< Nehemiah 4 >
1 But it came to pass, that when Sanballat heard that we builded the wall, he was wroth, and took great indignation, and mocked the Jews.
Ita, idi nadamag ni Sanballat a bangbangonenmi ti pader, nangpaluksaw daytoy iti kaungganna, kasta unay ti pungtotna ket linaisna dagiti Judio.
2 And he spake before his brethren and the army of Samaria, and said, What do these feeble Jews? will they fortify themselves? will they sacrifice? will they make an end in a day? will they revive the stones out of the heaps of the rubbish which are burned?
Iti imatang dagiti kakabsatna ken iti armada ti Samaria, kinunana, “Ania ti ar-aramiden dagitoy nga aglulupoy a Judio? Ipagarupda ngata a bangonenda manen ti siudad; a mangidatagdanto kadagiti daton; a malpasda ti trabaho iti maysa nga aldaw; a maisublida iti sigud dagiti naburak a bato kalpasan a nauram dagitoy?
3 Now Tobiah the Ammonite was by him, and he said, Even that which they build, if a fox go up, he shall even break down their stone wall.
Kaduana idi ni Tobias nga Ammonita, ket kinunana, “Uray atap laeng nga aso ti mapan iti rabaw ti bangbangonenda, rebbaenna ti paderda a bato!”
4 Hear, O our Elohim; for we are despised: and turn their reproach upon their own head, and give them for a prey in the land of captivity:
Denggem, O Diosmi, ta maum-umsikami. Isublim kadagiti uloda dagiti panangumsida ket ipalubosmo a matakawanda ken maipanda iti daga a pakaibaludanda.
5 And cover not their iniquity, and let not their sin be blotted out from before thee: for they have provoked thee to anger before the builders.
Saanmo koma nga abbongan ti kinarugitda ken saanmo a punasen ti basolda iti sangoanam, ta pinagpungtotda dagiti mangibangbangon iti pader.
6 So built we the wall; and all the wall was joined together unto the half thereof: for the people had a mind to work.
Isu nga imbangonmi ti pader ket napagkakamangmi amin ti pader agingga iti kagudua ti katayagna gapu ta addaan dagiti tattao iti tarigagay nga agtrabaho.
7 But it came to pass, that when Sanballat, and Tobiah, and the Arabians, and the Ammonites, and the Ashdodites, heard that the walls of Jerusalem were made up, and that the breaches began to be stopped, then they were very wroth,
Ngem idi nadamag da Saballat, Tobias, dagiti taga-Arabia, dagiti Ammonita, ken dagiti Asdodita nga agtultuloy ti trabaho a pannakatarimaan dagiti pader ti Jerusalem, ken naserraanen dagiti narba a paset ti pader, kasta unay ti pungtotda.
8 And conspired all of them together to come and to fight against Jerusalem, and to hinder it.
Nagtutulagda amin ket immayda a mangraut iti Jerusalem ken riribuken daytoy.
9 Nevertheless we made our prayer unto our Elohim, and set a watch against them day and night, because of them.
Ngem nagkararagkami iti Diosmi ket nangisaadkami iti guardia a kas pannakasalaknibmi kadakuada iti aldaw ken rabii gapu iti pangtada.
10 And Judah said, The strength of the bearers of burdens is decayed, and there is much rubbish; so that we are not able to build the wall.
Ket kinuna dagiti tattao ti Juda, “Kumapkapsuten dagiti agaw-awit kadagiti dadagsen. Adu unay dagiti naburak a bato, ket saanmi a kabaelan a tarimaanen ti pader.”
11 And our adversaries said, They shall not know, neither see, till we come in the midst among them, and slay them, and cause the work to cease.
Ket kinuna dagiti kabusormi, “Saandanto a maammoan wenno makita agingga a mapantayo kadakuada ket patayentayo ida, ken pasardengentayo ti trabaho.”
12 And it came to pass, that when the Jews which dwelt by them came, they said unto us ten times, From all places whence ye shall return unto us they will be upon you.
Iti dayta a gundaway, immay dagiti Judio nga agnanaed iti amin a disso iti asidegda ket nakisaritada kadakami iti naminsangapulo a daras, balbalaagandakami maipanggep iti gandatda maibusor kadakami.
13 Therefore set I in the lower places behind the wall, and on the higher places, I even set the people after their families with their swords, their spears, and their bows.
