< Nehemiah 9 >
1 In the foure and twentieth day of this moneth the children of Israel were assembled with fasting, and with sackecloth, and earth vpon them.
Te hla kah hnin kul neh hnin li vaengah tah Israel ca rhoek yaehnah neh, tlamhni neh, tingtun uh tih a soah laipi a phul uh.
2 (And they that were of the seede of Israel were separated from all the strangers) and they stoode and confessed their sinnes and the iniquities of their fathers.
Te vaengah Israel kah tiingan tah kholong ca boeih taeng lamloh hoep uh tih pai uh. Amamih kah tholhnah neh a napa rhoek thaesainah te a phoe puei uh.
3 And they stood vp in their place and read in the booke of the Lawe of the Lord their GOD foure times on the day, and they confessed and worshipped the Lord their God foure times.
Amamih paihmuen ah pai uh tih a Pathen BOEIPA kah olkhueng cabu te hnin at ah voei li a tae uh. A tholhnah te voei li a phoe uh phoeiah a Pathen BOEIPA te a bawk uh.
4 Then stoode vp vpon the staires of the Leuites Ieshua, and Bani, Kadmiel, Shebaniah, Bunni, Sherebiah, Bani, and Chenani, and cryed with a loud voyce vnto the Lord their God.
Te vaengah Levi Jeshua, Bani, Kadmiel, Shebaniah, Buni, Sherbiah, Bani, Kenanih tah kham ah pai tih a Pathen BOEIPA te ol a len la a khue.
5 And the Leuites said, euen Ieshua and Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabniah, Sherebiah, Hodiiah, Shebaniah and Pethahiah, Stande vp, and praise the Lord your God for euer, and euer, and let them praise thy glorious Name, O God, which excelleth aboue all thankesgiuing and praise.
Te phoeiah Levi Jeshua, Kadmiel, Bani, Hasabneiah, Sherebiah, Hodiah, Shebaniah, Pethahiah loh; Thoo uh, nangmih kah Pathen YAHWEH te khosuen lamloh kumhal duela uum uh, namah kah thangpomnah ming tah a yoethen pai tih yoethennah neh koehnah cungkuem soah a pomsang pai.
6 Thou art Lord alone: thou hast made heauen, and the heauen of all heauens, with all their hoste, the earth, and all things that are therein, the seas, and al that are in them, and thou preseruest them all, and the host of the heauen worshippeth thee.
YAHWEH amah khaw namah ni. Nang namah bueng loh vaan phoeikah vaan khaw, vaan rhoek neh a caempuei boeih, diklai neh a so kah boeih, tuitunli neh a khuikah boeih te na saii. A cungkuem te na hing sak tih vaan caempuei khaw namah taengah bakop uh.
7 Thou art, O Lord, the God, that hast chosen Abram, and broughtest him out of Vr in Caldea, and madest his name Abraham,
Namah he YAHWEH Pathen ni. Abram te na coelh. Anih te Khalden Ur lamloh na khuen tih a ming te Abraham la na khueh pah.
8 And foundest his heart faithful before thee, and madest a couenant with him, to giue vnto his seede the lande of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, and Perizzites, and Iebusites, and Girgashites, and hast performed thy wordes, because thou art iust.
A thinko loh na mikhmuh ah a uepom te na hmuh dongah Kanaan, Khitti, Amori, Perizzi, Jebusi, Girgashi khohmuen te paek hamla anih taengah paipi na saii. Na dueng dongah a tiingan taengah paek ham khaw na ol te na pai puei.
9 Thou hast also considered the affliction of our fathers in Egypt, and heard their cry by the red Sea,
Egypt ah a pa rhoek kah phacipphabaem te na hmuh. Carhaek tuili ah amih kah a pang te khaw na yaak coeng.
10 And shewed tokens and wonders vpon Pharaoh, and on all his seruants, and on all the people of his land: for thou knewest that they dealt proudely against them: therefore thou madest thee a Name, as appeareth this day.
Miknoek neh kopoekrhai te Pharaoh taengah khaw, a sal boeih taengah khaw, a khohmuen pilnam boeih taengah khaw na tueng sak coeng. Amih taengah a lokhak te na ming dongah tahae khohnin duela namah ming ham na saii.
