< Nehemiah 9 >
1 And on day twenty and four of the month this they gathered [the] people of Israel with fasting and in sackcloth and earth [was] on them.
In die autem vigesimoquarto mensis huius convenerunt filii Israel in ieiunio et in saccis, et humus super eos.
2 And they separated themselves [the] offspring of Israel from all sons of foreignness and they stood and they confessed on sins their and [the] iniquities of ancestors their.
Et separatum est semen filiorum Israel ab omni filio alienigena: et steterunt, et confitebantur peccata sua, et iniquitates patrum suorum.
3 And they stood at place their and they read aloud in [the] scroll of [the] law of Yahweh God their [the] fourth of the day and a fourth [they were] confessing and [they were] bowing down to Yahweh God their.
Et consurrexerunt ad standum: et legerunt in volumine Legis Domini Dei sui, quater in die, et quater confitebantur, et adorabant Dominum Deum suum.
4 And he stood on [the] platform of the Levites Jeshua and Bani Kadmiel Shebaniah Bunni Sherebiah Bani Kenani and they cried out with a voice great to Yahweh God their.
Surrexerunt autem super gradum Levitarum Iosue, et Bani, et Cedmihel, Sabania, Bonni, Sarebias, Bani, et Chanani: et clamaverunt voce magna ad Dominum Deum suum.
5 And they said the Levites Jeshua and Kadmiel Bani Hashabneiah Sherebiah Hodiah Shebaniah Pethahiah arise bless Yahweh God your from antiquity until perpetuity and may people bless [the] name of glory your and [may it] be exalted above all blessing and praise.
Et dixerunt Levitae Iosue, et Cedmihel, Bonni, Hasebnia, Serebia, Odaia, Sebnia, Phathathia: Surgite, benedicite Domino Deo vestro ab aeterno usque in aeternum: et benedicant nomini gloriae tuae excelso in omni benedictione et laude.
6 You he [are] Yahweh to alone you (you *Q(K)*) you made the heavens [the] heavens of the heavens and all host their the earth and all that [is] on it the seas and all that [is] in them and you [are] preserving alive all of them and [the] host of the heavens to you [are] bowing down.
Tu ipse, Domine, solus, tu fecisti caelum, et caelum caelorum, et omnem exercitum eorum: terram, et universa quae in ea sunt: maria, et omnia quae in eis sunt: et tu vivificas omnia haec, et exercitus caeli te adorat.
7 You he [are] Yahweh God who you chose Abram and you brought out him from Ur of [the] Chaldeans and you made name his Abraham.
Tu ipse, Domine Deus, qui elegisti Abram, et eduxisti eum de igne Chaldaeorum, et posuisti nomen eius Abraham.
8 And you found heart his faithful before you and you made with him the covenant to give [the] land of the Canaanite[s] the Hittite[s] the Amorite[s] and the Perizzite[s] and the Jebusite[s] and the Girgashite[s] to give to offspring his and you fulfilled words your for [are] righteous you.
Et invenisti cor eius fidele coram te: et percussisti cum eo foedus ut dares ei Terram Chananaei, Hethaei, et Hevaei, et Amorrhaei, et Pherezaei, et Iebusaei, et Gergesaei, ut dares semini eius: et implesti verba tua, quoniam iustus es.
9 And you saw [the] affliction of ancestors our in Egypt and outcry their you heard at [the] sea of reed[s].
Et vidisti afflictionem patrum nostrorum in Aegypto: clamoremque eorum audisti super Mare rubrum.
10 And you gave signs and wonders on Pharaoh and on all servants his and on all [the] people of land his for you knew that they had acted presumptuously on them and you made for yourself a name as the day this.
Et dedisti signa atque portenta in Pharaone, et in universis servis eius, et in omni populo terrae illius: cognovisti enim quia superbe egerant contra eos: et fecisti tibi nomen, sicut et in hac die.
11 And the sea you split open before them and they passed in [the] middle of the sea on the dry ground and pursuers their you threw in [the] depths like a stone in waters mighty.
Et mare divisisti ante eos, et transierunt per medium maris in sicco: persecutores autem eorum proiecisti in profundum, quasi lapidem in aquas validas.
12 And in a pillar of cloud you led them by day and in a pillar of fire night to light up for them the way which they walked in it.
Et in columna nubis ductor eorum fuisti per diem, et in columna ignis per noctem, ut appareret eis via, per quam ingrediebantur.
13 And on [the] mountain of Sinai you came down and you spoke with them from heaven and you gave to them judgments upright and laws of faithfulness statutes and commandments good.
