Nehemiah 13
1 And on that day they read in the book of Moses in the hearing of the people: and therein was found written, that the Ammonites and the Moabites should not come in to the church of God for ever:
Iti dayta nga aldaw, imbasa dagiti padi ti Libro ni Moises a mangmangngeg dagiti tattao. Naduktalanda a nakasurat iti daytoy a nasken a saan a makitipon dagiti Ammonita wenno Moabita iti taripnong ti Dios, iti agnanayon.
2 Because they met not the children of Israel with bread and water: and they hired against them Balaam, to curse them, and our God turned the curse into blessing.
Gapu ta saanda a nangted iti tinapay ken danum kadagiti tattao ti Israel, ngem ketdi tinangdananda ni Balaam a mangilunod iti Israel. Nupay kasta, pinagbalin ti Diostayo ti lunod a bendision.
3 And it came to pass, when they had heard the law, that they separated every stranger from Israel.
Apaman a nangngegda ti linteg, inlasinda dagiti amin a gangannaet manipud iti Israel.
4 And over this thing was Eliasib the priest, who was set over the treasury of the house of our God, and was near akin to Tobias.
Ita, sakbay a nadutokan ni Eliasib a padi a mangaywan kadagiti siled a pagiduldulinan iti balay ti Diostayo. Gayyemnan ni Tobias.
5 And he made him a great storeroom, where before him they laid up gifts, and frankincense, and vessels, and the tithes of the corn, of the wine, and of the oil, the portions of the Levites, and of the singing men, and of the porters, and the firstfruits of the priests.
Insagana ni Eliasib ti dakkel a siled a pagiduldulinan para kenni Tobias, a sigud a pagikabkabilanda kadagiti daton a bukbukel, kadagiti insenso, kadagiti alikamen, ken kadagiti apagkapullo ti trigo, baro nga arak, ken ti lana, a nairanta para kadagiti Levita, kadagiti kumakanta, kadagiti guardia ti ruangan, ken kadagiti kontribusion para kadagiti papadi.
6 But in all this time I was not in Jerusalem, because in the two and thirtieth year of Artaxerxes king of Babylon, I went to the king, and after certain days I asked the king:
Ngem iti tiempo a mapaspasamak amin dagitoy, awanak idiay Jerusalem. Gapu ta iti maikatallopulo ket dua a tawen a panagari ni Artaxerxes iti Babilonia, napanak iti ayan ti ari. Saan a nagbayag, nagkiddawak iti ari iti pammalubos a pumanaw,
7 And I came to Jerusalem, and I understood the evil that Eliasib had done for Tobias, to make him a storehouse in the courts of the house of God.
ket nagsubliak idiay Jerusalem. Natakuatak ti dakes nga inaramid ni Eliasib a panangipaaramatna kenni Tobias iti siled a pagiduldulinan iti paraangan iti balay ti Dios.
8 And it seemed to me exceeding evil. And I cast forth the vessels of the house of Tobias out of the storehouse.
Kasta unay ti ungetko ket impurruakko dagiti alikamen ni Tobias iti ruar ti siled a pagiduldulinan.
9 And I commanded and they cleansed the storehouses: and I brought thither again the vessels of the house of God, the sacrifice, and the frankincense.
Imbilinko nga aramidenda ti seremonia ti pannakadalus kadagiti siled a pagiduldulinan, ket insublik kadagitoy dagiti alikamen iti balay ti Dios, dagiti daton a trigo, ken ti insenso.
10 And I perceived that the portions of the Levites had not been given them: and that the Levites, and the singing men, and they that ministered were fled away every man to his own country:
Ken natakuatak a saan a naibunong kadagiti Levita dagiti bingay a nairanta a maited kadakuada, isu a dagus a pinanawanda ti templo, ket nagturong ti tunggal maysa iti talonna, kasta met ti inaramid dagiti kumakanta nga agserserbi.
11 And I pleaded the matter against the magistrates, and said: Why have we forsaken the house of God? And I gathered them together, and I made them to stand in their places.
Isu nga inungtak dagiti opisial ket kinunak kadakuada, “Apayen a nabaybay-an ti balay ti Dios?” Inummongko ida ken pinaggianko ida kadagiti kampoda.
