Nihemaia 13

1 Esela amola gobele salasu dunu da Mousese ea Sema amo Isala: ili dunu ilima idilaloba, ilia da sema afae ba: i dagoi. Amo da A: mone fi dunu amola Moua: be fi dunu da wali amola hobea eso huluanedafa amo Gode Ea fi dunu ilima da hamedafa madelagimu.

On that day they read in the book of Moses in the hearing of the people; and in it was found written, that the Ammonite and the Moabite should not come into the congregation of God for ever;

2 Bai A: mone amola Moua: be fi dunu ilia da Isala: ili dunu da Idibidi soge amoga fisili masa: ne, logoga ahoanoba, ilima ha: i manu amola hano hame i. Be amo hou baligili, ilia da Ba: ila: me amo e da Isala: ili dunuma gagabusu aligima: ne hamomusa: , ema muni i. Be ninia Gode da amo gagabusu aligi sinidigili, bu Isala: ili fi dunu dogolegele hahawane fidima: ne, Ba: ila: me ea lafidili sia: i.

Because they met not the children of Israel with bread and with water, but hired Balaam against them, that he should curse them: but our God turned the curse into a blessing.

3 Isala: ili dunu da amo sema idibi nabaloba, ilia ga fi dunu ilia fi amoga mae gilisima: ne ilegele sia: i.

Now it came to pass, when they had heard the law, that they separated from Israel all the mixed multitude.

4 Gobele salasu dunu Ilaiasibi da Debolo modale ligisisu diasu ouligisu. E da eso bagohame Doubaia amo hahawane ba: i.

And before this, Eliashib the priest, having the oversight of the chamber of the house of our God, was allied to Tobiah:

5 Debolo modale ligisisu amo ganodini, sesei afae bagade ba: i. Amo sesei da iasu liligi amo gagoma, gabusiga: manoma, Debolo hawa: hamosu liligi, amola liligi amo gobele salasu dunuma i amola ‘daide’ (gagoma, waini hano amola olife susuligi) amo da Lifai dunu amola Debolo gesami hea: su dunu amola Debolo sosodo aligisu dunu ilima iasu, amo liligi ligisima: ne amo sesei da ilegei dagoi. Be Ilaiasibi da amo sesei Doubaia amo ganodini esaloma: ne iasu.

And he had prepared for him a great chamber, where before they laid the meat offerings, the frankincense, and the vessels, and the tithes of the grain, the new wine, and the oil, which was commanded to be given to the Levites, and the singers, and the porters; and the offerings of the priests.

6 Amo hou hamonanoba, na da Yelusaleme moilai amo ganodini hame esalebe ba: i. Bai Adasegesisi ea Ba: bilone ouligisu ode 32 amoga, na da ema sia: sia: ne iasu ima: ne, ema buhagi. Na da ouesalu, amalalu e da na Yuda sogega bu masa: ne logo doasi.

But in all this time I was not at Jerusalem: for in the two and thirtieth year of Artaxerxes king of Babylon I came to the king, and after certain days I obtained leave of the king:

7 Na da Yelusaleme moilaiga buhagili, Ilaiasibi da Doubaia ema Debolo sesei ia dagoi ba: beba: le, bagadewane fofogadigi.

And I came to Jerusalem, and understood of the evil that Eliashib did for Tobiah, in preparing for him a chamber in the courts of the house of God.

8 Na da ougi bagade ba: i. Na da Doubaia ea liligi gadili galagai.

And it grieved me greatly: therefore I cast forth all the household goods of Tobiah out of the chamber.

9 Na da hawa: hamosu dunuma ilia da amo Debolo sesei Gode Ea sema defele noga: le dodofema: ne sia: i. Bai ledo bagade galebeba: le, Debolo hawa: hamosu liligi, gagoma iasu amola gabusiga: manoma bu legemu da hamedei. Be ilia da amo liligi dodofei dagoiba: le, bu legei.

Then I commanded, and they cleansed the chambers: and there I brought again the vessels of the house of God, with the meat offering and the frankincense.

10 Amola na da nabi amo Debolo gesami hea: su dunu amola Lifai dunu mogili da Yelusaleme moilai fisili, ilia ifabi amoga buhagi dagoi. Bai dunu da ilia ha: i manu amola labe defele ilima hame iasu.

And I perceived that the portions of the Levites had not been given them: for the Levites and the singers, that did the work, had fled every one to his field.

