and they were delivered unto one, whose name was Sheshbazzar, whom he had made governor;
5:15 對他說、可以將這些器皿帶去、放在耶路撒冷的殿中、在原處建造 神的殿。
5:15 And said unto him, Take these vessels, go, carry them into the temple that is in Jerusalem, and let the house of God be built in his place.
5:16 於是這設巴薩來建立耶路撒冷 神殿的根基．這殿、從那時直到如今、尚未造成。
5:16 Then came the same Sheshbazzar, and laid the foundation of the house of God which is in Jerusalem: and since that time even until now has it been in building, and yet it is not finished.
5:17 現在王若以為美、請察巴比倫王的府庫、看古列王降旨、允准在耶路撒冷建造 神的殿沒有．王的心意如何、請降旨曉諭我們。
5:17 Now therefore, if it seem good to the king, let there be search made in the king's treasure house, which is there at Babylon, whether it be so, that a decree was made of Cyrus the king to build this house of God at Jerusalem, and let the king send his pleasure to us concerning this matter.
6:1 於是大利烏王降旨、要尋察典籍庫內、就是在巴比倫藏寶物之處．
6:1 Then Darius the king made a decree, and search was made in the house of the rolls, where the treasures were laid up in Babylon.
6:2 在瑪代省、亞馬他城的宮內、尋得一卷、其中記著說、
6:2 And there was found at Achmetha, in the palace that is in the province of the Medes, a roll, and therein was a record thus written:
6:3 古列王元年、他降旨論到耶路撒冷 神的殿、要建造這殿為獻祭之處、堅立殿的根基、殿高六十肘、寬六十肘．
6:3 In the first year of Cyrus the king the same Cyrus the king made a decree concerning the house of God at Jerusalem, Let the house be built, the place where they offered sacrifices, and let the foundations thereof be strongly laid; the height thereof threescore cubits, and the breadth thereof threescore cubits;
6:4 用三層大石頭、一層新木頭、經費要出於王庫．
6:4 With three rows of great stones, and a row of new timber: and let the expenses be given out of the king's house:
6:5 並且 神殿的金銀器皿、就是尼布甲尼撒從耶路撒冷的殿中掠到巴比倫的、要歸還帶到耶路撒冷的殿中、各按原處放在 神的殿裡。
6:5 And also let the golden and silver vessels of the house of God, which Nebuchadnezzar took forth out of the temple which is at Jerusalem, and brought unto Babylon, be restored, and brought again unto the temple which is at Jerusalem, every one to his place, and place them in the house of God.
6:6 現在河西的總督達乃、和示他波斯乃、並你們的同黨、就是住河西的亞法薩迦人、你們當遠離他們。
6:6 Now therefore, Tatnai, governor beyond the river, Shetharboznai, and your companions the Apharsachites, which are beyond the river, be all of you far from thence:
6:7 不要攔阻 神殿的工作、任憑猶大人的省長、和猶大人的長老在原處建造 神的這殿。
6:7 Let the work of this house of God alone; let the governor of the Jews and the elders of the Jews build this house of God in his place.
6:8 我又降旨、吩咐你們向猶大人的長老為建造 神的殿、當怎樣行、就是從河西的款項中、急速撥取貢銀作他們的經費、免得耽誤工作。
6:8 Moreover I make a decree what all of you shall do to the elders of these Jews for the building of this house of God: that of the king's goods, even of the tribute beyond the river, forthwith expenses be given unto these men, that they be not hindered.
6:9 他們與天上的 神獻燔祭所需用的公牛犢、公綿羊、綿羊羔、並所用的麥子、鹽、酒、油、都要照耶路撒冷祭司的話、每日供給他們、不得有誤．
6:9 And that which they have need of, both young bullocks, and rams, and lambs, for the burnt offerings of the God of heaven, wheat, salt, wine, and oil, according to the appointment of the priests which are at Jerusalem, let it be given them day by day without fail:
6:10 好叫他們獻馨香的祭給天上的 神、又為王、和王眾子的壽命祈禱。
6:10 That they may offer sacrifices of sweet savours unto the God of heaven, and pray for the life of the king, and of his sons.
