< Nehemiah 4 >
1 But when Sanballat heard that we builded the wall, then was he wroth and sore grieued, and mocked the Iewes,
Keihon pal kasah phat nauva kana toh’u hi Sanballat in ahin hetdoh phat’in alunghang lheh jengin ahi; ahin ama alunghan behseh jeh in Judate chu i-sahloutah in ahousen ahi.
2 And sayde before his brethren and the armie of Samaria, thus he sayde, What doe these weake Iewes? wil they fortifie them selues? wil they sacrifice? will they finish it in a day? will they make the stones whole againe out of the heapes of dust, seeing they are burnt?
Hitihin aloi agolho masangle Samaria sepai lamkai ho masanga hiti hin aseiye, “Hiche Israel mimote le tah lalte hin ipi bola kingaito hiuvaham? Gan kilhaina maicham gahbol mai maiya kona hi nikhat sunga hiche pal hi agah tundoh joujeng diuva angaitou ham? Chule hiche meiyin akahsa song hole bohse nong nai hohi mangcha a tohdoh ding agotnu hintem?” ati.
3 And Tobiah the Ammonite was beside him, and said, Although they buylde, yet if a foxe goe vp, he shall euen breake downe their stonie wall.
Chule akomuva um Ammon mi Tobiah chun hitin ana seiye, “Itobangin kasaphai tijongleu, achunga khun sial khat galhai jongleh chonchim tante,” ati.
4 Heare, O our God (for we are despised) and turne their shame vpon their owne head, and giue them vnto a pray in the lande of their captiuitie,
Hichun keima hiti hin kataove, “Vo Kapa Pathen kataonao hi neihin ngaipeh’un, keiho hi noise tah in eikihouse tauve, hijeh chun eihouset nauhi amaho chunga chuh sah inlang; chule amaho joh migam a sohchangin umsah jotan:
5 And couer not their iniquitie, neither let their sinne be put out in thy presence: for they haue prouoked vs before the builders.
Asuhkhel nau hi nahsah mon koi hih beh in, chule achonset naohi geldao hih beh in, ajeh chu amahohin natongho masang laitah a hin nangma naphin lunghang tauvin ahi,” kati.
6 So we built the wall, and all the wall was ioyned vnto the halfe thereof, and the heart of the people was to worke.
Hitihin keihon khopi pumpi kimvel chu kagen jom toupeh un hiti chun akim kalhut tauvin ahi, ajeh chu mipiten thanom tah in na atongun ahi.
7 But when Sanballat, and Tobiah, and the Arabians, and the Ammonites, and the Ashdodims heard that the walles of Ierusalem were repayred, (for the breaches began to be stopped) then they were very wroth,
Ahinla hitobang tah a hi natoh achal a Jerusalem pal achimsa lai jouse akisemphat hi Sanballat le Tobiah chuleh Arab mite, Amon mite le Ashdod miten ajahdoh phat’un alunghang lheh jeng tauvin ahi.
8 And conspired all together to come and to fight against Ierusalem, and to hinder them.
Hijeh chun amaho hin Jerusalem hindel khuma kisatpia suhboi dingin agong tauvin ahi.
9 The we prayed vnto our God, and set watchmen by them, day and night, because of them.
Ahinlah keiho Pathen hengah kataovun khopi chu kangah’un asun ajan in keiho le keiho kaki veng tauvin ahi.
10 And Iudah said, The strength of the bearers is weakened, and there is much earth, so that we are not able to build the wall.
Hichejou hin Juda mipite natongho la athachol lheh tan, song lhoh dingla atamlheh nalaiyin ahi. Hijeh chun eiho changseh in pal hi saphajou pouhite tin aphun tauvin ahi.
11 Also our aduersaries had sayde, They shall not knowe, neither see, till we come into the middes of them and slay them, and cause the worke to cease.
Alangkhatna kamelma teuvin jong, “Ipi thil soha ham ti ahetdoh kah’uvin, eihon delkhum’u hitin ithagam’uva anatohu hi isuhtang diu ahi,” tin aseiyun ahi.
12 But when the Iewes (which dwelt beside them) came, they told vs ten times, From all places whence ye shall returne, they wil be vpon vs.
Hitia melmate toh cheng khom Judah ho ahungun avel vel in ahung seiyun, “Muntin a kona hunguva eihung delkhum diu ahi,” atiuve.
