Nehemiah 13
1 On that day they read in the book of Moses in the audience of the people, and in it was found written that an Ammonite and a Moabite should not enter into the assembly of God forever,
Iti dayta nga aldaw, imbasa dagiti padi ti Libro ni Moises a mangmangngeg dagiti tattao. Naduktalanda a nakasurat iti daytoy a nasken a saan a makitipon dagiti Ammonita wenno Moabita iti taripnong ti Dios, iti agnanayon.
2 because they did not meet the sons of Israel with bread and with water, but hired Balaam against them, to curse them. However our God turned the curse into a blessing.
Gapu ta saanda a nangted iti tinapay ken danum kadagiti tattao ti Israel, ngem ketdi tinangdananda ni Balaam a mangilunod iti Israel. Nupay kasta, pinagbalin ti Diostayo ti lunod a bendision.
3 And it came to pass, when they had heard the law, that they separated from Israel all the mixed multitude.
Apaman a nangngegda ti linteg, inlasinda dagiti amin a gangannaet manipud iti Israel.
4 Now before this, Eliashib the priest, who was appointed over the chambers of the house of our God, being allied to Tobiah,
Ita, sakbay a nadutokan ni Eliasib a padi a mangaywan kadagiti siled a pagiduldulinan iti balay ti Diostayo. Gayyemnan ni Tobias.
5 had prepared for him a great chamber, where formerly they laid the meal offerings, the frankincense, and the vessels, and the tithes of the grain, the new wine, and the oil, which were given by commandment to the Levites, and the singers, and the porters, and the heave offerings for the priests.
Insagana ni Eliasib ti dakkel a siled a pagiduldulinan para kenni Tobias, a sigud a pagikabkabilanda kadagiti daton a bukbukel, kadagiti insenso, kadagiti alikamen, ken kadagiti apagkapullo ti trigo, baro nga arak, ken ti lana, a nairanta para kadagiti Levita, kadagiti kumakanta, kadagiti guardia ti ruangan, ken kadagiti kontribusion para kadagiti papadi.
6 But in all this time I was not at Jerusalem, for in the thirty-second year of Artaxerxes king of Babylon I went to the king. And after certain days I asked leave of the king,
Ngem iti tiempo a mapaspasamak amin dagitoy, awanak idiay Jerusalem. Gapu ta iti maikatallopulo ket dua a tawen a panagari ni Artaxerxes iti Babilonia, napanak iti ayan ti ari. Saan a nagbayag, nagkiddawak iti ari iti pammalubos a pumanaw,
7 and I came to Jerusalem, and understood the evil that Eliashib had done for Tobiah, in preparing him a chamber in the courts of the house of God.
ket nagsubliak idiay Jerusalem. Natakuatak ti dakes nga inaramid ni Eliasib a panangipaaramatna kenni Tobias iti siled a pagiduldulinan iti paraangan iti balay ti Dios.
8 And it grieved me greatly. Therefore I cast forth all the household stuff of Tobiah out of the chamber.
Kasta unay ti ungetko ket impurruakko dagiti alikamen ni Tobias iti ruar ti siled a pagiduldulinan.
9 Then I commanded, and they cleansed the chambers. And there I brought again the vessels of the house of God, with the meal offerings and the frankincense.
Imbilinko nga aramidenda ti seremonia ti pannakadalus kadagiti siled a pagiduldulinan, ket insublik kadagitoy dagiti alikamen iti balay ti Dios, dagiti daton a trigo, ken ti insenso.
10 And I perceived that the portions of the Levites had not been given them, so that the Levites and the singers, who did the work, had fled each one to his field.
Ken natakuatak a saan a naibunong kadagiti Levita dagiti bingay a nairanta a maited kadakuada, isu a dagus a pinanawanda ti templo, ket nagturong ti tunggal maysa iti talonna, kasta met ti inaramid dagiti kumakanta nga agserserbi.
11 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.
