Nehemiah 7

1 And it comes to pass, when the wall has been built, that I set up the doors, and the gatekeepers are appointed, and the singers, and the Levites,

Bangʼ ka ohinga ne oseger kendo ne aserwako dhoudi kuonde mowinjore, ne ayiero jorit dhorangeye gi jower kod jo-Lawi.

2 and I charge my brother Hanani, and Hananiah head of the palace, concerning Jerusalem—for he [is] as a man of truth, and fearing God above many—

Jerusalem ne irito gi owadwa, Hanani kaachiel gi Hanania ma jatend kama ochiel motegno, nikech ne en ja-ratiro kendo noluoro Nyasaye moloyo joma moko.

3 and I say to them, “Do not let the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the heat of the sun, and while they are standing by let them shut the doors, and fasten, and appoint guards of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, each at his watch, and each in front of his house.”

Ne awachonegi niya, “Dhorangeye ma Jerusalem ok yaw nyaka chiengʼ bed makech. Ka jorit rangach pod tiyo, to nyisgi gilor dhoudi kendo uchieg-gi gi lodi. Bende yieruru joma odak Jerusalem kaka jorit, jomoko uket machiegni gi kuondegi mag rito, to mamoko ubed machiegni gi utegi.”

4 And the city [is] broad on both sides, and great, and the people [are] few in its midst, and there are no houses built;

Koro dala maduongʼ ne lach kendo iye ne nigi thuolo, to ne nitiere ji manok e iye, kendo udi bende ne pod ok pok ochak ger.

5 and my God puts it to my heart, and I gather the nobles, and the prefects, and the people, for the genealogy, and I find a scroll of the genealogy of those coming up at the beginning, and I find written in it:

Omiyo Nyasacha noketo wachno e chunya mondo achok joka ruoth, jotelo, to gi oganda duto mondo ndik nying-gi dala ka dala. Ne ayudo kitabu mondikie nying joma nokwongo duogo. Ma e gima ne ayudo kondiki kanyo:

6 These [are] sons of the province, those coming up of the captives of the expulsion that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon removed—and they return to Jerusalem and to Judah, each to his city—

Kuom jo-Juda mane Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon otero e twech, magi joma noduogo Jerusalem gi Juda, ka ngʼato ka ngʼato dok e dalagi.

64 These have sought their register among those reckoning themselves by genealogy, and it has not been found, and they are redeemed from the priesthood,

Jogi nomanyo nonro mar anywolagi to ne ok ginyal yudogi, omiyo nowegi oko mar joka jodolo kaka joma ochido.

65 and the Tirshatha says to them that they do not eat of the most holy things until the standing up of the priest with [the] Lights and Perfections.

Emomiyo, jatelo maduongʼ nomiyogi chik mondo kik gicham chiemo moro amora mopwodhi manyaka jadolo bedie ma puonjogi gi Urim kod Thumim.

70 And from the extremity of the heads of the fathers they have given to the work; the Tirshatha has given to the treasure, one thousand drams of gold, fifty bowls, five hundred and thirty priests’ coats.

Jotend mier moko nochiwore tiyo tijno. Jatelo nochiwo e od keno dhahabu moromo kilo aboro gi nus, bakunde piero abich kod lep jodolo maromo mia abich gi piero adek mag jodolo.

71 And of the heads of the fathers they have given to the treasure of the work, twenty thousand drams of gold, and two thousand and two hundred pounds of silver.

72 And that which the rest of the people have given [is] twenty thousand drams of gold, and two thousand pounds of silver, and sixty-seven priests’ coats.

Gigo duto mane ochiw gi jogo modongʼne romo kilo mia achiel gi piero abiriyo mar dhahabu, kilo alufu achiel gi robo mar fedha kod lep jodolo maromo piero auchiel gabiriyo.

73 And they dwell—the priests, and the Levites, and the gatekeepers, and the singers, and [some] of the people, and the Nethinim, and all Israel—in their cities, and the seventh month comes, and the sons of Israel [are] in their cities.