11 For thou didest breake vp the Sea before them, and they went through the middes of the Sea on dry lande: and those that pursued them, hast thou cast into the bottomes as a stone, in the mightie waters:
Tuitunli pataeng amih mikhmuh ah na phih tih tuitunli laklung lamloh laiphuei dongah kat uh. Tedae amih aka hloem rhoek te tui len khuiah lungto bangla a laedil la na voeih.
12 And leddest them in the day with a pillar of a cloude, and in the night with a pillar of fire to giue them light in the way that they went.
Amih te khothaih ah cingmai tung neh na mawt tih, khoyin ah amih te hmai tung neh na tue dongah a longpuei ah cet uh.
13 Thou camest downe also vpon mount Sinai, and spakest vnto them from heauen, and gauest them right iudgements, and true lawes, ordinances and good commandements,
Sinai tlang ah na suntla tih amih te vaan lamloh na voek. Te vaengah amih te a thuem laitloeknah neh oltak olkhueng khaw, oltlueh neh a then olpaek te khaw na paek.
14 And declaredst vnto them thine holy Sabbath, and commandedst them precepts, and ordinances, and lawes, by the hande of Moses thy seruant:
Namah kah cimcaihnah Sabbath te amih na ming sak tih olpaek, oltlueh neh olkhueng te na sal Moses kut lamloh amih taengah na uen.
15 And gauest them bread from heauen for their hunger, and broughtest forth water for them out of the rocke for their thirst: and promisedst them that they shoulde goe in, and take possession of the land: for the which thou haddest lift vp thine hand for to giue them.
Amih kah khokha khuiah khaw amih te vaan lamkah buh na paek. A tuihalh khuiah amih te thaelpang khui lamkah tui na paek. Amih taengah khohmuen pang hamla kun ham khaw na thui pah. Te te amih taengah paek ham na kut na thueng coeng.
16 But they and our fathers behaued them selues proudely, and hardened their neck, so that they hearkened not vnto thy commandements,
Tedae amih neh a pa rhoek te lokhak uh tih a rhawn te a mangkhak sak uh. Te dongah na olpaek te hnatun uh pawh.
17 But refused to obey, and would not remember thy marueilous works that thou haddest done for them, but hardened their neckes, and had in their heads to returne to their bondage by their rebellion: but thou, O God of mercies, gratious and full of compassion, of long suffring and of great mercie, yet forsookest them not.
Hnatun ham a aal uh tih namah kah khobaerhambae te poek uh pawh. Te te amih taengah na saii dae a rhawn mangkhak uh tih, a boekoek neh amamih pinyennah la mael ham boeilu a tuek uh. Tedae namah tah Pathen kah khodawkngainah, thinphoei neh lungvatnah, thintoek aka ueh, sitlohnah boei neh sitlohnah la na om dongah amih te na hnoo pawh.
18 Moreouer, when they made them a molten calfe (and said, This is thy God that brought thee vp out of the land of Egypt) and committed great blasphemies,
Amamih ham mueihlawn vaitoca a saii uh vaengah pataeng khaw, “He tah Egypt lamloh nang aka khuen na pathen ni,” a ti uh dongah kokhahnah a len a saii uh.
19 Yet thou for thy great mercies forsookest them not in the wildernesse: the pillar of the cloude departed not from them by day to leade them the way, neither the pillar of fire by night, to shew them light, and the way whereby they should goe.
Namah tah na haidamnah len tih amih te khosoek ah na hnoo pawh. Longpuei ah amih mawt hamla khothaih ah amih hmaikah cingmai tung khaw a nong moenih. Hmai tung loh khoyin ah amih te a tue tih longpuei ah te pongpa uh.
20 Thou gauest also thy good Spirite to instruct them, and withheldest not thy MAN from their mouth, and gauest them water for their thirst.
Amih cangbam hamla na Mueihla then te na paek. Na manna te amih ka lamloh na hloh moenih. Amih kah tuihalh vaengah khaw amih te tui na paek.
21 Thou didest also feede them fourtie yeres in ye wildernes: they lacked nothing: their clothes waxed not old, and their feete swelled not.
