Nihemaia 8
1 Oubi fesu amoga, Isala: ili dunu huluane da ilia moilai amo ganodini fi dagoi ba: i. Oubi bisili doaga: i eso amoga ilia da Yelusaleme moilai amo ganodini sogebi amo da Hano Logo Ga: su gadenene amoga gilisi. Esela da gobele salasu dunu amola e da Sema (amo Hina Gode da Mousesegili i, amola Mousese da Isala: ili dunu ilima alofele i), amo ea bai bagade dawa: su. Ilia da Esela ema amo Sema buga gaguli misa: ne sia: i.
All the people gathered themselves together as one man into the wide place that was in front of the water gate; and they spoke to Ezra the scribe to bring the scroll of the Torah of Moses, which the LORD had commanded to Israel.
2 Amaiba: le, Esela da dunu ilia gilisi sogebi amoga buga gaguli misi. Gilisi da dunu, uda amola mano (mano da fonobahadi asigilaiba: le, sia: dawa: i, amo fawane da misi).
Ezra the priest brought the law before the assembly, both men and women, and all who could hear with understanding, on the first day of the seventh month.
3 Amalalu, sogebi Hano Logo Ga: su gadenene, amo ganodini, e da ilima sema idili iasu. Hahabega idi amo idilaloba daeya doaga: i, amola ilia huluane da ha: giwane nabi.
He read from it before the wide place that was in front of the water gate from early morning until midday, in the presence of the men and the women, and of those who could understand. The ears of all the people were attentive to the scroll of the Torah.
4 Esela da dunu aligila heda: ma: ne fafai ilia da ea sia: nabimusa: gagui amo da: iya aligila heda: i. Dunu mogili da ea lobodafadili lelu, amo, Ma: didaia, Sima, Anaia, Iulaia, Hiligaia amola Ma: iasiai. Amola eno da ea lobo fofadidili lelu, amo, Bida: iya, Misa: iele, Ma: legaia, Ha: isiame, Ha: siabadana, Segalaia amola Misiala: me.
Ezra the scribe stood on a pulpit of wood, which they had made for the purpose; and beside him stood Mattithiah, Shema, Anaiah, Uriah, Hilkiah, and Maaseiah, on his right hand; and on his left hand, Pedaiah, Mishael, Malchijah, Hashum, Hashbaddanah, Zechariah, and Meshullam.
5 Esela da heda: ma: ne fafai amoga fila heda: le, dunu huluane osoboga hagudu fili ba: le gadoi. E da buga houga: iba: le, ilia huluane wa: legadoi.
Ezra opened the book in the sight of all the people (for he was above all the people), and when he opened it, all the people stood up.
6 Esela, da amane sia: i, “Hina Gode Bagadedafa Ema nodoma!” Amalalu, dunu huluane da ilia lobo ligia gadole, “Ama! Ama!” ilia da sia: i. Amalalu, ilia da muguni bugili, ilia odagi osoboga digila sa: i.
Then Ezra blessed the LORD, the great God. All the people answered, “Amen, Amen,” with the lifting up of their hands. They bowed their heads, and worshiped the LORD with their faces to the ground.
7 Amalalu, ilia da wa: legadole lelu. Lifai dunu da sema amo ilia bai ilima olelei. Sema bai olelesu dunu da Yesiua, Ba: inai, Sielibaia, Ya: imine, A:gabe, Sia: bidai, Houda: ia, Ma: iasiai, Gelida, A:salaia, Yosaba: de, Ha: ina: ne amola Bila: ia.
Also Yeshua, Bani, Sherebiah, Jamin, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodiah, Maaseiah, Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Hanan, Pelaiah, and the Levites, caused the people to understand the law; and the people stayed in their place.
8 Ilia da Gode Ea sema buga ganodini dedei amo idilalu, amola dunu huluane noga: le dawa: ma: ne, amo ea bai ilima gebewane olelei.
They read in the book, in the law of God, distinctly; and they gave the sense, so that they understood the reading.
9 Be dunu bagohame da sema sia: nababeba: le, ilia da gogosia: iwane dinanu. Amaiba: le, eagene ouligisu dunu amo Nihemaia, gobele salasu dunu, sema bagade dawa: su dunu Esela amola Lifai dunu amo da sema ea bai olelesu dunu amola amo da dunu huluanema amane sia: i, “Wali eso da Hina Gode Ea hadigi eso. Amaiba: le, dilia gogosiane mae dinanoma.
