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,
Vinaki’ iareo amy andro zay ty boke’ i Mosè am-pijanjiña’ ondatio, le tendrek’ ao te tsy mahazo mimoak’ am-pivorin’ Añahare ao t’i nte-Amone naho t’i nte-Moabe;
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.
amy t’ie tsy nifanalaka amo ana’ Israeleo hinday mofo naho rano, te mone kinarama’ iareo t’i Balame hamatse iareo; fe nafoten’ Añaharen-tika ho fitahiañe i fatsey.
3 Now when they had heard the Lawe, they separated from Israel all those that were mixed.
Aa ie nahajanjiñe Hake iereo le nambaha’ iareo am’ Israele ze hene tamingañe tsy ki’e.
4 And before this had the Priest Eliashib the ouersight of the chamber of the house of our God, being kinsman to Tobiah:
Ie taolo’ Izay, i Eliasibe mpisoroñe tinendre hifehe o efets’ efen’ anjomban’ Añaharen-tikañeo, ie longo i Tobià
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.
le hinajari’e ho aze ty efetse jabajaba fampipohañe o enga-mahakamao naho i embokey naho o fanakeo naho o fahafolon’ ampembao, ty divay vaho ty menake natolotse, ie liliy amo nte-Levio naho amo mpisaboo naho amo mpañambeñeo; vaho o engan-kelahelam-pisoroñeo.
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.
Toe tsy e Ierosalaime ao iraho henane zay iaby; fa nimb’ amy mpanjakay añe amy taom-paha-telopolo-ro’ ambi’ i Artaksastà mpanjaka’ i Baveley; ie modo ty andro tsiampeampe le nihalaly t’ie hienga i mpanjakay;
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,
aa ie nivotrake e Ierosalaime ao naho naharendreke ty haratiañe nanoe’ i Eliasibe ho a i Tobià, ie nañajary efetse amo efets’ efen’ Anjomban’ Añahareo,
8 And it grieued me sore: therefore I cast forth all the vessels of the house of Tobiah out of the chamber.
le niforoforo, fonga nahifiko alafe’ i efetsey o kilankan’ akiba’ i Tobiao.
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.
Liniliko amy zao, le niliove’ iereo o efetseo; le nampoliko ao ze haraotse amy anjomban’ Añaharey, miharo amo enga-mahakamao naho i embokey.
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.
Tendrek’ ahy ka te tsy natolotse amo nte-Levio ty anjara’ iareo; aa le songa niavotse mb’ an-tete’e añe o nte-Levio naho o mpisabo nimpitoloñeo.
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.
Natretreko amy zao o mpifeheo ami’ty hoe: Aa vaho akore te naforintsiñe ty anjomban’ Añahare? Aa le natontoko iereo naho sindre najadoko an-toe’e eo
12 Then brought all Iudah the tithes of corne and of wine, and of oyle vnto the treasures.
vaho ninday ty fahafolon’ ampemba naho ty divay naho ty menake mb’ am-pañajam-bara ao t’Iehoda iaby.
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.
Le nanoeko mpifehe o fañajam-barao t’i Selemià mpisoroñe naho i Tsadoke mpanokitse, vaho amo nte-Iehodao: i Pedaià naho i Kanàne ana’ i Zakore ana’ i Matanià ho mpiama’e; amy t’ie natao ho migahiñe, vaho lili’ iareo ty fanjarañe amo rahalahi’eo.
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.
Tiahio iraho ry Andrianañahareko ty amy zay, le ko fòra’o o sata soa nanoeko amy anjomban’ Añaharekoy naho o fitoloñañe azeo.
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.
Nitreako amy andro rezay, e Iehodà ao ty mpandialia fampipiritan-divay ami’ty Sabotse naho ty nimoak’ ao nilogologo ampemba naho nampijiny aze ami’ty borìke; naho ty divay, ty valoboke naho ty sakoañe naho ze atao kilankañe vaho nazilike am’ Ierosalaime ao ami’ty andro Sabata; le nendahako amy andro nandetàha’ iareo i mahakamaiy.
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.
Nimoneñe ao ka o nte-Tsore mpinday fiañe naho ze hene kilanka’eo, nandetak’ amo ana’ Iehodao naho e Ierosalaime ao ami’ty Sabotse.
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?