12 And all Juda brought the tithe of the corn, and the wine, and the oil into the storehouses.
Ket inyeg dagiti amin a taga-Juda ti apagkapullo ti trigo, baro nga arak, ken ti lana kadagiti siled a pagiduldulinan.
13 And we set over the storehouses Selemias the priest, and Sadoc the scribe, and of the Levites Phadaia, and next to them Hanan the son of Zachur, the son of Mathania: for they were approved as faithful, and to them were committed the portions of their brethren.
Insaadko a kas tresurero kadagiti siled a pagiduldulinan da Selemias a padi, Zadok nga eskriba, ken Pedaias a nagtaud iti Levita. Sumaruno kadakuada ni Hanan a putot ni Zaccur a putot ni Matanias, gapu ta ammok a mapagtalkak ida. Ti trabahoda ket agibunong kadagiti abasto kadagiti padada nga agtrabtrabaho.
14 Remember me, O my God, for this thing, and wipe not out my kindnesses, which I have done relating to the house of my God and his ceremonies.
Laglagipem, O Diosko ti maipapan iti daytoy, ken saanmo koma a punasen dagiti nasasayaat nga inaramidko para iti balay ti Diosko ken dagiti trabaho iti daytoy.
15 In those days I saw in Juda some treading the presses on the sabbath, and carrying sheaves, and lading asses with wine, and grapes, and figs, and all manner of burthens, and bringing them into Jerusalem on the sabbath day. And I charged them that they should sell on a day on which it was lawful to sell.
Kadidiay nga aldaw, nakakitaak kadagiti tattao idiay Juda nga agpespespes iti ubas iti Aldaw a Panaginana ken agaw-awitda kadagiti trigo ket ilugluganda dagitoy kadagiti asnoda, ken kasta met ti arak, ubas, igos, ken amin a kita dagiti nadagsen a karga sada inyeg idiay Jerusalem iti Aldaw a Panaginana. Nagririak ta aglaklakoda kadagiti taraon iti dayta nga aldaw.
16 Some Tyrians also dwelt there, who brought fish, and all manner of wares: and they sold them on the sabbaths to the children of Juda in Jerusalem.
Nagisangpet dagiti lallaki a taga-Tiro nga agnanaed idiay Jerusalem iti lames ken amin a kita ti magatang, ket inlakoda dagitoy kadagiti tattao ti Juda ken iti entero a siudad iti Aldaw a Panaginana!
17 And I rebuked the chief men of Juda, and said to them: What is this evil thing that you are doing, profaning the sabbath day?
Binabalawko ngarud dagiti pangulo ti Juda, “Ania daytoy a dakes nga ar-aramidenyo, saanyo a raraemen ti Aldaw a Panaginana?
18 Did not our fathers do these things, and our God brought all this evil upon us, and upon this city? And you bring more wrath upon Israel by violating the sabbath.
Saan kadi nga inaramid dagiti ammayo daytoy? Ken saan kadi nga inyeg ti Diostayo amin dagitoy a dakes kadatayo ken iti daytoy a siudad? Ita, ad-adda pay a pagpungpungtotenyo ti Dios iti Israel gapu iti saanyo a panagraem iti Aldaw a Panaginana.”
19 And it came to pass, that when the gates of Jerusalem were at rest on the sabbath day, I spoke: and they shut the gates, and I commanded that they should not open them till after the sabbath: and I set some of my servants at the gates, that none should bring in burthens on the sabbath day.
Apaman a sumipnget iti ruangan ti Jerusalem sakbay a mangrugi ti Aldaw a Panaginana, imbilinko a marikpan dagiti ridaw ken nasken a saan a maluktan dagitoy agingga a malpas ti Aldaw a Panaginana. Pinagbantayko dagiti sumagmamano kadagiti adipenko iti ruangan tapno awan ti karga a maiyuneg iti Aldaw a Panaginana.
20 So the merchants, and they that sold all kinds of wares, stayed without Jerusalem once or twice.
Naminsan wenno namindua a nagkampo dagiti komersiante ken dagiti aglaklako iti amin a kita ti tagilako iti ruar ti Jerusalem.