Amih te kum sawmli na cangbam tih khosoek ah a vaitah uh moenih. A himbai khaw hmawn pawt tih a kho khaw phat uh pawh.
22 And thou gauest them kingdomes and people, and scatteredst them into corners: so they possessed the land of Sihon and the land of ye King of Heshbon, and the land of Og King of Bashan.
Amih te ram neh pilnam na paek tih a kaelcong lam khaw amih na phaeng. Te dongah Sihon khohmuen, Heshbon manghai khohmuen neh Bashan manghai Oga khohmuen te a pang uh.
23 And thou diddest multiplie their children, like the starres of the heauen, and broughtest them into the lande, whereof thou haddest spoken vnto their fathers, that they should goe, and possesse it.
Amih koca rhoek te vaan kah aisi bangla na ping sak tih amih te khohmuen pakhat la na thak. Te te a napa rhoek taengah khaw kun sak ham neh pang sak ham na thui coeng.
24 So the children went in, and possessed the lande, and thou subduedst before them the inhabitants of the lande, euen the Canaanites, and gauest them into their handes, with their Kings and the people of the lande, that they might do with them what they would.
A ca rhoek te kun uh tih khohmuen te a pang uh. Te vaengah amih mikhmuh ah khohmuen kah khosa Kanaan rhoek te na kunyun sak. Te rhoek te a manghai khaw, khohmuen pilnam khaw, a kolonah bangla a taengah saii ham amih kut ah na paek.
25 And they tooke their strong cities and the fat lande, and possessed houses, full of all goods, cisternes digged out, vineyardes, and oliues, and trees for foode in abundance, and they did eate, and were filled, and became fat, and liued in pleasure through thy great goodnesse.
Te vaengah khopuei cakrhuet neh khohmuen laithen rhoek a loh uh. Thennah cungkuem aka bae im khaw, tuito a vueh tangtae, misurdum neh olive khaw, caak thing cungkuem la, a pang uh. A caak uh tih a cung uh phoeiah tah tha uh. Te dongah namah kah thennah neh muep hnae uh.
26 Yet they were disobedient, and rebelled against thee, and cast thy Lawe behinde their backes, and slewe thy Prophets (which protested among them to turne them vnto thee) and committed great blasphemies.
Te pataeng a koek tih nang te n'tloelh uh. Na olkhueng te a nam la a rhoe uh tih amih te namah taengla mael sak ham amih taengah aka laipai na tonghma rhoek te a ngawn uh phoeiah kokhahnah muep a saii uh.
27 Therefore thou deliueredst them into the hande of their enemies that vexed them: yet in the time of their affliction, when they cryed vnto thee, thou heardest them from the heauen, and through thy great mercies thou gauest them sauiours, who saued them out of the hande of their aduersaries.
Te dongah amih te a rhal kut ah na paek tih amih te a daengdaeh uh. Tedae amih kah citcai tue ah tah namah taengah pang uh tih namah loh vaan lamkah na yaak. Te cakhaw na haidamnah a len neh amih te khangnah na paek tih amih te a rhal kut lamloh na khang.
28 But when they had rest, they returned to doe euill before thee: therefore leftest thou them in the hande of their enemies, so that they had the dominion ouer them, yet when they conuerted and cryed vnto thee, thou heardest them from heauen, and deliueredst them according to thy great mercies many times,
Te phoeiah amih te na mikhmuh ah boethae saii ham a muel la mael uh. Te dongah amih te a thunkha kut dongla na hnoo tih amih te a taemrhai uh. Te vaengah mael uh tih namah taengah a pang uh hatah namah loh vaan lamkah na yaak. A tue te yet khuiah amih te na haidamnah neh na huul.
29 And protestedst among them that thou mightest bring them againe vnto thy Lawe: but they behaued them selues proudely, and hearkened not vnto thy commandements, but sinned against thy iudgements (which a man should doe and liue in them) and pulled away the shoulder, and were stiffenecked, and woulde not heare.