11 Ouligisu dunu da Debolo diasu noga: le hame ouligibiba: le, na da ilima gagabole sia: i. Amola na da Lifai dunu amola Debolo gesami hea: su dunu amo huluane Debolo diasuga bu oule misini, ilima bu hawa: hamoma: ne sia: i.

Then I contended with the rulers, and said, Why is the house of God forsaken? And I gathered them together, and set them in their place.

12 Amalalu, Isala: ili dunu da bu ilia gagoma, waini amola olife susuligi amo ‘daide’ huluane ilia da Debolo modale ligisisu sesei amoga bu gaguli misi.

Then all Judah brought the tithe of the grain and the new wine and the oil to the treasuries.

13 Amola na da hagudu dedei dunu amo modale ligisisu diasuga ouligimusa: ilegei dagoi, amo, gobele salasu dunu Sielemaia, sema dawa: su dunu Sa: idoge amola Lifai dunu Bida: ia. Amola ilia fidisu dunu Ha: ina: ne (Sa: ge ea mano amola Ma: danaia ea aowa) amo na da ilegei. Amo dunu ilia hou da moloiba: le, ilia da liligi mae wamolale, ilia na: iyado hawa: hamosu dunuma imunu, na da dawa: i galu.

And I made treasurers over the treasuries, Shelemiah the priest, and Zadok the scribe, and of the Levites, Pedaiah: and next to them was Hanan the son of Zaccur, the son of Mattaniah: for they were accounted faithful, and their office was to distribute to their brethren.

14 ‘Na Gode! Dawa: ma! Na da Dia Debolo amola Dima nodone sia: ne gadosu hou bagade fidima: ne hamoi. Amo Di ba: ma!’

Remember me, O my God, concerning this, and wipe not out my good deeds that I have done for the house of my God, and for its offices.

15 Amo esoga na da Yuda fi dunu Sa: bade esoga hawa: hamonanebe ba: i. Mogili ilia da waini hano lama: ne, waini fage ososa: gisu. Mogili da gagoma, waini, figi fage amola liligi eno amo ilia dougi da: iya lidili legelalebe, na da ba: i. Ilia da amo liligi Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega gaguli masusa: dawa: i. Na da ilima Sa: bade eso amoga liligi mae bidi lama: ne sisane sia: i.

In those days I saw in Judah some treading wine presses on the sabbath, and bringing in sheaves, and putting them on donkeys; as also wine, grapes, and figs, and all manner of burdens, which they brought into Jerusalem on the sabbath day: and I testified against them in the day when they sold food.

16 Dunu eno da musa: Daia moilaiga esalu, ilia da Yelusaleme amo ganodini esalebe ba: i. Ilia da menabo amola liligi eno bagohame amo Sa: bade esoga Yu dunuma bidi lama: ne, Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega gaguli masu.

There dwelt men of Tyre also in the city, who brought fish, and all kinds of wares, and sold on the sabbath to the children of Judah, and in Jerusalem.

17 Na da Yu ouligisu dunuma gagabole amane sia: i, “Dilia da wadela: le hamonana. Dilia da hadigi Sa: bade eso amo wadela: sa.

Then I contended with the nobles of Judah, and said to them, What evil thing is this that ye do, and profane the sabbath day?

18 Amo baiga Gode da musa: Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade wadela: lesi dagoi amola dilia aowalali ilima se dabe bagade iasu. Be dilia da Gode da Isala: ili dunuma bu ougima: ne, Sa: bade eso wadela: sa,” na gagabole sia: i.

Did not your fathers thus, and did not our God bring all this evil upon us, and upon this city? yet ye bring more wrath upon Israel by profaning the sabbath.

19 Amaiba: le, Sa: bade eso huluane da muni, daeya agoane, ilia da moilai logo ga: sima: ne na da sia: i. Amalalu, Sa: bade eso da dagobeba: le fawane bu doasima: ne sia: i. Na da na hawa: hamosu dunu mogili ilia logo ga: su sosodo aligima: ne sia: i. Dunu da Sa: bade eso amoga liligi ganodini mae gaguli misa: ne, agoane hamoi.

And it came to pass, that when the gates of Jerusalem began to be dark before the sabbath, I commanded that the gates should be shut, and charged that they should not be opened till after the sabbath: and I set some of my servants at the gates, that there should no burden be brought in on the sabbath day.

20 Eso afae afae bidi lasu dunu mogili da Falaida: i gasi amoga moilai gagoi amoga gadili esalebe ba: i.

So the merchants and sellers of all kind of wares lodged outside of Jerusalem once or twice.

