< Nehemiah 6 >

1 Now it happened, when it was reported to Sanballat and Tobiah, and to Geshem the Arabian, and to the rest of our enemies, that I had built the wall, and that there was no breach left in it; (though even to that time I had not set up the doors in the gates; )
Kamelmateu Sanballat, Tobiah, Geshem kiti Arab mipale midang hon, kotpi chengse le kelkot dunga katundoh loulai vangun, Jerusalem pal chu akigen chaiyin avanglai mun khatcha aum tapoi ti amudoh phat’un;
2 that Sanballat and Geshem sent to me, saying, "Come, let us meet together at Ha-Kephirim in the plain of Ono." But they intended to harm me.
Sanballat le Geshem in Ono phaicham Hakkephirim kho ah kimutou hite tin thu eihin thot in ahi. Ahinlah amani hin keima chunga thilse agon lhon ahichu keiman kahen ahi.
3 I sent messengers to them, saying, "I am doing a great work, so that I can't come down. Why should the work cease, while I leave it, and come down to you?"
Hijeh chun keiman adonbutna in thu hiti hin kathot in ahi, “Keiman natoh lentah khat katoh ahi, hijeh hin hungthei ponge, nangni toh kimuto ding gunsetna iti kanatoh ka ngah thei ding ham?
4 They sent to me four times after this sort; and I answered them the same way.
Hitobang hin amanin livei jen thu eihin thot lhonin kenjong kadonbut ngai ngaiyin kadonbut in ahi.
5 Then Sanballat sent his servant to me the same way the fifth time with an open letter in his hand,
Anga-vei channan Sanballat in alhachapa kakomah ahin sol in akhut’ah hondohsa lekhathot khat ahinchoiye.
6 in which was written, "It is reported among the nations, and Gashmu says it, that you and the Jews intend to rebel. Because of that, you are building the wall. You would be their king, according to these words.
Hiche chun hitin aseiye, “Hiche vella um nam mite lah a hin thu kithang khat akijan, Geshem in jong hichu adih ahi ati, hichu ahileh nangleh Judah tehin lengpa dounan galbol ding agon ahi, hiche jeh'a hi pal nasemphat’u ahi tithu kithang dungjuiya nanghi leng chang dinga kigong nahi,” akiti.
7 You have also appointed prophets to preach of you at Jerusalem, saying, 'There is a king in Judah.' Now it will be reported to the king according to these words. Come now therefore, and let us take counsel together."
Aman athupoh dungjuiyin nanghin Jerusalem a nangma chung chang phongdoh dingin thempu ho jong apansah e akiti, veuvin Judah gammah lengkhat aumtai; Hiche thu kithang hi lengpa kom a athu hi gale lhun teiding ahi ti nahet ding doltah ahi, hijeh chun hungin lang hiche thuhi seikhom hite.”
8 Then I sent to him, saying, "There are no such things done as you say, but you imagine them out of your own heart."
Hichun keiman thu lethuh na kapen, “Nahin thusei chu khatcha adih aumpoi, aboncha chu nangin nabol thu ngen ahibouve,” kati.
9 For they all would have made us afraid, saying, "Their hands will be weakened from the work, that it not be done. But now, strengthen my hands."
Amaho hin suh kichat a chule keiho hi lunglhah sah ding chule anatoh’u hi suhtang ding atiu ahi. Hijeh chun keiman natoh chu gut tah in kamano jon ahi.
10 I went to the house of Shemaiah the son of Delaiah the son of Mehetabel, who was shut in at his home; and he said, "Let us meet together in God's house, within the temple, and let us shut the doors of the temple; for they will come to kill you; yes, in the night will they come to kill you."
Khonungin, Mehetabal tupa Delaiah chapa Shemai’ah chu a in muna aum na a kaga chen kaga kimupi in ahi, hichun aman hitin aseiye, “Eiho Pathen houin sunga kimu tou hitin kot kikha khumu hite, chule namelmaten tujan na hi nahung thadiu ahi.”
11 I said, "Should such a man as I flee? Who is there that, being such as I, would go into the temple to save his life? I will not go in."
Ahinla keiman kadonbut’in, “Koiham kei din muna dinga kichat jeh a jam ding ngah? Chule koiham kei dinmuna dinga ahinkho kihuhdoh na dinga houin sunga kisel ding ngah? Ahipoi hitia chu ka umlou ding ahi,” kati.
12 I discerned, and look, God had not sent him; but he pronounced this prophecy against me. Tobiah and Sanballat had hired him.
Pathenin ama koma chun thu aseipoi ti kahei, aman hiche gaothu chu Tobiah leh Sanballat in achohdoh lhon na aseisah lhon ahibouve ti kahet ahi.
13 He hired so that I would be afraid, do so, and sin, and that they might have material for an unfavorable report, that they might taunt me.
Amahon kichat sah a chule chonset sah ding eigot lhon ahibouve. Hiteng chuleh oimoa thepmo sah ding eigot lhon ahi.
14 "Remember, my God, Tobiah and Sanballat according to these their works, and also the prophetess Noadiah, and the rest of the prophets, that would have put me in fear."
Vo Ka-Pathen Tobiah leh Sanballat thilse bol ho pihi hingel doh in, chuleh keima kichatsah tei ding eigoa themgaonu Noadiah le themgao dangho jouse jonghi hingel doh in.
15 So the wall was finished in the twenty-fifth day of Elul, in fifty-two days.
Hiti chun ‘Elul’ lha nileh som ni le nga chan ni kasah pat niuva pat ni som nga le ni ni channin pal chu kagen chai tauvin ahi.
16 And it happened, when all our enemies heard of it, and all the surrounding nations saw it, that they lost their confidence; for they recognized that this work was done by our God
Kamel ma hou le avel a cheng mite hon ajahdoh phat’un akicha lheh jengun jum akisa lheh jengun ahi. Hiche hi Pathen panpina jal a atohdoh jouvu ahi ti amahon ahedoh tauvin ahi.
17 Moreover in those days the nobles of Judah sent many letters to Tobiah, and Tobiah's letters came to them.
Hiche ni som nga le ni ni sung hin Tobiah leh Judah mithupi ho kikah a hin lekha thot tamtah akithot to le le jengun ahi.
18 For there were many in Judah sworn to him, because he was the son-in-law of Shecaniah the son of Arah; and his son Jehohanan had taken the daughter of Meshullam the son of Berechiah as wife.
Ajeh chu Judah gam'a mitam tah in ama koma hi kihahsel a kihen ohna ananeiju ahi. Ipijeh inen itileh amahi Arab chapa Secaniah tupa ahin, chujongleh achapa Jehohanan chun Berekiah chapa Meshullam chanu chu akipuiya akichen pi ahi.
19 Also they spoke of his good deeds before me, and reported my words to him. Tobiah sent letters to put me in fear.
Hijeh chun mihon keikoma ama thilpha bol jeng aseiyun; kei thusei jouse jong ama henga alhut jiuvin ahi. Chule Tobiah hin keima suh kichat teina dingin lekha eihin thot jingin ahi.