Isu a nangikabilak kadagiti tattao iti kababaan a paset ti pader, kadagiti nalayang a disso. Nangtedak iti batang iti tunggal pamilia. Addaanda kadagiti kampilan, gayang ken pana.
14 And I looked, and rose up, and said unto the nobles, and to the rulers, and to the rest of the people, Be not ye afraid of them: remember YHWH, which is great and terrible, and fight for your brethren, your sons, and your daughters, your wives, and your houses.
Ket kimmitaak, timmakderak, ket kinunak kadagiti panguloen, kadagiti mangiturturay, ken kadagiti tattao, “Saankayo nga agbuteng kadakuada. Laglagipenyo ti Apo, a naindaklan ken nakaskasdaaw. Makirangetkayo para kadagiti pamiliayo, para kadagiti annakyo, para kadagiti assawayo ken para kadagiti babbalayyo.
15 And it came to pass, when our enemies heard that it was known unto us, and Elohim had brought their counsel to nought, that we returned all of us to the wall, every one unto his work.
Ket napasamak nga idi nadamag dagiti kabusormi a naammoanmi dagiti panggepda ken saan a pinagballigi ti Dios dagiti panggepda, nagsublikami amin iti pader, tunggal maysa iti trabahona.
16 And it came to pass from that time forth, that the half of my servants wrought in the work, and the other half of them held both the spears, the shields, and the bows, and the habergeons; and the rulers were behind all the house of Judah.
Isu a manipud iti dayta a tiempo, kagudua laeng kadagiti adipenko ti nagtarimaan iti pader, ken nakaiggem ti kagudua kadakuada iti gayang, kalasag, pana, ken sikakabalda kabayatan a nakatakder dagiti pangulo iti likudan dagiti tattao ti Juda.
17 They which builded on the wall, and they that bare burdens, with those that laded, every one with one of his hands wrought in the work, and with the other hand held a weapon.
Ket dagiti trabahador nga agipatpatakder iti pader ken agaw-awit kadagiti karga ket isu met laeng ti mangbanbantay kadagiti ayanda. Nagtrabaho ti tunggal maysa babaen iti maysa nga ima, ken iggemna ti armasna iti maysa nga imana.
18 For the builders, every one had his sword girded by his side, and so builded. And he that sounded the trumpet was by me.
Imbarikes ti tunggal trabahador ti kampilanna ket kasdiay ti panagtrabahona. Adda iti abayko ti tao a mangpapauni iti trumpeta.
19 And I said unto the nobles, and to the rulers, and to the rest of the people, The work is great and large, and we are separated upon the wall, one far from another.
Kinunak kadagiti panguloen, kadagiti opisial ken kadagiti dadduma pay a tattao, “Dakkel ken atiddog ti trabaho, ken naiwaraswarastayo iti pader, agiinnadayotayo.
20 In what place therefore ye hear the sound of the trumpet, resort ye thither unto us: our Elohim shall fight for us.
Masapul nga apuraenyo ti agturong iti pakangenganyo iti uni ti trumpeta ket aguummongkayo sadiay. Ti Diostayo ti makiranget para kadatayo.”
21 So we laboured in the work: and half of them held the spears from the rising of the morning till the stars appeared.
Isu a nagtrabahokami. Kagudua kadakuada ti nakaiggem kadagiti gayang manipud iti panagbannawag iti agsapa agingga iti iruruar dagiti bitbituen.
22 Likewise at the same time said I unto the people, Let every one with his servant lodge within Jerusalem, that in the night they may be a guard to us, and labour on the day.
Kinunak pay kadagiti tattao iti dayta a tiempo, “Agpatpatnag koma ti tunggal lalaki ken ti adipenna iti tengnga ti Jerusalem, tapno agguardiada kadatayo bayat ti rabii ken trabahadorda iti aldaw.”
23 So neither I, nor my brethren, nor my servants, nor the men of the guard which followed me, none of us put off our clothes, saving that every one put them off for washing.
Isu nga uray siak, wenno dagiti kakabsatko, wenno dagiti adipenko, wenno dagiti lallaki a guardia a simmurot kaniak, awan kadakami ti nagsukat iti badona ken iggem ti tunggal maysa kadakami ti armasna, uray pay no mapan isuna agsakdo.
