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,
Wɔwiee ɔfasuo no, na mesisii apono no wieeɛ no akyi, wɔyiyii apono no anohwɛfoɔ, nnwomtofoɔ ne Lewifoɔ.
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.
Meyii me nuabarima Hanani sɛ ɔne Hanania nni Yerusalem so. Na Hanania yɛ ɔsahene a ɔhwɛ aban no so, na ɔyɛ ɔnokwafoɔ a ɔsuro Onyame sene afoforɔ bebree.
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.
Meka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Adekyeeɛ mu, sɛ ahuhuro ba a, mommma apono no ano nna hɔ. Na sɛ aponoanohwɛfoɔ wɔ adwuma mu koraa a, montoto mu, na mommram no. Monyi wɔn a wɔtete Yerusalem no bi, na wɔnnwɛn a obiara ba ne ɛberɛ a wɔahyɛ ama no no pɛpɛɛpɛ. Ebi bɛwɛn wɔ awɛneeɛ hɔ, na ebi nso awɛn wɔ wɔn ankasa afie anim.”
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.
Saa ɛberɛ no na kuropɔn no so, na emu da hɔ, nanso na nnipa no nnɔɔso. Afie kakra bi na na ɛsisi kuropɔn no mu.
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: —
Na me Onyankopɔn maa me adwene sɛ memfrɛ kuropɔn no mu ntuanofoɔ ne ɔmanfoɔ no nyinaa nhyia, na wɔntwerɛ wɔn din. Na mahunu nnipa a wɔdii ɛkan sane baa Yuda no abusuadua nwoma. Nsɛm a na wɔatwerɛ agu mu nie:
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;
Yeinom ne Yudafoɔ a wɔtwaa wɔn asuo kɔɔ amantam bi so, na wɔfirii nnommumfa mu sane baa Yerusalem ne Yuda nkuro afoforɔ so. Ɔhene Nebukadnessar na ɔtwaa wɔn asuo kɔɔ Babilonia.

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:
Ekuo foforɔ bi a saa ɛberɛ yi wɔfiri Tel-Melah, Tel-Harsa, Kerub, Adon ne Imer sane baa Yerusalem, nanso, wɔantumi ankyerɛ mu yie sɛ, wɔn anaa wɔn abusuafoɔ no ase firi Israel:

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.
Asɔfoɔ baasa a wɔn din de Habaia, Hakos ne Barsilai asefoɔ nso baa Yerusalem. (Na saa Barsilai yi aware Barsilai a ɔfiri Gilead mmammaa no baako ama wafa ɔbaa no abusua din.)
64 These, sought their writing wherein they were registered, but it was not found, —so they were desecrated out of the priesthood;
Nanso, na wɔayera wɔn abusuadua nwoma no enti wɔamma wɔn ho ɛkwan amma wɔansom sɛ asɔfoɔ.
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.
Na amrado no mma ɛkwan mma wɔnnni afɔrebɔ nnuane mu kyɛfa mpo, gye sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ bi de ntonto kronkron bɔ a wɔfrɛ no Urim ne Tumim akyerɛ wɔn gyinabea wɔ saa asɛm yi ho.
66 All the gathered host together, was forty-two thousand, three hundred, and sixty;
Enti nnipa a wɔsane baa Yuda no nyinaa dodoɔ yɛ,
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:
a ɛno akyi, asomfoɔ a wɔyɛ mmaa ne mmarima a ɛmu yɛ nnwomtofoɔ.
68 their horses, were seven hundred, and thirty-six, —their mules, two hundred, and forty-five;
Wɔde apɔnkɔ ahanson ne aduasa nsia mfunumpɔnkɔ ahanu ne aduanan enum.
69 camels, four hundred, and thirty-five, —asses, six thousand, seven hundred, and twenty.
Nyoma ahanan ne aduasa enum ne mfunumu mpem nsia ahanson ne aduonu.
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;
Abusua no bi ntuanofoɔ maa dwumadie no ho akyɛdeɛ. Amrado no too sikakorabea no mu sikakɔkɔɔ pranpran apem, sikakɔkɔɔ atam aduonum ne asɔfotadeɛ ahanum ne aduasa.
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;
Ntuanofoɔ no bi ka bɔɔ mu, too sikakorabea no mu sikakɔkɔɔ pranpran ɔpeduonu, na ebinom nso maa dwetɛ nsania kilogram mpem mmienu ahanu ne aduonu de boaa adwuma no.
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.
Nnipa a wɔaka no nso maa sikakɔkɔɔ pranpran ɔpeduonu ne dwetɛ bɛyɛ kilogram mpem ne ahanu ne asɔfotadeɛ aduosia nson.
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.
