Nehemia 9

1 E odiechiengʼ mar piero ariyo gangʼwen mar dweno, jo-Israel nochokore kanyakla, ka gitweyo chiemo kendo ka girwako pien gugru ka gibuko wiyegi gi buru.

Forsothe in the foure and twentithe dai of this monethe, the sones of Israel camen togidere in fastyng,

2 Jogo ma jo-Israel hie nopogore moa kuom jopinje mamoko. Negichungʼ ma gihulo richogi kod timbe mag anjawo mag kweregi.

and in sackis, and `erthe was on hem. And the seed of the sones of Israel was departid fro ech alien sone. And thei stoden bifor the Lord, and knoulechiden her synnes, and the wickidnessis of her fadris.

3 Negichungʼ kanyo kendo ne gisomo Kitabu mar Chik mar Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachgi kuom seche adek, kendo ne gihulo richogi ka gipako Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachgi kuom seche adek mamoko.

And thei risiden togidere to stonde; and thei redden in the book of the lawe of `her Lord God fouresithis in the dai, and fouresithis in the niyt; thei knoulechiden, and herieden `her Lord God.

4 Jo-Lawi mane ochungʼ e raidhi kaywak matek ni Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachgi ne gin, Jeshua, Bani, Kadmiel, Shebania, Buni, Sherebia, Bani kod Kenani.

Forsothe `thei risiden on the degree, of dekenes, Jesuy, and Bany, Cedynyel, Remmy, Abany, Sarabie, Bany, and Chanany.

5 To jo-Lawi kaka, Jeshua, Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabneya, Sherebia, Hodia, Shebania kod Pethahia nowacho niya, “Chungʼuru malo mondo upak Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu mantiere mochwere manyaka chiengʼ.” “Ogwedh nyingi man-gi duongʼ, kendo mad tingʼe malo moloyo gweth kod pak duto.

And the dekenes crieden with grete vois to her Lord God. And Jesue, and Cedyniel, Bonny, Assebie, Serebie, Arabie, Odaie, Sebua, and Facaia, seiden, Rise ye, and blesse ye `youre Lord God fro without bigynnyng and til in to with outen ende; and blesse thei the hiye name of thi glorie in al blessyng and preysyng.

6 In kende e Jehova Nyasaye. Ne ichweyo polo nyaka polo man malo mogik, to gi gik moko duto manie iye, gi piny to gi gik moko duto man kuome, nembe kod gik moko duto manie igi. Ichiwo ngima ne gik moko duto, kendo jopolo pakoi.

And Esdras seide, Thou thi silf, Lord, art aloone; thou madist heuene and the heuene of heuenes, and al the oost of tho heuenes; thou madist the erthe and alle thingis that ben there ynne; `thou madist the sees and alle thingis that ben in tho; and thou quikenyst alle these thingis; and the oost of heuene worschipith thee.

7 “In e Jehova Nyasaye, mane oyiero Abram mi igole oa Ur mar jo-Kaldea bangʼe imiye nying ni Ibrahim.

Thou thi silf art the Lord God, that chesidist Abram, and leddist hym out of the fier of Caldeis, and settidist his name Abraham;

8 Ne iyudo ka en ngʼat ma ja-adiera e nyimi, kendo ne iloso kode singruok ni inimi nyikwaye piny jo-Kanaan, jo-Hiti, jo-Amor, jo-Perizi, jo-Jebus, kod jo-Girgash. Iserito singruok marino nikech in ja-ratiro.

and foundist his herte feithful bifor thee, and thou hast smyte with hym a boond of pees, that thou woldist yyue to hym the lond of Cananei, of Ethei, of Euey, and of Ammorrei, and of Pherezei, and of Jebuzei, and of Gergesei, that thou woldist yyue it to his seed; and thou hast fillid thi wordis, for thou art iust.

9 “Ne ineno kaka kwerewa nosandore e piny Misri; kendo ne iwinjo ywakgi kane gichopo e Nam Makwar.

And thou hast seyn the turment of oure fadris in Egipt, and thou herdist the cry of hem on the reed see.

10 Ne ioro ranyisi mag honni kod gik miwuoro ne Farao, kendo kuom jotende duto kod jopinyni duto, nimar ne ingʼeyo kaka jo-Misri ne tiyo jowa githuon. Ne iloso nyingi, ma pod en kamano nyaka chil kawuono.

