Nehemiah 2
1 And it was - in [the] month of Nisan year twenty of Artaxerxes the king wine [was] before him and I took the wine and I gave [it]! to the king and not I had been sad before him.
Waggaa digdammaffaa bara Arxeksis Mootichaatti jiʼa Niisaan keessa yeroo daadhiin wayinii isaaf dhiʼeeffametti ani daadhii wayinii sana fuudhee mootichaaf nan kenne. Ani fuula isaa duratti gaddee hin beeku;
2 And he said to me the king why? - [is] face your sad and you not you [are] sick [is] nothing this that except sadness of heart and I was afraid greatly very.
kanaafuu mootichi, “Ati utuu hin dhukkubsatin fuulli kee maaliif waan gadde fakkaata? Kun gadda garaa keessaati malee waan biraa miti” naan jedhe. Anis akka maleen sodaadhe;
3 And I said to the king the king for ever may he live why? not will they be sad face my that the city [the] house of [the] tombs of ancestors my [is] desolate and gates its they have been consumed by fire.
mootichaanis, “Yaa mootii bara baraan jiraadhu! Utuu magaalaan abbootiin koo keessatti awwaalaman barbadooftee jirtuu, utuu karrawwan ishees ibiddaan barbadeeffamanii jiranuu fuulli koo maaliif hin gaddu?” nan jedhe.
4 And he said to me the king on what? this [are] you requesting and I prayed to [the] God of the heavens.
Mootichis, “Akka ani maal siif godhu barbaadda?” naan jedhe. Kanaafuu ani Waaqa samii kadhadheen
5 And I said to the king if [is] on the king good and if he is good servant your before you that you will send me to Judah to [the] city of [the] tombs of ancestors my and I will rebuild it.
akkana jedhee mootichaaf nan deebise; “Yoo wanni kun mooticha gammachiisee garbichi kee fuula kee duratti surraa argate, akka ani magaalattii deebisee ijaaruuf gara Yihuudaa, gara magaalaa abbootiin koo itti awwaalamanitti na ergi.”
6 And he said to me the king and the queen-consort - [was] sitting beside him until when? will it be journey your and when? will you return and it was good before the king and he sent me and I gave! to him a time.
Kana irratti mootichi utuma mootittiin isa bira teessuu, “Karaan kee yeroo hammamii fudhata? Atis yoomi deebita?” jedhee na gaafate. Na erguun fedhii mootichaa taʼe; anis yeroo nan murteeffadhe.
7 And I said to the king if [is] on the king good letters let people give to me to [the] governors of beyond the River that they will allow to pass through me until that I will come to Judah.
Ammas ani akkanan isaan jedhe; “Yoo wanni kun mooticha gammachiise, akka isaan hamma ani Yihuudaa gaʼutti nagaadhaan na dabarsaniif bulchitoota Laga Efraaxiis Gamaatiif xalayaan anaaf haa kennamu.
8 And a letter to Asaph [the] keeper of the forest which [belongs] to the king that he will give to me wood to make beams for [the] gates of the citadel which [belongs] to the house and for [the] wall of the city and for the house which I will go into it and he gave [them] to me the king according to [the] hand of God my good on me.
Akkasumas akka inni laaxaa ani ittiin dareeraa karra daʼannoo mana qulqullummaa, dallaa magaalaa sanaa fi kan mana ani itti galuuf jiruu tolfadhu naaf kennuuf Aasaaf eegduu bosona mootichaaf xalayaan naaf haa barreeffamu.” Sababii harki Waaqa koo tolaan sun narra tureef mootichi waan ani kadhadhe naa kenne.
9 And I went to [the] governors of beyond the River and I gave! to them [the] letters of the king and he had sent with me the king commanders of [the] army and horsemen.
Kanaafuu ani gara bulchitoota Gama Laga Efraaxiis dhaqee xalayoota mootichaa isaanitti nan kenne. Mootichi ajajjoota waraanaa fi abbootii fardeenii na wajjin ergee ture.
10 And he heard Sanballat the Horonite and Tobiah the servant the Ammonite and it was displeasing to them displeasure great that he had come someone to seek good for [the] people of Israel.
Sanbalaax Hooroonichii fi Xoobbiyaan qondaaltichi Amoon sun yeroo waan kana dhagaʼanitti sababii namni Israaʼeliif waan tolaa yaadu tokko dhufeef akka malee ni raafaman.
