Nehemiah 7
1 Rapannaw ka pathoup awh teh longkhanaw ka cum awh hnukkhu, longkha karingkung hoi la kasakkung lah Levih miphunnaw hah thaw ka poe.
Now when the wall was built and I had set up the doors, and the gatekeepers and the singers and the Levites were appointed,
2 Yuemkamcu lah kaawm ni teh Cathut ka taket e ransabawi Hananiah hoi ka nawngha Hanan teh Jerusalem ka uk sak.
I put my brother Hanani, and Hananiah the governor of the fortress, in charge of Jerusalem; for he was a faithful man and feared God above many.
3 Jerusalem longkhanaw teh kanî a tâco hoehnahlan vah paawng sak hanh. Tangmin lah karingkungnaw ni longkha kacaklah taren awh naseh. Hahoi khocanaw ni amamouh onae hmuen koehai thoseh, a imnaw koehoi thoseh ramveng awh naseh.
I said to them, “Don’t let the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun is hot; and while they stand guard, let them shut the doors, and you bar them; and appoint watches of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, everyone in his watch, with everyone near his house.”
4 Bangkongtetpawiteh, santoungnae koehoi, bout ban nateh, khopui teh akaw eiteh khothung kaawm e taminaw ayounca dawkvah, imnaw sak thai awh hoeh rah.
Now the city was wide and large; but the people were few therein, and the houses were not built.
5 Ka Cathut ni ka lungthung vah, bari e naw hoi lawkcengkungnaw hoi tamimaya a kaw teh, a tâconae patetlah min thut hanelah na dei pouh. Hahoi ahmaloe kabannaw kakhekungnaw min thutnae cauk hah ka hmu. Hot dawkvah hettelah thut e lah ao.
My God put into my heart to gather together the nobles, and the rulers, and the people, that they might be listed by genealogy. I found the book of the genealogy of those who came up at the first, and I found this written in it:
6 San dawk hrawi lah kaawm e, Babilon siangpahrang Nebukhadnezar ni hrawi lah kaawm niteh, san dawk hoi a tâco teh Jerusalem hoi Judah ram e amamouh onae koe bout ka ban ni teh kho ka sak e milunaw teh,
These are the children of the province who went up out of the captivity of those who had been carried away, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away, and who returned to Jerusalem and to Judah, everyone to his city,
