Ezra Reads the Law

1And all the people gathered as one person at the public square which was in front of the Water Gate, and they asked Ezra the scribe to bring the Book of the Law of Moses which the LORD had given to Israel. 2Then Ezra the priest brought the Law before the assembly of men, women, and all who could listen with understanding, on the first day of the seventh month. 3And he read from it before the public square which was in front of the Water Gate, from early morning until midday, in the presence of men and women, those who could understand; and all the people were attentive to the Book of the Law. 4Ezra the scribe stood at a wooden podium which they had made for the purpose. And beside him stood Mattithiah, Shema, Anaiah, Uriah, Hilkiah, and Maaseiah on his right; and Pedaiah, Mishael, Malchijah, Hashum, Hashbaddanah, Zechariah, and Meshullam on his left. 5Then Ezra opened the book in the sight of all the people, for he was standing above all the people; and when he opened it, all the people stood up. 6Then Ezra blessed the LORD, the great God. And all the people answered, “Amen, Amen!” with the raising of their hands; then they kneeled down and worshiped the LORD with their faces to the ground. 7Also Jeshua, Bani, Sherebiah, Jamin, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodiah, Maaseiah, Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Hanan, Pelaiah, and the Levites explained the Law to the people while the people remained in their place. 8They read from the book, from the Law of God, translating to give the sense so that they understood the reading.
1到了七月,以色列人住在自己的城裏。那時,他們如同一人聚集在水門前的寬闊處,請文士以斯拉將耶和華藉摩西傳給以色列人的律法書帶來。2七月初一日,祭司以斯拉將律法書帶到聽了能明白的男女會眾面前。3在水門前的寬闊處,從清早到晌午,在眾男女、一切聽了能明白的人面前讀這律法書。眾民側耳而聽。4文士以斯拉站在為這事特備的木臺上。瑪他提雅、示瑪、亞奈雅、烏利亞、希勒家,和瑪西雅站在他的右邊;毘大雅、米沙利、瑪基雅、哈順、哈拔大拿、撒迦利亞,和米書蘭站在他的左邊。5以斯拉站在眾民以上,在眾民眼前展開這書。他一展開,眾民就都站起來。6以斯拉稱頌耶和華至大的神;眾民都舉手應聲說:「阿們!阿們!」就低頭,面伏於地,敬拜耶和華。7耶書亞、巴尼、示利比、雅憫、亞谷、沙比太、荷第雅、瑪西雅、基利他、亞撒利雅、約撒拔、哈難、毘萊雅,和利未人使百姓明白律法;百姓都站在自己的地方。8他們清清楚楚地念神的律法書,講明意思,使百姓明白所念的。

This Day Is Holy

9Then Nehemiah, who was the governor, and Ezra the priest and scribe, and the Levites who taught the people said to all the people, “This day is holy to the LORD your God; do not mourn or weep.” For all the people were weeping when they heard the words of the Law. 10Then he said to them, “Go, eat the festival foods, drink the sweet drinks, and send portions to him who has nothing prepared; for this day is holy to our Lord. Do not be grieved, for the joy of the LORD is your refuge.” 11So the Levites silenced all the people, saying, “Be still, for the day is holy; do not be grieved.” 12Then all the people went away to eat, drink, to send portions, and to celebrate a great feast, because they understood the words which had been made known to them.
9省長尼希米和作祭司的文士以斯拉,並教訓百姓的利未人,對眾民說:「今日是耶和華─你們神的聖日,不要悲哀哭泣。」這是因為眾民聽見律法書上的話都哭了;10又對他們說:「你們去吃肥美的,喝甘甜的,有不能預備的就分給他,因為今日是我們主的聖日。你們不要憂愁,因靠耶和華而得的喜樂是你們的力量。」11於是利未人使眾民靜默,說:「今日是聖日;不要作聲,也不要憂愁。」12眾民都去吃喝,也分給人,大大快樂,因為他們明白所教訓他們的話。

Feast of Booths Restored

13Then on the second day the heads of fathers’ households of all the people, the priests, and the Levites were gathered to Ezra the scribe so that they might gain insight into the words of the Law. 14And they found written in the Law how the LORD had commanded through Moses that the sons of Israel were to live in booths during the feast of the seventh month. 15And that they were to proclaim and circulate a proclamation in all their cities and in Jerusalem, saying, “Go out to the hills, and bring olive branches and wild olive branches, myrtle branches, palm branches, and branches of other trees with thick branches, to make booths, as it is written.” 16So the people went out and brought them and made booths for themselves, each on his roof, and in their courtyards and in the courtyards of the house of God, and in the public square at the Water Gate, and in the square at the Gate of Ephraim. 17The entire assembly of those who had returned from the captivity made booths and lived in the booths. Indeed, the sons of Israel had not done so since the days of Joshua the son of Nun to that day. And there was very great rejoicing. 18He read from the Book of the Law of God daily, from the first day to the last day. And they celebrated the feast seven days, and on the eighth day there was a festive assembly in accordance with the ordinance.
13次日,眾民的族長、祭司,和利未人都聚集到文士以斯拉那裏,要留心聽律法上的話。14他們見律法上寫著,耶和華藉摩西吩咐以色列人要在七月節住棚,15並要在各城和耶路撒冷宣傳報告說:「你們當上山,將橄欖樹、野橄欖樹、番石榴樹、棕樹,和各樣茂密樹的枝子取來,照著所寫的搭棚。」16於是百姓出去,取了樹枝來,各人在自己的房頂上,或院內,或神殿的院內,或水門的寬闊處,或以法蓮門的寬闊處搭棚。17從擄到之地歸回的全會眾就搭棚,住在棚裏。從嫩的兒子約書亞的時候直到這日,以色列人沒有這樣行。於是眾人大大喜樂。18從頭一天直到末一天,以斯拉每日念神的律法書。眾人守節七日,第八日照例有嚴肅會。
