Nehemiah 6
1 And it comes to pass, when it has been heard by Sanballat, and Tobiah, and by Geshem the Arabian, and by the rest of our enemies, that I have built the wall, and there has not been left in it a breach (also, until that time I had not 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 sends, also Geshem, to me, saying, “Come and we meet together in the villages, in the Valley of Ono”; and they are thinking to do to me evil.
nangipatulod kaniak iti mensahe da Sanballat ken Gesem a kunada, “Umayka, agsasaraktayo iti kapatadan ti Ono.” Ngem ginandatdak a dangran.
3 And I send to them messengers, saying, “A great work I am doing, and I am not able to come down; why does the work cease when I let it alone, and have 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 send to me, according to this word, four times, and I return them [word] according to this word.
Namin-uppat a nangipatulodda kaniak iti isu met laeng a mensahe, ket isu met laeng ti insungbatakko kadakuada tunggal mangipatulodda iti mensahe.
5 And Sanballat sends to me, according to this word, a fifth time, his servant, and 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 it is written in it, “Among the nations it has been heard, and Gashmu is saying: You and the Jews are thinking to rebel, therefore you are building the wall, and you have been to them for a king—according to these words!
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 also, you have appointed prophets to call for you in Jerusalem, saying, A king [is] in Judah, and now it is heard by the king according to these words; and now come, and we 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 And I send to him, saying, “It has not been according to these words that you are saying, for from your own heart you are devising 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 all of them are making us afraid, saying, “Their hands are too feeble for the work, and it is not done”; and now, 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 have entered the house of Shemaiah son of Delaiah, son of Mehetabeel—and he is restrained—and he says, “Let us meet at the house of God, at the inside of the temple, and we shut the doors of the temple, for they are coming to slay you—indeed, by night they are coming to slay you.”
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 say, “A man such as I—does he flee? And who as I, that goes into the temple, and lives? I do 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 discern, and behold, God has not sent him, for in the prophecy he has spoken to me both Tobiah and Sanballat hired him,
Naamirisko a saan a ti Dios ti nangibaon kenkuana, ngem ketdi nangipadto isuna iti maibusor kaniak. Tinangdanan isuna da Sanballat kenTobias.
13 so that he [is] a hired worker, that I may fear and do so, and I had sinned, and it had been to them for an evil name that they may reproach me.
Tinangdananda isuna a mangbutbuteng kaniak, tapno aramidek ti ibagbagana ket agbasolak, iti kasta ket mapadakesda ti naganko ken maibabaindak.
14 Be mindful, O my God, of Tobiah, and of Sanballat, according to these his works, and also, of Noadiah the prophetess, and of the rest of the prophets who have been making 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 the wall is completed in the twenty-fifth of Elul, on the fifty-second day;
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 comes to pass, when all our enemies have heard, and all the nations who are all around us see, that they fall greatly in their own eyes, and know that by our God has this work been done.
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 Also, in those days the nobles of Judah are multiplying their letters going to Tobiah, and those of Tobiah are coming to 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 are sworn to him, for he [is] son-in-law to Shechaniah son of Arah, and his son Jehohanan has taken the daughter of Meshullam son of Berechiah;
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, they have been speaking of his good deeds before me, and they have been taking my words out to him; Tobiah has 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.
