Nihemaia 4
1 Sa: naba: la: de da ninia Yu dunu da moilai gagosu gagobe amo nababeba: le, e da ninima ougili bagadewane lasogole oufesega: su.
But it came to pass, when Sanballat heard that we were building the wall, it angered him, and he was greatly displeased, —and mocked the Jews;
2 E da ea dogolegei dunu odagiaba, amola Samelia dadi gagui dunu odagiaba, amane sia: i, “Goe Yu hahaninisi dunu da adi hamosala: ? Ilia da moilai bu hahamomusa: dawa: bela: ? Ilia Godema gobele salasu hamobeba: le, eso afae amoga hawa: hamosu dagomusa: dawa: bela: ? Amola, ilia da isu laluga nei amoga diasu gagusu gele noga: i hamomusa: dawa: bela: ?”
and spake before his brethren, and the army of Samaria, and said, What are, these feeble Jews, doing? will they fortify themselves? will they sacrifice? will they make an end in a day? will they bring to life the stones out of the heaps of dust, when, they, have been burned up?
3 Doubaia amola da Sa: naba: la: de dafulili lelu. E amane sia: i, “Mae dawa: ma! Ilia gagoi noga: i gagomu da hamedei! Fogisi fonobahadi da ilia gagoi amo fuli fasimusa: defele ba: mu,” e oufesega: ne amane sia: i.
Now, Tobiah the Ammonite, was beside him, —so he said, Even that which they are building, if a fox should go up, he would break down their stone wall!
4 Amo sia: nababeba: le, na da Godema sia: ne gadoi amane, “Gode! Dia ilia oufesega: su nabima! Ilia oufesega: su amo ilima sinidigima! Di da eno dunu ilia liligi wamolama: ne yolesima. Amola ha lai dunu da ili se dabe hamoma: ne, sedaga sogega oule masa: ma.
Hear, O our God, for we have become a contempt, and turn thou back their reproach upon their own head, —and give them up as a prey, in the land of captivity;
5 Ilia wadela: i hou mae gogolema: ne olofoma. Bai ilia da ninia moilai gagosu hawa: hamonanoba, ilia da ninima lasogole oufesega: lala.”
and do not cover their iniquity, and, their sin before thee, let it not be blotted out, —for they have caused vexation before them who are building.
6 Amalalu, ninia da gagoi amo bu gagolalu. Fonobahadi hedolowane ninia da gagolalu damana yolei defei amoga doaga: i. Bai dunu ilia da hawa: hamomu hanai galu.
So we built the wall, and all the wall was finished unto the half thereof, —and the people had a mind to work.
7 Sa: naba: la: de, Doubaia, A:la: be soge dunu, A:mone soge dunu amola A: siedode soge dunu da ninia hehenane Yelusaleme gagoi gagolalebe amola dibi amo gagoi ganodini nini ga: simusa: ahoanebe amo nababeba: le, ilia da ougi bagade ba: i.
But it came to pass, when Sanballat and Tobiah and the Arabians and the Ammonites and the Ashdodites heard that the repair of the walls of Jerusalem had gone up, that the breaches began to be stopped, that it angered them exceedingly;
8 Amaiba: le, ilia da Yelusaleme amoga doagala: musa: amola ninia hawa: hamoi wadela: musa: sia: dasu.
and they conspired, all of them together, to come, to fight against Jerusalem, —and to cause it harm;
9 Be ninia da ninia Godema sia: ne gadosu. Amola ninia da eso amola gasi ganodini, sosodo aligisu dunu ili liligi noga: le ouligima: ne, ilegei dagoi.
howbeit we prayed unto our God, —and set a watch against them, day and night, because of them.
10 Yuda dunu da agoane gesami hea: su, “Ninia gisasu liligi da dioi bagade, amola gisabeba: le ninia da gasa hamedesa. Wadela: i isu ninia gisawene, gaguli ahoa da gilisidafa. Amaiba: le, ninia da moilai gagoi wali eso habodane gaguma: bela: ?”
Then said Judah, The strength of the burden-bearer faileth, and, the rubbish, aboundeth, —and, we, are not able to build at the wall;
11 Ninima ha lai dunu da sia: dasu amo ninia Yu dunu da ilia hamobe da hame dawa: iyale ilia dawa: i. Ilia da ninima hedolo doagala: loba, nini huluane medole legele amola ninia hawa: hamosu hedofamusa: dawa: i.
and our adversaries have said, They shall not know, neither shall they see, until we come into their midst, and slay them, —so shall we cause the work to cease.
12 Be eso bagohame amoga, Yu dunu amo da ninia ha lai dunu gilisisu ganodini esalu, amo da ninima misini, amo ha lai sia: dasu ninima sisasu olelei.
