Nehemiah 9
1 Now on the twenty-fourth day of the same month the people of Israel were assembled and they were fasting, and they were wearing sackcloth, and they put dust on their heads.
Amo oubiga eso 24 amo Isala: ili dunu huluane da ilia wadela: i houba: le da: i dioi olelema: ne, ha: i mae nawane gilisi. Ilia da ga fi dunu amoga afafai dagoi. Ilia da wadela: i eboboi abula idiniginisi amola ilia da: i dioi olelema: ne, osobo gulu ilia dialuma da: iya legesu. Amalalu, ilia da wa: legadole, ilia wadela: i hou amola ilia aowalali ilia wadela: i hou hamoi fofada: i.
2 The descendants of Israel separated themselves from all the foreigners. They stood and confessed their own sins and the evil actions of their ancestors.
3 They stood up in their places, and for one-fourth of the day they read from the book of the law of Yahweh their God. For another fourth of the day they were confessing and bowing down before Yahweh their God.
Amo eso ilia da biyaduyale momogili, momogi afae amoga ilia da ilia Hina Gode Ea Sema idibi nabalu. Amalalu, momogi afae eno ganodini ilia da ilia wadela: i hou fofada: nanu. Amola ilia da ilia Hina Godema nodone sia: ne gadosu.
4 The Levites, Jeshua, Bani, Kadmiel, Shebaniah, Bunni, Sherebiah, Bani, and Kenani, stood on the stairs and they called out with a loud voice to Yahweh their God.
Lifai dunu amoga leloma: ne, fafai gagui dialebe ba: i. Amoga Yesua, Ba: inai, Ga: demiele, Siebanaia, Banai, Sielibaia, Houda: ia, Siebanaia, amola Bedahaia, amoga lelebe ba: i. Ilia dunu huluane nabima: ne, Hina Godema sia: ne gadosu.
5 Then the Levites, Jeshua, and Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabneiah, Sherebiah, Hodiah, Shebaniah, and Pethahiah said, “Stand up and give praise to Yahweh your God forever and ever.” “May they bless your glorious name, and may it be exalted above every blessing and praise.
Amalalu, Lifai dunu da dunu huluane Godema nodoma: ne sia: i. Amo Lifai dunu ilia dio da Yesua, Ga: demiele, Ba: inai, Hasiabena: ia, Sielibaia, Houda: ia, Siebanaia amola Bedahaia. Ilia da amane sia: i, “Wa: legadole, dilia Hina Godema mae fisili, eso huluane Ema nodonanoma. Dunu huluanedafa da Ea Dio gaguia gadole, nodonanumu da defea. Be E da Hadigidafaba: le, osobo bagade dunu ilia da Ema nodosu hamomu da defele hame ba: sa.”
6 You are Yahweh. You alone. You have made heaven, the highest heavens, with all their host, and the earth and everything on it, and the seas and all that is in them. You give life to them all, and the host of heaven worship you.
Amalalu, Isala: ili dunu da Godema amane sia: ne gadoi, “Hina Gode! Di fawane da Godedafa. Di fawane da mu amola gasumuni amo ganodini diala amo hahamoi. Di da osobo bagade amola hano wayabo bagade hahamoi. Di da liligi huluane amoma esalusu i dagoi. Hebene soge ganodini, gasa bagade fi da Dima beguduli, nodone sia: ne gadosa.
7 You are Yahweh, the God who chose Abram, and brought him out of Ur of the Chaldees, and gave him the name Abraham.
Di, Hina Gode, da A: ibala: me ilegei. E da ea moilai Ba: bilone soge amo ganodini esalu. Be Di da e gadili oule asili, ea dio afadenene, A:ibalaha: me dio asuli.
8 You found his heart was faithful before you, and you made with him the covenant to give to his descendants the land of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Jebusites, and the Girgashites. You have kept your promise because you are righteous.
Dia ba: loba A: ibalaha: me da Dima dafawaneyale dawa: su dunu ba: i. Di da soge ema imunu sia: i. Amo da Ga: ina: ne dunu, Hidaide dunu, A:moulaide dunu, Belesaide dunu, Yebiusaide dunu amola Gegasiaide dunu, amo dunu ilia soge gagui huluane, A:ibalaha: me egaga fi amo ganodini esaloma: ne, ema imunu sia: i. Amola dia imunu sia: i, hamoi dagoi ba: i. Bai Di da mae fisili didili hamosa.