Amih te na olkhueng dongla mael sak ham a taengah na rhalrhing sak. Tedae a lokhak uh dongah na olpaek neh na laitloeknah te hnatun uh pawh. Amih taengkah a tholh uh te hlang loh a vai tih amih taengah nunan a hing pah. Te vaengah laengpang a duen uh tih boe a koek uh dongah a rhawn mangkhak neh ol hnatun uh pawh.
30 Yet thou diddest forbeare them many yeeres, and protestedst among them by thy Spirite, euen by the hande of thy Prophets, but they woulde not heare: therefore gauest thou them into the hande of the people of the lands.
Amih te kum a sen na dangrhoek tih amih taengah na Mueihla neh na tonghma rhoek kut lamloh na rhalrhing sak dae hnakaeng uh pawh. Te dongah amih te diklai pilnam kut ah na paek.
31 Yet for thy great mercies thou hast not consumed them, neither forsaken them: for thou art a gracious and mercifull God.
Tedae na haidamnah a len dongah amih te a bawtnah hil na saii moenih. Namah te lungvatnah neh thinphoei Pathen la na om dongah amih te na hnoo moenih.
32 Nowe therefore our God, thou great God, mightie and terrible, that keepest couenant and mercie, let not all the affliction that hath come vnto vs, seeme a litle before thee, that is, to our Kings, to our princes, and to our Priests, and to our Prophets, and to our fathers, and to all thy people since the time of the Kings of Asshur vnto this day.
Te dongah kaimih kah Pathen tah boeilen hlangrhalh neh rhih om Pathen pawn ni. Paipi neh sitlohnah khaw a ngaithuen. Bongboepnah cungkuem he na mikhmuh ah a mailai moenih. Te te kaimih soah, kaimih kah manghai rhoek soah, kaimih kah mangpa soah, kaimih kah khosoih rhoek soah, kaimih kah tonghma rhoek soah, a pa rhoek soah, na pilnam boeih soah khaw Assyria manghai tue lamloh tahae khohnin duela ha tueng.
33 Surely thou art iust in all that is come vpon vs: for thou hast dealt truely, but we haue done wickedly.
Kaimih taengla aka thoeng boeih soah khaw namah na dueng bal pueng. Oltak la na saii dongah ka boe uh coeng.
34 And our kings and our princes, our Priests and our fathers haue not done thy Lawe, nor regarded thy commandements nor thy protestations, wherewith thou hast protested among them.
Ka manghai rhoek, ka mangpa rhoek, ka khosoih rhoek neh a pa rhoek long khaw na olkhueng te vai uh pawh. Amih taengah na rhalrhing sak bangla na olpaek taeng neh na olphong taengah khaw a hnatung uh moenih.
35 And they haue not serued thee in their kingdome, and in thy great goodnesse that thou shewedst vnto them, and in the large and fat lande which thou diddest set before them, and haue not conuerted from their euill workes.
Amih te a ram khuiah khaw na thennah neh a taengah muep na paek. Khohmuen ah hubung neh lothen te amih mikhmuh ah na paek dae na taengah thothueng uh pawt tih a khoboe thae lamloh mael uh pawh.
36 Beholde, we are seruants this day, and the lande that thou gauest vnto our fathers, to eate the fruite thereof, and the goodnesse thereof, beholde, we are seruants therein.
Kaimih tah tihnin ah sal la ka poeh uh coeng he. Khohmuen te khaw a thennah neh a thaih caak hamla a pa rhoek taengah na paek coeng dae kaimih tah a khuiah sal la ka om coeng he.
37 And it yeeldeth much fruit vnto the kings whom thou hast set ouer vs, because of our sinnes: and they haue dominion ouer our bodyes and ouer our cattell at their pleasure, and we are in great affliction.
Ka tholh uh dongah kaimih soah na khueh manghai rhoek ham tah a cangvuei khaw a bom pah. Te vaengah kaimih pum soah a taemrhai tih ka rhamsa soah a kolonah bangla a saii uh. Te dongah citcai neh muep ka om uh.
38 Now because of all this we make a sure couenant, and write it, and our princes, our Leuites and our Priestes seale vnto it.
He boeih ham khaw kaimih loh olkamnah ka saii uh tih ka daek uh. Te vaengah kaimih kah mangpa rhoek, Levi rhoek neh khosoih rhoek taengah catui ka hnah uh.
