Nehemiah 11
1 And the princes of the people lived in Jerusalem. And the rest of the people also cast lots, to bring one of ten to dwell in Jerusalem the holy city, and nine parts in the other cities.
Abakulembeze b’abantu ne babeeranga mu Yerusaalemi, abantu abalala ne bakuba akalulu okulonda omuntu omu ku buli bantu kkumi okugenda okubeera mu Yerusaalemi, ekibuga ekitukuvu; omwenda bo ne basigala mu byalo byabwe.
2 The people blessed all the men who willingly offered themselves to dwell in Jerusalem.
Abantu ne beebaza abo bonna abeewaayo okubeera mu Yerusaalemi.