Ad montem quoque Sinai descendisti, et locutus es cum eis de caelo, et dedisti eis iudicia recta, et legem veritatis, ceremonias, et praecepta bona:
14 And [the] sabbath of holiness your you made known to them and commandments and statutes and [the] law you commanded to them by [the] hand of Moses servant your.
et sabbatum sanctificatum tuum ostendisti eis, et mandata, et ceremonias, et legem praecepisti eis in manu Moysi servi tui.
15 And bread from heaven you gave to them for hunger their and water from a rock you brought forth for them for thirst their and you said to them to go to take possession of the land which you had lifted hand your to give to them.
Panem quoque de caelo dedisti eis in fame eorum, et aquam de petra eduxisti eis sitientibus, et dixisti eis ut ingrederentur et possiderent terram, super quam levasti manum tuam ut traderes eis.
16 And they and ancestors our they acted presumptuously and they stiffened neck their and not they listened to commandments your.
Ipsi vero et patres nostri superbe egerunt, et induraverunt cervices suas, et non audierunt mandata tua.
17 And they refused to listen and not they remembered wonders your which you had done with them and they stiffened neck their and they appointed a leader to return to servitude their in rebellion their and you [are] a God forgiveness gracious and compassionate long of anger and great (of covenant loyalty *Q(K)*) and not you abandoned them.
Et noluerunt audire, et non sunt recordati mirabilium tuorum quae feceras eis. Et induraverunt cervices suas, et dederunt caput ut converterentur ad servitutem suam, quasi per contentionem. Tu autem Deus propitius, clemens, et misericors, longanimis, et multae miserationis, non dereliquisti eos,
18 Even for they had made for themselves a calf of molten metal and they had said this [is] god your who he brought up you from Egypt and they had done blasphemies great.
et quidem cum fecissent sibi vitulum conflatilem, et dixissent: Iste est deus tuus, qui eduxit te de Aegypto: feceruntque blasphemias magnas.
19 And you in compassion your great not you abandoned them in the wilderness [the] pillar of cloud not it departed from over them in daytime their to lead them in the way and [the] pillar of fire at night to light up for them and the way which they walked in it.
Tu autem in misericordiis tuis multis non dimisisti eos in deserto: columna nubis non recessit ab eis per diem ut duceret eos in viam, et columna ignis per noctem ut ostenderet eis iter per quod ingrederentur.
20 And spirit your good you gave to instruct them and manna your not you withheld from mouth their and water you gave to them for thirst their.
Et spiritum tuum bonum dedisti qui doceret eos, et manna tuum non prohibuisti ab ore eorum, et aquam dedisti eis in siti.
21 And forty year[s] you sustained them in the wilderness not they were lacking clothes their not they wore out and feet their not they became swollen.
Quadraginta annis pavisti eos in deserto, nihilque eis defuit: vestimenta eorum non inveteraverunt, et pedes eorum non sunt attriti.
22 And you gave to them kingdoms and peoples and you apportioned them to a corner and they took possession of [the] land of Sihon and [the] land of [the] king of Heshbon and [the] land of Og [the] king of Bashan.
Et dedisti eis regna, et populos, et partitus es eis sortes: et possederunt terram Sehon, et terram regis Hesebon, et terram Og regis Basan.
23 And children their you increased like [the] stars of the heavens and you brought them into the land which you had said to ancestors their to go to take possession of.
Et multiplicasti filios eorum sicut stellas caeli, et adduxisti eos ad terram, de qua dixeras patribus eorum ut ingrederentur et possiderent.
24 And they went the children and they took possession of the land and you subdued before them [the] inhabitants of the land the Canaanites and you gave them in hand their and kings their and [the] peoples of the land to do with them according to will their.
Et venerunt filii, et possederunt terram, et humiliasti coram eis habitatores terrae Chananaeos, et dedisti eos in manu eorum et reges eorum et populos terrae ut facerent eis sicut placebant illis.
25 And they captured cities fortified and ground fertile and they took possession of houses full every good thing wells dug out vineyards and olive trees and tree[s] of food to abundance and they ate and they were satisfied and they grew fat and they luxuriated in goodness your great.
Ceperunt itaque urbes munitas et humum pinguem, et possederunt domos plenas cunctis bonis: cisternas ab aliis fabricatas, vineas, et oliveta, et ligna pomifera multa: et comederunt, et saturati sunt, et impinguati sunt, et abundaverunt deliciis in bonitate tua magna.
26 And they were disobedient and they rebelled against you and they threw law your behind back their and prophets your they killed who they had warned them to bring back them to you and they did blasphemies great.
Provocaverunt autem te ad iracundiam, et recesserunt a te, et proiecerunt legem tuam post terga sua: et prophetas tuos occiderunt, qui contestabantur eos ut reverterentur ad te: feceruntque blasphemias grandes.