And thou hast youe signes and grete wondris in Farao, and in alle hise seruauntis, and in al the puple of that lond; for thou knowist, that thei diden proudli ayens oure fadris; and thou madist to thee a name, as also in this dai.

11 Ne ibaro nam makwar ka gineno, mondo ne mi gikal kama otwo, makmana jogo mane lawogi ne inyumo e bwo nam, mana kaka kidi modir e ataro mar pi.

And thou departidist the see bifor hem, and thei passiden thorou the `myddis of the see in the drie place; forsothe thou castidist doun the pursueris of hem into depthe, as a stoon in strong watris.

12 Godiechiengʼ ne itelonegi gi bor polo, to gotieno to ne itelonegi gi mach makakni mondo omigi ler e wangʼ yo kama ne giwuothoe.

And in a piler of cloude thou were the ledere of hem bi dai, and in a piler of fier bi nyyt, that the weie, bi which thei entriden, schulde appere to hem.

13 “Ne ilor e Got Sinai; mane iwuoyo kodgi gie polo. Ne imiyogi puonj kod chike makare kendo madiera kendo ne imiyogi puonj maber.

Also thou camest doun at the hil of Synai, and spakist with hem fro heuene, and thou yauest to hem riytful domes, and the lawe of trewthe, cerymonyes, and goode comaundementis.

14 Ne imiyo gingʼeyo Sabato-ni maler mi imiyogi chike, kod buche kokalo kuom jatichni Musa.

And thou schewidist to hem an halewid sabat; and thou comaundidist `to hem comaundementis, and cerymonyes, and lawe, in the hond of Moises, thi seruaunt.

15 Ka kech ne kayogi to ne imiyogi makati koa e polo kendo ka riyo noloyogi to ne ikelo pi koa e kor lwanda; bende ne inyisogi mondo gidhi gikaw pinyno mane isesingo kikwongʼori ni ibiro miyogi.

Also thou yauest to hem breed fro heuene in her hungur; and thou leddist out of the stoon watir to hem thirstinge; and thou seidist to hem, that thei schulden entre, and haue in possessioun the lond, on which lond thou reisidist thin hond, that thou schuldist yyue it to hem.

16 “To kwerewa, nobedo jongʼayi kendo joma tokgi tek, mine ok giluoro chikegi.

But `thei and oure fadris diden proudli, and maden hard her nollis, and herden not thi comaundementis.

17 Negitamore winji kendo ne ok giparo honni mane itimo e diergi. Tokgi nobedo matek kendo e ngʼanyo margino ne giyiero jatelo mondo gidog gibed wasumbini. To in Nyasaye maweyone ji richogi, ma jangʼwono kendo maneno ne ji lit, iyi bende ok wangʼ piyo kendo hera mari ogundho.

And thei nolden here; and thei hadden not mynde of thi merueils, which thou haddist do to hem; and thei maden hard her nollis; and thei yauen the heed, that thei `weren al turned to her seruage as bi strijf; but thou art God helpful, meke, and merciful, abidynge longe, `ether pacient, and of myche merciful doyng, and forsokist not hem;

18 Omiyo ne ok ijwangʼogi kata obedo nine gitimo timbe mag anjawo, ka giloso kido mar nyaroya mi giwacho niya, ‘Ma en nyasachu, mane ogolou e piny Misri.’

and sotheli whanne thei hadden maad to hem a yotun calf, as bi strijf, and hadden seid, This is thi God, that `ledde thee out of Egipt, and thei diden grete blasfemyes.

19 “Nikech ngʼwono mari mathoth ne ok ijwangʼogi e thim. Godiechiengʼ, bor polo nodhi nyime ka telonegi e yo, to gotieno mach makakni nomedo menyonegi kama giluwo.

But thou in thi many mercyes leftist not hem in deseert; for a piler of cloude yede not awei fro hem bi the dai, that it schulde lede hem in to the weie; and a piler of fier yede not awei `fro hem bi nyyt, that it schulde schewe to hem the weie, bi which thei schulden entre.

20 Ne ichiwo Roho mari maber mondo opuonjgi. Ne ok ituonogi manna, kendo ne imiyogi pi kuom riyo mane oloyogi.

And thou yauest to hem thi good Spirit, that tauyte hem; and thou forbedist not thin aungels mete fro her mouth, and thou yauest to hem water in thirst.

