Nehemiah 7
1 When the wall was finished and I had set up the doors in place, and the gatekeepers and singers and Levites had been appointed,
Mgbe e wuzichara mgbidi ahụ, na mgbe m guzobesịrị ibo nʼọnụ ụzọ ya niile nʼọnọdụ ha, họpụtakwa ndị ọbụ abụ na ndị nche, na ndị Livayị.
2 I gave my brother Hanani charge over Jerusalem, along with Hananiah who had oversight of the fortress, for he was a faithful man and feared God more than many.
Enyefere m ọrụ ilekọta Jerusalem nʼaka nwanne m nwoke bụ Hanani, ya na Hananaya onye bụ onyeisi ụlọ ukwu ahụ e wusiri ike, nʼihi na ọ bụ nwoke na-ekwu eziokwu, bụrụkwa onye na-atụ egwu Chineke karịa ọtụtụ ndị ọzọ.
3 I said to them, “Do not open the gates of Jerusalem until the sun is hot. While the gatekeepers are on guard, you may shut the doors and bar them. Appoint guards from those who live in Jerusalem, some at the place of their guard station, and some in front of their own homes.”
Agwara m ha, “Na-emeghenụ ọnụ ụzọ ama naanị mgbe chi bọziri nke ọma. Kpọchiekwa ha mgbe ndị nche ka nọ na nche. Họpụtakwanụ ndị bi na Jerusalem ka ha bụrụ ndị nche. Ụfọdụ ga-eche nʼebe a họpụtara ha, ụfọdụ ga-eche nʼakụkụ ụlọ nke aka ha.”
4 Now the city was wide and large, but there were few people within it, and no houses had yet been rebuilt.
Nʼoge a obodo ahụ buru ibu dịkwa mbara, ma ndị bi nʼime ya dị ole na ole nʼọnụọgụgụ, ụlọ ndị dị nʼime ya bụkwa ihe ewugharịbeghị.
5 My God put into my heart to gather together the nobles, the officials, and the people to enroll them by their families. I found the book of the genealogy of those who returned at the first and found the following written in it.
Ya mere Chineke m tinyere ya nʼobi m ka m chịkọta ndị niile a na-asọpụrụ, ndị ọchịchị, na ndị niile bi nʼobodo, maka idebanye aha nʼakwụkwọ ezinaụlọ nʼezinaụlọ. Achọtara m ebe e depụtara usoro ndị mmadụ niile bụ ụzọ lọta Juda nʼoge gara aga. Nke a bụ ihe m chọpụtara edere nʼime ya:
6 “These are the people of the province who went up out of the captivity of those exiles whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon took into exile. They returned to Jerusalem and to Judah, each to his city.
Ndị a bụ ndị obodo niile a na-achị achị, bụ ndị sitere na ndọta nʼagha nke Nebukadneza, eze Babilọn, onye dọtara ha nʼagha buru ha laa nʼala ọzọ. Ha lọghachitere na Jerusalem nakwa Juda, onye ọbụla nʼobodo nke aka ya.

Ndị na-eje ozi nʼụlọnsọ na ụmụ ndị na-ejere eze Solomọn ozi, dị narị atọ na iri itoolu na abụọ.
61 These were the people who went up from Tel Melah, Tel Harsha, Kerub, Addon, and Immer. But they could not prove that they or their ancestors' families were descendants from Israel:
Ndị a bụ ndị ọzọ sitere nʼobodo Tel Mela, Tel Hasha, Kerub, Adọn na Imea, nke dị nʼala Peshịa lọta. Ma ha enweghị ike igosi ezinaụlọ ebe agbụrụ ha si nʼIzrel.

Sitekwa nʼetiti ndị nchụaja: Ndị agbụrụ: Hobaya, Hakoz na Bazilai (nwoke lụrụ ada Bazilai onye Gilead a kpọọ ya aha nʼaha ha).
64 These sought their records among those enrolled by their genealogy, but they could not be found, so they were excluded from the priesthood as unclean.
Ndị a chọrọ ebe e depụtara usoro ọmụmụ ha nʼakwụkwọ, ma ha achọtaghị ha nʼihi ya e wepụrụ ha nʼọrụ nchụaja dịka ndị na-adịghị ọcha.
65 Then the governor said to them that they should not be allowed to eat the priests' share of food from the sacrifices until there rose up a priest with Urim and Thummim.
Nʼihi nke a, onyeisi ọchịchị nyere iwu ka ha ghara iri ihe aja dịkarịsịrị nsọ, tutu ruo mgbe a ga-enwe onye nchụaja na-eji Urim na Tumim ajụta ase.

70 Some from among the heads of ancestors' families gave gifts for the work. The governor gave to the treasury one thousand darics of gold, 50 basins, and 530 priestly garments.
Ma ụfọdụ nʼime ndịisi ezinaụlọ nyere onyinye maka ọrụ ahụ. Onyeisi ọchịchị tinyere nʼụlọakụ otu puku darik ọlaedo, iri efere ọlaedo ise na uwe ndị nchụaja narị ise na iri atọ.
71 Some of the heads of ancestors' families gave into the treasury for the work twenty thousand darics of gold and 2,200 minas of silver.

73 So the priests, the Levites, the gatekeepers, the singers, some of the people, the temple servants, and all Israel lived in their cities. By the seventh month the people of Israel were settled in their cities.”
