< 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.
Hanki Tima Afi Kafanema nehaza kafamofo avugama me'nea kankamumpi ana maka Israeli vahe'mo'za eri mago zamavugosa hu'za eme atru hu'naze. Anama hute'za avoma kre eri'zama e'neria ne' Ezrana asami'za, Ra Anumzamo'ma Israeli vahe'ma zamasamio huno, Mosesema huntegeno krente'nea avontafera erinka eno hu'za hu'naze.
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.
Anage hazageno 7ni ikamofo ese knazupa, pristi ne' Ezra'a ana kasege avontafera erino, venenene a'nene kema antahini'ma huga mofavreramima mani'naza zamavuga e'ne.
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.
Anante Ezra'a ana avontafera erino nanterampi tima nefiza kafamofo avugama me'nea kumapi, ana maka Israeli vahe zamavuga oti'neno, ana kasege avontafepinti nehamparige'za vene'nene a'nanene, kema antahi ani'ma huga mofavreramimo'za nentahizage'za, ana maka vahe'mo'zanena zamagesa ante so'e hu'neza nentahizageno vuno feruse'ne.
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.
Hanki Ezra'a manisga hu'neno keagama hu tra'ma tro hunte'naza trate mani'nege'za azantmaga kaziga, Matitia'ma, Sema'ma, Anaia'ma, Uria'ma, Hilkia'ene Ma'aseiaki hu'za oti'naze. Ana hazageno hoga kaziga'a Pedaia'ma Misaeli'ma Malkija'ma Hasumi'ma Hasbadana'ma Zekaraia'ene Mesulamuki hu'za oti'naze.
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.
Hagi anante Ezra'a kasegema hamprinaku manisga hu trate mani'nege'za ana maka vahe'mo'za negageno, ana avontafe'ma erivakama rege'za, ana maka vahe'mo'za oti vagare'naze.
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.
Ana hazageno Ezra'a Ra Anumzana tusi'a Anumzamofona agi'a ahentesga hu'ne. Ana hige'za ve'a kevumo'za zamazana erisga huvagare'za, Tamage, Tamage nehu'za, zamarena re'za mopafi zamavugosaregati kepri hu'za Ra Anumzamofona monora hunte'naze.
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.
Anante anama hutazage'za, Livae nagara Jesua'ma Bani'ma Serebia'ma Jamini'ma Akubu'ma Sabetaia'ma Hodia'ma Ma'aseia'ma Kelita'ma Azaria'ma Josabati'ma Hanani'ene Pelaia'ma hu'za, oti'naza vahera kasegea eriama hu'za zamasami'naze.
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.
Zamagra Anumzamofo kasege avontafepinti hamparite'za, agu'gesa'a eriama hu'za vahe'mo'zama antahi ani'ma hu'are zamasamizage'za antahi ama' hu'naze.
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.
Hagi anante Juda mopare gavana ne' Nehemaiaki, Pristi eri'zama enerino avontafe'ma negrea ne' Ezra'ene Livae naga'ma vahe'ma rempima hunezamiza naga'mo'zanena amanage hu'za maka vahera zamasami'naze, Menina amagnamo'a tamagri Anumzamofo avurera ruotge hu'neanki tamasunkura huge, zavirategera osiho. Na'ankure zamagrama ana kasegema nentahi'za maka vahe'mo'za zavi krafage nehazage'za anankea hu'naze.
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.”
Anante Nehemaia'a anage huno zamasami'ne, Vutma knare'nare ne'zane haganentake tinena ome neneta, musenkase nehuta ne'zama trotra'ma huonte'nesaza vahera mago'a zamigahaze. Amagnamo'a tagri Ra Anumzamofo avurera ruotage hu'neanki, tamasunkura osutma muse hiho. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'ma neramia musezamo'a tamagri hankave me'ne.
11 And the Levites calmed all the people, saying, “Be still, since today is holy. Do not grieve.”
Hanki Livae naga'mo'za vahe'ma zamazeri fru hu kea amanage hu'naze, Akoheta maniho, na'ankure amagnamo'a ruotge hu'nea kna me'ne. E'ina hu'negu tamasunkura osiho.
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.
Hanki maka veamo'za no zamirega vu'za e'za hu'za, ne'zane tinena ome nene'za, ne'zankuma atupa'ma hu'naza vahera ne'zana nezami'za tusi musenkase hu'naze. Na'ankure kasegema hampari zamiza kemofo agafa'a antahi ama hu'nazagu anara hu'naze.
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.
Hanki 7ni ikamofona nampa2 knazupa, ana maka naga nofite'ma ugagotama huterema hu'naza vahe'ene pristi vahe'mo'zane Livae naga'moza, kasegefima me'nea naneke rempi huzami'niegu avontafe'ma negrea ne' Ezrante e'za emeritru hu'naze.
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.
Ana hute'za Ra Anumzamo'ma Mosesema ami'nea Kasege avontafepina amanahu ke me'nege'za ke'za erifore hu'naze. Israeli vahe'mota 7ni ikampima musenkasema hu knarera fugagi nompi mani'neta ne'zana kreta neneta musena hugahaze huno hu'nea naneke me'nege'za ke'naze.
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.”
Ana hu'negu ne'onse kumatmimpine Jerusalemi kumapinema mani'naza vahetega amanage huta kea atre zamanteho, avontafepina amanage huno krente'ne, agonarega zafa tanopafi mareritma ani'namoke'ma hu'nenia olivi azankuna'ene, afi olivi zafa azankuna'ene tofe ani'nane Maitilesi zafa (myrtle) azankuna'ene mago'a ani'nage'ma hu'nea zafa azankuna'enena erita eta fugagi nona eme kineta kasegemo'ma hu'nea kante anteta ne'zana kreta neneta, musena hugahaze huno krentene.
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.
Ana hu'negu veamo'za vu'za zafa azankuna'a ome eri'za e'za nozamimofo agofetu'ene kumapinena fugagi nona eme negi'za, Anumzamofo mono no kumapine, Tima afi Kafanema nehaza kafamofo avugane, Efraemi kafanema nehaza kafamofo avuga fugagi nontamina ki'naze.
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.
Hanki ana maka vahe'ma Babiloni kinafinti'ma atre'za e'naza fugagi no ki'za mani'naze. Hagi Nuni nemofo Josua knareti'ma eno ana knare'ma ege'za, e'inahu zana hu'za musenkasea osu'nazanki'za, tusi musenkase hu'naze.
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.
Ana nehu'za mago mago zupa Anumzamofo nanekea mago'ane Ezra'a hamprige'za antahi'naze. Nentahi'za seveni zagekna zupa mani'ne'za muse hu'naze. Hagi ana'ma hute'za Anumzamo'ma kema hu'nea za hu'za eme atru huvagarete'za vu'za e'za hu'naze.
