< Nehemiah 1 >

1 [the] words of Nehemiah [the] son of Hacaliah and it was in [the] month of (Kislev *Q(k)*) year twenty and I I was in Susa the citadel.
Hacaliah chapa Nehemiah tohdoh chengse ho chu ahi, Artaxerxes in lengvai apoh kal kum somni lhin kum Kislev lhasungin, keima Nehemiah hi gamsung’a khopi lenpen Susa khopi sunga kana um'in ahi.
2 And he came Hanani one of brothers my he and people from Judah and I asked them about the Jews the escaped remnant who they had survived from the captivity and on Jerusalem.
Kasopi ho lah a mikhat Hanani kitipa chun mi phabep khat toh Judah gam'a konin eihung vil’un ahi. Keiman amaho chu Juda teho Babylon a asohchan nauva akona ana kile kit ho chu itobang nauvem chule Jerusalem chu itobang nam tithu kana dongin ahi.
3 And they said to me the survivors who they have survived from the captivity there in the province [are] in trouble great and in disgrace and [the] wall of Jerusalem [has been] broken down and gates its they have been burned with fire.
Amahon hiti hin eidonbut uve, “Sohchan naova konna hung kile Judate chu, hinkho hahsa tah le Avella cheng namdan ten anoise lheh uve, Chule Jerusalem kulpi bang chu akisuchim nia pat, kelkot ho jouse jong meiya ana kihal lhah gam jou apat semphat louvin aum e,” ti eiseipeh un ahi.
4 And it was when heard I - the words these I sat down and I wept and I mourned! days and I was fasting and praying before [the] God of the heavens.
Hiche thuhi kajah phat in katou lha jengin kakap jah tai. Chuti chun nikho phabep sung chun lunghem tah in an ka-ngol’in chule van Pathen koma kataovin ahi.
5 And I said I beg you O Yahweh [the] God of the heavens the God great and awesome [who] keeps the covenant and covenant loyalty to [those who] love him and to [those who] keep commandments his.
“O Pakai, van Pathen, nathupeh nit hole nangma ngailu jingho chunga na milungset nale nakitepna chepi jinga oupe tah le tijat umtah Pathen nahi!
6 May it be please ear your attentive and eyes your open to listen to [the] prayer of servant your which I [am] praying before you this day by day and night on [the] people of Israel servants your and [am] confessing on [the] sins of [the] people of Israel which we have sinned to you and I and [the] house of father my we have sinned.
Nami Israelte dinga sun le jana kataona hi venlang chule kataona hi neihin ngaipeh in! Ajeh chu keiho hi nangma douna a chonse kahi tauve, keima insung le keima tah jeng jong kachonse tauve tia kaphondoh ahi.
7 Surely we have acted corruptly to you and not we have kept the commandments and the statutes and the judgments which you commanded Moses servant your.
Chule nalhachapa Mose a kona neipeh’u nathupeh ho le chonna dan chule neithu gah na ho kanit pouvin melse tah in kachonse tauve.
8 Remember please the word which you commanded Moses servant your saying you you will act unfaithfully I I will scatter you among the peoples.
Chule nangman nalhachapa Mose koma nanaseisa, “Nangho keima koma nakitah lou’ule keiman chitin namtin laha kathe cheh ding nahiuve.
9 And you will turn back to me and you will keep commandments my and you will observe them if it will be banished [one] your at [the] end of the heavens from there I will gather them (and I will bring them *Q(k)*) to the place where I have chosen to cause to dwell name my there.
Amavang nangho kaheng’a nahung kile hei’uva kathu peh nanit’uva hiche dungjuiya chu nachon’uva ahileh leiset kol mong geiya ana kithe chehsa hijong leu chun kamin dopsang na dinga keiman kagon pehnau gam ma chu kahin nung puilut kit diu ahi nati,” chu hingel doh kit’in.
10 And they [are] servants your and people your whom you redeemed by strength your great and by hand your mighty.
Hiche nam mite hi nalhacha te ahiuve, naban gol thahat nale natha neina’a nahuh dohsa ahiuve.
11 I beg you O Lord may it be please ear your attentive to [the] prayer of servant your and to [the] prayer of servants your delighting to fear name your and grant success! please to servant your this day and give him compassion before the man this and I I was cup bearer of the king.
O Pakai kataona hi lungset tah in neingai peh in! Nangma ja bolna a thanomte taona ngaipeh in, tuni hin lengpa khohsah na neimu sah in lang neilolhin sah in; lengpa lungsunga khoto na neimu sah in.” kati. Hiche phatlai chun, lengpa juhaidom in kana pange.
