Nehemiah 8
1 And all the people are gathered as one man to the broad place that [is] before the Water Gate, and they say to Ezra the scribe to bring the Scroll of the Law of Moses, that YHWH commanded Israel.
Mipiho chu abonchauvin twiphung kelkotna chun lung gel khat neiyin ahung kikhom un ahi. Hichun amahon Ezra koma Pathenin Israelte nit dinga anapeh Mose dan lekhabu chu ahin pohdoh dingin a ngeh tauve.
2 And Ezra the priest brings the Law before the assembly, both of men and women, and everyone intelligent to hear, on the first day of the seventh month,
Hitichun Lha sagi chule niget lhinnin Ezra thempupan jong hiche danthu lekhabua hi numei le pasal chuleh chapang thu hethei jouse dingin ahin podoh tan ahi.
3 and he reads in it before the broad place that [is] before the Water Gate, from the light until the middle of the day, in front of the men, and the women, and those intelligent, and the ears of all the people [are] toward the Scroll of the Law.
Aman twiphung kelkot phung sung aningkoi laiya chun jingkah apat sunkim geiyin mipiho jouse hetthei dingin ahin simdoh in ahi. Chule mijousen dan lekhabua asimdoh hochu angai soh keiyuvin ahi.
4 And Ezra the scribe stands on a tower of wood that they made for the purpose, and Mattithiah stands near him, and Shema, and Anaiah, and Urijah, and Hilkiah, and Maaseiah, on his right; and on his left Pedaiah, and Mishael, and Malchijah, and Hashum, and Hashbaddana, Zechariah, Meshullam.
Ezra chu hiche ding monga kisem thingpeh kidosang muna chun ading in ahi. Ama jetlam'a chun Mattithiah, Shema, Anaiah, Uriah, Hilkiah chule Maasseiah ana dingun ahi. Chule aveilama chun Pedaiah, Meshael, Malkijah, Hashum, Hashbaddanah, Zechariah, chule Meshullam ana dingun ahi.
5 And Ezra opens the scroll before the eyes of all the people—for he has been above all the people—and at his opening [it] all the people have stood up,
Ezra chu mipihon amusoh keina diuvin mun sanglai’ah ana dingin ahi.
6 and Ezra blesses YHWH, the great God, and all the people answer, “Amen, Amen,” with lifting up of their hands, and they bow and pay respect to YHWH—faces to the earth.
Hitichun Ezra in Pakai Pathen thupitah chu thangvah na anapen ahileh mipiho chun akhut’u ana domsang un, “Amen! Amen!” anatiuvin ahi. Hijeh chun tollah abohkhup mun Pakai chibai aboh’un ahi.
7 And Jeshua, and Bani, and Sherebiah, Jamin, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodijah, Maaseiah, Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Hanan, Pelaiah, and the Levites, giving the people understanding in the Law, and the people, [are] on their station,
Mipiho chu adin mun cheh a adingun, Levite lah a konin Jeshua, Bani, Sherebiah, Jamin, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodiah, Maaseiah, Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Hanan chule Pelaiah chun danthu chu mipiho ahillun ahi.
8 and they read in the Scroll, in the Law of God, explaining—so as to give the meaning, and they give understanding to the convocation.
Amahon Pathen danbua konin asimdoh’un, abih bih in mipiho hetthei tah dingin hilchet na aneiyun ahi.
9 And Nehemiah—he [is] the Tirshatha—says (and Ezra the priest, the scribe, and the Levites who are instructing the people) to all the people, “Today is holy to your God YHWH, do not mourn, nor weep”: for all the people are weeping at their hearing the words of the Law.
Hichejou chun gamvaipo Nehemiah, Ezra thempupa le danthu thempa chule mipi hilla pang Levite chutoh akikhom uvin mipiho jah’a chun aseiyun, “Tuni hi na Pakai Pathen’u maiya nikho theng ahi, lunghem hih’un kap jong kap hih’un,” atiuve. Ajehchu dan thucheng ho chu ajah phat’uva mipichu kapgam jenguva ahitai.
