Nehemiah 13
1 And on that day did they reade in the booke of Moses, in the audience of the people, and it was found written therein, that the Ammonite, and the Moabite should not enter into the Congregation of God,
Hiche nikho ma ma hin Mose lekhabu chu mipi ho lah a asimdoh un ahileh Ammon mihole Moab miho chu Pathen houkhom na a lutthei lou diu ahi ti amudoh’un ahi.
2 Because they met not the children of Israel with bread and with water, but hired Balaam against them, that he should curse them: and our God turned the curse into a blessing.
Ajeh chu amahon gamthip noiya chun Israelte an le tui anape nom pouvin ahi. Chusangin amahon Balaam chu apa-lah a sapset sah ding ana gouvin ahi, ahin Pathenin hiche sapset na chu phattheiboh na in ana lehei peh in ahi.
3 Now when they had heard the Lawe, they separated from Israel all those that were mixed.
Hiche danthu kijihna laitah chu akiphah poh tengleh gamchom miho chu apet petna houkhom na a kon chun anodoh jiuvin ahi.
4 And before this had the Priest Eliashib the ouersight of the chamber of the house of our God, being kinsman to Tobiah:
Hiche masanghin i-Pathen’u houin’a thilkeo koina indan ho vesui dinga kinganse Eliashib hi Tobiah inko ana hikhan;
5 And he had made him a great chamber and there had they aforetime layde the offringes, the incense, and the vessels, and the tithes of corne, of wine, and of oyle (appointed for the Leuites, and the singers, and the porters) and the offringes of the Priests.
Amahin thilkoina indan lentah khat chu Tobiah khut nah ana pedoh khan ahi. Hiche indan chu tumasang’a houin thil hole chang hopsom lengpitwi thah, Olive thao chuleh thempu ho ding maicham koina kinei anahi (hiche ho hi Levite le, lasa miho, chuleh kelkot ngah hoa dinga ana kigong chu anahi.)
6 But in all this time was not I in Ierusalem: for in the two and thirtieth yere of Artahshashte King of Babel, came I vnto the King, and after certaine dayes I obteined of the King.
Hiche pet hin keima Jerusalem a kana um'in ahi, ajehchu Babylon lengpa Artaxerxes vaihom kum somthum le kum ni channa a chu akoma kana kile kit na dingin phalna kahin kilah in ahi.
7 And when I was come to Ierusalem, I vnderstood the euil that Eliashib had done for Tobiah, in that hee had made him a chamber in the court of the house of God,
Jerusalem kahung nung lhun jouvin Eliashib min Pathen houin indan sung khat ana pehdoh jenga hitobanga thildihlou ana bol khah chu kahe doh tan ahi.
8 And it grieued me sore: therefore I cast forth all the vessels of the house of Tobiah out of the chamber.
Hichu keiman nom mo kasa behseh jeng tan Tobiah thilkeo ho jouse chu indan sunga kon chun kale mangpeh tan ahi.
9 And I commanded them to clense ye chambers: and thither brought I againe the vessels of the house of God with the meate offring and the incense.
Hijouchun indan sung ho chu kasuhtheng sah in, Pathen houin thilkeo hole, chang hopsom ho chuleh gimnamtui ho chu kale lhohlut kittai.
10 And I perceiued that the portions of the Leuites had not bene giuen, and that euery one was fled to his lande, euen the Leuites and singers that executed the worke.
Chuleh keiman Levite chanding anneh kigong sa ho chu ana peh louvu kamudoh tan, hijeha chu Pathen houkhom na a analamkai dingho chu ama loulang cheh a natong dingin ana kinungle tauvin ahi.
11 Then reproued I the rulers and sayd, Why is the house of God forsaken? And I assembled them, and set them in their place.
Keiman gangtah in lamkai ho chu kakimaito pin kasei tan ahi; “Ipi dinga Pathen houin hi nahsah moa kikoija hitam?” kati. Hiche jouchun Levite chu kavel koudoh in atohdiu kincheh u chu katohsah kit tan ahi.