11 And I came to Jerusalem and I was there days three.
Ani ergan Yerusaalem dhaqee bultii sadii achi bubbulee booddee
12 And I arose - night I and men - a few with me and not I had told to anyone what? [was] God my putting into heart my to do for Jerusalem and an animal there not [was] with me that except the animal which I [was] riding on it.
halkaniin kaʼee namoota muraasa wajjin nan baʼe. Ani waan Waaqni koo akka ani Yerusaalemiif godhu garaa koo keessa kaaʼe nama tokkotti iyyuu hin himne. Horii tokkicha ani yaabbadhe sana malee horiin tokko illee na bira hin turre.
13 And I went out! by [the] gate of the valley night and to [the] face [the] Spring of [the] Dragons and to [the] gate of the dung and I was examining [the] walls of Jerusalem which (they - [were] broken down *Q(K)*) and gates its they had been consumed by fire.
Ani halkaniin Karra Sululaatiin gad baʼee gara Boolla Bishaan Jawweetii fi gara Karra Dikee dhaqee dallaa Yerusaalem kan diigamee fi karrawwan ishee kanneen ibiddaan barbadeeffaman sana irra naannaʼeen ilaale.
14 And I passed on to [the] gate of the spring and to [the] pool of the king and there not [was] room for the animal to pass through under me.
Ergasiis ani ittuma fufee gara Karra Burqaa fi gara Haroo mootichaa nan dhaqe; garuu karaan horii ani yaabbadhe dabarsu tokko illee hin turre;
15 And I was going up in the wadi night and I was examining the wall and I turned back and I went in [the] gate of the valley and I returned.
kanaafuu ani halkaniin karaa sululaatiin ol baʼee dallaa sana nan ilaale. Dhuma irrattis dugda duubatti deebiʼee Karra Sululaatiin ol nan seene.
16 And the officials not they knew where? had I gone and what? [was] I doing and to the Jews and to the priests and to the nobles and to the officials and to [the] rest [who was] doing the work until thus not I had told.
Sababii ani hamma gaafasitti Yihuudootatti yookaan lubootatti yookaan namoota bebeekamootti yookaan qondaaltotatti yookaan namoota hojii sana hojjechuuf jiran biraa kamitti iyyuu homaa hin himiniif qondaaltonni sun gara ani dhaqe yookaan waan ani hojjechaa ture hin beekne.
17 And I said to them you [are] seeing the trouble which we [are] in it that Jerusalem [is] desolate and gates its they have been burned with fire come so we may rebuild [the] wall of Jerusalem and not we will be again a reproach.
Anis akkana isaaniin nan jedhe; “Isin rakkoo nu keessa jirru ni argitu; Yerusaalem diigamteerti; karrawwan ishees ibiddaan gubamaniiru. Kottaa nu akka siʼachi nama kolfaa hin taaneef dallaa Yerusaalem deebifnee ni ijaarraa.”
18 And I told to them [about] [the] hand of God my that it [was] good on me and also [the] words of the king which he had spoken to me and they said let us arise and we will rebuild and they strengthened hands their for good.
Ani waaʼee harka Waaqa koo kan narra jiru tolaa sanaa fi waan mootichi naan jedhe illee isaanitti nan hime. Isaanis, “Kottaa kaanee deebisnee haa ijaarru” jedhanii deebisan. Kanaafuu isaan hojii gaarii kana jalqaban.
19 And he heard Sanballat the Horonite and Tobiah - the servant the Ammonite and Geshem the Arab and they mocked us and they despised us and they said what? [is] the thing this which you [are] doing ¿ on the king [are] you rebelling.
Garuu Sanbalaaxi Hooroonichi, Xoobbiyaan qondaaltichi Amoonii fi Gesheem namni Arabaa sun waan kana dhageenyaan nutti qoosanii nutti kolfan. Isaanis, “Wanni isin hojjettan kun maali? Isin mootichatti fincilaa jirtu moo?” jedhanii gaafatan.
20 And I brought back them word and I said to them [the] God of the heavens he he will grant success to us and we servants his we will arise and we will rebuild and [belongs] to you not a share and a right and a memorial in Jerusalem.
Ani immoo akkana jedheen deebii kenneef; “Waaqni samii fiixaan nuuf baasa. Nu garboonni isaa immoo kaanee ni ijaarra; isin garuu Yerusaalem keessaa qooda yookaan mirga yookaan yaadannoo tokko illee hin qabdan.”
