Nehemiah 8
1 Then all the people gathered themselves together as one man, into the broad way that was before the water-gate, —and they spake unto Ezra the scribe, to bring the book of the law of Moses, which Yahweh had commanded Israel.
sai dukan mutane suka taru kamar mutum guda a dandali a gaban Ƙofar Ruwa. Suka faɗa wa Ezra malamin Doka yă fitar da Littafin Dokar Musa, wanda Ubangiji ya umarta domin Isra’ila.
2 So then Ezra the priest brought the law, before the convocation of both men and women, and all that had understanding to hearken, —on the first day of the seventh month;
Saboda haka a rana ta farko ga watan bakwai, Ezra firist, ya kawo Doka a gaban taro, wanda ya ƙunshi maza da mata da dukan waɗanda za su iya fahimta.
3 and read therein, before the broad place which was before the water-gate, from the time it was light, until the noon of the day, in presence of the men and the women, and such as had understanding, —and, the ears of all the people, were unto the book of the law.
Ya karanta Dokar da ƙarfi daga safe har tsakar rana yayinda yake a kan dandali da yake fuskantar dandali a gaban Ƙofar Ruwa, gaban maza, mata da kuma sauran mutanen da za su iya fahimta. Dukan mutane kuwa suka saurara a hankali ga karatun Littafin Dokar.
4 And Ezra the scribe stood upon a lofty platform of wood, which they had made for the purpose, and there stood, beside him, Mattithiah and Shema and Anaiah and Uriah and Hilkiah and Maaseiah, on his right hand, —and, on his left, Pedaiah and Mishael and Malchijah and Hashum and Hashbaddanah, Zechariah, Meshullam.
Ezra malamin Doka ya tsaya a kan dakalin itacen da aka yi saboda wannan hidima. Kusa da shi a damansa, Mattitiya, Shema, Anahiya, Uriya, Hilkiya da Ma’asehiya suka tsaya; a hagunsa kuma Fedahiya, Mishayel, Malkiya, Hashum, Hashbaddana, Zakariya da Meshullam suka tsaya.
5 And Ezra the scribe opened the book before the eyes of all the people, for, above all the people, was he, —and, when he opened it, all the people, stood up.
Sai Ezra ya buɗe littafin. Dukan mutane kuwa suka gan shi domin yana tsaye a bisa fiye da inda mutane suke tsaye; yayinda ya buɗe littafin kuwa, dukan mutane suka miƙe tsaye.
6 And Ezra blessed Yahweh the great God, —and all the people responded, Amen! Amen! with the lifting up of their hands, —and they bent their heads and bowed themselves down unto Yahweh, with their faces to the ground.
Ezra ya yabi Ubangiji, Allah mai girma; dukan mutane kuwa suka tā da hannuwansu suka amsa, “Amin! Amin!” Sa’an nan suka sunkuya suka yi wa Ubangiji sujada da fuskokinsu har ƙasa.
7 And, Jeshua and Bani and Sherebiah, Jamin, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodiah, Maaseiah, Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Hanan, Pelaiah, and the Levites, did cause the people to understand the law, the people, remaining in their places.
Lawiyawa, wato, su Yeshuwa, Bani, Sherebiya, Yamin, Akkub, Shabbetai, Hodiya, Ma’asehiya, Kelita, Azariya, Yozabad, Hanan da Felahiya, suka koyar da mutane a cikin Dokar yayinda mutane suke a tsaye a can.
8 So they read in the book of the law of God, distinctly, —and, giving the sense, caused them to understand the reading.
Suka karanta daga Littafin Dokar Allah, suna sa kowa ya gane, suna kuma ba da fassarar domin mutane su fahimci abin da ake karatu.
9 Then Nehemiah—he, was the governor—and Ezra the priest the scribe, and the Levites who were causing the people to understand, said unto all the people, To-day, is, holy, unto Yahweh your God, do not mourn, nor weep, —for, weeping, were all the people, when they heard the words of the law.
