Nehemiah 12
1 Now these are the priests and the Levites that went up with Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua: Seraiah, Jeremiah, Ezra,
Isaan kunneen lubootaa fi Lewwota warra Zarubaabel ilma Sheʼaltiiʼeelii fi Iyyaasuu wajjin deebiʼanii dha: Seraayaa, Ermiyaas, Izraa,
2 Amariah, Malluch, Hattush,
Amariyaa, Maluuk, Haxuush,
3 Shecaniah, Rehum, Meremoth,
Shekaaniyaa, Rehuum, Mereemooti,
4 Iddo, Ginnethoi, Abijah,
Iddoo, Ginetoon, Abiyaa,
5 Mijamin, Maadiah, Bilgah,
Miyaamiin, Maʼaadiyaa, Bilgaa,
6 Shemaiah, and Joiarib, Jedaiah.
Shemaaʼiyaa, Yooyaariib, Yedaaʼiyaa,
7 Sallu, Amok, Hilkiah, Jedaiah. These were the chiefs of the priests and of their brethren in the days of Jeshua.
Saʼaaluu, Aamoq, Hilqiyaa fi Yedaaʼiyaa. Warri kun bara Iyyaasuu keessa hooggantoota lubootaatii fi obboloota isaanii turan.
8 Moreover the Levites: Jeshua, Binnui, Kadmiel, Sherebiah, Judah, [and] Mattaniah, who was over the thanksgiving, he and his brethren.
Lewwonni immoo Yeeshuuʼaa, Binuuyii, Qadmiiʼeel, Sheereebiyaa, Yihuudaa akkasumas Mataaniyaa isa obboloota isaa wajjin faarfannaa galataatti itti gaafatamaa ture sana turan.
9 Also Bakbukiah and Unno, their brethren, were over against them according to their offices.
Obboleeyyan isaanii Baqbuqiyaa fi Unniin yeroo tajaajilaatti fuullee isaanii dhadhaabachaa turan.
10 And Jeshua begat Joiakim, and Joiakim begat Eliashib, and Eliashib begat Joiada,
Iyyaasuun abbaa Yooyaaqiim; Yooyaaqiim abbaa Eliyaashiib; Eliyaashiib abbaa Yooyaadaa ti;
11 and Joiada begat Jonathan, and Jonathan begat Jaddua.
Yooyaadaan abbaa Yoonaataan; Yoonaataan abbaa Yaaduʼaa ti.
12 And in the days of Joiakim were priests, heads of fathers’ [houses]: of Seraiah, Meraiah; of Jeremiah, Hananiah;
Isaan kunneen bara Yooyaaqiim keessa abbootii maatiiwwan lubootaa turan: Maatii Seraayaa keessaa Meraayaa; maatii Ermiyaas keessaa Hanaaniyaa;
13 of Ezra, Meshullam; of Amariah, Jehohanan;

21 of Hilkiah, Hashabiah; of Jedaiah, Nethanel.
maatii Hilqiyaa keessaa Hashabiyaa; maatii Yedaaʼiyaa keessaa Naatnaaʼel.
22 As for the Levites, in the days of Eliashib, Joiada, and Johanan, and Jaddua, there were recorded the heads of fathers’ [houses]; also the priests, in the reign of Darius the Persian.
Abbootiin maatii Lewwotaa bara Eliyaashiib, Yooyaadaa, Yoohaanaanii fi bara Yaaduʼaa keessa akkasumas abbootiin maatii lubootaa bara mootummaa Daariyoos namicha Faares sanaa keessa galmeeffaman.
23 The sons of Levi, heads of fathers’ [houses], were written in the book of the chronicles, even until the days of Johanan the son of Eliashib.
Lewwonni warri abbootii maatii turan hamma bara Yoohaanaan ilma Eliyaashiibitti kitaaba seenaa keessatti galmeeffaman.
24 And the chiefs of the Levites: Hashabiah, Sherebiah, and Jeshua the son of Kadmiel, with their brethren over against them, to praise and give thanks, according to the commandment of David the man of God, watch next to watch.
Hangafoonni Lewwotaas Hashabiyaa, Sheereebiyaa, Yeeshuʼaa ilma Qadmiiʼeel akkasumas obboloota isaanii warra akkuma Daawit namni Waaqaa sun ajajetti faarfannaa fi galata dhiʼeessuudhaaf fuullee isaanii dhaabatanii gareen tokko garee kaan jalaa qabu sana turan.
25 Mattaniah, and Bakbukiah, Obadiah, Meshullam, Talmon, Akkub, were porters keeping the watch at the store-houses of the gates.