6:11 我再降旨、無論誰更改這命令、必從他房屋中拆出一根梁來、把他舉起、懸在其上．又使他的房屋成為糞堆。
6:11 Also I have made a decree, that whosoever shall alter this word, let timber be pulled down from his house, and being set up, let him be hanged thereon; and let his house be made a dunghill for this.
6:12 若有王和民伸手更改這命令、拆毀這殿、願那使耶路撒冷的殿作為他名居所的 神、將他們滅絕．我大利烏降這旨意、當速速遵行。
6:12 And the God that has caused his name to dwell there destroy all kings and people, that shall put to their hand to alter and to destroy this house of God which is at Jerusalem. I Darius have made a decree; let it be done with speed.
6:13 於是河西總督達乃、和示他波斯乃、並他們的同黨、因大利烏王所發的命令、就急速遵行。
6:13 Then Tatnai, governor on this side the river, Shetharboznai, and their companions, according to that which Darius the king had sent, so they did speedily.
6:14 猶大長老因先知哈該、和易多的孫子撒迦利亞所說勸勉的話、就建造這殿、凡事亨通．他們遵著以色列 神的命令、和波斯王古列、大利烏、亞達薛西的旨意、建造完畢。
6:14 And the elders of the Jews built, and they prospered through the prophesying of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the son of Iddo. And they built, and finished it, according to the commandment of the God of Israel, and according to the commandment of Cyrus, and Darius, and Artaxerxes king of Persia.
6:15 大利烏王第六年、亞達月初三日、這殿修成了。
6:15 And this house was finished on the third day of the month Adar, which was in the sixth year of the reign of Darius the king.
6:16 以色列的祭司、和利未人、並其餘被擄歸回的人、都歡歡喜喜地行奉獻 神殿的禮。
6:16 And the children of Israel, the priests, and the Levites, and the rest of the children of the captivity, kept the dedication of this house of God with joy.
6:17 行奉獻 神殿的禮、就獻公牛一百隻、公綿羊二百隻、綿羊羔四百隻．又照以色列支派的數目、獻公山羊十二隻、為以色列眾人作贖罪祭。
6:17 And offered at the dedication of this house of God an hundred bullocks, two hundred rams, four hundred lambs; and for a sin offering for all Israel, twelve he goats, according to the number of the tribes of Israel.
6:18 且派祭司、和利未人、按著班次在耶路撒冷事奉 神、是照摩西律法書上所寫的。
6:18 And they set the priests in their divisions, and the Levites in their courses, for the service of God, which is at Jerusalem; as it is written in the book of Moses.
6:19 正月十四日、被擄歸回的人守逾越節。
6:19 And the children of the captivity kept the passover upon the fourteenth day of the first month.
6:20 原來祭司和利未人、一同自潔、無一人不潔淨．利未人為被擄歸回的眾人和他們的弟兄眾祭司、並為自己宰逾越節的羊羔。
6:20 For the priests and the Levites were purified together, all of them were pure, and killed the passover for all the children of the captivity, and for their brethren the priests, and for themselves.
6:21 從擄到之地歸回的以色列人、和一切除掉所染外邦人污穢歸附他們、要尋求耶和華以色列 神的人、都喫這羊羔。
6:21 And the children of Israel, which were come again out of captivity, and all such as had separated themselves unto them from the filthiness of the heathen of the land, to seek the LORD God of Israel, did eat,
6:22 歡歡喜喜地守除酵節七日、因為耶和華使他們歡喜、又使亞述王的心轉向他們、堅固他們的手、作以色列 神殿的工程。
6:22 And kept the feast of unleavened bread seven days with joy: for the LORD had made them joyful, and turned the heart of the king of Assyria unto them, to strengthen their hands in the work of the house of God, the God of Israel.