Nehemiah, who was the governor, Ezra the priest and scribe, and the Levites who taught the people said to all the people, “Today is holy to the LORD your God. Don’t mourn, nor weep.” For all the people wept when they heard the words of the law.
10 Wali dilia diasuga asili, nodone ha: i manu bagade moma amola nowa dunu da ha: i manu hame galea, ilima ha: i manu amola waini sagoma. Wali eso da Hina Gode Ea hadigi eso. Gode da dilima hahawane hou iabeba: le, dilia da gasa lamu.”
Then he said to them, “Go your way. Eat the fat, drink the sweet, and send portions to him for whom nothing is prepared, for today is holy to our Lord. Don’t be grieved, for the joy of the LORD is your strength.”
11 Lifai dunu da dunu huluane dogo denisima: ne adodola lale, ilia da Gode Ea hadigi esoga mae da: i dioma: ne sia: nanu.
So the Levites calmed all the people, saying, “Hold your peace, for the day is holy. Don’t be grieved.”
12 Amaiba: le, dunu huluane da ilia diasuga asili, ha: i manu gilisili hahawane mai amola hame gagui dunu ilima ha: i manu amola waini sagoi. Bai ilia da sema buga dedei ilima idili i, amo ea bai noga: le nabi.
All the people went their way to eat, to drink, to send portions, and to celebrate, because they had understood the words that were declared to them.
13 Golale, hahabe, fi ouligisu dunu, gobele salasu dunu amola Lifai dunu ilia da sema ea olelesu noga: le nabima: ne, Esela ba: musa: asi.
On the second day, the heads of fathers’ households of all the people, the priests, and the Levites were gathered together to Ezra the scribe, to study the words of the law.
14 Sema amo Gode da Mousesema i, amo ganodini Gode da Isala: ili dunu da Sogega Fasela Diasuga Lolo Nabe hamonoba, ilia da gadili fasela diasu ganodini esaloma: ne sia: i, amo sema ilia da ba: i.
They found written in the Torah how the LORD had commanded by Moses that the children of Israel should dwell in booths in the feast of the seventh month;
15 Amaiba: le ilia da sia: amo Yelusaleme moilai amola moilai huluane Isala: ili soge ganodini galu, amo sia: adole iasi, “Agolo sogega asili, ifa amo ‘baine’, ‘olife’, gumudi amola ifa eno, amo ifa ea amoda amola lubi lidila masa. Amola amoga dilia sogega fasela diasu, Gode Ea sema dedei olelei defele gaguma.”
and that they should publish and proclaim in all their cities and in Jerusalem, saying, “Go out to the mountain, and get olive branches, branches of wild olive, myrtle branches, palm branches, and branches of thick trees, to make temporary shelters, as it is written.”
16 Amaiba: le, dunu huluane da ifa amoda lale, fasela diasu gagui. Ilia da ilia diasu fila ahoasu, ilia diasu gagoi amola Debolo gagoi sogebi Hano Logo Ga: su gadenene amola Ifala: ime Logo Ga: su gadenene amola amo sogebi huluane amoga fasela diasu gagui.
So the people went out and brought them, and made themselves temporary shelters, everyone on the roof of his house, in their courts, in the courts of God’s house, in the wide place of the water gate, and in the wide place of Ephraim’s gate.
17 Dunu huluane musa: mugululi asili buhagi dunu, ilia da fasela diasu gaguli, amo ganodini esalu. Yosiua (Nane egefe) ea eso amoga musa: Isala: ili dunu da amo hou hamosu. Be fa: no ilia hame hamosu. Wali bu degabo hamobeba: le, dunu huluane da fofogadigili, hahawane bagade ba: i.
All the assembly of those who had come back out of the captivity made temporary shelters and lived in the temporary shelters, for since the days of Joshua the son of Nun to that day the children of Israel had not done so. There was very great gladness.
18 Lolo nabe eso magobo amoga ilia gilisisu amoga Gode Ea sema dedei eso huluane idisu. Ilia da amo gilisisu eso fesuale hahawane hamosu. Amola eso godo amoga ilia da Lolo Nabe ga: simusa: gilisisu bagade hamoi. Ilia da Gode Ea Sema dedei amo defele hamoi.
Also day by day, from the first day to the last day, he read in the scroll of the Torah of God. They kept the feast seven days; and on the eighth day was a solemn assembly, according to the ordinance.