12 Then brought all Iudah the tithes of corne and of wine, and of oyle vnto the treasures.
Hiti chun Judah mipite ho chun achang hopsom hou, lengpitwi thahho chule Olive thaoho chu houin thil koina hoa ahin pelut kit tauvin ahi.
13 And I made treasurers ouer the treasures, Shelemiah the Priest, and Zadok the scribe, and of the Leuites, Pedaiah, and vnder their hande Hanan the sonne of Zaccur the sonne of Mattaniah: for they were counted faithfull, and their office was to distribute vnto their brethren.
Keiman thil koina in na vaihom ho: Shelemiah thempupa, Zadok danthu thempa, chule Pedaiah kiti Levi mikhat chu atohnao muncheh a kakoi kitin ahi. Chuleh Mattaniah tupa Zaccur chapa Hanan chu akithopi diuvin kakiojin ahi. Amaho hi seiphat chang cheh ahiuvin hitichun amahon a Levi chan khompi hou chu kitah tahin achandiu achansah soh un ahi.
14 Remember me, O my God, herein, and wipe not out my kindenes that I haue shewed on the house of my God, and on the offices thereof.
Vo ka Pathen katoh phat nau ho hi geldoh in lang ka Pathen houin dingleh akin kitohna hoa kitah tah a katoh hi neisuhmil peh hih beh in.
15 In those dayes saw I in Iudah them, that trode wine presses on ye Sabbath, and that brought in sheaues, and which laded asses also with wine, grapes, and figges, and all burdens, and brought them into Ierusalem vpon the Sabbath day: and I protested to them in the day that they sold vitailes.
Hiche nikho laihin, Judah mihon cholngah nikhoa lengpiga achil’u kamun ahi. Amahon hange mim ahin pouvin sangan chunga akhangdoh un, alengpitwi’ule lengpiga theichang hole thilsoh jouse Jerusalem’ah ahin pouvin cholngah nia joh dingin ahin pouvin ahi. Hijeh chun hiche khoa atohga soh’u ajoh jeh un kaphoh in ahi.
16 There dwelt men of Tyrus also therein, which brought fish and all wares, and solde on the Sabbath vnto the children of Iudah euen in Ierusalem.
Jerusalem a cheng hon Tyre gam a konin nga ahin, kiveina thil jatchom chom ho ahin polut’un ahi. Amaho hin Jerusalem a Judah mite lah a cholngah nikhon ajoh’un ahi!
17 Then reprooued I the rulers of Iudah, and sayd vnto them, What euil thing is this that yee doe, and breake the Sabbath day?
Hijeh chun keiman Judah lamkaite chu kaki maitopin hitin kasei tan ahi; “Ipi dinga nanghon hitobang tah a hi thilse nabol’uva cholngah nikho hi nasuh boh u hitam?”
18 Did not your fathers thus, and our God brought all this plague vpon vs, and vpon this citie? yet yee increase the wrath vpon Israel, in breaking the Sabbath.
“Ipu ipa teuvin hitobanga hi na anatoh jiu jeh a, Pathenin eiho chungle ikhopiuva hi hahsat na ana chuhsah ji hilou ham? Tuhin nanghon hitobang tah hin cholngah nikho nasuboh un Israel chunga Pathen lunghan na khoh cheh nahin polut tauve.
19 And when the gates of Ierusalem beganne to be darke before the Sabbath, I commaded to shut the gates, and charged, that they should not be opened til after the Sabbath, and some of my seruants set I at the gates, that there shoulde no burden be brought in on the Sabbath day.
Hichun keiman cholngah ni masang nilhah kho hungjin phatleh Jerusalem kelkot chu kha jeng ding cholngah ni kichai tokah a honlou ding in thu kapen ahi. Cholngah nia kiveina thilho hung kipoh lut louna dingin keiman lhacha ho phabep chu kelkot kangasah in ahi.
20 So the chapmen and marchants of al marchandise remained once or twise all night without Ierusalem.
Kivei miho le thil jat chom chom joh ho chu Jerusalem khopam’ah khat vei nivei ageh khovah un ahi.
