Nehemiah 7
1 And it came to pass, when the wall was built, and I had set up the doors, —and the doorkeepers and the singers and the Levites had been appointed,
Na rĩrĩ, rũthingo rwarĩka gwakwo rĩngĩ, na niĩ ngĩkorwo njĩkĩrĩte mĩrango ihingo-inĩ-rĩ, nĩrĩo arangĩri a ihingo, na aini, na Alawii maathuurirwo.
2 that I gave Hanani my brother, and Hananiah captain of the castle, charge over Jerusalem, for, he, was a truly faithful man, and revered God above many.
Nĩndatuire Hanani mũrũ wa baba mũrũgamĩrĩri wa Jerusalemu, marĩ na Hanania mũnene wa gĩikaro kĩgitĩre kĩa mũthamaki, tondũ aarĩ mũndũ mwĩhokeku, na agetigĩra Ngai gũkĩra andũ arĩa angĩ.
3 And I said unto them, Let not the gates of Jerusalem be opened until, hot, be the sun, and, while they are standing by, let them close the doors, and make them fast, —setting watches, of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, every one in his watch, and every one over against his own house.
Ngĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ihingo cia Jerusalemu itikahingũragwo, o nginya rĩrĩa riũa rĩrĩkoragwo rĩarĩte. Ningĩ o na rĩrĩa arangĩri a ihingo marĩ wĩra-inĩ, nĩmaikarage mahingĩte mĩrango ĩyo, na makamĩĩkĩra mĩgĩĩko. Ningĩ mũthuure aikari a Jerusalemu matuĩke arangĩri, amwe marangagĩre harĩa matuĩrĩirwo kũrangĩra, na arĩa angĩ marangagĩre hakuhĩ na nyũmba ciao.”
4 Now, the city, was broad on both hands, and large, but, the people, were few in the midst thereof, —and the houses had not been built.
Na rĩrĩ, itũũra rĩa Jerusalemu rĩarĩ inene mũno na rĩkaarama, no andũ arĩa maatũũraga kuo maarĩ anini, na nyũmba itiakoretwo ciakĩtwo rĩngĩ.
5 So then my God put it into my heart, and I gathered together the nobles and the deputies and the people, to register their genealogy, —then found I a register roll, of them who came up at the first, and found written therein: —
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Ngai wakwa akĩnjĩkĩra wendo ngoro-inĩ yakwa wa gũcookanĩrĩria andũ arĩa maarĩ igweta, na anene, na andũ arĩa angĩ nĩguo meyandĩkithie kũringana na nyũmba ciao. Nĩndonire ibuku rĩa marĩĩtwa ma njiaro cia arĩa maarĩ a mbere gũcooka. Ũũ nĩguo ndonire rĩandĩkĩtwo:
6 These, are the sons of the province, who came up from among the Captives of the Exile, whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon did exile, —but they came back to Jerusalem and to Judah, every one to his own city;
Aya nĩo andũ a bũrũri arĩa maacookire kuuma bũrũri ũrĩa maatahĩirwo, arĩa Nebukadinezaru mũthamaki wa Babuloni aatahĩte akamatwara Babuloni bũrũri wa ũkombo (nao magĩcooka Jerusalemu na Juda, o mũndũ itũũra-inĩ rĩake,

61 And, these, are they who came up from Tel-melah, Tel-harsha, Cherub, Addon, and Immer, —but they could not tell their ancestral house, nor their seed, whether, of Israel, they were:
Nao aya nĩo maambatire kuuma matũũra ma Teli-Mela, na Teli-Harasha, na Kerubu, na Adoni, na Imeri, no matingĩonanirie atĩ nyũmba ciao ciarĩ cia njiaro cia Isiraeli:

njiaro cia Delaia, na Tobia, na Nekoda ciarĩ 642.
63 And, of the priests, the sons of Hobaiah, the sons of Hakkoz, —the sons of Barzillai, who had taken of the daughters of Barzillai the Gileadite to wife, and was called after their name.
Na kuuma kũrĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai: njiaro cia Hobaia, na Hakozu, na Barizilai (mũndũ ũrĩa wahikĩtie mwarĩ wa Barizilai ũrĩa Mũgileadi, na eetanagio na rĩĩtwa rĩu).
64 These, sought their writing wherein they were registered, but it was not found, —so they were desecrated out of the priesthood;
Andũ acio nĩmacaririe maandĩko ma nyũmba ciao, no matiigana kũmona, nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩeherio thiritũ-inĩ ya athĩnjĩri-Ngai, magĩtuuo ta andũ maarĩ na thaahu.
65 and the governor told them, they must not eat of the most holy things, —until there should stand up a priest, with Lights and Perfections.
Nake barũthi wa kũu akĩmaatha matikarĩe irio iria therie mũno, o nginya gũkaagĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũratungata na Urimu na Thumimu.
66 All the gathered host together, was forty-two thousand, three hundred, and sixty;
Andũ acio othe marĩ hamwe maarĩ 42,360,
67 besides, their men-servants and maid-servants, were these, seven thousand, three hundred, and thirty-seven, —and, to them, pertained, singing-men and singing-women, two hundred, and forty-five:
gũtatarĩtwo ndungata ciao cia arũme na cia andũ-a-nja 7, 337; ningĩ nĩ maarĩ na aini arũme na andũ-a-nja 245.
68 their horses, were seven hundred, and thirty-six, —their mules, two hundred, and forty-five;
Maarĩ na mbarathi 736, na nyũmbũ 245,
69 camels, four hundred, and thirty-five, —asses, six thousand, seven hundred, and twenty.

70 And, a portion of the ancestral chiefs, gave unto the work, —the governor, gave unto the treasury, of gold, a thousand darics, tossing bowls, fifty, tunics for priests, five hundred, and thirty;
Atongoria amwe a nyũmba nĩmarutire indo ciao nĩ ũndũ wa wĩra ũcio. Barũthi wa kũu nĩaheanire durakima 1,000 cia thahabu, na mbakũri 50, na nguo cia athĩnjĩri-Ngai 530, nacio ikĩigwo kĩgĩĩna-inĩ.
71 and, some of the ancestral chiefs, gave unto the treasury of the work, of gold, twenty thousand darics, —and, of silver, two thousand and two hundred manehs;
Nao atongoria amwe a nyũmba nĩmaheanire indo nĩ ũndũ wa wĩra ũcio, durakima 20,000 cia thahabu, na ratiri 2,200 cia betha, nacio ikĩigwo kĩgĩĩna-inĩ.
72 and, that which the rest of the people gave, was, of gold, twenty thousand darics, and, of silver, two thousand manehs, —and, tunics for priests, sixty-seven.

73 So the priests and the Levites and the door-keepers and the singers and some of the people, and the Nethinim and all Israel, took up their abode in their cities. And, when the seventh month arrived, the sons of Israel were in their cities.
Athĩnjĩri-Ngai, na Alawii, na aikaria a ihingo, na aini na ndungata cia hekarũ, marĩ hamwe na andũ amwe ao, na andũ arĩa angĩ a Isiraeli magĩaka na magĩtũũra matũũra-inĩ mao.
