< 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; )
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 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.
nangipatulod kaniak iti mensahe da Sanballat ken Gesem a kunada, “Umayka, agsasaraktayo iti kapatadan ti Ono.” Ngem ginandatdak a dangran.
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?"
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 They sent to me four times after this sort; and I answered them the same way.
Namin-uppat a nangipatulodda kaniak iti isu met laeng a mensahe, ket isu met laeng ti insungbatakko kadakuada tunggal mangipatulodda iti mensahe.
5 Then Sanballat sent his servant to me the same way the fifth time with 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 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.
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 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."
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 Then I sent to him, saying, "There are no such things done as you say, but you imagine them out of your own heart."
Ket nangipatulodak iti mensahe kenkuana a kunak, “Awan ti kasta a banbanag a napasamak a kas iti ibagbagam, pinarbom dagitoy iti pusom.”
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."
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 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."
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 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."
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 I discerned, and look, God had not sent him; but he pronounced this prophecy against me. Tobiah and Sanballat had hired him.
Naamirisko a saan a ti Dios ti nangibaon kenkuana, ngem ketdi nangipadto isuna iti maibusor kaniak. Tinangdanan isuna da Sanballat kenTobias.
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.
Tinangdananda isuna a mangbutbuteng kaniak, tapno aramidek ti ibagbagana ket agbasolak, iti kasta ket mapadakesda ti naganko ken maibabaindak.
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."
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 So the wall was finished in the twenty-fifth day of Elul, in fifty-two days.
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 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
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 Moreover in those days the nobles of Judah sent many letters to Tobiah, and Tobiah's letters came 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 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.
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 spoke of his good deeds before me, and reported my words to him. Tobiah sent letters to put me in fear.
Imbagada met kaniak ti maipapan kadagiti nasasayaat nga aramidna ken dagiti sasaok kenkuana. Nangipatulod ni Tobias kadagiti surat kaniak tapno butbutngennak.