21 And I protested among them, and said vnto them, Why tary ye all night about the wall? If ye do it once againe, I will lay hands vpon you. from that time came they no more on the Sabbath.
Amaho chu kahousen, “Nanghon hiche kulpi bang vella hi ibola geh khovah nahiovem? Hitia hi naum kit’ule kamat diu ahi!” kati. Hitichun amaho cholngah ni ahung kit tapouve.
22 And I sayde vnto the Leuites, that they should clense themselues, and that they shoulde come and keepe the gates, to sanctifie the Sabbath day. Remember me, O my God, concerning this, and pardon me according to thy great mercy.
Hijouchun keiman Levite chu amahole amaho kisutheng dingle cholngah ni athenga umsah jing nadinga kelkot ngah dingin thu kapen ahi. O ka Pathen hiche katoh phat nahi geldoh in! Na mingailut na longlou kidangtah jallin kachunga na hepina kaiyin.
23 In those dayes also I saw Iewes that married wiues of Ashdod, of Ammon, and of Moab.
Hiche phatlai tah chun keiman Judah mi phabep min Ashdod Ammon leh Moab numei ho akichen piuve ti kahin hedoh tan ahi.
24 And their children spake halfe in ye speach of Ashdod, and could not speake in the Iewes language, and according to the language of the one people, and of the other people.
Hiche banna chun, achateu akeh khat in Ashdod paole paodang athouvin, Judah pao atho theipouvin ahi.
25 Then I reprooued them, and cursed them, and smote certaine of them, and pulled off their heare, and tooke an othe of them by God, Yee shall not giue your daughters vnto their sonnes, neither shall ye take of their daughters vnto your sonnes, nor for your selues.
Hijeh chun amaho chu kakimaito pin kasam sen ahi. Miphabep chu kavon chuleh asammu kabolhah pehin ahi. Keiman amaho chu achateu hiche gamma cheng hou neilou ho toh achateu akichensah louna diuvin Pathen min panin kaki hahsel sah in ahi.
26 Did not Salomon the king of Israel sinne by these thinges? yet among many nations was there no King like him: for he was beloued of his God, and God had made him King ouer Israel: yet strange women caused him to sinne.
Hiche jeh a hi Israel leng Solomon achonset lochu? Keiman kaseijin; “Namdang leng amatoh tekah pithei aumpoi, amachu Pathenin angailun Israelte jouse leng ahisah in ahi. Ahiyeng vang'in gamdang mi ajiten achonset sah in ahi.”
27 Shall wee then obey vnto you, to doe all this great euil, and to transgresse against our God, euen to marry strange wiues?
Iti dan a nanghon gamchom a numei ho nakichen piuva Pathen mitmua kitah loutah a na um’uva hitobang tah a chonset na hi natoh dohu hitam?
28 And one of the sonnes of Ioiada the sonne of Eliashib the hie Priest was the sonne in law of Sanballat the Horonite: but I chased him from me.
Thempulen Eliashab chapa Joiada chate lah a khat’in Horon mi Sanballat chanu ana kichenpi jeh in kakom a konin kakai dohtan ahi.
29 Remember them, O my God, that defile the Priesthoode, and the couenant of the Priesthoode, and of the Leuites.
O ka Pathen amaho hi geldoh in, ajehchu amahon thempu hole Levite gimneitah a akitepnau asuboh tauve.
30 Then cleansed I them from all strangers, and appoynted the wardes of the Priestes and of the Leuites, euery one in his office,
Hitichun keiman gamchom mi toh kitimat na jouse chu kasuthengin thempu hole Levite chu akin cheh’u pochil tah a atohna diuvin natoh kagon toh peh cheh in ahi.
31 And for the offring of the wood at times appoynted, and for the first fruites. Remember me, O my God, in goodnes.
Chuleh keiman maicham a ding thing aning lhinga ahin peh na diu leh lhosoh masa apha cha cha ahin pohlutna diuvin kagongtoh in ahi. O ka Pathen, hiche hi keima neikhohsah na in hin gel doh teiyin.
