Nehemiah 8
1 At that time all the people gathered together in the square before the Water Gate, and they asked Ezra the scribe to bring out the Book of the Law of Moses, which the LORD had commanded for Israel.
Naguummong dagiti amin a tattao idiay nalawa a disso iti sango ti Ruangan ti Danum para iti maysa a panggep. Kiniddawda kenni Ezra nga eskriba nga iyegna ti Libro ti Linteg ni Moises nga imbilin ni Yahweh iti Israel.
2 On the first day of the seventh month, Ezra the priest brought the Law before the assembly of men and women and all who could listen and understand.
Iti umuna nga aldaw iti maikapito a bulan, inyeg ni Ezra a padi ti linteg iti sangoanan ti gimong, babbai man wenno lallaki, ken kadagiti amin a makangngeg ken makaawat.
3 So Ezra read it aloud from daybreak until noon as he faced the square before the Water Gate, in front of the men and women and those who could understand. And all the people listened attentively to the Book of the Law.
Sinangona ti nalawa a disso iti sango ti Ruangan ti Danum, ket binasana daytoy manipud iti agsapa agingga iti agmatuon, iti sangoanan dagiti lallaki ken babbai, ken iti siasinoman a makaawat. Ket dimngeg a nasayaat dagiti tattao iti Libro ti Linteg.
4 Ezra the scribe stood on a high wooden platform built for this occasion. At his right side stood Mattithiah, Shema, Anaiah, Uriah, Hilkiah, and Maaseiah, and at his left were Pedaiah, Mishael, Malchijah, Hashum, Hash-baddanah, Zechariah, and Meshullam.
Ket nagtakder ni Ezra nga eskriba iti nangato a kayo a plataforma nga inaramid dagiti tattao para iti daytoy a panggep. Nakatakder iti makannawanna da Mattitias, Sema, Anaias, Urias, Hilkias ken Maaseias; ken nakatakder iti makannigidna da Pedaias, Misael, Malkija, Hasum, Hasbaddana, Zacarias ken Mesullam.
5 Ezra opened the book in full view of all the people, since he was standing above them all, and as he opened it, all the people stood up.
Linuktan ni Ezra ti libro iti imatang dagiti amin a tattao gapu ta nakatakder isuna iti ngatoenda, ket nagtakder dagiti amin a tattao apaman a naluktanna daytoy.
6 Then Ezra blessed the LORD, the great God, and with their hands uplifted, all the people said, “Amen, Amen!” Then they bowed down and worshiped the LORD with their faces to the ground.
Nagyaman ni Ezra kenni Yahweh, ti naindaklan a Dios ken inngato dagiti amin a tattao dagiti imada ket insungbatda, “Sapay koma ta kasta! Sapay koma ta kasta!” Kalpasanna, nagpaklebda ket nagdaydayawda kenni Yahweh.
7 The Levites—Jeshua, Bani, Sherebiah, Jamin, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodiah, Maaseiah, Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Hanan, and Pelaiah—instructed the people in the Law as they stood in their places.
Tinulongan da Jesua, Bani, Serebias, Jamin, Akkub, Sabbetai, Hodias, Maaseias, Kelita, Azarias, Josabad, Hanan, Pelaias ken dagiti Levita dagiti tattao tapno maawatanda ti linteg kabayatan nga adda latta kadagiti puestoda dagiti tattao.
8 So they read from the Book of the Law of God, explaining it and giving insight, so that the people could understand what was being read.
Ken binasada iti libro, ti linteg ti Dios, ket inlawlawagda daytoy babaen iti panangipatarus ken panangitedda iti kaipapanan daytoy tapno maawatan dagiti tattao ti naibasa.
9 Nehemiah the governor, Ezra the priest and scribe, and the Levites who were instructing the people said to all of them, “This day is holy to the LORD your God. Do not mourn or weep.” For all the people were weeping as they heard the words of the Law.
Ni Nehemias a gobernador, ni Ezra a padi ken eskriba, ken dagiti Levita a mangipalpalawag kadagiti tattao ket kinunada kadagiti amin a tattao, “Nasantoan daytoy nga aldaw kenni Yahweh a Diosyo. Saankayo nga agladingit wenno agsangit.” Ta nagsasangit dagiti amin a tattao idi nangngegda dagiti sasao manipud iti linteg.