7:1 這事以後、波斯王亞達薛西年間、有個以斯拉、他是西萊雅的兒子、西萊雅是亞撒利雅的兒子、亞撒利雅是希勒家的兒子、
7:1 Now after these things, in the reign of Artaxerxes king of Persia, Ezra the son of Seraiah, the son of Azariah, the son of Hilkiah,
7:2 希勒家是沙龍的兒子、沙龍是撒督的兒子、撒督是亞希突的兒子、
7:2 The son of Shallum, the son of Zadok, the son of Ahitub,
7:3 亞希突是亞瑪利雅的兒子、亞瑪利雅是亞撒利雅的兒子、亞撒利雅是米拉約的兒子、
7:3 The son of Amariah, the son of Azariah, the son of Meraioth,
7:4 米拉約是西拉希雅的兒子、西拉希雅是烏西的兒子、烏西是布基的兒子、
7:4 The son of Zerahiah, the son of Uzzi, the son of Bukki,
7:5 布基是亞比書的兒子、亞比書是非尼哈的兒子、非尼哈是以利亞撒的兒子、以利亞撒是大祭司亞倫的兒子。
7:5 The son of Abishua, the son of Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the chief priest:
7:6 這以斯拉從巴比倫上來、他是敏捷的文士、通達耶和華以色列 神所賜摩西的律法書．王允准他一切所求的、是因耶和華他 神的手幫助他。
7:6 This Ezra went up from Babylon; and he was a ready scribe in the law of Moses, which the LORD God of Israel had given: and the king granted him all his request, according to the hand of the LORD his God upon him.
7:7 亞達薛西王第七年、以色列人、祭司、利未人、歌唱的、守門的、尼提寧、有上耶路撒冷的．
7:7 And there went up some of the children of Israel, and of the priests, and the Levites, and the singers, and the porters, and the Nethinims, unto Jerusalem, in the seventh year of Artaxerxes the king.
7:8 王第七年五月、以斯拉到了耶路撒冷．
7:8 And he came to Jerusalem in the fifth month, which was in the seventh year of the king.
7:9 正月初一日、他從巴比倫起程．因他 神施恩的手幫助他、五月初一日就到了耶路撒冷。
7:9 For upon the first day of the first month began he to go up from Babylon, and on the first day of the fifth month came he to Jerusalem, according to the good hand of his God upon him.
7:10 以斯拉定志考究遵行耶和華的律法、又將律例典章教訓以色列人。
7:10 For Ezra had prepared his heart to seek the law of the LORD, and to do it, and to teach in Israel statutes and judgments.
7:11 祭司以斯拉是通達耶和華誡命、和賜以色列之律例的文士．亞達薛西王賜給他諭旨、上面寫著說、
7:11 Now this is the copy of the letter that the king Artaxerxes gave unto Ezra the priest, the scribe, even a scribe of the words of the commandments of the LORD, and of his statutes to Israel.
7:12 諸王之王亞達薛西、達於祭司以斯拉通達天上 神律法大德的文士云云。
7:12 Artaxerxes, king of kings, unto Ezra the priest, a scribe of the law of the God of heaven, perfect peace, and at such a time.
7:13 住在我國中的以色列人、祭司、利未人、凡甘心上耶路撒冷去的、我降旨准他們與你同去。
7:13 I make a decree, that all they of the people of Israel, and of his priests and Levites, in my realm, which are minded of their own freewill to go up to Jerusalem, go with you.
7:14 王與七個謀士既然差你去、照你手中 神的律法書、察問猶大和耶路撒冷的景況．
7:14 Forasmuch as you are sent of the king, and of his seven counsellors, to enquire concerning Judah and Jerusalem, according to the law of your God which is in yours hand;
7:15 又帶金銀、就是王和謀士甘心獻給住耶路撒冷、以色列 神的、
7:15 And to carry the silver and gold, which the king and his counsellors have freely offered unto the God of Israel, whose habitation is in Jerusalem,
7:16 並帶你在巴比倫全省所得的金銀、和百姓、祭司樂意獻給耶路撒冷他們 神殿的禮物。
7:16 And all the silver and gold that you can find in all the province of Babylon, with the freewill offering of the people, and of the priests, offering willingly for the house of their God which is in Jerusalem:
7:17 所以你當用這金銀、急速買公牛、公綿羊、綿羊羔、和同獻的素祭奠祭之物、獻在耶路撒冷你們 神殿的壇上。
7:17 That you may buy speedily with this money bullocks, rams, lambs, with their food offerings and their drink offerings, and offer them upon the altar of the house of your God which is in Jerusalem.
