< Nehemiah 7 >

1 Now when the building of the wall was complete and I had put up the doors, and the door-keepers and the music-makers and the Levites had been given their places,
Vongtung te a sak phoeiah tah thohkhaih te ka buen tih thoh tawt neh laa sa khaw, Levi khaw ka khueh.
2 I made my brother Hanani, and Hananiah, the ruler of the tower, responsible for the government of Jerusalem: for he was a man of good faith, fearing God more than most.
Te vaengah ka mana Hanani neh Hananiah te Jerusalem rhalmah im ah mangpa la ka uen. Anih tah oltak kah hlang la om tih Pathen te muep a rhih ngai.
3 And I said to them, Do not let the doors of Jerusalem be open till the sun is high; and while the watchmen are in their places, let the doors be shut and locked: and let the people of Jerusalem be put on watch, every one in his watch, opposite his house.
Te phoeiah amih te ka uen tih, “Khohmik a saeham hil Jerusalem vongka te ah uh boel saeh. Amamih a rhaih pai vaengah thohkhaih te khai uh saeh lamtah kalh uh saeh. Jerusalem kah khosa rhoek tah amah rhaltawt ah pakhat neh a im hmai ah pakhat te rhaltawt la pai bal saeh,” ka ti nah.
4 Now the town was wide and great: but the people in it were only a small number, and the houses had not been put up.
Khopuei te hmatoeng lamtah sang tih len dae a khui kah pilnam tah a yol dongah im sa om pawh.
5 And my God put it into my heart to get together the rulers and the chiefs and the people so that they might be listed by families. And I came across a record of the names of those who came up at the first, and in it I saw these words:
Ka pathen loh ka lungbuei ah a khueh dongah hlangcoelh rhoek khaw, ukkung rhoek khaw, pilnam khaw a khuui bangla ka coi. Te vaengah lamhma la aka mael rhoek kah rhuirhong cabu te ka hmuh tih a khuiah a daek tangtae la ka hmuh.
6 These are the people of the divisions of the kingdom, among those who had been made prisoners by Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, and taken away by him, who went back to Jerusalem and Judah, every one to his town;
He tah vangsawn tamna lamkah aka mael rhoek paeng ca rhoek ni. Amih te Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar loh a poelyoe dae Jerusalem la, Judah la, amah kho la rhip mael uh.

Tamtaeng rhoek neh Solomon kah sal koca rhoek te a pum la ya thum sawmko panit.
61 All these were the people who went up from Tel-melah, Tel-harsha, Cherub, Addon, and Immer; but because they had no knowledge of their fathers' families or offspring, it was not certain if they were Israelites:
Telmelah, Telharsa, Kherub, Addon neh Immer lamkah aka mael rhoek khaw a napa imkhui neh a tiingan tah thui la lo pawh. Amih te Israel lamkah ngawn ni.

Khosoih rhoek lamloh Hobaiah koca, Koz koca, Barzillai koca long tah a yuu te Giladi Barzillai nu te a loh dongah amih ming la a khue.
64 They made search for their record among the lists of families, but their names were nowhere to be seen, so they were looked on as unclean and no longer priests.
Amih kah a khuui ca te a tlap uh dae a hmu pawt dongah khosoihbi lamloh coom uh coeng.
65 And the Tirshatha said that they were not to have the most holy things for their food, till a priest came to give decision by the Urim and Thummim.
Te dongah khosoih loh Urim, Thummim neh a pai hlan hil hmuencim kah buhcim te caak pawt ham amih te tongmang boei loh a uen.
66 The number of all the people together was forty-two thousand, three hundred and sixty;
Hlangping pum te pakhat la thawng sawmli thawng hnih ya thum sawmrhuk lo.
67 As well as their men-servants and their women-servants, of whom there were seven thousand, three hundred and thirty-seven; and they had two hundred and forty-five men and women to make music.
Amih phoei lamloh a salpa neh a sal huta he thawng rhih ya thum sawmthum parhih lo. Amih laa sa pa neh laa sa nu rhoek khaw ya hnih sawmli panga lo.
68 They had seven hundred and thirty-six horses, two hundred and forty-five transport beasts;
Kalauk ya li sawmthum panga, laak thawng rhuk, ya rhih pakul.
69 Four hundred and thirty-five camels, six thousand, seven hundred and twenty asses.
A napa rhoek kah boeilu hmuicue lamloh tongmang boei bitat ham a paek uh.
70 And some of the heads of families gave money for the work. The Tirshatha gave into the store a thousand darics of gold, fifty basins, five hundred and thirty priests' robes.
Thakvoh khuiah sui tangkathi thawng khat, baelcak sawmnga, khosoih angkidung ya nga sawmthum.
71 And some of the heads of families gave into the store for the work twenty thousand darics of gold, and two thousand, two hundred pounds of silver.
A napa boeilu rhoek lamlong khaw bitat dongkah thakvoh khuiah sui tangkathi thawng kul, cak mina thawng hnih ya hnih a sang uh.
72 And that which the rest of the people gave was twenty thousand darics of gold, and two thousand pounds of silver, and sixty-seven priests' robes.
Pilnam a meet loh a paek te sui tangkathi thawng kul neh cak mina thawng hnih, khosoih angkidung sawmrhuk parhih lo.
73 So the priests and the Levites and the door-keepers and the music-makers and some of the people and the Nethinim, and all Israel, were living in their towns.
Te dongah khosoih rhoek neh Levi rhoek khaw, thoh tawt rhoek neh laa sa rhoek khaw, pilnam lamkah neh tamtaeng rhoek khaw, Israel pum khaw amamih khopuei ah kho a sak uh. Hla rhih a pha vaengah Israel ca rhoek te amamih kho ah omuh.
