Nehemiah 7
1 Now it came to pass, when the wall was built, and I had set up the doors, and the porters and the singers and the Levites were appointed,
Wowiee ɔfasu no, na misisii apon no wiee akyi no, yɛfaa apon no anohwɛfo, nnwontofo ne Lewifo.
2 that I gave my brother Hanani, and Hananiah the governor of the castle, charge over Jerusalem: for he was a faithful man, and feared God above many.
Miyii me nuabarima Hanani sɛ ɔne Hanania nni Yerusalem so. Na Hanania yɛ ɔsahene a ɔhwɛ aban no so, na ɔyɛ ɔnokwafo a osuro Nyame sen afoforo bebree.
3 And I said unto them, Let not the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun be hot; and while they stand [on guard], let them shut the doors, and bar ye them: and appoint watches of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, every one in his watch, and every one [to be] over against his house.
Meka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Ɛnsɛ sɛ wobue Yerusalem apon no ano to hɔ kosi sɛ ahuhuru bɛba. Na sɛ aponanohwɛfo no wɔ adwuma mu koraa a, montoto mu na mommram akyi. Munyi wɔn a wɔte Yerusalem no, na bi nnyina hɔ nnwɛn na bi nso mfi wɔn afi a ɛbemmɛn no mu nwɛn.”
4 Now the city was wide and large: but the people were few therein, and the houses were not builded.
Saa bere no na kuropɔn no so, na emu da hɔ, nanso na nnipa no nnɔɔso. Afi kakraa bi na na esisi kuropɔn no mu.
5 And my God put into my heart to gather together the nobles, and the rulers, and the people, that they might be reckoned by genealogy. And I found the book of the genealogy of them which came up at the first, and I found written therein:
Na me Nyankopɔn maa me adwene sɛ memfrɛ kuropɔn no mu ntuanofo ne ɔmanfo no nyinaa nhyia, na wɔnkyerɛw wɔn din. Mihuu nnipa a wodii kan san baa Yuda no anato nhoma. Nsɛm a na wɔakyerɛw agu mu ni:
6 These are the children of the province, that went up out of the captivity of those that had been carried away, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away, and that returned unto Jerusalem and to Judah, every one unto his city;
Eyinom ne Yudafo a wotwaa wɔn asu kɔɔ amantam bi so, na wofii nnommum mu san baa Yerusalem ne Yuda nkurow afoforo so. Ɔhene Nebukadnessar na otwaa wɔn asu kɔɔ Babilonia.

61 And these were they which went up from Tel-melah, Tel-harsha, Cherub, Addon, and Immer: but they could not shew their fathers’ houses, nor their seed, whether they were of Israel:
Kuw foforo bi a saa bere yi wofi Tel-Melah, Tel-Harsa, Kerub, Adon ne Imer san baa Yerusalem, nanso, wɔantumi ankyerɛ mu yiye sɛ, wɔn anaa wɔn asefo no ase fi Israel:

63 And of the priests: the children of Hobaiah, the children of Hakkoz, the children of Barzillai, which took a wife of the daughters of Barzillai the Gileadite, and was called after their name.
Asɔfo baasa a wɔn din de Habaia, Hakos ne Barsilai a wɔyɛ mmusua abiɛsa no nso baa Yerusalem. (Na saa Barsilai yi aware Barsilai a ofi Gilead mmabea no baako ama wafa ɔbea no abusuadin.)
64 These sought their register [among] those that were reckoned by genealogy, but it was not found: therefore were they deemed polluted and put from the priesthood.
Nanso, na wɔayera wɔn anato nhoma no nti wɔmma wɔn ho kwan ansom sɛ asɔfo.
65 And the Tirshatha said unto them, that they should not eat of the most holy things, till there stood up a priest with Urim and Thummim.
Na amrado no mma kwan mma wonnni afɔrebɔ nnuan mu kyɛfa mpo, gye sɛ ɔsɔfo bi wɔ hɔ a ɔnam ntontobɔ kronkron so bisa Awurade.
66 The whole congregation together was forty and two thousand three hundred and threescore,
Enti nnipa a wɔsan baa Yuda no nyinaa dodow yɛ mpem aduanan abien, ahaasa ne aduosia,
67 beside their menservants and their maidservants, of whom there were seven thousand three hundred thirty and seven, and they had two hundred forty and five singing men and singing women.
a ɛno akyi, asomfo mpem ason ahaasa aduasa ason ne nnwontofo mmarima ne mmea ahannu aduanan anum ka ho.
68 Their horses were seven hundred thirty and six; their mules, two hundred forty and five;
Wɔde apɔnkɔ ahanson ne aduasa asia, funumpɔnkɔ ahannu ne aduanan anum.
69 [their] camels, four hundred thirty and five; [their] asses, six thousand seven hundred and twenty.
Yoma ahannan ne aduasa anum ne mfurum mpem asia ahanson ne aduonu kaa wɔn ho.
70 And some from among the heads of fathers’ [houses] gave unto the work. The Tirshatha gave to the treasury a thousand darics of gold, fifty basons, five hundred and thirty priests’ garments.
Abusua no bi ntuanofo maa dwumadi no ho akyɛde. Amrado no too sikakorabea no mu sikakɔkɔɔ nnwetɛbona apem, sikakɔkɔɔ hweaseammɔ aduonum ne asɔfotade ahannum ne aduasa.
71 And some of the heads of fathers’ [houses] gave into the treasury of the work twenty thousand darics of gold, and two thousand and two hundred pounds of silver.
Ntuanofo no bi ka bɔɔ mu, too sikakorabea no mu sikakɔkɔɔ nnwetɛbona mpem aduonu, na ebinom nso maa dwetɛ nsania pɔn mpem abien ne ahanson aduonum de boaa adwuma no.
72 And that which the rest of the people gave was twenty thousand darics of gold, and two thousand pounds of silver, and threescore and seven priests’ garments.
Nnipa a wɔaka no nso maa sikakɔkɔɔ nnwetɛbona mpem aduonu ne dwetɛ bɛyɛ pɔn mpenu ne ahannum ne asɔfotade aduosia ason.
73 So the priests, and the Levites, and the porters, and the singers, and some of the people, and the Nethinim, and all Israel, dwelt in their cities. And when the seventh month was come, the children of Israel were in their cities.