21 Na da ilima sisasu amane olelei, “Dilia da abuliba: le hahabe misa: ne ouligisala: ? Dilia amo hou bu hamosea, na da dilima doagala: musa: misunu.” Amalalu, ilia da Sa: bade esoga bu hame misi.

Then I testified against them, and said to them, Why lodge ye before the wall? if ye do so again, I will lay hands on you. From that time forth they came no more on the sabbath.

22 Na da Lifai dunuma amo ilia da ilia ledo hou dodofelalu, Sa: bade eso mae wadela: ma: ne, ilia da logo ga: su amo sosodo aligima: ne sia: i. Gode! Amo amola dawa: ma! Di da asigi bagadeba: le, na gaga: ma.

And I commanded the Levites that they should cleanse themselves, and that they should come and keep the gates, to sanctify the sabbath day. Remember me, O my God, concerning this also, and spare me according to the greatness of thy mercy.

23 Amola amo esoga, Yu dunu mogili ilia da A: siedode, A:mone amola Moua: be soge amodili uda lai dagoi, na nabi.

In those days also I saw Jews that had married women of Ashdod, of Ammon, and of Moab:

24 Ilia mano mogili da A: siedode sia: o ga fi sia: fawane sia: su. Ilia da ninia Isala: ili sia: hame dawa: i galu.

And their children spoke half in the speech of Ashdod, and could not speak in the Jews’ language, but according to the language of each people.

25 Na da amo dunuma gagabole sia: i. Na da Gode da ilima gagabusu aligima: ne sia: i. Na da ili fasu amola ilia dialuma hinabo golole fasi. Amalalu, na da sia: beba: le, ilia da Gode Ea Dioba: le, ilia amola ilia mano da ga fi uda eno hamedafa lamu ilegele sia: i.

And I contended with them, and cursed them, and smote certain of them, and plucked off their hair, and made them swear by God, saying, Ye shall not give your daughters to their sons, nor take their daughters to your sons, or for yourselves.

26 Na amane sia: i. “Hina bagade Soloumane da ga fi uda laiba: le, wadela: le bagade hamosu. Soloumane da fifi asi gala huluane ilia hina bagade baligi dagoi. Gode da e dogolegeiba: le, e Isala: ili soge huluane ouligima: ne, hina bagade hamoi. Be e da dafane, wadela: le hamoi dagoi.

Did not Solomon king of Israel sin by these things? yet among many nations was there no king like him, who was beloved by his God, and God made him king over all Israel: nevertheless even him did foreign women cause to sin.

27 Amaiba: le, ninia da dilia hou defele, Gode Ea sia: mae nabawane ga fi uda lamu da defeala: ? Defea hame mabu!”

Shall we then hearken to you to do all this great evil, to transgress against our God in marrying foreign women?

28 Yoiada da gobele salasu Ouligisu Ilaiasibi, amo ea mano esalu. Be Yoiada egefe afae da Sa: naba: la: de (ea moilai da Bede Houlone) amo ea uda mano lai. Amaiba: le, na da Yoiada ema Yelusaleme moilai fisili masa: ne sia: i. Amola e da mugululi asi.

And one of the sons of Joiada, the son of Eliashib the high priest, was son in law to Sanballat the Horonite: therefore I drove him away from me.

29 Hina Gode! Dawa: ma! Amo dunu ilia da gobele salasu hou ilegei amo wadela: lesi dagoi amola gousa: su di da Lifai amola gobele salasu dunu ilima hamoi, amo wadela: lesi.

Remember them, O my God, because they have defiled the priesthood, and the covenant of the priesthood, and of the Levites.

30 Na da Isala: ili dunu hadigi ba: ma: ne, ledo hou amola liligi huluane fadegai. Lifai amola gobele salasu dunu ilia hawa: hamosu noga: le dawa: ma: ne, na da ilia hawa: hamosu sema dedei.

Thus I cleansed them from all strangers, and appointed the duties of the priests and the Levites, every one in his business;

31 Na da lalu ifa amo Godema gobele salasu hamoma: ne, amo ilia da eso ilegei amoga gaguli misa: ne sia: i. Amola dunu huluane da ilia bisili fai gagoma amola ifa fage gaguli misa: ne sia: i. Hina Gode! Amo na hou huluane dawa: ma! Amola nama hahawane hamoma: ne ilegema! Sia: ama dagoi

And for the wood offering, at times appointed, and for the firstfruits. Remember me, O my God, for good.
