Nehemiah 6
1 Now it came to pass, when Sanaballat, and Tobias, and Gesam the Arabian, and the rest of our enemies, heard that I had built the wall, and [that] there was no opening left therein; ([but] hitherto I had not set up the doors on the gates; )
A LOHE iho la o Sanebalata, a A me Tobia, a me Gesema no Arabia, a me ke koena o ko makou poe enemi, ua uhau iho la au i ka pa, aole hoi i koe kauwahi ona i wawahiia'i, (aole nae au i kukulu iluna ia manawa i na pani ma na puka; )
2 that Sanaballat and Gesam sent to me, saying, Come and let us meet together in the villages in the plain of Ono. But they [were] plotting to do me mischief.
Alaila, hoouna mai la o Sanebalata a me Gesema io'u nei, i mai la, Ea, e halawai pu kakou ma na kulanakauhale o ka papu o Ono. Aka, manao iho la laua e hana ino mai ia'u.
3 So I sent messengers to them, saying, I am doing a great work, and I shall not be able to come down, lest the work should cease: as soon as I shall have finished it, I will come down to you.
A hoouna aku la au io lakou la i mau elele, e olelo aku, He hana nui ka'u e hana nei aole e hiki ia'u ke iho aku: no ke aha la e oki ai ka hana, i ko'u waiho ana ia, a iho aku io oukou la?
4 And they sent to me [again] to this effect; and I sent them [word] accordingly.
Eha ka lakou hoouna ana mai ia'u e like me keia olelo ana; a pane aku la no hoi au ia lakou e like no me keia olelo ana.
5 Then Sanaballat sent his servant to me with an open letter in his hand.
Alaila hoouna mai la o Sanehalata ia'u i kana kauwa me ka palapala i hoholaia ma kona lima, e like no me kela hana ana, a o ka lima hoi ia;
6 And in it was written, It has been reported amongst the Gentiles that you and the Jews are planning to revolt: therefore you are building the wall, and you will be a king to them.
A maloko olaila ua palapalaia, Ua lohoia e na lahuikanaka, a na Gasemu no i olelo ae, E ohumu ana oe a me ka Iuda e kipi: no ia mea kou uhau ana i ka pa, i lilo oe i alii no lakou e like me keia mau olelo.
7 And moreover you has appointed prophets to yourself, that you might dwell in Jerusalem as a king over Juda: and now these words will be reported to the king. Now then, come, let us take counsel together.
A ua hoonoho hoi oe i poe kaula e hai aku ma Ierusalema nou, me ka i ana'ku, He alii ma Iuda: eia hoi, e lohe auanei ke alii e like me keia mau olelo. Nolaila, ea, e kukakuka pu kakou.
8 And I sent to him, saying, It has not happened according to these words, [even] as you say, for you frame them falsely out of your heart.
Alaila, hoouna aku la au io na la, i aku la, Aole i hanaia e like me keia mau mea au i olelo mai ai, aka, mai loko mai o kou naau iho kou kuhi ana ia mau mea.
9 For all were trying to alarm us, saying, Their hands shall be weakened from this work, and it shall not be done. Now therefore I have strengthened my hands.
No ka mea, hoomakau mai lakou a pau ia makou, i ae la, E kuuia'ku ko lakou mau lima mai ka hana aku, i paa ole ia. Aka, ano, e hooikaika mai oe i ko'u mau lima.
10 And I came into the house of Semei the son of Dalaia the Son of Metabeel, and he was shut up; and he said, Let us assemble together in the house of God, in the midst of it, and let us shut the doors of it; for they are coming by night to kill you.
Alaila komo aku la au iloko o ka hale o Semaia ke keiki a Delaia ke keiki a Mehetaheela, ka mea i pani paa ia maloko; a i mai la, E hoakoakoa pu kakou ma ka hale o ke Akua, iwaena konu o ka luakini, a e pani kakou i na puka o ka luakini: no ka mea, e hiki mai auanei lakou o pepehi ia oe; i ka po no e hiki mai ai lakou e pepehi ia oe.
11 And I said, Who is the man that shall enter into the house, that he may live?
A i aku la au, E hoohee wale anei ke kanaka me au nei? Owai hoi ka mea e like me au nei e komo iloko o ka luakini i ola ia? Aole au e komo.
12 And I observed, and, behold, God had not sent him, for the prophecy was a fable [devised] against me:
A ike iho la au, aia hoi, aole i hoouna mai ke Akua ia ia; aka, ua hai ku e mai la oia ia olelo ia'u: no ka mea, ua hoolimalima o Tobia laua o Sanebalata ia ia.
13 and Tobias and Sanaballat had hired against me a multitude, that I might be frightened, and do this, and sin, and become to them an ill name, that they might reproach me.
A no ia mea oia i hoolimalimaia'i, i makau ai au, a hana pela, a hewa, i loaa ia lakou ka olelo hoino, e hoino mai ai ia'u.
14 Remember, O God, Tobias and Sanaballat, according to these their deeds, and the prophetess Noadia, and the rest of the prophets who tried to alarm me.
E hoomanao oe, e ko'u Akua, ia Tobia a me Sanebalata e like me keia mau hana ana a laua, a ia Noadia hoi, ke kaula wahine, a me na kaula e ae i manao e hoomakau mai ia'u.
15 So the wall was finished on the twenty-fifth day of the [month] Elul, in fifty-two days.
A ua paa ka pa i ka la iwakaluakumamalima o Elula, i na la he kanalimakumamalua.
16 And it came to pass, when all our enemies heard [of it], that all the nations round about us feared, and great alarm fell upon them, and they knew that it was of our God that this work should be finished.
A lohe ko makou poe enemi a pau, a ike hoi na lahuikanaka a pau a puni makou, kulou loa iho la ko lakou maka ilalo; no ka mea, ike lakou, ua hanaia keia hana e ko makou Akua.
17 And in those days letters came to Tobias from many nobles of Juda, and those of Tobias came to them.
Eia hoi, ia mau la, hoomahuahua iho la ka poe kaukaualii o Iuda i na palapala a lakou i hoouka aku ai io Tobia la, a hiki mai la hoi ka Tobia io lakou la.
18 For many in Juda were bound to him by oath, because he was son-in-law of Sechenias the son of Herae; and Jonan his son had taken the daughter of Mesulam the son of Barachia to wife.
No ka mea, he nui ka poe ma Iuda i hoohikiia nona, no ka mea, he hunonakane no ia no Sekania ke keiki a Ara; a ua lawe hoi o Iohanana kana keiki i ke kaikamahine a Mesulama ke keiki a Berekia.
19 And they reported his words to me, and carried out my words to him: and Tobias sent letters to terrify me.
Eia hoi, olelo mai la lakou imua o'u ma na mea maikai ona, a hai aku la hoi lakou i ka'u mau mea ia ia. A hoouna mai o Tobia i na palapala e hoomakau mai ia'u.
