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.
Desde el tiempo de nuestros antepasados hasta ahora, hemos sido culpables de grandes pecados. Por causa de nuestras maldades, nosotros, nuestros reyes y nuestros sacerdotes hemos sido entregados a gobernantes extranjeros que nos han conquistado con espada, nos han llevado cautivos, nos han despojado y nos han traído vergüenza, tal como vemos hoy.
Ezra reconoce que los pecados del pueblo han traído como consecuencia la conquista, el cautiverio y la vergüenza bajo gobiernos extranjeros.
📚 Contexto Histórico
Ezra was a Jewish priest and scribe who returned to Jerusalem around 458 BC after the Babylonian exile. The Jewish people had recently been allowed to return and rebuild their temple, but many were intermarrying with pagan peoples, which violated God's law. Ezra is offering this prayer of confession, recognizing that Israel's pattern of unfaithfulness had led to centuries of conquest by Assyrians, Babylonians, and now Persians.