7:18 剩下的金銀、你和你的弟兄看著怎樣好、就怎樣用、總要遵著你們 神的旨意。
7:18 And whatsoever shall seem good to you, and to your brethren, to do with the rest of the silver and the gold, that do after the will of your God.
7:19 所交給你 神殿中使用的器皿、你要交在耶路撒冷 神面前。
7:19 The vessels also that are given you for the service of the house of your God, those deliver you before the God of Jerusalem.
7:20 你 神殿裡、若再有需用的經費、你可以從王的府庫裡支取。
7:20 And whatsoever more shall be necessary for the house of your God, which you shall have occasion to bestow, bestow it out of the king's treasure house.
7:21 我亞達薛西王、又降旨與河西的一切庫官、說、通達天上 神律法的文士祭司以斯拉、無論向你們要甚麼、你們要速速的備辦．
7:21 And I, even I Artaxerxes the king, do make a decree to all the treasurers which are beyond the river, that whatsoever Ezra the priest, the scribe of the law of the God of heaven, shall require of you, it be done speedily,
7:22 就是銀子直到一百他連得、麥子一百柯珥、酒一百罷特、油一百罷特、鹽不計其數、也要給他。
7:22 Unto an hundred talents of silver, and to an hundred measures of wheat, and to an hundred baths of wine, and to an hundred baths of oil, and salt without prescribing how much.
7:23 凡天上之 神所吩咐的、當為天上 神的殿詳細辦理．為何使忿怒臨到王、和王眾子的國呢。
7:23 Whatsoever is commanded by the God of heaven, let it be diligently done for the house of the God of heaven: for why should there be wrath against the realm of the king and his sons?
7:24 我又曉諭你們、至於祭司、利未人、歌唱的、守門的、和尼提寧、並在 神殿當差的人、不可叫他們進貢、交課、納稅。
7:24 Also we certify you, that concerning any of the priests and Levites, singers, porters, Nethinims, or ministers of this house of God, it shall not be lawful to impose toll, tribute, or custom, upon them.
7:25 以斯拉阿、要照著你 神賜你的智慧、將所有明白你 神律法的人立為士師、審判官、治理河西的百姓、使他們教訓一切不明白 神律法的人。
7:25 And you, Ezra, after the wisdom of your God, that is in yours hand, set magistrates and judges, which may judge all the people that are beyond the river, all such as know the laws of your God; and teach all of you them that know them not.
7:26 凡不遵行你 神律法、和王命令的人、就當速速定他的罪、或治死、或充軍、或抄家、或囚禁。
7:26 And whosoever will not do the law of your God, and the law of the king, let judgment be executed speedily upon him, whether it be unto death, or to banishment, or to confiscation of goods, or to imprisonment.
7:27 以斯拉說、耶和華我們列祖的 神是應當稱頌的、因他使王起這心意、修飾耶路撒冷耶和華的殿．
7:27 Blessed be the LORD God of our fathers, which has put such a thing as this in the king's heart, to beautify the house of the LORD which is in Jerusalem:
7:28 又在王和謀士、並大能的軍長面前施恩於我。因耶和華我 神的手幫助我、我就得以堅強、從以色列中招聚首領、與我一同上來。
7:28 And has extended mercy unto me before the king, and his counsellors, and before all the king's mighty princes. And I was strengthened as the hand of the LORD my God was upon me, and I gathered together out of Israel chief men to go up with me.
8:1 當亞達薛西王年間、同我從巴比倫上來的人、他們的族長、和他們的家譜、記在下面．
8:1 These are now the chief of their fathers, and this is the genealogy of them that went up with me from Babylon, in the reign of Artaxerxes the king.