9 You saw the affliction of our forefathers in Egypt and you heard their cry by the Sea of Reeds.
Ninia aowalali ilia se nabasu Idibidi soge ganodini, amo Di da ba: i dagoi. Amola ilia Maga: me Hano degemusa: fidima: ne wele sia: i, amo Di da nabi dagoi.
10 You gave signs and wonders against Pharaoh, and all his servants, and on all the people of his land, for you knew that the Egyptians acted with arrogance against them. But you made a name for yourself which stands to this day.
Di da Idibidi hina bagade, ea fidisu dunu amola ea fi dunu, ilia Dia Isala: ili fi banenesiba: le, amo hou hedofamusa: , gasa bagade musa: hame ba: su dawa: digima: ne olelesu hou hamoi dagoi. Di da Dia fi dunu ilia dio gaguia gadoi, amola Dia Dio da wali eso, gadodafa ba: sa.
11 Then you divided the sea before them, so that they went through the middle of the sea on the dry land; and threw those who pursued them into the depths, as a stone into deep waters.
Di da Dia fi degemusa: , hano wayabo bagade mogili, Dia dunu da hano hafoga: i logoga hahawane asi. Ili medole legemusa: fa: no bobogei dunu da hanoga na dagoi ba: i. Hano gafului amoga igi gela dasu defele, ilia da hanoga gela sa: i dagoi.
12 You led them by a pillar of cloud during by day, and by a pillar of fire during the night to light the way for them to go.
Di da mu mobi agoai mogomogoi amoga esoga ili bisili oule asi. Amola gasi ganodini, Di da lalu sawa: amoga ilia logo hadigisu.
13 On Mount Sinai you came down and you spoke with them from heaven and gave to them righteous decrees and true laws, good statutes and commandments.
Sainai Goumia, Di da Hebene fisili, ilima sia: musa: gudu sa: i. Di da sema noga: iwane amola olelesu noga: i, ilima i.
14 You made your holy Sabbath known to them, and you gave them commandments and statutes and a law through Moses your servant.
Di da, ilia da Dia Sa: bade eso huluane noga: le ouligima: ne, sia: i. Amola, ilima alofele ima: ne, Dia da Dia hawa: hamosu dunu Mousese ema Dia Sema i.
15 You gave them bread from heaven for their hunger, and water from a rock for their thirst, and you said to them to go in to possess the land you swore on oath to give them.
Ilia ha: iba: le, Dia da Hebene soge amoga ha: i manu i, amola ilia hano hanaiba: le, hano dili moma: ne, igi amoga hano dili i. Di da soge amo ilima imunu sia: i, ilia da amo lale, noga: le ouligima: ne sia: i.
16 But they and our ancestors acted disrespectfully, and they were stubborn, and did not listen to your commandments.
Be ninia aowalali da gasa fiwane heda: le, hame nabasu hou hamosu. Ilia da Dia sia: i nabimu higasu.
17 They refused to listen, and they did not think about the wonders that you had done among them, but became stubborn, and in their rebellion they appointed a leader to return to their slavery. But you are a God who is full of forgiveness, gracious and compassionate, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love. You did not abandon them.
Ilia da hame nabasu. Ilia da Dia gasa bagade fidisu hou gogolei dagoi. Ilia gasa fi hamobeba: le, ilisu da hina dunu amo Idibidi sogega se dabe hawa: hamomusa: gini, ili bisili oule masa: ne ilegei dagoi. Be Di da gogolema: ne olofosu bagade dawa: Di da haha bagade, asigidafa amola hedolo hame ougisa. Amaiba: le, Di da ninia aowalali hame yolesi.
18 Even when they had cast a calf out of molten metal and said, 'This is your God who brought you up out of Egypt,' and had committed great blasphemies,
Ilia da ogogosu ‘gode’ agoaila liligi gouliga hamoi. Ilia giadofale amo ogogosu ‘gode’ da ili bisili, Idibidi sogega fisili gadili oule asi dagoi, sia: i. Hina Gode! Ilia da Dia dio wadela: lesi dagoi.