Sa’an nan Nehemiya gwamna, Ezra firist da kuma wanda yake malamin Doka, da Lawiyawa waɗanda suke koyar da mutane, suka ce musu duka, “Wannan rana mai tsarki ce ga Ubangiji Allahnku. Kada ku yi makoki ko kuka.” Gama dukan mutane suna ta kuka yayinda suke sauraran kalmomin Dokar.
10 So he said unto them—Go your way, eat the fat and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared, for holy is the day, unto our Lord, —and be not grieved, for, the joy of Yahweh, is your strength.
Nehemiya ya ce, “Ku koma gidajenku ku ci abinci mai kyau, ku sha abin sha mai zaƙi, ku kuma aika wa wanda ba shi da shi. Wannan rana mai tsarki ce ga Ubangijinmu. Kada ku yi baƙin ciki, gama farin cikin Ubangiji shi ne ƙarfinku.”
11 And, the Levites, were quieting all the people, saying—Hush! for, the day, is holy, —and be not grieved.
Lawiyawa suka rarrashi mutane duka suna cewa, “Ku natsu, gama wannan rana ce mai tsarki. Kada ku yi baƙin ciki.”
12 And all the people went their way, to eat and to drink, and to send portions, and to make great rejoicing, —because they had understood the words which were made known unto them.
Sa’an nan dukan mutane suka koma gidajensu suka ci, suka sha, suka aika wa wanda ba shi da abinci, gama yanzu sun fahimci kalmomin da aka karanta musu.
13 And, on the second day, were gathered together—the ancestral heads of all the people, the priests and the Levites, unto Ezra the scribe, —even to give attention unto the words of the law.
A rana ta biyu ga wata, shugabannin iyalai, tare da firistoci da Lawiyawa, suka taru kewaye da Ezra malamin Doka don su mai da hankali ga kalmomin Dokar.
14 And they found written in the law, —that Yahweh gave command through Moses, that the sons of Israel should dwell in booths, during the festival of the seventh month;
Suka tarar a rubuce a cikin Doka wadda Ubangiji ya umarta ta wurin Musa, cewa Isra’ilawa su zauna a bukkoki a lokaci bikin watan bakwai
15 and that they should publish and send along a proclamation throughout all their cities and throughout Jerusalem, saying, Forth to the mountain, and bring in branches of olive, and branches of oleaster, and branches of myrtle, and branches of palms, and branches of thick trees, —to make booths, as it is written.
kuma cewa ya kamata su yi shelar wannan magana, su kuma yaɗa ta a duk garuruwansu da kuma cikin Urushalima cewa, “Ku fita zuwa cikin ƙasar tudu ku kawo rassa daga itatuwan zaitun da na zaitun jeji, da kuma daga dargaza, da dabino da itatuwa masu ganye, don yin bukkoki”, kamar yadda yake a rubuce.
16 So the people went forth, and brought in, and made themselves booths, every one upon his roof, and in their courts, and in the courts of the house of God, and in the broad place of the water-gate, and in the broad place of the gate of Ephraim.
Sai mutanen suka fita suka dawo da rassa suka kuma yi wa kansu bukkoki a bisa rufin ɗakunansu, a cikin filaye, a shirayin gidan Allah, da ciki dandalin da yake kusa da Ƙofar Ruwa, da kuma a dandalin da yake a Ƙofar Efraim.
17 And all the convocation of them who had returned out of the captivity made booths, and dwelt in booths, for, since the days of Jeshua son of Nun, had not the sons of Israel done so, unto that day, —and there was very great rejoicing.
Dukan jama’ar da suka komo daga zaman bauta suka yi bukkoki suka kuma zauna a cikinsu. Daga kwanakin Yoshuwa ɗan Nun har yă zuwa yau, Isra’ilawa ba su taɓa yin bikinsa haka ba. Mutane suka cika da farin ciki sosai.
18 So he read in the book of the law of God, day by day, from the first day unto the last day, and they kept the festival seven days, and, on the eighth day, a closing feast, according to the regulation.
Kowace rana, daga rana farko zuwa ƙarshe, Ezra ya karanta daga Littafin Dokar Allah. Suka yi bikin kwana bakwai, a rana ta takwas kuma suka yi muhimmin taro bisa ga ƙa’ida.
