Capítulo 10

₁ |Esdras 10:1| While Ezra was praying and confessing, weeping and throwing himself down before the house of God, a large crowd of Israelites — men, women and children — gathered round him. They too wept bitterly.

₂ |Esdras 10:2| Then Shecaniah son of Jehiel, one of the descendants of Elam, said to Ezra, “We have been unfaithful to our God by marrying foreign women from the peoples around us. But in spite of this, there is still hope for Israel.

₃ |Esdras 10:3| Now let us make a covenant before our God to send away all these women and their children, in accordance with the counsel of my lord and of those who fear the commands of our God. Let it be done according to the Law.

₄ |Esdras 10:4| Rise up; this matter is in your hands. We will support you, so take courage and do it.”

₅ |Esdras 10:5| So Ezra rose up and put the leading priests and Levites and all Israel under oath to do what had been suggested. And they took the oath.

₆ |Esdras 10:6| Then Ezra withdrew from before the house of God and went to the room of Jehohanan son of Eliashib. While he was there, he ate no food and drank no water, because he continued to mourn over the unfaithfulness of the exiles.

₇ |Esdras 10:7| A proclamation was then issued throughout Judah and Jerusalem for all the exiles to assemble in Jerusalem.

₈ |Esdras 10:8| Anyone who failed to appear within three days would forfeit all his property, in accordance with the decision of the officials and elders, and would himself be expelled from the assembly of the exiles.

₉ |Esdras 10:9| Within the three days, all the men of Judah and Benjamin had gathered in Jerusalem. And on the twentieth day of the ninth month, all the people were sitting in the square before the house of God, greatly distressed by the occasion and because of the rain.

₁₀ |Esdras 10:10| Then Ezra the priest stood up and said to them, “You have been unfaithful; you have married foreign women, adding to Israel’s guilt.