27 And you gave them in [the] hand of opponents their and they caused distress to them and in [the] time of distress their they cried out to you and you from heaven you heard and according to compassion your great you gave to them deliverers and they delivered them from [the] hand of opponents their.
Et dedisti eos in manu hostium suorum, et afflixerunt eos. Et in tempore tribulationis suae clamaverunt ad te, et tu de caelo audisti, et secundum miserationes tuas multas dedisti eis salvatores, qui salvarent eos de manu hostium suorum.
28 And just as was rest to them they returned to do evil before you and you abandoned them in [the] hand of enemies their and they ruled over them and they returned and they cried out to you and you from heaven you heard and you rescued them according to compassion your many times.
Cumque requievissent, reversi sunt ut facerent malum in conspectu tuo: et dereliquisti eos in manu inimicorum suorum, et possederunt eos. Conversique sunt, et clamaverunt ad te: tu autem de caelo exaudisti, et liberasti eos in misericordiis tuis, multis temporibus.
29 And you warned them to bring back them to law your and they they acted presumptuously and not they listened to commandments your and in judgments your they sinned in them which he will do anyone and he will live by them and they gave a shoulder stubborn and neck their they stiffened and not they listened.
Et contestatus es eos ut reverterentur ad Legem tuam. Ipsi vero superbe egerunt, et non audierunt mandata tua, et in iudiciis tuis peccaverunt, quae faciet homo, vivet in eis: et dederunt humerum recedentem, et cervicem suam induraverunt, nec audierunt.
30 And you prolonged towards them years many and you warned them by spirit your by [the] hand of prophets your and not they gave ear and you gave them in [the] hand of [the] peoples of the lands.
Et protraxisti super eos annos multos, et contestatus es eos in spiritu tuo per manum prophetarum tuorum: et non audierunt, et tradidisti eos in manu populorum terrarum.
31 And in compassion your great not you made them complete destruction and not you abandoned them for [are] a God gracious and compassionate you.
In misericordiis autem tuis plurimis non fecisti eos in consumptionem, nec dereliquisti eos: quoniam Deus miserationum, et clemens es tu.
32 And therefore O God our God great mighty and awesome [the] keeper of the covenant and covenant loyalty may not it be small before you all the hardship which it has come upon us to kings our to leaders our and to priests our and to prophets our and to ancestors our and to all people your since [the] days of [the] kings of Assyria until the day this.
Nunc itaque Deus noster magne, fortis, et terribilis, custodiens pactum et misericordiam, ne avertas a facie tua omnem laborem, qui invenit nos, reges nostros, et principes nostros, et sacerdotes nostros, et prophetas nostros, et patres nostros, et omnem populum tuum a diebus regis Assur usque in diem hanc.
33 And you [are] righteous on every [thing which] has come on us for faithfulness you have acted and we we have acted wickedly.
Et tu iustus es in omnibus, quae venerunt super nos: quia veritatem fecisti, nos autem impie egimus.
34 And kings our leaders our priests our and ancestors our not they did law your and not they paid attention to commandments your and to testimonies your which you admonished them.
Reges nostri, principes nostri, sacerdotes nostri, et patres nostri non fecerunt legem tuam, et non attenderunt mandata tua, et testimonia tua quae testificatus es in eis.
35 And they in own kingdom their and in goodness your great which you had given to them and in [the] land broad and fertile which you had set before them not they served you and not they turned back from deeds their evil.
Et ipsi in regnis suis, et in bonitate tua multa, quam dederas eis, et in terra latissima et pingui, quam tradideras in conspectu eorum, non servierunt tibi, nec reversi sunt a studiis suis pessimis.
36 Here! we this day [are] slaves and the land which you gave to ancestors our to eat fruit its and good thing[s] its here! we [are] slaves on it.
Ecce nosipsi hodie servi sumus: et terra, quam dedisti patribus nostris ut comederent panem eius, et quae bona sunt eius, et nosipsi servi sumus in ea.
37 And produce its [is] increasing for the kings whom you have appointed over us in sins our and over bodies our [they are] ruling and over cattle our according to will their and [are] in distress great we.
Et fruges eius multiplicantur regibus, quos posuisti super nos propter peccata nostra, et corporibus nostris dominantur, et iumentis nostris secundum voluntatem suam, et in tribulatione magna sumus.
38 And in all this we [are] making a trustworthy arrangement and writing and [are] on the sealed [document] leaders our Levites our priests our.
Super omnibus ergo his nosipsi percutimus foedus, et scribimus, et signant principes nostri, Levitae nostri, et Sacerdotes nostri.
