Nehemiah 7
1 When the wall had been rebuilt and I had set the doors in place, the gatekeepers, singers, and Levites were appointed.
Bbugwe bwe yaggwa okuzimba nga n’enzigi ziwangiddwamu, abakuumi ba wankaaki, n’abayimbi, n’Abaleevi nga bamaze okulondebwa,
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.
ne ndyoka nonda muganda wange Kanani awamu ne Kananiya omuduumizi w’ekigo okuvunaanyizibwanga Yerusaalemi, kubanga Kananiya yali yeesigika, ate ng’atya Katonda okusinga abantu abalala bangi.
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.”
Ne mbagamba nti, “Emiryango gya Yerusaalemi tegiteekwa kuggulwawo okutuusa ng’omusana tegunnakaalama nnyo. Abakuumi nga bakyali ku miryango, muggaleewo muginywereze ddala. Mu batuuze ba Yerusaalemi, mulondemu abanaakuumanga, abamu ku bo bakuumenga mu mpalo n’abalala bakuumenga ebifo ebiriraanye ennyumba zaabwe.”
4 Now the city was large and spacious, but there were few people in it, and the houses had not yet been rebuilt.
Ekibuga kyali kinene era nga kigazi naye abantu abaakibeerangamu nga batono, nga n’ennyumba tezinnaddaabirizibwa.
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:
Awo Katonda wange nannumiriza, okuyita abakungu n’abakulembeze, n’abantu abaabulijjo okujja okwewandiisa ng’ennyiriri zaabwe bwe zaali. Ne ndaba ekitabo ekyalimu ennyiriri zaabo abaasooka okudda, ne nsangamu amannya gano:
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,
Bano be bantu ab’omu ssaza abaava mu buwaŋŋanguse abaali banyagiddwa Nebukadduneeza kabaka w’e Babulooni; ne baddayo e Yerusaalemi ne Yuda, buli muntu mu kibuga ky’ewaabwe.

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:
Bano wammanga be baava mu bibuga eby’e Temmeera, n’e Terukalusa, n’e Kerubu, n’e Yaddoni, n’e Immeri, naye tebaalina bukakafu bulaga lulyo lwabwe newaakubadde ensibuko gye baava, nti Bayisirayiri:

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).
Ne ku bakabona kwaliko bazzukulu ba Kobaya, bazzukulu ba Kakkozi, ne bazzukulu ba Baluzirayi, eyawasa muwala wa Baluzirayi Omugireyaadi, era n’atuumibwa erinnya eryo.
64 These men searched for their family records, but they could not find them and so were excluded from the priesthood as unclean.
Abo waggulu ne banoonya amannya gaabwe mu biwandiiko naye nga tegaliimu, kyebaava baziyizibwa okubeera bakabona nga bayitibwa abatali balongoofu.
65 The governor ordered them not to eat the most holy things until there was a priest to consult the Urim and Thummim.
Era owessaza n’abagaana okulya ku bintu ebitukuvu, okutuusa nga kabona alina Ulimu ne Sumimu azze.
66 The whole assembly numbered 42,360,
Ekibiina kyonna awamu kyali emitwalo ena mu enkumi bbiri mu bisatu mu nkaaga,
67 in addition to their 7,337 menservants and maidservants, as well as their 245 male and female singers.
obutassaako baweereza baabwe abasajja n’abaweereza baabwe abakazi abaali akasanvu mu bisatu mu asatu mu musanvu; ate nga baalina n’abayimbi abasajja n’abakazi bibiri mu ana mu bataano.

Baalina embalaasi lusanvu mu asatu mu mukaaga, ennyumbu ebikumi bibiri mu ana mu ttaano,
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.
Abamu ku bakulu b’obusolya baawaayo ensimbi okukola omulimu. Gavana n’awaayo, kilo munaana n’ekitundu eza zaabu, n’ebbensani amakumi ataano, n’ebyambalo bya bakabona ebikumi bitaano mu asatu mu ggwanika.
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.
Abamu ku bakulu b’obusolya ne baawaayo kilo kikumi mu nsanvu eza zaabu, ne ttani emu n’obutundu bubiri obwa ffeeza mu ggwanika, olw’omulimu ogwali gukolebwa.
72 The rest of the people gave a total of 20,000 darics of gold, 2,000 minas of silver, and 67 priestly garments.
Omuwendo gwonna awamu ogwawebwayo abantu abalala gwali kilo kikumi mu nsanvu eza zaabu, ne ttani emu n’akatundu kamu aka ffeeza, n’ebyambalo bya bakabona nkaaga mu musanvu.
