Nehemiah 7
1 And it came to pass, when the wall was built, that I set up the doors; and then were appointed the gatekeepers and the singers and the [other] Levites [to their office].
Wɔwiee ɔfasuo no, na mesisii apono no wieeɛ no akyi, wɔyiyii apono no anohwɛfoɔ, nnwomtofoɔ ne Lewifoɔ.
2 And I gave my brother Chanani, and Chananyah the commander of the fortress, charge over Jerusalem; for he was esteemed a faithful man, and one that feared God these many days.
Meyii me nuabarima Hanani sɛ ɔne Hanania nni Yerusalem so. Na Hanania yɛ ɔsahene a ɔhwɛ aban no so, na ɔyɛ ɔnokwafoɔ a ɔsuro Onyame sene afoforɔ bebree.
3 And I said unto them, The gates of Jerusalem must not be opened until the sun be hot; and while ye stand by, let them shut the doors, and do ye bar them; and station watches of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, every one in his watch, and every one opposite to his house.
Meka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Adekyeeɛ mu, sɛ ahuhuro ba a, mommma apono no ano nna hɔ. Na sɛ aponoanohwɛfoɔ wɔ adwuma mu koraa a, montoto mu, na mommram no. Monyi wɔn a wɔtete Yerusalem no bi, na wɔnnwɛn a obiara ba ne ɛberɛ a wɔahyɛ ama no no pɛpɛɛpɛ. Ebi bɛwɛn wɔ awɛneeɛ hɔ, na ebi nso awɛn wɔ wɔn ankasa afie anim.”
4 But the city was roomy in space and large: while the people therein were few, and the houses were not yet built.
Saa ɛberɛ no na kuropɔn no so, na emu da hɔ, nanso na nnipa no nnɔɔso. Afie kakra bi na na ɛsisi kuropɔn no mu.
5 Then did my God put it into my heart, and I assembled together the nobles, and the rulers, and the people, that they might give in their genealogy; and I found a register of the genealogy of those who were come up at the first, and I found written therein:
Na me Onyankopɔn maa me adwene sɛ memfrɛ kuropɔn no mu ntuanofoɔ ne ɔmanfoɔ no nyinaa nhyia, na wɔntwerɛ wɔn din. Na mahunu nnipa a wɔdii ɛkan sane baa Yuda no abusuadua nwoma. Nsɛm a na wɔatwerɛ agu mu nie:
6 These arc the children of the province, that came up out of the captivity of the exiles, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried into exile, and who returned to Jerusalem and to Judah, every one unto his own city;
Yeinom ne Yudafoɔ a wɔtwaa wɔn asuo kɔɔ amantam bi so, na wɔfirii nnommumfa mu sane baa Yerusalem ne Yuda nkuro afoforɔ so. Ɔhene Nebukadnessar na ɔtwaa wɔn asuo kɔɔ Babilonia.

61 And these were they who came up from Thel-melach, Thelcharsha, Kerub, Addon, and Immer, but they could not tell their family division and their descent, whether they were of Israel.
Ekuo foforɔ bi a saa ɛberɛ yi wɔfiri Tel-Melah, Tel-Harsa, Kerub, Adon ne Imer sane baa Yerusalem, nanso, wɔantumi ankyerɛ mu yie sɛ, wɔn anaa wɔn abusuafoɔ no ase firi Israel:

63 And of the priests: The children of Chobayah, the children of Hakkoz, the children of Barzillai who had taken a wife from the daughters of Barzillai the Gil'adite, and was called after their name.
Asɔfoɔ baasa a wɔn din de Habaia, Hakos ne Barsilai asefoɔ nso baa Yerusalem. (Na saa Barsilai yi aware Barsilai a ɔfiri Gilead mmammaa no baako ama wafa ɔbaa no abusua din.)
64 These sought for their family register, but it was not found: wherefore they were excluded, as unfit, from the priesthood.
Nanso, na wɔayera wɔn abusuadua nwoma no enti wɔamma wɔn ho ɛkwan amma wɔansom sɛ asɔfoɔ.
65 And the Thirshatha said unto them, that they should not eat of the most holy things, till there should stand up a priest with the Urim and Thummim.
Na amrado no mma ɛkwan mma wɔnnni afɔrebɔ nnuane mu kyɛfa mpo, gye sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ bi de ntonto kronkron bɔ a wɔfrɛ no Urim ne Tumim akyerɛ wɔn gyinabea wɔ saa asɛm yi ho.
66 The whole congregation together was forty and two thousand three hundred and sixty:
Enti nnipa a wɔsane baa Yuda no nyinaa dodoɔ yɛ,
67 Besides these were their man-servants and their maid-servants, of whom there were seven thousand three hundred thirty and seven: and they had two hundred and forty and five singing men and singing women.

68 Their horses were seven hundred thirty and six; their mules, two hundred forty and five;
Wɔde apɔnkɔ ahanson ne aduasa nsia mfunumpɔnkɔ ahanu ne aduanan enum.
69 [Their] camels, four hundred thirty and five: [their] asses, six thousand seven hundred and twenty.
Nyoma ahanan ne aduasa enum ne mfunumu mpem nsia ahanson ne aduonu.
70 And a portion of the chiefs of the divisions gave unto the work. The Thirshatha gave to the treasure, of gold one thousand drachms, fifty bowls, five hundred and thirty coats for the priests.
Abusua no bi ntuanofoɔ maa dwumadie no ho akyɛdeɛ. Amrado no too sikakorabea no mu sikakɔkɔɔ pranpran apem, sikakɔkɔɔ atam aduonum ne asɔfotadeɛ ahanum ne aduasa.
71 And some of the chiefs of the divisions gave to the treasury of the work, of gold twenty thousand drachms, and of silver two thousand and two hundred manehs.
Ntuanofoɔ no bi ka bɔɔ mu, too sikakorabea no mu sikakɔkɔɔ pranpran ɔpeduonu, na ebinom nso maa dwetɛ nsania kilogram mpem mmienu ahanu ne aduonu de boaa adwuma no.
72 And what the rest of the people gave was, of gold twenty thousand drachms, and of silver two thousand manehs, and priests coats sixty and seven.
Nnipa a wɔaka no nso maa sikakɔkɔɔ pranpran ɔpeduonu ne dwetɛ bɛyɛ kilogram mpem ne ahanu ne asɔfotadeɛ aduosia nson.
73 So the priests, and the Levites, and the gatekeepers, and the singers, and some of the people, and the temple-servants, and all Israel, dwelt in their cities: and so came round the seventh month, while the children of Israel were in their cities.