Isu nga inungtak dagiti opisial ket kinunak kadakuada, “Apayen a nabaybay-an ti balay ti Dios?” Inummongko ida ken pinaggianko ida kadagiti kampoda.
12 Then all Judah brought the tithe of the grain and the new wine and the oil to the treasuries.
Ket inyeg dagiti amin a taga-Juda ti apagkapullo ti trigo, baro nga arak, ken ti lana kadagiti siled a pagiduldulinan.
13 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 counted faithful, and their business was to distribute to their brothers.
Insaadko a kas tresurero kadagiti siled a pagiduldulinan da Selemias a padi, Zadok nga eskriba, ken Pedaias a nagtaud iti Levita. Sumaruno kadakuada ni Hanan a putot ni Zaccur a putot ni Matanias, gapu ta ammok a mapagtalkak ida. Ti trabahoda ket agibunong kadagiti abasto kadagiti padada nga agtrabtrabaho.
14 Remember me, O my God, concerning this, and do not wipe out my good deeds that I have done for the house of my God, and for the observances of it.
Laglagipem, O Diosko ti maipapan iti daytoy, ken saanmo koma a punasen dagiti nasasayaat nga inaramidko para iti balay ti Diosko ken dagiti trabaho iti daytoy.
15 In those days I saw in Judah some men treading wine-presses on the sabbath, and bringing in sheaves, and loading donkeys therewith, 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 in which they sold foods.
Kadidiay nga aldaw, nakakitaak kadagiti tattao idiay Juda nga agpespespes iti ubas iti Aldaw a Panaginana ken agaw-awitda kadagiti trigo ket ilugluganda dagitoy kadagiti asnoda, ken kasta met ti arak, ubas, igos, ken amin a kita dagiti nadagsen a karga sada inyeg idiay Jerusalem iti Aldaw a Panaginana. Nagririak ta aglaklakoda kadagiti taraon iti dayta nga aldaw.
16 There dwelt men of Tyre also in it who brought in fish, and all manner of wares, and sold on the sabbath to the sons of Judah, and in Jerusalem.
Nagisangpet dagiti lallaki a taga-Tiro nga agnanaed idiay Jerusalem iti lames ken amin a kita ti magatang, ket inlakoda dagitoy kadagiti tattao ti Juda ken iti entero a siudad iti Aldaw a Panaginana!
17 Then I contended with the ranking men of Judah, and said to them, What evil thing is this that ye do, and profane the sabbath day?
Binabalawko ngarud dagiti pangulo ti Juda, “Ania daytoy a dakes nga ar-aramidenyo, saanyo a raraemen ti Aldaw a Panaginana?
18 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.
Saan kadi nga inaramid dagiti ammayo daytoy? Ken saan kadi nga inyeg ti Diostayo amin dagitoy a dakes kadatayo ken iti daytoy a siudad? Ita, ad-adda pay a pagpungpungtotenyo ti Dios iti Israel gapu iti saanyo a panagraem iti Aldaw a Panaginana.”
19 And it came to pass that, when the gates of Jerusalem began to be dark before the sabbath, I commanded that the doors should be shut, and commanded that they should not be opened till after the sabbath. And I set some of my servants over the gates that there should be no burden brought in on the sabbath day.
Apaman a sumipnget iti ruangan ti Jerusalem sakbay a mangrugi ti Aldaw a Panaginana, imbilinko a marikpan dagiti ridaw ken nasken a saan a maluktan dagitoy agingga a malpas ti Aldaw a Panaginana. Pinagbantayko dagiti sumagmamano kadagiti adipenko iti ruangan tapno awan ti karga a maiyuneg iti Aldaw a Panaginana.
20 So the merchants and sellers of all kind of wares lodged outside Jerusalem once or twice.
Naminsan wenno namindua a nagkampo dagiti komersiante ken dagiti aglaklako iti amin a kita ti tagilako iti ruar ti Jerusalem.
21 Then I testified against them, and said to them, Why do ye lodge outside the wall? If ye do so again, I will lay hands on you. From that time forth they came no more on the sabbath.
