Nehemiah 1
1 The words of Nehemiah the son of Hachaliah. And it came to pass in the month Chisleu, in the twentieth year, as I was in Shushan the palace,
Dagiti sasao ni Nehemias a putot ni Hacalias: Ita, napasamak nga iti bulan ti Kislev, iti maika-duapulo a tawen, bayat nga addaak iti nasarekedkedan a siudad ti Susa,
2 That Hanani, one of my brethren, came, he and certain men of Judah; and I asked them concerning the Jews that had escaped, which were left of the captivity, and concerning Jerusalem.
ket immay ti maysa kadagiti kabsatko a lallaki a ni Hanani, a kaduana dagiti sumagmamano a tattao ti Juda, ket sinaludsodko kadakuada ti maipanggep kadagiti Judio a nakalibas, dagiti nabatbati a Judio nga adda sadiay, ken maipanggep iti Jerusalem.
3 And they said unto me, The remnant that are left of the captivity there in the province are in great affliction and reproach: the wall of Jerusalem also is broken down, and the gates thereof are burned with fire.
Kinunada kaniak, “Dagiti adda iti probinsia a nakalasat iti pannakaibalud ket kasta unay ti panagsagaba ken pannakaibabainda gapu ta narba ti pader ti Jerusalem, ken napuoran dagiti ruangan daytoy.”
4 And it came to pass, when I heard these words, that I sat down and wept, and mourned certain days, and fasted, and prayed before the Elohim of heaven,
Ket apaman a nangngegko dagitoy a sasao, nagtugawak ket nagsangitak, adu nga aldaw a nagladladingitak, nagay-ayunar ken nagkarkararagak iti sangoanan ti Dios ti langit.
5 And said, I beseech thee, O YHWH Elohim of heaven, the great and awesome El, that keepeth covenant and mercy for them that love him and observe his commandments:
Kinunak, “O Yahweh, sika ti Dios ti langit, ti Dios a naindaklan ken nakakaskasdaaw, a napudno iti katulaganna ken kinamanangngaasina kadagiti mangipatpateg kenkuana ken mangtungtungpal kadagiti bilinna.
6 Let thine ear now be attentive, and thine eyes open, that thou mayest hear the prayer of thy servant, which I pray before thee now, day and night, for the children of Israel thy servants, and confess the sins of the children of Israel, which we have sinned against thee: both I and my father's house have sinned.
Denggem ti kararagko ken lukatam dagiti matam tapno mangngegmo ti kararag ti adipenmo nga ikararagko ita iti sangoanam iti aldaw ken rabii para kadagiti tattao ti Israel nga adipenmo. Ak-aklonek dagiti basol dagiti tattao ti Israel, a nagbasolanmi kenka. Nagbasolak ken ti balay ti amak.
7 We have dealt very corruptly against thee, and have not kept the commandments, nor the statutes, nor the judgments, which thou commandedst thy servant Moses.
Nagtignaykami a sidadangkes kenka, ken saanmi a tinungpal dagiti bilin, dagiti alagaden ken dagiti paglintegan nga imbilinmo kenni Moises nga adipenmo.
8 Remember, I beseech thee, the word that thou commandedst thy servant Moses, saying, If ye transgress, I will scatter you abroad among the nations:
Lagipem ti sao nga imbilinmo kenni Moises nga adipenmo, 'No agbalinkayo a saan a napudno, iwaraskayonto kadagiti nasion,
9 But if ye turn unto me, and keep my commandments, and do them; though there were of you cast out unto the uttermost part of the heaven, yet will I gather them from thence, and will bring them unto the place that I have chosen to set my name there
ngem no agsublikayo kaniak ken surotenyo dagiti bilbilinko ken aramidenyo dagitoy, uray no naiwaras dagiti tattaoyo agingga iti kaadaywan a lugar, ummongekto ida manipud sadiay ket ipankonto ida iti dayta a lugar a pinilik a pagtalinaedan ti naganko.'
10 Now these are thy servants and thy people, whom thou hast redeemed by thy great power, and by thy strong hand.
Ita, isuda dagiti adipenmo ken tattaom nga insalakanmo babaen iti naindaklan a pannakabalinmo ken iti bileg ti imam.
11 O YHWH, I beseech thee, let now thine ear be attentive to the prayer of thy servant, and to the prayer of thy servants, who desire to fear thy name: and prosper, I pray thee, thy servant this day, and grant him mercy in the sight of this man. For I was the king's cupbearer.
O Yahweh, agpakpakaasiak kenka, denggem ita ti kararag ti adipenmo, ken iti kararag dagiti adipenmo a naragsak nga agdayaw iti naganmo. Pagballigiem ti adipenmo ita nga aldaw ken ipaayam isuna ti asi iti imatang daytoy a tao.” Agserserbiak idi a kas mangimatmaton ti pannakaidasar iti arak ti ari.