8:14 屬比革瓦伊的子孫有烏太和撒布．同著他們有男丁七十。
8:14 Of the sons also of Bigvai; Uthai, and Zabbud, and with them seventy males.
8:15 我招聚這些人在流入亞哈瓦的河邊、我們在那裡住了三日、我查看百姓和祭司、見沒有利未人在那裡．
8:15 And I gathered them together to the river that runs to Ahava; and there abode we in tents three days: and I viewed the people, and the priests, and found there none of the sons of Levi.
8:16 就召首領以利以謝、亞列、示瑪雅、以利拿單、雅立、以利拿單、拿單、撒迦利亞、米書蘭．又召教習約雅立、和以利拿單。
8:16 Then sent I for Eliezer, for Ariel, for Shemaiah, and for Elnathan, and for Jarib, and for Elnathan, and for Nathan, and for Zechariah, and for Meshullam, chief men; also for Joiarib, and for Elnathan, men of understanding.
8:17 我打發他們往迦西斐雅地方去、見那裡的首領易多、又告訴他們當向易多和他的弟兄尼提寧說甚麼話、叫他們為我們 神的殿帶使用的人來。
8:17 And I sent them with commandment unto Iddo the chief at the place Casiphia, and I told them what they should say unto Iddo, and to his brethren the Nethinims, at the place Casiphia, that they should bring unto us ministers for the house of our God.
8:18 蒙我們 神施恩的手幫助我們、他們在以色列的曾孫、利未的孫子、抹利的後裔中、帶一個通達人來．還有示利比、和他的眾子、與弟兄、共一十八人。
8:18 And by the good hand of our God upon us they brought us a man of understanding, of the sons of Mahli, the son of Levi, the son of Israel; and Sherebiah, with his sons and his brethren, eighteen;
8:19 又有哈沙比雅．同著他有米拉利的子孫耶篩亞、並他的眾子、和弟兄、共二十人。
8:19 And Hashabiah, and with him Jeshaiah of the sons of Merari, his brethren and their sons, twenty;
8:20 從前大衛和眾首領、派尼提寧服事利未人、現在從這尼提寧中也帶了二百二十人來、都是按名指定的。
8:20 Also of the Nethinims, whom David and the princes had appointed for the service of the Levites, two hundred and twenty Nethinims: all of them were expressed by name.
8:21 那時我在亞哈瓦河邊宣告禁食、為要在我們 神面前克苦己心、求他使我們和婦人孩子、並一切所有的、都得平坦的道路。
8:21 Then I proclaimed a fast there, at the river of Ahava, that we might afflict ourselves before our God, to seek of him a right way for us, and for our little ones, and for all our substance.
8:22 我求王撥步兵馬兵、幫助我們抵擋路上的仇敵、本以為羞恥、因我曾對王說、我們 神施恩的手、必幫助一切尋求他的．但他的能力和忿怒、必攻擊一切離棄他的。
8:22 For I was ashamed to require of the king a band of soldiers and horsemen to help us against the enemy in the way: because we had spoken unto the king, saying, The hand of our God is upon all them for good that seek him; but his power and his wrath is against all them that forsake him.
8:23 所以我們禁食祈求我們的 神、他就應允了我們。
8:23 So we fasted and besought our God for this: and he was implored of us.
8:24 我分派祭司長十二人、就是示利比、哈沙比雅、和他們的弟兄十人．
8:24 Then I separated twelve of the chief of the priests, Sherebiah, Hashabiah, and ten of their brethren with them,
8:25 將王、和謀士、軍長、並在那裡的以色列眾人、為我們 神殿所獻的金銀、和器皿、都秤了交給他們。
8:25 And weighed unto them the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, even the offering of the house of our God, which the king, and his counsellors, and his lords, and all Israel there present, had offered:
8:26 我秤了交在他們手中的銀子、有六百五十他連得、銀器重一百他連得、金子一百他連得、
8:26 I even weighed unto their hand six hundred and fifty talents of silver, and silver vessels an hundred talents, and of gold an hundred talents;
8:27 金碗二十個、重一千達利克、上等光銅的器皿兩個、寶貴如金。
8:27 Also twenty basons of gold, of a thousand drams; and two vessels of fine copper, precious as gold.