Ngem binallaagak ida, “Apay ngay nga agkamkampokayo iti ruar ti pader? No aramidenyonto pay daytoy, pagtalawenkayo!” Manipud iti dayta a tiempo saandan nga immay iti Aldaw a Panaginana.
22 And I commanded the Levites that they should purify themselves, and that they should come and keep the gates, to sanctify the sabbath day. Remember to me, O my God, this also, and spare me according to the greatness of thy loving kindness.
Ken binilinko dagiti Levita nga aramidenda ti seremonia ti pannakadalusda, sada mapan guardiaan dagiti ruangan, tapno mangilin ti Aldaw a Panaginana. Laglagipem met daytoy, O Diosko, ken kaassiannak gapu iti kinapudnom iti tulagmo kaniak.
23 In those days also I saw the Jews who had married women of Ashdod, of Ammon, and of Moab.
Kadagidiay nga aldaw, nakitak pay dagiti Judio a nakiasawa kadagiti babbai a taga-Asdod, Ammon ken Moab.
24 And their sons spoke half in the speech of Ashdod, and could not speak in the Jews' language, but according to the language of each people.
Kagudua ti bilang dagiti annakda ti agsasao iti pagsasao ti Asdod, ngem saanda a makapagsao iti pagsasao ti Juda, ti laeng pagsasao dagiti tattao a pagnanaedanda.
25 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 for your sons, or for yourselves.
Ket inungtak ida, inlunodko ida, kinabilko ti dadduma kadakuada ken pinarutko dagiti bubuokda. Pinagsapatak ida iti sangoanan ti Dios, kinunak, “Saanyo ipaasawa dagiti annakyo a babbai kadagiti annakda a lallaki, wenno ipaasawa dagiti annakda a babbai kadagiti annakyo a lallaki, wenno saanyo nga asawaen dagiti annakda a babbai.
26 Did not Solomon king of Israel sin by these things? Yet there was no king like him among many nations, and he was beloved of his God, and God made him king over all Israel. Nevertheless foreign women caused even him to sin.
Saan kadi a dagitoy a babbai ti nakaigapuan ti panagbasol ni Solomon nga ari ti Israel? Kadagiti adu a nasion awan ti ari a kas kenkuana, ken inayat isuna ti Diosna. Ken pinagturay ti Dios isuna nga ari iti entero nga Israel. Uray no kasta, dagiti ganggannaet nga assawana ti makagapu a nagbasol isuna.
27 Shall we then hearken to you to do all this great evil, to trespass against our God in marrying foreign women?
Dumngegkami kadi kadakayo ket aramidenmi amin daytoy a kinadakes ken agsukirkami iti Dios babaen iti panangasawami kadagiti ganggannaet a babbai?”
28 And one of the sons of Joiada, the son of Eliashib the high priest, was son-in-law to Sanballat the Horonite. Therefore I chased him from me.
Maysa kadagiti annak ni Joyada a putot ni Eliasib a nangato a padi ket manugang ni Sanballat a Horonita. Pinapanawko ngarud isuna idiay Jerusalem.
29 Remember them, O my God, because they have defiled the priesthood, and the covenant of the priesthood, and of the Levites.
Laglagipem ida O, Diosko, gapu iti panangtulawda iti akem a kinapadi, ken iti katulagan ti kinapadi ken dagiti Levita.
30 Thus I cleansed them from all foreigners, and appointed charges for the priests and for the Levites, each one in his work,
Ket inaramidko ti seremonia ti pannakadalusda kadagiti amin a ganggannaet, ken imbagak dagiti pagrebbengan dagiti padi ken dagiti Levita, ti tunggal maysa iti trabahona.
31 and for the wood offering, at times appointed, and for the first-fruits. Remember me, O my God, for good.
Impaayko dagiti kayo a pangpuor iti daton iti umno a tiempo ken dagiti umuna a bunga. Laglagipennak, O Diosko, para iti pagsayaatak.
