Nehemiah 6
1 Now it came to pass, when it came to the hearing of Sanballat, and Tobiyah, and Geshem the Arabian, and the rest of our enemies, that I had built the wall, and that there was no breach left therein, although up to that time I had not yet set up the doors in the gates.
Ita, idi nadamag da Sanballat, Tobias ken Gesem a taga-Arabia ken dagiti dadduma a kabusormi a naibangonkon ti pader ken awanen dagiti paset a nabati nga adda giwangna, nupay saankopay a naikabil dagiti ridaw kadagiti ruangan,
2 That Sanballat and Geshem sent unto me, saying, Come, let us meet together in Kephirim, in the plain of Ono. But they were thinking of doing me mischief.
nangipatulod kaniak iti mensahe da Sanballat ken Gesem a kunada, “Umayka, agsasaraktayo iti kapatadan ti Ono.” Ngem ginandatdak a dangran.
3 And I sent messengers unto them, saying, I am doing a great work, and I cannot come down: why should the work cease, while I leave it lying, and come down to you?
Nangibaonak kadagiti mensahero a mapan kadakuada, a kunada, “Adu ti ar-aramidek ket saanak sumalog. Apay koma a maisardeng ti trabaho inton ibatik daytoy ket sumalogak a mapan kadakayo?”
4 And they sent unto me after this manner four times; and I answered them after the same manner.
Namin-uppat a nangipatulodda kaniak iti isu met laeng a mensahe, ket isu met laeng ti insungbatakko kadakuada tunggal mangipatulodda iti mensahe.
5 Then sent Sanballat unto me in like manner the fifth time his young man with an open letter in his hand:
Imbaon ni Sanballat ti adipenna kaniak iti isu met laeng a wagas iti maikalima a daras, nga adda nakalukat a surat iti imana.
6 Therein was written, It hath been heard among the nations, and Gashmu saith it, that thou and the Jews think of rebelling; wherefore thou art building up the wall; and that thou art to be king unto them, according to these reports.
Naisurat iti daytoy, “Naipadamag daytoy kadagiti nasion, ket imbaga pay ni Gesem daytoy, a sika ken dagiti Judio ket agpangpanggep nga agrebelde, dayta ti gapuna a bangbangonenyo manen ti pader. Iti ibagbaga dagitoy a damag, ngannganikan nga agbalin nga arida.
7 And that thou hast also set up prophets to proclaim concerning thee at Jerusalem, saying, He is king in Judah: and now there may be reported to the king something like these words. Now therefore come, and let us take counsel together.
Ket nangdutokka pay kadagiti profeta a mangiwaragawag iti maipapan kenka idiay Jerusalem, a mangibagbaga, 'Adda ti ari idiay Juda!' Masiguradom a madamagto daytoy ti ari. Umayka ngarud ta agtutungtongta koma.”
8 Then I sent unto him, saying, “There hath been done nothing like these reports of which thou speakest; but out of thy own heart thou inventest them.”
Ket nangipatulodak iti mensahe kenkuana a kunak, “Awan ti kasta a banbanag a napasamak a kas iti ibagbagam, pinarbom dagitoy iti pusom.”
9 For they all wished to make us afraid, thinking, Their hands will be withdrawn from the work, so that it will not be done. Now therefore, [O God, ] strengthen my hands.
Gapu ta kayatda amin nga agbutengtayo, ipagpagarupda nga, “Isardengdanto nga agtrabaho, ket saanto a malpas daytoy.” Ngem ita, O Dios, pangngaasim ta papigsaem dagiti imak.
10 And I came also into the house of Shema'yah the son of Delayah the son of Mehetabel, who had shut himself up; and he said, Let us meet together in the house of God, within the temple, and let us lock the doors of the temple; for they are coming to slay thee: yea, in the night are they coming to slay thee.
Napanak iti balay ni Semaias, a putot ni Delaias, a putot ni Mehetabel, ta saanna a mapanawan ti balayna. Kinunana, “Agsarakta koma iti balay ti Dios, iti uneg ti templo, ket irekepta dagiti ridaw ti templo, gapu ta umaydaka patayen. Umayda iti rabii a mangpatay kenka.”
11 And I said, Should a man like me flee? and who is there that is like me, that would go into the temple and live? I will not go in.
Insungbatko, “Tumaray aya met ti lalaki a kas kaniak? Mapan aya met iti templo ti lalaki a kas kaniak tapno agbiagak laeng? Saanak a mapan.”
12 And I perceived that, lo, God had not sent him; but that he pronounced this prophecy over me, because Tobiyah and Sanballat had hired him.
Naamirisko a saan a ti Dios ti nangibaon kenkuana, ngem ketdi nangipadto isuna iti maibusor kaniak. Tinangdanan isuna da Sanballat kenTobias.
13 Therefore was he hired, in order that I should become afraid, and do so, and sin, and that it might serve them for an evil report, so that they might cast reproach upon me.
Tinangdananda isuna a mangbutbuteng kaniak, tapno aramidek ti ibagbagana ket agbasolak, iti kasta ket mapadakesda ti naganko ken maibabaindak.
14 Think, O my God, of Tobiyah and Sanballat according to these their works, and also of No'adyah the prophetess, and the rest of the prophets, who wished to make me afraid.
Laglagipem O Diosko, da Tobias ken Sanballat, ken amin nga inaramidda. Laglapipem met ti mammadto a babai a ni Nodias ken dagiti dadduma a mammadto a nangbutbuteng kaniak.
15 And so was the wall finished on the twenty and fifth day of the month Elul, in fifty and two days.
Isu a nalpas ti pader iti maikaduapulo ket lima nga aldaw iti bulan ti Elul, kalpasan iti limapulo ket dua nga aldaw.
16 And it came to pass, when our enemies heard this, and all the nations that were about us saw it, that they sank greatly in their own eyes; and they perceived that by the aid of our God had this work been wrought.
Idi nadamag dagiti amin a kabusortayo daytoy, dagiti amin a nasion iti agawlawtayo, nagbutengda ken naibabainda. Ta ammoda a nalpas ti trabaho babaen iti tulong ti Diostayo.
17 Moreover in those days the nobles of Judah despatched frequently their letters unto Tobiyah, and those of Tobiyah came unto them.
Iti daytoy a tiempo, adu a sursurat ti impatulod dagiti natatakneng a tattao ti Juda kenni Tobias, ken nakadanon dagiti surat ni Tobias kadakuada.
18 For many in Judah were sworn friends unto him; because he was the son-in-law of Shechanyah the son of Arach, and Jehochanan his son had taken the daughter of Meshullam the son of Bercehyah.
Ta adu kadagiti taga-Juda ti nagsapata kenkuana, gapu ta isuna ket manugang ni Secanias a putot ni Ara. Inasawa ti putotna a ni Jehohanan ti babai a putot ni Mesullam a putot ni Berekias.
19 Also his good deeds were they reporting before me, and my words they used to carry out to him: also Tobiyah sent letters to make me afraid.
Imbagada met kaniak ti maipapan kadagiti nasasayaat nga aramidna ken dagiti sasaok kenkuana. Nangipatulod ni Tobias kadagiti surat kaniak tapno butbutngennak.