21 Ne iritogi e thim kuom higni piero angʼwen; onge gimoro amora mane gionge godo, lepgi ne ok oti kata tiendegi bende ne ok okuot.

Fourti yeer thou feddist hem in deseert, and no thing failide to hem; her clothis wexiden not elde, and her feet weren not hirt.

22 “Ne imiyogi loyo pinyruodhi kod ogendini, mi ipogogi nyaka kuonde motimo ongoro. Negikawo piny Sihon ma ruodh Heshbon kod piny Og ma ruodh Bashan.

And thou yauest to hem rewmes, and puplis; and thou departidist lottis, `ether eritagis, to hem, and thei hadden in possessioun the lond of Seon, and the lond of the kyng of Esebon, and the lond of Og, kyng of Basan.

23 Ne imiyo yawuotgi obedo mangʼeny ka sulwe manie lwasi, mi ikelogi nyaka e piny mane isingone kweregi mondo odhiye kendo okaw.

And thou multipliedist the sones of hem, as the sterris of heuene; and thou brouytist hem to the lond, of which thou seidist to her fadris, that thei schulden entre, and holde it in possessioun.

24 Yawuotgi nodonjo mi gikawo pinyno. Niloyonegi jo-Kanaan, mane odak e pinyno; ne ichiwonegi jo-Kanaan, kaachiel gi ruodhi mag-gi gi jopinyno, mondo gitimgi kaka bernegi.

And the sones of Israel camen, and hadden the lond in possessioun; and bifor hem thou madist low the dwellers of the lond, Cananeis; and thou yauest hem in to the hondis of the sones of Israel, and the kyngis of hem, and the puplis of the lond, that thei diden to hem, as it pleside hem.

25 Negikawo mier madongo mochiel motegno gohinga kod lowo mamiyo; bende negikawo udi mopongʼ gi gik mangʼeny mabeyo, sokni mane osekuny, puothe mzabibu, gi mag zeituni kod yiende mag olembe mangʼeny. Negichiemo ma giyiengʼ kendo negibedo gi mor mogundho; negiil kuom berni maduongʼ mane itimonegi.

And thei token citees maad strong, and fat erthe; and thei hadden in possessioun housis fulle of alle goodis, cisternes maad of othere men, vineris, and places of olyues, and many apple trees. And thei eeten, and weren fillid, and weren maad fat; and hadden plentee of ritchessis `in thi greet goodnesse.

26 “Kata kamano negibedo maonge luor mi gingʼanyoni; kendo wigi nowil kod chikeni. Neginego jonabi magi; mane osebedo ka puonjogi mondo gidwog iri; negitimo timbe maricho miwuoro.

Sotheli thei terriden thee to wrathfulnesse, and yeden awei fro thee, and castiden awei thi lawe bihynde her backis; and thei killiden thi prophetis, that witnessiden to hem, that thei schulden turne ayen to thee; and thei diden grete blasfemyes.

27 Omiyo ne ichiwogi e lwet wasikgi, mane omiyogi tingʼ mapek. To kane tingʼ mapek oromogi ne giywakni. Ne iwinjogi koa e polo, kendo gi ngʼwononi mogundho ne imiyogi jokony, mane oresogi giaye lwet wasikgi.

And thou yauest hem in to the hond of her enemyes; and thei turmentiden hem; and in the tyme of her tribulacioun thei crieden to thee; and thou herdist them fro heuyn, and bi thi many merciful doyngis thou yauest hem sauyours, that sauyden hem fro the hond of her enemyes.

28 “To apoya nono kane giseyudo yweyo, negitimo gima ok owinjore e nyim wangʼi. Bangʼe ne ijwangʼogi e lwet wasikgi mondo omi wasikgigo obed ruodhgi. To kane gichak giywakni kendo ne iwinjogi ka in e polo, to e ngʼwononi mogundho ne iresogi kuom kinde ka kinde.

And whanne thei hadden restid, thei turneden ayen to do yuel in thi siyt; and thou forsokist hem in the hond of her enemyes, and enemyes hadden hem in possessioun; and thei weren conuertid, and thei crieden to thee; forsothe thou herdist hem fro heuene, and delyueridist hem `in thi mercies in many tymes.