Mataaniyaan, Baqbuqiyaan, Obaadiyaan, Meshulaam, Talmoonii fi Aquub mankuusaalee karrawwan bira jiran eegu turan.
26 These were in the days of Joiakim the son of Jeshua, the son of Jozadak, and in the days of Nehemiah the governor, and of Ezra the priest the scribe.
Isaanis bara Yooyaaqiim ilma Iyyaasuu, ilma Yoozaadaaq keessa, bara Nahimiyaa bulchaa biyyaatii fi bara Izraa lubicha barreessaa sanaa keessa tajaajilaa turan.
27 And at the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem they sought the Levites out of all their places, to bring them to Jerusalem, to keep the dedication with gladness, both with thanksgivings, and with singing, with cymbals, psalteries, and with harps.
Yeroo eebba dallaa Yerusaalemitti Lewwonni akka faarfannaa galataatiin, kililleedhaan, baganaa fi kiraaraan ayyaana eebbaa sana gammachuun ayyaaneffataniif iddoo jiraatan hundaa barbaadamanii gara Yerusaalem fidaman.
28 And the sons of the singers gathered themselves together, both out of the plain round about Jerusalem, and from the villages of the Netophathites;
Faarfattoonnis biyya naannoo Yerusaalem jechuunis gandoota Netoofotaatii,
29 also from Beth-gilgal, and out of the fields of Geba and Azmaveth: for the singers had builded them villages round about Jerusalem.
Beet Gilgaalii, naannoo Gebaatii fi Azmaawetitti walitti fidaman; faarfattoonni naannoo Yerusaalemitti gandoota ofii isaanii ijaarratanii turaniitii.
30 And the priests and the Levites purified themselves; and they purified the people, and the gates, and the wall.
Luboonnii fi Lewwonnis erga akka seeraatti of qulqulleessanii booddee saba, karrawwanii fi dallaa sana qulqulleessan.
31 Then I brought up the princes of Judah upon the wall, and appointed two great companies that gave thanks and went in procession; [whereof one went] on the right hand upon the wall toward the dung gate:
Anis akka hooggantoonni Yihuudaa dallaatti ol baʼan nan godhe. Akkasumas akka isaan galata dhiʼeessaniif tuuta faarfattootaa lama nan ramade. Tuunni tokko karaa mirgaatiin dallaa irraan gara Karra Dikee dhaqe.
32 and after them went Hoshaiah, and half of the princes of Judah,
Hooshaʼiyaa fi hooggantoota Yihuudaa keessaa walakkaan,
33 and Azariah, Ezra, and Meshullam,
Azaariyaa, Izraa, Meshulaam,
34 Judah, and Benjamin, and Shemaiah, and Jeremiah,
Yihuudaa, Beniyaam, Shemaaʼiyaa fi Ermiyaas wajjin isaan duukaa buʼan;
35 and certain of the priests’ sons with trumpets: Zechariah the son of Jonathan, the son of Shemaiah, the son of Mattaniah, the son of Micaiah, the son of Zaccur, the son of Asaph;
akkasumas luboonni malakata qabatan tokko tokkoo fi Zakkaariyaas ilmi Yoonaataan, ilmi Shemaaʼiyaa, ilmi Mataaniyaa, Miikaayaa, ilmi Zakuur, ilmi Asaaf isaan duukaa buʼan;
36 and his brethren, Shemaiah, and Azarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethanel, and Judah, Hanani, with the musical instruments of David the man of God; and Ezra the scribe was before them.
amma illee obboloota isaa jechuunis Shemaaʼiyaan, Azariʼeel, Miilaalaayi, Gilaalayi, Maaʼayi, Naatnaaʼel, Yihuudaa fi Hanaaniim akkuma Daawit namni Waaqaa sun ajajetti meeshaa faarfannaa fudhatanii dhaqan. Izraan barreessaan sun immoo isaan hoogganaa ture.
37 And by the fountain gate, and straight before them, they went up by the stairs of the city of David, at the ascent of the wall, above the house of David, even unto the water gate eastward.
Isaanis Karra Burqaa biraa kaʼanii gulantaawwan Magaalaa Daawit iddoo dallaan ittiin ol kaʼu sanaan mana Daawit irraan qajeelanii gara Karra Bishaanii kan gama baʼa biiftuutti ol baʼan.