8:28 我對他們說、你們歸耶和華為聖、器皿也為聖、金銀是甘心獻給耶和華你們列祖之 神的．
8:28 And I said unto them, All of you are holy unto the LORD; the vessels are holy also; and the silver and the gold are a freewill offering unto the LORD God of your fathers.
8:29 你們當警醒看守、直到你們在耶路撒冷耶和華殿的庫內、在祭司長和利未族長、並以色列的各族長面前過了秤。
8:29 Watch all of you, and keep them, until all of you weigh them before the chief of the priests and the Levites, and chief of the fathers of Israel, at Jerusalem, in the chambers of the house of the LORD.
8:30 於是祭司、利未人、按著分量接受金銀、和器皿、要帶到耶路撒冷我們 神的殿裡。
8:30 So took the priests and the Levites the weight of the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, to bring them to Jerusalem unto the house of our God.
8:31 正月十二日、我們從亞哈瓦河邊起行、要往耶路撒冷去．我們 神的手保佑我們、救我們脫離仇敵、和路上埋伏之人的手。
8:31 Then we departed from the river of Ahava on the twelfth day of the first month, to go unto Jerusalem: and the hand of our God was upon us, and he delivered us from the hand of the enemy, and of such as lay in wait by the way.
8:32 我們到了耶路撒冷、在那裡住了三日。
8:32 And we came to Jerusalem, and abode there three days.
8:33 第四日、在我們 神的殿裡、把金銀和器皿都秤了、交在祭司烏利亞的兒子米利末的手中．同著他有非尼哈的兒子以利亞撒、還有利未人耶書亞的兒子約撒拔、和賓內的兒子挪亞底。
8:33 Now on the fourth day was the silver and the gold and the vessels weighed in the house of our God by the hand of Meremoth the son of Uriah the priest; and with him was Eleazar the son of Phinehas; and with them was Jozabad the son of Jeshua, and Noadiah the son of Binnui, Levites;
8:34 當時都點了數目、按著分量寫在冊上。
8:34 By number and by weight of every one: and all the weight was written at that time.
8:35 從擄到之地歸回的人、向以色列的 神獻燔祭、就是為以色列眾人獻公牛十二隻、公綿羊九十六隻、綿羊羔七十七隻．又獻公山羊十二隻作贖罪祭．這都是向耶和華焚獻的。
8:35 Also the children of those that had been carried away, which were come out of the captivity, offered burnt offerings unto the God of Israel, twelve bullocks for all Israel, ninety and six rams, seventy and seven lambs, twelve he goats for a sin offering: all this was a burnt offering unto the LORD.
8:36 他們將王的諭旨交給王所派的總督、與河西的省長、他們就幫助百姓、又供給 神殿裡所需用的。
8:36 And they delivered the king's commissions unto the king's lieutenants, and to the governors on this side the river: and they furthered the people, and the house of God.
9:1 這事作完了、眾首領來見我、說、以色列民和祭司、並利未人、沒有離絕迦南人、赫人、比利洗人、耶布斯人、亞捫人、摩押人、埃及人、亞摩利人、仍效法這些國的民、行可憎的事。
9:1 Now when these things were done, the princes came to me, saying, The people of Israel, and the priests, and the Levites, have not separated themselves from the people of the lands, doing according to their abominations, even of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Jebusites, the Ammonites, the Moabites, the Egyptians, and the Amorites.
9:2 因他們為自己和兒子、娶了這些外邦女子為妻、以致聖潔的種類和這些國的民混雜．而且首領和官長、在這事上為罪魁。
9:2 For they have taken of their daughters for themselves, and for their sons: so that the holy seed have mingled themselves with the people of those lands: yea, the hand of the princes and rulers has been chief in this trespass.
9:3 我一聽見這事、就撕裂衣服和外袍、拔了頭髮和鬍鬚、驚懼憂悶而坐。
9:3 And when I heard this thing, I rent my garment and my mantle, and plucked off the hair of my head and of my beard, and sat down astonished.