29 “Ne isiemogi mondo gidwog kuom chikni, to negibedo jongʼayi kendo ma ok oluoro chikeni. Negitimo richo kuom chayo puonj magi, maka ngʼato orito to kelone ngima. Negilokore giweyi ka tokgi tek ta mi ok girito chikeni.

And thou witnessidist to hem, that thei schulden turne ayen to thi lawe; but thei diden proudli, and herden not thin heestis, and synneden in thi domes, whiche a man that schal do schal lyue in tho; and thei yauen the schuldre goynge awei, and thei maden hard her nol.

30 Kuom higni mangʼeny ne ihori kodgi. Kuom Roho mari ne ipuonjori kodgi kokalo kuom jonabi magi. Kata kamano, ne ok gichiko itgi malongʼo, omiyo ne ichiwogi ne joma ok jo-Yahudi.

And thou drowist along many yeeris on hem, and thou witnessidist to hem in thi Spirit bi the hond of thi prophetis; and thei herden not; and thou yauest hem in to the hond of the puplis of londis.

31 To e ngʼwono mari makende ne ok itiekogi chuth bende ne ok ijwangʼogi, nikech in Nyasaye ma jangʼwono kendo makecho joge.

But in thi mercies ful manye thou madist not hem in to wastyng, nethir thou forsokist hem; for thou art God of merciful doynges, and meke.

32 “Emomiyo koro sani, yaye Nyasachwa, in e Nyasaye maduongʼ, Nyasaye nyakalaga kendo Nyasaye Maratego bende in e Nyasaye marito singruokne mar hera. Kik ikaw chandruok mwanenogi mayot; chandruokgi osebiro kuomwa, kuom ruodhi magwa kod jotendwa, kuom jodolo magwa kod jonabi, kuom kwerewa kod jogi duto, kochakore ndalo loch mag ruodhi jo-Asuria nyaka kawuono.

Now therfor, oure Lord God, greet God, strong, and ferdful, kepynge couenaunt and merci, turne thou not awei thi face in al the trauel that foond vs, oure kyngis, and oure princes, and oure fadris, and oure preestis, and oure profetis, and al thi puple, fro the daies of kyng Assur til to this dai.

33 Kuom mago duto mosetimorenwa, isebedo jangʼad bura makare; isebedo ja-adiera, ka wan ne watimo marach.

And thou art iust in alle thingis, that camen on vs, for thou didist trewthe to vs; but we han do wickidli.

34 Ruodhi magwa, jotendwa, jodolo mawa kod kwerewa ne ok oluwo chikni; ne ok gichiko itgi ne puonj magi kata siem mane imiyogi.

Oure kyngis, and oure princes, oure prestis, and fadris `diden not thi lawe; and thei perseyueden not thin heestis and witnessyngis, whiche thou witnessidist in hem.

35 Kata ndalo mane pod gin e bwo loch ruodhigi giwegi, kane pod gichamo mwandu mogundho mane imiyogi kendo gidak e piny malach kendo momewo mane ipogonegi, ne ok gitini bende ne ok giweyo timbegi maricho.

And thei in her good rewmes, and in thi myche goodnesse, which thou yauest to hem, and in the largest lond and fat, whych thou haddist youe in the siyt of hem, serueden not thee, nether turneden ayen fro her werste studies.

36 “To koro wan wasumbini e piny mane imiyo kwerewa mondo omi gicham olembe moa kanyo kod gik moko mabeyo monyago.

Lo! we `vs silf ben thrallis to dai; and the lond which thou yauest to oure fadris, that thei schulden ete the breed therof, and the goodis that ben therof, `is thral; and we `vs silf ben thrallis, `ethir boonde men, in that lond.

37 Gik moko ma pinywani nyago dhi mana ne ruodhi miketo mondo otiwa nikech richowa. Gin gi teko kuom dendwa kendo gitimo mana gima gihero ni jambwa, to wan, to wan gi midhiero miwuoro.

And the fruytis therof ben multiplied to kyngis, whiche thou hast set on vs for oure synnes; and thei ben lordis of oure bodies, and of oure beestis, bi her wille, and we ben in greet tribulacioun.

38 “Kuom magi duto, waketo winjruok motweyowa, kwandiko wechegi piny, kendo jotendwa, gi jo-Lawi mawa kod jodolo mawa keto lwetgi kaka joneno.”

Therfor on alle these thingis we `vs silf smyten and writen boond of pees, and oure princes, oure dekenes, and oure prestis aseelen.