21 And I charged them, and I said to them: Why stay you before the wall? if you do so another time, I will lay hands on you. And from that time they came no more on the sabbath.
Ngem binallaagak ida, “Apay ngay nga agkamkampokayo iti ruar ti pader? No aramidenyonto pay daytoy, pagtalawenkayo!” Manipud iti dayta a tiempo saandan nga immay iti Aldaw a Panaginana.
22 I spoke also to the Levites that they should be purified, and should come to keep the gates, and to sanctify the sabbath day: for this also remember me, O my God, and spare me according to the multitude of thy tender mercies.
Ken binilinko dagiti Levita nga aramidenda ti seremonia ti pannakadalusda, sada mapan guardiaan dagiti ruangan, tapno mangilin ti Aldaw a Panaginana. Laglagipem met daytoy, O Diosko, ken kaassiannak gapu iti kinapudnom iti tulagmo kaniak.
23 In those days also I saw Jews that married wives, women of Azotus, and of Ammon, and of Moab.
Kadagidiay nga aldaw, nakitak pay dagiti Judio a nakiasawa kadagiti babbai a taga-Asdod, Ammon ken Moab.
24 And their children spoke half in the speech of Azotus, and could not speak the Jews’ language, but they spoke according to the language of this and that people.
Kagudua ti bilang dagiti annakda ti agsasao iti pagsasao ti Asdod, ngem saanda a makapagsao iti pagsasao ti Juda, ti laeng pagsasao dagiti tattao a pagnanaedanda.
25 And I chid them, and laid my curse upon them. And I beat some of them, and shaved off their hair, and made them swear by God that they would not give their daughters to their sons, nor take their daughters for their sons, nor for themselves, saying:
Ket inungtak ida, inlunodko ida, kinabilko ti dadduma kadakuada ken pinarutko dagiti bubuokda. Pinagsapatak ida iti sangoanan ti Dios, kinunak, “Saanyo ipaasawa dagiti annakyo a babbai kadagiti annakda a lallaki, wenno ipaasawa dagiti annakda a babbai kadagiti annakyo a lallaki, wenno saanyo nga asawaen dagiti annakda a babbai.
26 Did not Solomon king of Israel sin in this kind of thing? and surely among many nations, there was not a king like him, and he was beloved of his God, and God made him king over all Israel: and yet women of other countries brought even him to sin.
Saan kadi a dagitoy a babbai ti nakaigapuan ti panagbasol ni Solomon nga ari ti Israel? Kadagiti adu a nasion awan ti ari a kas kenkuana, ken inayat isuna ti Diosna. Ken pinagturay ti Dios isuna nga ari iti entero nga Israel. Uray no kasta, dagiti ganggannaet nga assawana ti makagapu a nagbasol isuna.
27 And shall we also be disobedient and do all this great evil to transgress against our God, and marry strange women?
Dumngegkami kadi kadakayo ket aramidenmi amin daytoy a kinadakes ken agsukirkami iti Dios babaen iti panangasawami kadagiti ganggannaet a babbai?”
28 And one of the sons of Joiada the son of Eliasib the high priest, was son in law to Sanaballat the Horonite, and I drove him from me.
Maysa kadagiti annak ni Joyada a putot ni Eliasib a nangato a padi ket manugang ni Sanballat a Horonita. Pinapanawko ngarud isuna idiay Jerusalem.
29 Remember them, O Lord my God, that defile the priesthood, and the law of priests and Levites.
Laglagipem ida O, Diosko, gapu iti panangtulawda iti akem a kinapadi, ken iti katulagan ti kinapadi ken dagiti Levita.
30 So I separated from them all strangers, and I appointed the courses of the priests and the Levites, every man in his ministry:
Ket inaramidko ti seremonia ti pannakadalusda kadagiti amin a ganggannaet, ken imbagak dagiti pagrebbengan dagiti padi ken dagiti Levita, ti tunggal maysa iti trabahona.
31 And for the offering of wood at times appointed, and for the firstfruits: remember me, O my God, unto good. Amen.
Impaayko dagiti kayo a pangpuor iti daton iti umno a tiempo ken dagiti umuna a bunga. Laglagipennak, O Diosko, para iti pagsayaatak.
