< 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,
Mgbe e wuzichara mgbidi ahụ, na mgbe m guzobesịrị ibo nʼọnụ ụzọ ya niile nʼọnọdụ ha, họpụtakwa ndị ọbụ abụ na ndị nche, na ndị Livayị.
2 That I gave my brother Hanani, and Hananiah the ruler of the palace, charge over Jerusalem: for he was a faithful man, and feared God above many.
Enyefere m ọrụ ilekọta Jerusalem nʼaka nwanne m nwoke bụ Hanani, ya na Hananaya onye bụ onyeisi ụlọ ukwu ahụ e wusiri ike, nʼihi na ọ bụ nwoke na-ekwu eziokwu, bụrụkwa onye na-atụ egwu Chineke karịa ọtụtụ ndị ọzọ.
3 And I said unto them, Let not the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun be hot; and while they stand by, let them shut the doors, and bar them: and appoint watches of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, every one in his watch, and every one to be over against his house.
Agwara m ha, “Na-emeghenụ ọnụ ụzọ ama naanị mgbe chi bọziri nke ọma. Kpọchiekwa ha mgbe ndị nche ka nọ na nche. Họpụtakwanụ ndị bi na Jerusalem ka ha bụrụ ndị nche. Ụfọdụ ga-eche nʼebe a họpụtara ha, ụfọdụ ga-eche nʼakụkụ ụlọ nke aka ha.”
4 Now the city was large and great: but the people were few therein, and the houses were not builded.
Nʼoge a obodo ahụ buru ibu dịkwa mbara, ma ndị bi nʼime ya dị ole na ole nʼọnụọgụgụ, ụlọ ndị dị nʼime ya bụkwa ihe ewugharịbeghị.
5 And my God put into mine heart to gather together the nobles, and the rulers, and the people, that they might be reckoned by genealogy. And I found a register of the genealogy of them which came up at the first, and found written therein,
Ya mere Chineke m tinyere ya nʼobi m ka m chịkọta ndị niile a na-asọpụrụ, ndị ọchịchị, na ndị niile bi nʼobodo, maka idebanye aha nʼakwụkwọ ezinaụlọ nʼezinaụlọ. Achọtara m ebe e depụtara usoro ndị mmadụ niile bụ ụzọ lọta Juda nʼoge gara aga. Nke a bụ ihe m chọpụtara edere nʼime ya:
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 came again to Jerusalem and to Judah, every one unto his city;
Ndị a bụ ndị obodo niile a na-achị achị, bụ ndị sitere na ndọta nʼagha nke Nebukadneza, eze Babilọn, onye dọtara ha nʼagha buru ha laa nʼala ọzọ. Ha lọghachitere na Jerusalem nakwa Juda, onye ọbụla nʼobodo nke aka ya.

61 And these were they which went up also from Tel-melah, Tel-haresha, Cherub, Addon, and Immer: but they could not shew their father’s house, nor their seed, whether they were of Israel.
Ndị a bụ ndị ọzọ sitere nʼobodo Tel Mela, Tel Hasha, Kerub, Adọn na Imea, nke dị nʼala Peshịa lọta. Ma ha enweghị ike igosi ezinaụlọ ebe agbụrụ ha si nʼIzrel.

Sitekwa nʼetiti ndị nchụaja: Ndị agbụrụ: Hobaya, Hakoz na Bazilai (nwoke lụrụ ada Bazilai onye Gilead a kpọọ ya aha nʼaha ha).
64 These sought their register among those that were reckoned by genealogy, but it was not found: therefore were they, as polluted, put from the priesthood.
Ndị a chọrọ ebe e depụtara usoro ọmụmụ ha nʼakwụkwọ, ma ha achọtaghị ha nʼihi ya e wepụrụ ha nʼọrụ nchụaja dịka ndị na-adịghị ọcha.
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.
Nʼihi nke a, onyeisi ọchịchị nyere iwu ka ha ghara iri ihe aja dịkarịsịrị nsọ, tutu ruo mgbe a ga-enwe onye nchụaja na-eji Urim na Tumim ajụta ase.
66 The whole congregation together was forty and two thousand three hundred and threescore,
Nkpọkọta ọnụọgụgụ ndị niile lọtara dị iri puku anọ na abụọ, na narị atọ na iri isii,
67 Beside their manservants and their maidservants, of whom there were seven thousand three hundred thirty and seven: and they had two hundred forty and five singing men and singing women.

70 And some of the chief of the fathers gave unto the work. The Tirshatha gave to the treasure a thousand drams of gold, fifty basons, five hundred and thirty priests’ garments.
Ma ụfọdụ nʼime ndịisi ezinaụlọ nyere onyinye maka ọrụ ahụ. Onyeisi ọchịchị tinyere nʼụlọakụ otu puku darik ọlaedo, iri efere ọlaedo ise na uwe ndị nchụaja narị ise na iri atọ.
71 And some of the chief of the fathers gave to the treasure of the work twenty thousand drams of gold, and two thousand and two hundred pound of silver.

73 So the priests, and the Levites, and the porters, and the singers, and some of the people, and the Nethinims, and all Israel, dwelt in their cities; and when the seventh month came, the children of Israel were in their cities.
