< 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,
Mgbe e wuzichara mgbidi ahụ, na mgbe m guzobesịrị ibo nʼọnụ ụzọ ya niile nʼọnọdụ ha, họpụtakwa ndị ọbụ abụ na ndị nche, na ndị Livayị.
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.
Enyefere m ọrụ ilekọta Jerusalem nʼaka nwanne m nwoke bụ Hanani, ya na Hananaya onye bụ onyeisi ụlọ ukwu ahụ e wusiri ike, nʼihi na ọ bụ nwoke na-ekwu eziokwu, bụrụkwa onye na-atụ egwu Chineke karịa ọtụtụ ndị ọzọ.
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.
Agwara m ha, “Na-emeghenụ ọnụ ụzọ ama naanị mgbe chi bọziri nke ọma. Kpọchiekwa ha mgbe ndị nche ka nọ na nche. Họpụtakwanụ ndị bi na Jerusalem ka ha bụrụ ndị nche. Ụfọdụ ga-eche nʼebe a họpụtara ha, ụfọdụ ga-eche nʼakụkụ ụlọ nke aka ha.”
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.
Nʼoge a obodo ahụ buru ibu dịkwa mbara, ma ndị bi nʼime ya dị ole na ole nʼọnụọgụgụ, ụlọ ndị dị nʼime ya bụkwa ihe ewugharịbeghị.
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:
Ya mere Chineke m tinyere ya nʼobi m ka m chịkọta ndị niile a na-asọpụrụ, ndị ọchịchị, na ndị niile bi nʼobodo, maka idebanye aha nʼakwụkwọ ezinaụlọ nʼezinaụlọ. Achọtara m ebe e depụtara usoro ndị mmadụ niile bụ ụzọ lọta Juda nʼoge gara aga. Nke a bụ ihe m chọpụtara edere nʼime ya:
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;
Ndị a bụ ndị obodo niile a na-achị achị, bụ ndị sitere na ndọta nʼagha nke Nebukadneza, eze Babilọn, onye dọtara ha nʼagha buru ha laa nʼala ọzọ. Ha lọghachitere na Jerusalem nakwa Juda, onye ọbụla nʼobodo nke aka ya.

Ndị na-eje ozi nʼụlọnsọ na ụmụ ndị na-ejere eze Solomọn ozi, dị narị atọ na iri itoolu na abụọ.
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:
Ndị a bụ ndị ọzọ sitere nʼobodo Tel Mela, Tel Hasha, Kerub, Adọn na Imea, nke dị nʼala Peshịa lọta. Ma ha enweghị ike igosi ezinaụlọ ebe agbụrụ ha si nʼIzrel.

63 And of the priests: the children of Hobaiah, the children of Hakkoz, the children of Barzillai, who was married to one of the daughters of Barzillai the Gileadite, and took their name.
Sitekwa nʼetiti ndị nchụaja: Ndị agbụrụ: Hobaya, Hakoz na Bazilai (nwoke lụrụ ada Bazilai onye Gilead a kpọọ ya aha nʼaha ha).
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.
Ndị a chọrọ ebe e depụtara usoro ọmụmụ ha nʼakwụkwọ, ma ha achọtaghị ha nʼihi ya e wepụrụ ha nʼọrụ nchụaja dịka ndị na-adịghị ọcha.
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.
Nʼihi nke a, onyeisi ọchịchị nyere iwu ka ha ghara iri ihe aja dịkarịsịrị nsọ, tutu ruo mgbe a ga-enwe onye nchụaja na-eji Urim na Tumim ajụta ase.
66 The number of all the people together was forty-two thousand, three hundred and sixty;
Nkpọkọta ọnụọgụgụ ndị niile lọtara dị iri puku anọ na abụọ, na narị atọ na iri isii,
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.

68 They had seven hundred and thirty-six horses, two hundred and forty-five transport beasts;
Ịnyịnya dị narị asaa na iri atọ na isii, ịnyịnya muul narị abụọ na iri anọ na ise,
69 Four hundred and thirty-five camels, six thousand, seven hundred and twenty asses.
ịnyịnya kamel dị narị anọ na iri atọ na ise, ebe ịnyịnya ibu dị puku isii, na narị asaa na iri abụọ.
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.
Ma ụfọdụ nʼime ndịisi ezinaụlọ nyere onyinye maka ọrụ ahụ. Onyeisi ọchịchị tinyere nʼụlọakụ otu puku darik ọlaedo, iri efere ọlaedo ise na uwe ndị nchụaja narị ise na iri atọ.
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.
Ụfọdụ ndịisi ezinaụlọ tinyere nʼụlọakụ maka ije ozi ahụ, darik ọlaedo puku iri abụọ, na ọtụtụ minas ọlaọcha puku abụọ na narị abụọ.
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.

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.
Ndị nchụaja, na ndị Livayị, na ndị nche ọnụ ụzọ, ndị ọbụ abụ na ndị na-eje ozi nʼụlọnsọ, tinyere ụfọdụ ndị mmadụ na ndị Izrel niile fọdụrụ, gara birikwa nʼobodo nke ha. Mgbe ọnwa asaa ruru, nʼoge a ndị Izrel niile e birila nʼobodo nke aka ha,