38 And the other company of them that gave thanks went to meet them, and I after them, with the half of the people, upon the wall, above the tower of the furnaces, even unto the broad wall,
Tuunni faarfattootaa lammaffaan immoo gara bitaatti qajeele. Anis gartokkee sabaa wajjin dallaa gubbaadhaan gara Gamoo ol dheeraa Iddoo Ibiddaatii fi Dallaa Balʼaatti isaan duukaa buʼe;
39 and above the gate of Ephraim, and by the old gate, and by the fish gate, and the tower of Hananel, and the tower of Hammeah, even unto the sheep gate: and they stood still in the gate of the guard.
akkasumas ani Karra Efreem irraan, karaa Karra Moofaa, karaa Karra Qurxummii, karaa Gamoo ol dheeraa Hanaaniʼeelii fi Karaa Gamoo ol dheeraa Dhibbaatiin hamma Karra Hoolotaatti isaan duukaa nan buʼe. Isaanis Karra Eegdotaa bira gaʼanii dhaabatan.
40 So stood the two companies of them that gave thanks in the house of God, and I, and the half of the rulers with me;
Tuunni faarfattootaa kan galata dhiʼeesse sun lachuu mana Waaqaa keessatti iddoo isaa qabate; anis qondaaltota gartokko wajjin iddoo nan qabadhe;
41 and the priests, Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Micaiah, Elioenai, Zechariah, and Hananiah, with trumpets;
amma illee luboonni jechuunis Eliiyaaqiim, Maʼaseyaan, Miiniyaamiin, Miikaayaan, Eliiyooʼeenayin, Zakkaariyaasii fi Hanaaniyaan malakata isaanii qabatanii
42 and Maaseiah, and Shemaiah, and Eleazar, and Uzzi, and Jehohanan, and Malchijah, and Elam, and Ezer. And the singers sang loud, with Jezrahiah their overseer.
Maʼaseyaan, Shemaaʼiyaan, Eleʼaazaar, Ooziin, Yehohaanaaniin, Malkiyaan, Eelaamii fi Eezer iddoo iddoo isaanii qabatan. Faarfattoonni immoo Yizrahiyaadhaan qajeelfamanii faarfatan.
43 And they offered great sacrifices that day, and rejoiced; for God had made them rejoice with great joy; and the women also and the children rejoiced: so that the joy of Jerusalem was heard even afar off.
Isaanis sababii Waaqni gammachuu guddaa isaaniif kenneef gaafas gammadaa aarsaa guddaa dhiʼeessan. Dubartoonnii fi ijoolleenis ni gammadan. Sagaleen gammachuu Yerusaalem keessaas fagootti dhagaʼame.
44 And on that day were men appointed over the chambers for the treasures, for the heave-offerings, for the first-fruits, and for the tithes, to gather into them, according to the fields of the cities, the portions appointed by the law for the priests and Levites: for Judah rejoiced for the priests and for the Levites that waited.
Yeroo sanatti namoonni mankuusaalee gumaachi, mataan midhaaniitii fi kennaan harka kudhan keessaa tokkoo itti galfamu irratti itti gaafatamtoota taʼanii muudaman. Isaanis lafa qotiisaa naannoo magaalaawwanitti argaman irraa qooda Seerri lubootaa fi Lewwotaaf ajaju sana fidanii mankuusaaleetti galchan; Yihuudaan lubootaa fi Lewwota tajaajilanitti gammadee tureetii.
45 And they kept the charge of their God, and the charge of the purification, and [so did] the singers and the porters, according to the commandment of David, and of Solomon his son.
Isaanis tajaajila Waaqa isaaniitii fi tajaajila sirna qulqullessuu sana akkuma faarfattoonnii fi eegdonni karraa godhan sana akkuma Daawitii fi ilmi isaa Solomoon ajajanitti raawwatan.
46 For in the days of David and Asaph of old there was a chief of the singers, and songs of praise and thanksgiving unto God.
Jabana durii bara Daawitii fi Asaaf keessa qajeelchitoota faarfattootaa, kan faarfannaa Waaqa leellisuutii fi kan Waaqa galateeffachuutu tureetii.
47 And all Israel in the days of Zerubbabel, and in the days of Nehemiah, gave the portions of the singers and the porters, as every day required: and they set apart [that which was] for the Levites; and the Levites set apart [that which was] for the sons of Aaron.
Kanaafuu bara Zarubaabelii fi bara Nahimiyaa keessa Israaʼeloonni hundi qooda guyyuma guyyaadhaan faarfattootaa fi karra eegdotaaf barbaachisu kennan. Akkasumas Lewwota kaaniif qooda isaanii kophaatti baasan; Lewwonnis qooda sanyiiwwan Aroon kophaatti baasan.