But it came to pass, when the Jews dwelling near them came in, then said they unto us, ten times, From all places whither ye shall turn, [they will be] upon us!
13 Amaiba: le na da dunu ilima gegesu gobihei, goge agei amola dadi, amo gegesu liligi ilima i. Amola ilia fi afae afae amo gagoi hame gagoi dagoi sogebi amoga sosodo aligima: ne sia: i.
So I set—on the lower slopes of the place behind the wall in the waste grounds, —yea I set the people, by their families, with their swords, their spears and their bows.
14 Na ba: loba da dunu da bagadewane da: i dioi. Amaiba: le, na da ilia ouligisu dunu amola ouligisu hina dunu ilima amane sia: i, “Dilia ha lai dunu amoba: le mae beda: ma. Hina Gode da gasa bagadedafa amola osobo bagade dunu huluane da ema beda: sa. Amo dawa: sea, dilia fi dunu, dilia mano, dilia uda amola dilia diasu amo gaga: ma: ne gegema.”
Then I looked and rose up, and said—unto the nobles and unto the deputies and unto the rest of the people, Do not ye fear because of them, —the great and fearful Lord, remember ye, so shall ye fight for your brethren, your sons and your daughters, your wives, and your houses.
15 Fa: no, ninia ha lai dunu da ninia da ilia doagala: musa: sia: dasu nabi dagoi, amo ilia da nabi. Gode da ilia wadela: i logo ga: i dagoi, amo ilia da dawa: i. Amalalu, ninia huluane da gagoi bu gagomusa: , amoga buhagi.
And it came to pass, when our enemies heard that it was known to us, and that God had overturned their counsel, then returned we, all of us, unto the wall, every man unto his work.
16 Amo esoga amola fa: no, na hawa: hamosu dunu eno dogoa mogili da gegesu liligi gaguli amola da: igene ga: ne, ninia ha lai dunu mabeale sosodo ouligili oulelu, amola eno mogili da gagoi gagomusa: hawa: hamosu. Amola ouligisu dunu da dunu huluane bagadewane fuligala: su.
And it came to pass, from that day, the half of my young men, were working in the work, and, the half of them, were grasping the spears, the bucklers, and the bows, and the coats of mail, —but, the rulers, were behind all the house of Judah.
17 Be hawa: hamonanu dunu amola liligi gaguli ahoasu dunu da agoane hamosu. Ilia da lobo la: idi amoga dadi gagui amola lobo eno la: idi amoga hawa: hamosu.
They who were building at the wall and they who were carrying burdens, they who were lifting, [each man], with his one hand, was working at the work, and, with the other, was grasping the weapon.
18 Amola dunu da gagosu hawa: hamonoba, ilia huluane gegesu gobihei bagade bulua salawane hawa: hamonanu. Amola dunu amo da “biugale” wele sia: su liligi ouligisu da ani dafulili aligi.
Even they who were building, every man, had his sword girded upon his loins, and so was building, —and, he that sounded the horn, was by my side.
19 Na da dunu amola ilia ouligisu dunu ilima amane sia: i, “Dilia hawa: hamosu sogebi da bagadedafa amola dilia hisu hisuya hawa: hamonana.
So I said unto the nobles and unto the deputies, and unto the rest of the people, The work, is great and large, —and, we, are separated upon the wall, far away, each man from his brother:
20 Dilia ‘biugale’ wele sia: su nabasea, nama gilisila misa. Amola ninia Gode da nini fidili gegemu,” na amane sia: i.
In what place soever ye shall hear the sound of the horn, thither, gather yourselves unto us, —our God, will fight for us.
21 Amaiba: le, eso huluane hadigibi galu, dunu mogili da hawa: hamonanea, mogili da gegemusa: oulelu. Amalalu, daeya gasili gasumuni aligibiba: le fisi.
So, we, were working at the work, —one half of them, grasping the spears, from the uprisings of the dawn, until the coming out of the stars.
22 Amo esoga, ouligisu dunu amo da Yelusaleme moilai amo ganodini ouligilaleawane hadigima: ne na da sia: i dagoi. Bai ninia da gilisili esoga hawa: hamomu amola gasia moilai amo sosodo aligimusa: dawa: i.
Moreover, at that time, I said to the people, Let, every one with his young man, lodge for the night in the midst of Jerusalem, —so shall they serve us, in the night, as a watch, and, the day, for work.
23 Na, na ouligisu dunu, dadi gagui dunu amola hawa: hamosu dunu, ninia golaloba, abula sali mae gisa: le amowane golasu amola ninia dadi amola gegesu liligi loboga gaguiwane golasu.
So neither I, nor my brethren, nor my young men, nor the men of the watch that followed me, none of us, put off our clothes, —every one [went] with his weapon to the water.