10 And he says to them, “Go, eat fat things, and drink sweet things, and send portions to him for whom nothing is prepared, for today [is] holy to our Lord, and do not be grieved, for the joy of YHWH is your strength.”
Chuleh Nehemiah chun aseiben, “Cheuvin lang an tuitah tah ganeuvin lang donthei atuitah tah gadon un kipa thanop gabol un. Anei joulou ho jong chu nachan’u gachan khompi uvin, ajeh chu tuni hi Pakaiya nikho theng ahi, lungthoina nei hih’un, lung kham na jong nei hih’un, ajeh chu Pakaiya nakipa nau hi nathahat nao ahi,” ati.
11 And the Levites are keeping all the people silent, saying, “Be silent, for today [is] holy, and do not be grieved.”
Leviten jong mipite chu alhamon’un, “Thipbeh in um’un, kap hih un ajeh chu tuni hi nikho theng ahi,” atiuve.
12 And all the people go to eat, and to drink, and to send portions, and to make great joy, because they have understood concerning the words that they made known to them.
Hitichun mipite chu golvah an neding leh don dingin anei joulou ho pan hu ding leh kipah tah a ankong um ding'in apotdoh tauve, ajeh chu amahon Pathen thucheng aja tauvin ahi.
13 And on the second day have been gathered heads of the fathers of all the people, the priests, and the Levites, to Ezra the scribe, even to act wisely concerning the words of the Law.
Ajing nikho nin mipi ho lah a insung lamkai holeh thempu ho, Levi ho acheovin danthu them Ezra chu danthu hilchetbe ding in aga tem’un ahi.
14 And they find written in the Law that YHWH commanded by the hand of Moses, that the sons of Israel dwell in shelters in the celebration, in the seventh month,
Dan chu akholchilbe phat’un Pathenin Mose mangcha a athupeh dungjuiya hiche lhasunga kut kibol sunga chu Israel lhambuh sunga umdiu ahi ti amudoh un ahi.
15 and that they proclaim and cause to pass over all their cities (and in Jerusalem), saying, “Go out to the mountain, and bring leaves of the olive, and leaves of the oil tree, and leaves of the myrtle, and leaves of the palms, and leaves of thick trees, to make shelters as it is written.”
Hiche hi amahon aphondoh uva akhodung jouseu leh Jerusalem khopi sunga aphondoh diu ahin, “Potdoh’uvin lang mol le lhang tinna cheuvin, Olive thingbah ho hijongleh, theimi vom doho hihen lang, tumthing do ho hijongleh thingna do adang dang hijongleh hiche lhambuh kut bolna dingin hinpolut lut’uvin tia kisun ahi,” tia aphondoh diu amudoh tauve.
16 And the people go out, and bring in, and make for themselves shelters, each on his roof, and in their courts, and in the courts of the house of God, and in the broad place of the Water Gate, and in the broad place of the Gate of Ephraim.
Hijeh chun mipi chu apotdoh’uvin akisei chengse chu ahinpolut soh keiyuvin, abonchauvin lhambuh kut chu abolcheh’uvin, ain chung cheh leh alhonglai dung cheh’u chule Pathen houin lhong dunga chun abol uvin, twiphung inning kelkot phunga jong, Ephraim kelkot phunga jong abol abol sohkei juve.
17 And they make—all the assembly of the captives of the captivity—shelters, and they sit in shelters; for the sons of Israel had not done, from the days of Jeshua son of Nun, so to that day, and there is very great joy.
Hitobang tah hin sohchan na a kona hung kile kit miho chun lhambuh kut abol’uvin, chule lhambuh jenga achenguve, ijeh-inem itileh Nun chapa nikholaiya pat hiche nikho geiyahi Israel chaten hitobanga hi anabol khah lou laiyu ahi. Hiche ahi kipa thanopna lentah ana um doh in ahiye.
18 And he reads in the Scroll of the Law of God day by day, from the first day until the last day, and they make a celebration seven days, and on the eighth day a restraint, according to the ordinance.
Hiche kut nisagi sunghin niseh le Ezra in Pathen danthubua konin asimdoh jingin ahi. Chujouvin aniget chan ni in danthu dungjuiyin khoppi thupitah ana bolun ahi.