13 Therefore set I in the lower places behind the wall vpon the toppes of the stones, and placed the people by their families, with their swordes, their speares and their bowes.
Hijeh chun keiman paltom mun nemlang akilang dom mun hoa chun thalchoi angah ding kakoiyin ahi. Chule keiman ama ama insung dungjuiyin chem, tengcha leh moltum kichoiya angah ding jong kaban goltoh in ahi.
14 Then I behelde, and rose vp, and said vnto the Princes, and to the rulers, and to the rest of the people, Be not afrayde of them: remember the great Lord, and fearefull, and fight for your brethren, your sonnes, and your daughters, your wiues, and your houses.
Hiche joujin keiman thil umdan chu kavetoh in, mithupi hole vaihom ho chule mipi dang hochu kakou khomin akomuvah hitin kaseiye, “Melmate jeh khun kicha hih behun! loupitah le thaneitah Pakai chu geldoh un chuleh nasopite, najiteu, nachateu leh na insungu huhnan galsat din pangun,” katin ahi.
15 And when our enemies heard that it was knowen vnto vs, then God brought their counsell to nought, and we turned all againe to the wall, euery one vnto his worke.
Kamelmateu chun athilse gon’u kahehdoh’u chu ajadoh tauvin chuleh Pathenin athilse gon’u chu asuhboipeh phat un, keiho palmuna kana toh nao mun cheh a kakile kit tauve.
16 And from that day, halfe of the yong men did the labour, and the other halfe part of them helde the speares, and shieldes, and bowes, and habergins: and the rulers stoode behinde all the house of Iudah.
Ahinlah hichea konchun kamite akeh khatin bou na atongun, adangsen tengcha akidop’un, lum akichoi’un, chule thalpi akipat’un, thih sangkhol aki’ah sohkei tauve. Chuleh lamkai ho jouse chu Judah mipiho atilkhou in apang jingun ahi.
17 They that buylded on the wall, and they that bare burdens, and they that laded, did the worke with one hand, and with the other helde the sworde.
Chule natong hochun akhut langkhat in athilpoh’u chu atuh’un, chuleh akhut langkhat in manchah akichoi’un ahi.
18 For euery one of the buylders had his sworde girded on his loynes, and so buylded: and he that blewe the trumpet, was beside me.
Hitichun natong ho jouse chun apang peh’uva chem akiko soh keiyun ahi. Chule sumkon mutna pangpa chu mutdinga kigo sadem’in keikoma aum jinge.
19 Then saide I vnto the Princes, and to the rulers, and to the rest of the people, The worke is great and large, and we are separated vpon the wall, one farre from another.
Hichun keiman mithupi hole vaihom ho kom leh mipiho koma chun, kahet themsah in, “Inatoh’u hi akithe jal’in hijeh a chu eiho jong pal gol dungjuiya ikithe thang jengu ahi.
20 In what place therefore ye heare the sound of the trumpet, resort ye thither vnto vs: our God shall fight for vs.
Hiche sumkon gin hi najah tengu leh agina langa chun hindel cheh jengun chutengleh I-Pathen un gal eisat peh dingu ahi,” kati.
21 So we laboured in the worke, and halfe of them helde the speares, from the appearing of the morning, till the starres came foorth.
Keihon jingkah apat nilhah geiyin, chule nisoa pat nilhun geiyin na katongun ahi. Chule mi akeh khat chu manchah kichoi pumin eingah jingun ahi.
22 And at the same time said I vnto the people, Let euery one with his seruant lodge within Ierusalem, that they may be a watch for vs in the night, and labour in the day.
Keiman pal koma cheng ho koma chun Jerusalem khopi sunga hung um dau vin tin kasei pehin ahi. Hitia chu amaho le alhacha hon janleh eingah’uva pangdiu sunteng leh na atohdiu ahi, kati.
23 So neither I, nor my brethren, nor my seruants, nor the men of the warde, (which followed me) none of vs did put off our clothes, saue euery one put them off for washing.
Hiti hin hiche sunghin keiho lah a koima chan kikahin kasopiho ahin, kalhacha ho ahin, keitoh umkhom eingah ho ahin kavon’u chu sopding tilouvin kaladoh khapouve, ajeh chu phattin in manchah kakichoi jingun ahi.
