< Nehemiah 7 >

1 Now it came to pass, when the wall was built, and I had set up the doors, and the porters and the singers and the Levites were appointed,
Tango misala ya kotonga mir esilaki mpe natiaki bizipelo ya bikuke, batiaki bakengeli bikuke, bayembi mpe Balevi: bato na bato na mosala na bango.
2 that I gave my brother Hanani, and Hananiah the governor of the castle, charge over Jerusalem; for he was a faithful man, and feared God above many.
Napesaki mokumba ya kokamba engumba Yelusalemi epai ya Anani, ndeko na ngai ya mobali, mpe epai ya Anania, moyangeli ya engumba batonga makasi, oyo, koleka bato ebele, azalaki moto ya sembo mpe azalaki kotosa Nzambe.
3 And I said unto them: 'Let not the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun be hot; and while they stand on guard, let them shut the doors, and bar ye them; and let watches be appointed of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, every one in his watch, and every one to be over against his house.'
Nalobaki na bango: — Bikuke ya Yelusalemi esengeli te kofungwama liboso ete moyi engala, mpe, na pokwa, bakokanga makasi bizipelo na yango mpe bakokotisa yango bikangelo, wana bakengeli bikuke bakozala nanu na bisika na bango ya mosala. Botia lisusu lokola bakengeli, bavandi ya Yelusalemi: bamoko bakozala na bisika na bango ya mosala, mpe bamosusu bakokengela pembeni ya bandako na bango.
4 Now the city was wide and large; but the people were few therein, and the houses were not builded.
Nzokande, etando ya engumba Yelusalemi ezalaki monene mpe ekenda mosika makasi, kasi bato kati na yango bazalaki moke mpe bandako etongamaki nanu te.
5 And my God put into my heart to gather together the nobles, and the rulers, and the people, that they might be reckoned by genealogy. And I found the book of the genealogy of them that came up at the first, and I found written therein:
Nzambe na ngai apesaki ngai makanisi ya kosangisa bankumu, bakambi mpe bato mosusu mpo na kotanga motango na bango kolanda mabota na bango. Bongo, namonaki buku ya bokoko ya ba-oyo bazongaki bato ya liboso longwa na bowumbu. Tala makomi oyo namonaki kuna:
6 These are the children of the province, that went up out of the captivity of those that had been carried away, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away, and that returned unto Jerusalem and to Judah, every one unto his city;
Tala bato ya etuka ya Yuda, oyo Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, amemaki na bowumbu; mpe wuta na bowumbu, bazongaki na Yelusalemi mpe na Yuda, moto na moto na engumba na ye;

61 And these were they that went up from Tel-melah, Tel-harsha, Cherub, Addon, and Immer; but they could not tell their fathers' houses, nor their seed, whether they were of Israel:
Tala molongo ya bato oyo bawutaki na bowumbu, na bingumba Teli-Mela, Teli-Arisha, Kerubi-Adoni mpe Imeri, kasi balongaki te kolakisa ete mabota na bango ya botata ewuta na Isalaele:

Mpe kati na Banganga-Nzambe: bakitani ya Obaya, ya Akotsi mpe ya Barizilayi oyo abengamaki « Barizilayi » mpo ete abalaki mwana mwasi ya Barizilayi, moto ya Galadi.
64 These sought their register, that is, the genealogy, but it was not found; therefore were they deemed polluted and put from the priesthood.
Balukaki mikanda oyo bakoma bakombo ya bakoko na bango, kasi batikalaki komona yango te. Boye balongolaki bango na mosala ya bonganga-Nzambe, pamba te bazalaki mbindo.
65 And the Tirshatha said unto them, that they should not eat of the most holy things, till there stood up a priest with Urim and Thummim.
Moyangeli apekisaki bango kolia bilei ya bule kino tango Nganga-Nzambe moko akotuna toli ya Yawe na tina na bango na nzela ya Urimi mpe Tumimi.
66 The whole congregation together was forty and two thousand three hundred and threescore,
Motango ya lisanga mobimba ya bato oyo bawutaki na bowumbu ezalaki nkoto tuku minei na mibale na nkama misato na tuku motoba,
67 beside their men-servants and their maid-servants, of whom there were seven thousand three hundred thirty and seven; and they had two hundred forty and five singing men and singing women.

68 Their horses were seven hundred thirty and six; their mules, two hundred forty and five;
69 their camels, four hundred thirty and five; their asses, six thousand seven hundred and twenty.
bashamo nkama minei na tuku misato na mitano mpe ba-ane nkoto motoba na nkama sambo na tuku mibale.
70 And some from among the heads of fathers' houses gave unto the work. The Tirshatha gave to the treasury a thousand darics of gold, fifty basins, five hundred and thirty priests' tunics.
Bakambi mingi ya mabota bapesaki makabo oyo bakataki kopesa wuta na mitema na bango moko, mpo na misala ya kotonga Tempelo. Moyangeli apesaki na libenga ya misala mbongo ya bibende ya wolo nkoto moko, bakopo tuku mitano mpe banzambala nkama mitano na tuku misato ya mosala ya bonganga-Nzambe.
71 And some of the heads of fathers' houses gave into the treasury of the work twenty thousand darics of gold, and two thousand and two hundred pounds of silver.
Bakambi mosusu ya mabota bapesaki na libenga ya misala mbongo ya bibende ya wolo nkoto tuku mibale mpe mbongo ya bibende ya palata nkoto mibale na nkama mibale na tuku mibale.
72 And that which the rest of the people gave was twenty thousand darics of gold, and two thousand pounds of silver, and threescore and seven priests' tunics.
Batikali kati na bato bapesaki mbongo ya bibende ya wolo nkoto tuku mibale, mbongo ya bibende ya palata nkoto mibale mpe banzambala tuku motoba na sambo ya mosala ya bonganga-Nzambe.
73 So the priests, and the Levites, and the porters, and the singers, and some of the people, and the Nethinim, and all Israel, dwelt in their cities. And when the seventh month was come, and the children of Israel were in their cities,
Banganga-Nzambe, Balevi, bakengeli bikuke, bayembi, basali ya Tempelo, ndambo kati na bato mpe bato nyonso ya Isalaele bavandaki kati na bingumba na bango moko. Tango sanza ya sambo ekomaki, bana ya Isalaele bakomaki kovanda kati na bingumba na bango.