Aa le nendahako o mpiaolo’ Iehodao ami’ty hoe: Ino ze o haloloañe anoe’ areo zao? kanao mañota-faly ami’ty andro Sabata.
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.
Tsy Izay hao ty nanoen-droae’ areo nampifetsahan’ Añaharen-tika amantika naho ami’ty rova toy o hankàñe iaby zao? Te mone tompea’ areo am’ Israele ty haviñerañe t’ie mandilatse amo Sabotseo.
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.
Aa ie fa nihamaieñe o lalambei’ Ierosalaimeo aolo’ ty Sabata, le liniliko te harindriñe o lalambeio naho liniliko t’ie tsy ho sokafeñe ampara’ te modo ty Sabotse vaho najadoko hifelek’ o lalambeio ty ila’ o mpitorokoo tsy mone hazilik’ ao ami’ty andro Sabata o kilankañeo.
20 So the chapmen and marchants of al marchandise remained once or twise all night without Ierusalem.
Teo te nitobe alafe’ Ierosalaime ao indraike ndra indroe o mpandetake naho mpanao takinak’ amy ze karaza kilankañe iabio;
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.
le hinatahatako ami’ty hoe: Ino ty itobea’ areo marine’ o kijolio? Ie mb’e ahere’ areo le ho zevoñeko am-pitàñe. Mifototse amy zay tsy nionjo-mb’eo ami’ty Sabotse iereo.
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.
Ie amy zao liniliko o nte-Levio ty hañefe-batañe naho homb’ amo lalambeio hañambeñe ty hamasiña’ ty andro Sabata. Tiahio ty amako ka zao ry Andrianañahareko vaho arovo ami’ty hara’elahim-pitretreza’o.
23 In those dayes also I saw Iewes that married wiues of Ashdod, of Ammon, and of Moab.
Nitreako amy andro rezay ka te nanambaly rakemba nte-Asdode naho nte-Amone vaho nte-Moabe o nte-Iehodào;
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.
le o ana’eo, ty ila’e nirehake an-tsaontsi’ i Asdode fa tsy nahafirehake an-tsaontsi’ Iehoda, songa ami’ty fireha’ ondati’eo avao;
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.
aa le natreatréko, nafako, linafako ty ila’e naho nonorako o maroi’eo vaho nampifantàko aman’ Añahare: Ko atolo’ areo amo ana-dahi’ iareoo o anak’ ampela’ areoo, ndra mañenga o anak’ ampela’ iareo ho amo ana-dahi’ areoo ndra ho am-bata’ areo.
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.
Tsy nanan-kakeo amy rezay hao t’i Selomò mpanjaka? Ie amo fifeheañe màroy, leo raike tsy nanam-panjaka nañirinkiriñe aze naho nikokoan’ Añahare vaho nanoen’ Añahare mpanjaka’ Israele iaby; fe nampanan-tahiñe aze o rakemba ambahinio.
27 Shall wee then obey vnto you, to doe all this great euil, and to transgresse against our God, euen to marry strange wiues?
Aa vaho hitrao-drehak’ ama’ areo hao zahay hanoa’ areo o haloloañe zao, ty hikitrofan-draha raty aman’ Añaharen-tika am-pañengañe valy ambahiny?
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.
Le nataoko soike ty ana’ Ioiadà, ana’ i Eliasibe mpisorom-bey, amy t’ie vinanto’ i Sanbalate nte-Koroneo.
29 Remember them, O my God, that defile the Priesthoode, and the couenant of the Priesthoode, and of the Leuites.
Tiahio iereo ry Andrianañahareko, amy t’ie nahativa ty fisoroñañe naho ty fañina amo mpisoroñeo vaho amo nte-Levio.
30 Then cleansed I them from all strangers, and appoynted the wardes of the Priestes and of the Leuites, euery one in his office,
Izay ty nikotriñeko iareo amy ze hene raha ambahiny naho tinendreko ty fitoroña’ o mpisoroñeo naho o nte-Levio, songa amo tolon-draha’eo;
31 And for the offring of the wood at times appoynted, and for the first fruites. Remember me, O my God, in goodnes.
naho ty fanoloran-katae naho o andro tinendreo vaho o loha-voao. Tiahio iraho ho ami’ty hasoa ry Andrianañahareko.
