Nehemiah 7
1 When the wall had been rebuilt and I had set the doors in place, the gatekeepers, singers, and Levites were appointed.
Tango misala ya kotonga mir esilaki mpe natiaki bizipelo ya bikuke, batiaki bakengeli bikuke, bayembi mpe Balevi: bato na bato na mosala na bango.
2 Then I put my brother Hanani in charge of Jerusalem, along with Hananiah the commander of the fortress, because he was a faithful man who feared God more than most.
Napesaki mokumba ya kokamba engumba Yelusalemi epai ya Anani, ndeko na ngai ya mobali, mpe epai ya Anania, moyangeli ya engumba batonga makasi, oyo, koleka bato ebele, azalaki moto ya sembo mpe azalaki kotosa Nzambe.
3 And I told them, “Do not open the gates of Jerusalem until the sun is hot. While the guards are on duty, keep the doors shut and securely fastened. And appoint the residents of Jerusalem as guards, some at their posts and some at their own homes.”
Nalobaki na bango: — Bikuke ya Yelusalemi esengeli te kofungwama liboso ete moyi engala, mpe, na pokwa, bakokanga makasi bizipelo na yango mpe bakokotisa yango bikangelo, wana bakengeli bikuke bakozala nanu na bisika na bango ya mosala. Botia lisusu lokola bakengeli, bavandi ya Yelusalemi: bamoko bakozala na bisika na bango ya mosala, mpe bamosusu bakokengela pembeni ya bandako na bango.
4 Now the city was large and spacious, but there were few people in it, and the houses had not yet been rebuilt.
Nzokande, etando ya engumba Yelusalemi ezalaki monene mpe ekenda mosika makasi, kasi bato kati na yango bazalaki moke mpe bandako etongamaki nanu te.
5 Then my God put it into my heart to assemble the nobles, the officials, and the people to be enrolled by genealogy. I found the genealogical register of those who had first returned, and I found the following written in it:
Nzambe na ngai apesaki ngai makanisi ya kosangisa bankumu, bakambi mpe bato mosusu mpo na kotanga motango na bango kolanda mabota na bango. Bongo, namonaki buku ya bokoko ya ba-oyo bazongaki bato ya liboso longwa na bowumbu. Tala makomi oyo namonaki kuna:
6 These are the people of the province who came up from the captivity of the exiles carried away to Babylon by Nebuchadnezzar its king. They returned to Jerusalem and Judah, each to his own town,

61 The following came up from Tel-melah, Tel-harsha, Cherub, Addon, and Immer, but could not prove that their families were descended from Israel:
Tala molongo ya bato oyo bawutaki na bowumbu, na bingumba Teli-Mela, Teli-Arisha, Kerubi-Adoni mpe Imeri, kasi balongaki te kolakisa ete mabota na bango ya botata ewuta na Isalaele:

63 And from among the priests: the descendants of Hobaiah, the descendants of Hakkoz, and the descendants of Barzillai (who had married a daughter of Barzillai the Gileadite and was called by their name).
Mpe kati na Banganga-Nzambe: bakitani ya Obaya, ya Akotsi mpe ya Barizilayi oyo abengamaki « Barizilayi » mpo ete abalaki mwana mwasi ya Barizilayi, moto ya Galadi.
64 These men searched for their family records, but they could not find them and so were excluded from the priesthood as unclean.
Balukaki mikanda oyo bakoma bakombo ya bakoko na bango, kasi batikalaki komona yango te. Boye balongolaki bango na mosala ya bonganga-Nzambe, pamba te bazalaki mbindo.
65 The governor ordered them not to eat the most holy things until there was a priest to consult the Urim and Thummim.
Moyangeli apekisaki bango kolia bilei ya bule kino tango Nganga-Nzambe moko akotuna toli ya Yawe na tina na bango na nzela ya Urimi mpe Tumimi.
66 The whole assembly numbered 42,360,
Motango ya lisanga mobimba ya bato oyo bawutaki na bowumbu ezalaki nkoto tuku minei na mibale na nkama misato na tuku motoba,
67 in addition to their 7,337 menservants and maidservants, as well as their 245 male and female singers.

68 They had 736 horses, 245 mules,
69 435 camels, and 6,720 donkeys.

70 Some of the heads of the families contributed to the project. The governor gave to the treasury 1,000 darics of gold, 50 bowls, and 530 priestly garments.
Bakambi mingi ya mabota bapesaki makabo oyo bakataki kopesa wuta na mitema na bango moko, mpo na misala ya kotonga Tempelo. Moyangeli apesaki na libenga ya misala mbongo ya bibende ya wolo nkoto moko, bakopo tuku mitano mpe banzambala nkama mitano na tuku misato ya mosala ya bonganga-Nzambe.
71 And some of the heads of the families gave to the treasury for the project 20,000 darics of gold and 2,200 minas of silver.
Bakambi mosusu ya mabota bapesaki na libenga ya misala mbongo ya bibende ya wolo nkoto tuku mibale mpe mbongo ya bibende ya palata nkoto mibale na nkama mibale na tuku mibale.
72 The rest of the people gave a total of 20,000 darics of gold, 2,000 minas of silver, and 67 priestly garments.
Batikali kati na bato bapesaki mbongo ya bibende ya wolo nkoto tuku mibale, mbongo ya bibende ya palata nkoto mibale mpe banzambala tuku motoba na sambo ya mosala ya bonganga-Nzambe.
73 So the priests, Levites, gatekeepers, singers, and temple servants, along with some of the people and the rest of the Israelites, settled in their own towns. And by the seventh month the Israelites had settled in their towns.
Banganga-Nzambe, Balevi, bakengeli bikuke, bayembi, basali ya Tempelo, ndambo kati na bato mpe bato nyonso ya Isalaele bavandaki kati na bingumba na bango moko. Tango sanza ya sambo ekomaki, bana ya Isalaele bakomaki kovanda kati na bingumba na bango.