9:4 凡為以色列 神言語戰兢的、都因這被擄歸回之人所犯的罪、聚集到我這裡來．我就驚懼憂悶而坐、直到獻晚祭的時候。
9:4 Then were assembled unto me every one that trembled at the words of the God of Israel, because of the transgression of those that had been carried away; and I sat astonished until the evening sacrifice.
9:5 獻晚祭的時候我起來、心中愁苦、穿著撕裂的衣袍、雙膝跪下向耶和華我的 神舉手、
9:5 And at the evening sacrifice I arose up from my heaviness; and having rent my garment and my mantle, I fell upon my knees, and spread out my hands unto the LORD my God,
9:6 說、我的 神阿、我抱愧蒙羞、不敢向我 神仰面、因為我們的罪孽滅頂、我們的罪惡滔天。
9:6 And said, O my God, I am ashamed and blush to lift up my face to you, my God: for our iniquities are increased over our head, and our trespass is grown up unto the heavens.
9:7 從我們列祖直到今日、我們的罪惡甚重、因我們的罪孽、我們和君王、祭司、都交在外邦列王的手中、殺害、擄掠、搶奪、臉上蒙羞、正如今日的光景。
9:7 Since the days of our fathers have we been in a great trespass unto this day; and for our iniquities have we, our kings, and our priests, been delivered into the hand of the kings of the lands, to the sword, to captivity, and to a spoil, and to confusion of face, as it is this day.
9:8 現在耶和華我們的 神暫且施恩與我們、給我們留些逃脫的人、使我們安穩如釘子釘在他的聖所、我們的 神好光照我們的眼目、使我們在受轄制之中稍微復興。
9:8 And now for a little space grace has been showed from the LORD our God, to leave us a remnant to escape, and to give us a nail in his holy place, that our God may lighten our eyes, and give us a little reviving in our bondage.
9:9 我們是奴僕、然而在受轄制之中、我們的 神仍沒有丟棄我們、在波斯王眼前向我們施恩、叫我們復興、能重建我們 神的殿、修其毀壞之處、使我們在猶大和耶路撒冷有牆垣。
9:9 For we were bondmen; yet our God has not forsaken us in our bondage, but has extended mercy unto us in the sight of the kings of Persia, to give us a reviving, to set up the house of our God, and to repair the desolations thereof, and to give us a wall in Judah and in Jerusalem.
9:10 我們的 神阿、既是如此、我們還有甚麼話可說呢．因為我們已經離棄你的命令、
9:10 And now, O our God, what shall we say after this? for we have forsaken your commandments,
9:11 就是你藉你僕人眾先知所吩咐的、說、你們要去得為業之地是污穢之地、因列國之民的污穢、和可憎的事、叫全地從這邊直到那邊、滿了污穢。
9:11 Which you have commanded by your servants the prophets, saying, The land, unto which all of you go to possess it, is an unclean land with the filthiness of the people of the lands, with their abominations, which have filled it from one end to another with their uncleanness.
9:12 所以不可將你們的女兒嫁他們的兒子、也不可為你們的兒子娶他們的女兒、永不可求他們的平安、和他們的利益、這樣你們就可以強盛、喫這地的美物、並遺留這地給你們的子孫永遠為業。
9:12 Now therefore give not your daughters unto their sons, neither take their daughters unto your sons, nor seek their peace or their wealth for ever: that all of you may be strong, and eat the good of the land, and leave it for an inheritance to your children for ever.
9:13 神阿、我們因自己的惡行和大罪、遭遇了這一切的事、並且你刑罰我們輕於我們罪所當得的、又給我們留下這些人．
9:13 And after all that has come upon us for our evil deeds, and for our great trespass, seeing that you our God have punished us less than our iniquities deserve, and have given us such deliverance as this;
9:14 我們豈可再違背你的命令、與這行可憎之事的民結親呢、若這樣行、你豈不向我們發怒、將我們滅絕、以致沒有一個剩下逃脫的人麼。
9:14 Should we again break your commandments, and join in affinity with the people of these abominations? would not you be angry with us till you had consumed us, so that there should be no remnant nor escaping?