10 Then Nehemiah told them, “Go and eat what is rich, drink what is sweet, and send out portions to those who have nothing prepared, since today is holy to our Lord. Do not grieve, for the joy of the LORD is your strength.”
Ket kinunana ni Nehemias kadakuada, “Agawidkayon, mangankayo iti naimas a taraon ken uminumkayo iti nasam-it, ket mangtedkayo kadagiti awan ti naisaganana gapu ta nasantoan daytoy nga aldaw iti Apotayo. Saankayo nga agladingit, ta ti rag-o ni Yahweh ti pigsayo.”
11 And the Levites calmed all the people, saying, “Be still, since today is holy. Do not grieve.”
Isu a pinagulimek dagiti Levita dagiti tattao a kunada, “Agtalnakayo! ta nasantoan daytoy nga aldaw. Saankayo nga agladingit.”
12 Then all the people began to eat and drink, to send out portions, and to rejoice greatly, because they understood the words that had been made known to them.
Ket nagawid dagiti tattao tapno mangan, uminum, mangibingay iti makan, ken agrambakda nga addaan iti kasta unay a rag-o gapu ta naawatanda dagiti sasao a naipakaammo kadakuada.
13 On the second day of the month, the heads of all the families, along with the priests and Levites, gathered around Ezra the scribe to study the words of the Law.
Iti maikadua nga aldaw, dagiti panguloen dagiti kapuonan ti pamilia manipud kadagiti amin a tattao, dagiti padi ken dagiti Levita ket sangsangkamaysada a napan kenni Ezra nga eskriba tapno adalenda dagiti sasao ti linteg.
14 And they found written in the Law, which the LORD had commanded through Moses, that the Israelites were to dwell in booths during the feast of the seventh month.
Ket nakitada a nakailanad iti linteg no kasano nga imbilin ni Yahweh babaen kenni Moises a rumbeng nga agnaed kadagiti tolda dagiti tattao ti Israel kabayatan ti fiesta iti maikapito a bulan.
15 So they proclaimed this message and spread it throughout their towns and in Jerusalem, saying, “Go out to the hill country and bring back branches of olive, wild olive, myrtle, palm, and other leafy trees, to make booths, as it is written.”
Rumbeng nga iwaragawagda iti amin a siudadda ken iti Jerusalem, a kunada, “Mapankayo idiay katurturodan, ken mangalakayo kadagiti sanga ti kayo nga olibo ken balang nga olibo, sangsanga ti mirto, sangsanga ti palma ken sangsanga dagiti narukbos a kayo tapno agaramidkayo kadagiti abong-abong,” a kas naisurat.
16 And the people went out, brought back branches, and made booths on their own rooftops, in their courtyards, in the court of the house of God, and in the squares by the Water Gate and by the Gate of Ephraim.
Isu a napan nangala dagiti tattao kadagiti sanga ket nagaramidda kadagiti abong-abong iti tuktok dagiti babbalayda, kadagiti paraanganda, kadagiti paraangan ti balay ti Dios, iti nalawa a disso iti abay ti Ruangan ti Danum ken iti plasa iti abay ti Ruangan ni Efraim.
17 The whole assembly who had returned from exile made booths and lived in them. From the days of Joshua son of Nun until that day, the Israelites had not celebrated like this. And there was great rejoicing.
Ket nagaramid dagti amin a gimong dagiti nakasubli manipud iti pannakaitalawda a kas balud kadagiti abong-abong sada nagyan kadagitoy. Agsipud ta saan a rinambakan dagiti tattao ti Israel daytoy a fiesta manipud iti aldaw ni Josue a putot ni Nun agingga iti dayta nga aldaw. Ket kasta unay ti rag-oda.
18 Day after day, from the first day to the last, Ezra read from the Book of the Law of God. The Israelites kept the feast for seven days, and on the eighth day they held an assembly, according to the ordinance.
Manipud iti umuna nga aldaw agingga iti maudi, inaldaw nga agbasa ni Ezra manipud iti Libro iti Linteg ti Dios. Rinambakanda ti fiesta iti pito nga aldaw ken iti maikawalo nga aldaw ket nangangayda iti napasnek a panagguummong a kas panagtulnog iti paglintegan.
