< Nehemiah 6 >

1 And it was just when it was heard by Sanballat and Tobiah and by Geshem the Arab and by [the] rest of enemies our that I had rebuilt the wall and not it was left in it a breach also until the time that doors not I had set up in the gates.
Ani hamma yeroo sanaatti cuftuu balbalaa itti galchuu baadhu illee Sanbalaax, Xoobbiyaan, Gesheem namicha Arabaa sanaa fi diinonni keenya biraan akka ani dallaa sana deebisee ijaaree iddoon hin ijaaramin tokko iyyuu hin hafin dhageenyaan
2 And he sent Sanballat and Geshem to me saying come! so let us meet together at Kephirim in [the] plain of Ono and they [were] planning to do to me harm.
Sanbalaaxii fi Gesheem, “Kottu mee gandoota dirree Oonoo irra jiran keessaa isa tokko keessatti wal arginaa” jedhanii ergaa kana natti ergan. Isaan garuu na miidhuuf malachaa turan;
3 And I sent! to them messengers saying a work great I [am] doing and not I am able to go down why? will it cease the work when I will let drop it and I will go down to you.
kanaafuu ani akkana jedhee ergamoota isaanittin erge; “Ani waan hojii guddaa hojjechaa jiruuf gad buʼuu hin dandaʼu. Yeroo ani hojii dhiisee gara keessanitti gad buʼuutti hojiin maaliif dhaabata?”
4 And they sent to me according to the manner this four times and I sent back to them according to the manner this.
Isaan ergaadhuma tokko siʼa afur natti ergan; anis siʼa afranuu deebiidhuma tokkon kenneef.
5 And he sent to me Sanballat according to the manner this a time fifth servant his and a letter open [was] in hand his.
Sanbalaaxis ergaadhuma sana garbicha isaa tokkoon yeroo shanaffaa natti erge; garbichi sunis xalayaa hin cufamin tokko harkaa qaba ture.
6 [was] written In it among the nations it has been heard and Gashmu [is] saying you and the Jews [are] planning to rebel there-fore you [are] rebuilding the wall and you [are] about to become of them king according to the words these.
Xalayichis akkana jedha: “Akka atii fi Yihuudoonni finciluu barbaaddan uummata keessatti odeeffameera; Gesheemis kanuma mirkaneessa. Wanni isin dallaa ijaartaniifis kanuma; akka oduu kanaatti ati mootii isaanii taʼuu barbaadda;
7 And also prophets you have appointed to proclaim on you in Jerusalem saying a king [is] in Judah and now it will be heard by the king according to the words these and therefore come! so let us take counsel together.
ati akka isaan, ‘Yihuudaa keessa mootii tokkotu jira!’ jedhanii waaʼee kee Yerusaalem keessatti labsaniif raajota muudatteerta. Oduun kun gara mootichaatti ni deebiʼa; kanaafuu kottu wajjin ni mariʼannaa.”
8 And I sent! to him saying not it has occurred according to the words these which you [are] saying that from heart your you [are] inventing them.
Kana irratti ani, “Wanni akka waan ati dubbattu kanaa tokko illee hin hojjetamne; ati matuma kee keessaa fuutee dubbattaa” jedheen deebiseef.
9 For all of them [were] making afraid us saying they will drop hands their from the work and not it will be done and therefore strengthen hands my.
Isaan hundi, “Harki jara kanaa hojii hojjechuu ni dadhaba; hojiin kunis hin dhumu” jedhanii yaaduudhaan nu sodaachisuu yaalaa turan. Ani garuu, “Amma harka koo naa jajjabeessi” jedheen Waaqa kadhadhe.
10 And I I went [the] house of Shemaiah [the] son of Delaiah [the] son of Mehetabel and he [was] shut up and he said let us meet to [the] house of God to [the] middle of the temple and let us close [the] doors of the temple for [people are] coming to kill you and night [people are] coming to kill you.
Anis gaaf tokko mana Shemaaʼiyaa ilma Delaayaa, ilma Maheexabiʼeel kan manuma ofii isaa keessatti itti cufame sanaa nan dhaqe. Innis akkana jedhe; “Sababii namoonni si ajjeesuuf dhufaa jiraniif, sababii isaan si ajjeesuuf halkaniin dhufaa jiraniif kottu mana Waaqaatti, mana qulqullummaa keessatti wal arginee balbalawwan mana qulqullummaa haa cufannu.”
11 And I said! ¿ a man like me will he flee and who? [is] like me who he will go into the temple and he will live not I will go.
Ani immoo, “Namni akka kootii kun baqachuu qabaa? Yookaan namni na fakkaatu tokko lubbuu ofii isaa oolfachuudhaaf jedhee mana qulqullummaa seenuu qabaa? Ani hin deemu!” jedheen.
12 And I recognized! and there! not God he had sent him for the prophecy he had spoken on me and Tobiah and Sanballat he had hired him.
Ani akka Waaqni isa natti hin ergin beekkadheera; inni garuu sababii Xoobbiyaa fi Sanbalaaxi isa bitataniif waaʼee koo waan hamaa raaje.
13 So that [was] hired he so that I may be afraid and I may act thus and I will sin and it will become for them a name bad so that they may reproach me.
Inni na sodaachisee akka ani waan kana hojjechuudhaan cubbuu hojjedhuuf, akka isaanis akkasiin maqaa hamaa naa kennanii maqaa na balleessaniif bitame.
14 Remember! O God my to Tobiah and to Sanballat according to works his these and also Noadiah the prophetess and to [the] rest of the prophets who they were making afraid me.
Yaa Waaqa ko, sababii waan isaan hojjetan sanaaf jedhiitii Xoobbiyaa fi Sanbalaaxin yaadadhu; raajjuu Nooʼadiyaa jedhamtuu fi raajota na sodaachisuu yaalan kaanis yaadadhu.
15 And it was complete the wall on [day] twenty and five of Elul to fifty and two day[s].
Akkasiinis dallaan sun bultii shantamii lamatti, jiʼa Eeluuli jedhamu keessa bultii digdamii shanaffaatti ijaaramee dhume.
16 And it was just when they heard all enemies our and they were afraid all the nations which [were] around us and they fell exceedingly in own eyes their and they knew that from with God our it had been done the work this.
Yommuu diinonni keenya hundi oduu kana dhagaʼanitti, saboonni naannoo keenyaa hundi sodaatanii abdii kutatan; isaan akka hojiin kun gargaarsa Waaqa keenyaan hojjetame hubataniiruutii.
17 Also - in the days those [were] multiplying [the] nobles of Judah letters their [which were] going to Tobiah and [those] which [belonged] to Tobiah [were] coming to them.
Bara sana keessa namoonni Yihuudaa bebeekamoon xalayoota hedduu gara Xoobbiyaatti ergaa turan; Xoobbiyaanis deebii isaaniif ni erga ture.
18 For many [people] in Judah [were] lords of oath to him for [was] a son-in-law he of Shecaniah [the] son of Arah and Jehohanan son his he had taken [the] daughter of Meshullam [the] son of Berekiah.
Sababii inni soddaa Shekaaniyaa ilma Aaraa tureef namoonni Yihuudaa keessa jiraatan hedduun isaaf kakatan; akkasumas ilmi isaa Yehohaanaan intala Meshulaam ilma Berekiyaa fuudhee ture.
19 Also good deeds his they were telling before me and words my they were sending out to him letters he sent Tobiah to make afraid me.
Kana malees isaan hojii isaa gaarii natti odeessaa, waan ani jedhe illee isatti himaa turan. Xoobbiyaan immoo na sodaachisuuf jedhee xalayoota natti ergaa ture.