9:15 耶和華以色列的 神阿、因你是公義的、我們這剩下的人纔得逃脫、正如今日的光景．看哪、我們在你面前有罪惡、因此無人在你面前站立得住。
9:15 O LORD God of Israel, you are righteous: for we remain yet escaped, as it is this day: behold, we are before you in our trespasses: for we cannot stand before you because of this.
10:1 以斯拉禱告、認罪、哭泣、俯伏在 神殿前的時候、有以色列中的男女孩童、聚集到以斯拉那裡、成了大會．眾民無不痛哭。
10:1 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.
10:2 屬以攔的子孫、耶歇的兒子示迦尼、對以斯拉說、我們在此地娶了外邦女子為妻、干犯了我們的 神、然而以色列人還有指望。
10:2 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.
10:3 現在當與我們的 神立約、休這一切的妻、離絕他們所生的、照著我主和那因 神命令戰兢之人所議定的、按律法而行。
10:3 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.
10:4 你起來、這是你當辦的事、我們必幫助你、你當奮勉而行。
10:4 Arise; for this matter belongs unto you: we also will be with you: be of good courage, and do it.
10:5 以斯拉便起來、使祭司長、和利未人、並以色列眾人起誓、說、必照這話去行．他們就起了誓。
10:5 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 swore.
10:6 以斯拉從 神殿前起來、進入以利亞實的兒子約哈難的屋裡、到了那裡不喫飯、也不喝水．因為被擄歸回之人所犯的罪、心裡悲傷。
10:6 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.
10:7 他們通告猶大和耶路撒冷被擄歸回的人、叫他們在耶路撒冷聚集．
10:7 And they made proclamation throughout Judah and Jerusalem unto all the children of the captivity, that they should gather themselves together unto Jerusalem;
10:8 凡不遵首領和長老所議定三日之內不來的、就必抄他的家、使他離開被擄歸回之人的會。
10:8 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.
10:9 於是猶大和便雅憫眾人、三日之內都聚集在耶路撒冷．那日正是九月二十日、眾人都坐在 神殿前的寬闊處．因這事、又因下大雨、就都戰兢。
10:9 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.
10:10 祭司以斯拉站起來、對他們說、你們有罪了．因你們娶了外邦的女子為妻、增添以色列人的罪惡。
10:10 And Ezra the priest stood up, and said unto them, All of you have transgressed, and have taken strange wives, to increase the trespass of Israel.
10:11 現在當向耶和華你們列祖的 神認罪、遵行他的旨意、離絕這些國的民、和外邦的女子。
10:11 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.
10:12 會眾都大聲回答說、我們必照著你的話行．
10:12 Then all the congregation answered and said with a loud voice, As you have said, so must we do.
10:13 只是百姓眾多、又逢大雨的時令、我們不能站在外頭、這也不是一兩天辦完的事、因我們在這事上犯了大罪。
10:13 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.
10:14 不如為全會眾派首領辦理．凡我們城邑中娶外邦女子為妻的、當按所定的日期、同著本城的長老和士師而來、直到辦完這事． 神的烈怒就轉離我們了。
10:14 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.
10:15 惟有亞撒黑的兒子約拿單、特瓦的兒子雅哈謝、阻擋〔或作總辦〕這事、並有米書蘭、和利未人沙比太幫助他們。
10:15 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.
10:16 被擄歸回的人如此而行。祭司以斯拉和些族長、按著宗族、都指名見派、在十月初一日、一同在座查辦這事。
10:16 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.
10:17 到正月初一日、纔查清娶外邦女子的人數。
10:17 And they made an end with all the men that had taken strange wives by the first day of the first month.
10:18 在祭司中查出娶外邦女子為妻的、就是耶書亞的子孫約薩達的兒子、和他弟兄瑪西雅、以利以謝、雅立、基大利、
10:18 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.
10:19 他們便應許必休他們的妻．他們因有罪、就獻群中的一隻公綿羊贖罪。
10:19 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.