19 you, in your compassion, did not abandon them in the wilderness. The pillar of cloud to lead them on the way did not leave them during day, neither did the pillar of fire by night to light the way for them to go.
Be Di da amo dunu wadela: i hafoga: i soge ganodini hame yolesi. Bai Dia hou da asigidafa. Di da mu mobi agoai mogomogoi amola lalu sawa: amola amo liligi hame samogei. Eso amola gasi ganodini, Di da logo ilima noga: le olelesu.
20 Your good Spirit you gave them to instruct them, and your manna you did not withhold from their mouths, and water you gave them for their thirst.
Dia hahawane hou amoga, di da ilima agoane hamoma: ne adoi. Di da ilima “ma: na” ha: i manu amola hano moma: ne iasu.
21 For forty years you provided for them in the wilderness, and they lacked nothing. Their clothes did not wear out and their feet did not swell.
Ode 40 amoga ilia da wadela: i hafoga: i soge amo ganodini esaloba, Di da ilia hanai liligi defele fidi. Ilia abula da hamedafa abubula ahoasu, amola ilia emo da hame se nabasu amola hame fofasu.
22 You gave them kingdoms and peoples, assigning to them every corner of the land. Then they took possession of the land of Sihon king of Heshbon and the land of Og king of Bashan.
Dia da logo doasiba: le, ilia da dunu fi bagade amo hasalasi. Ilia Hesiabone soge fi (ilia hina bagade da Saihone galu) amola Ba: isia: ne soge fi (ilia hina bagade da Oge galu) amo hasasali.
23 You made their children as numerous as the stars of heaven, and you brought them into the land that you told their ancestors to go in and possess.
Di da ilima mano amo ilia idi da gasumuni mu amo ganodini aligi ilia idi defele ba: i, amo ilima i. Dia fidibiba: le, ilia da soge amo Di da ilia aowalali ilima imunu ilegele sia: i, amo ilia da hasalali, ganodini gesowale fi.
24 So the people went in and possessed the land and you subdued before them the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites. You gave them into their hands, with their kings and the peoples of the land, that Israel might do with them as they pleased.
Ilia da Ga: ina: ne soge fi ili amo hasasali. Di da ilima gasa iabeba: le, ilia da ilia hanaiga, Ga: ina: ne dunu amola ilia hina bagade amoga hamosu.
25 They captured the fortified cities and a productive land, and they captured houses full of all good things, cisterns already cut out, vineyards and olive orchards, and fruit trees in abundance. So they ate and were satisfied and grew fat and enjoyed themselves in your great goodness.
Hina Gode! Dia fi dunu da gasa bagade gagili sali moilai amo lai dagoi. Ilia da osobo noga: idafa, diasu amo ganodini liligi noga: idafa ba: i, hano uli dogoi, olife ifa, ha: i manu ifa amola waini sagai amo bagohame lai. Ilia da ilia hanaiga ha: i nanu, ilia da: i da bagade alele, Dia iasu liligi noga: idafa ilia da hahawane lai.
26 Then they became disobedient and they rebelled against you. They threw your law behind their backs. They murdered your prophets who had warned them to turn back to you, and they committed great blasphemies.
Be Dia fi da sinidigili, Dia sia: hame nabasu. Ilia da Dia sema amo baligifa: su. Ilia da ilima sisasu olelesu dunu (balofede dunu) amo da ilia Dima sinidigili bu fa: no bobogema: ne sia: i, amo ilia da medole legesu. Eso bagohame amoga ilia da Dia Dio wadela: lesi.
27 So you gave them into the hand of their enemies, who made them suffer. In the time of their suffering, they cried out to you, and you heard them from heaven, and because of your great mercies you sent them rescuers who rescued them out of the hand of their enemies.
Amaiba: le, ilima ha lai da ilima hasalasima: ne, Di da logo doasi dagoi. Amogawi, ilia da se bagade nababeba: le, Dima fidima: ne wele sia: su. Dia da asigiba: le, ouligisu dunu ilima asunasi. Amo ouligisu dunu ilia da Dia fi ilima ha lai dunu ilima gaga: i dagoi.
28 But after they had rest, they did evil again before you, and you abandoned them to the hand of their enemies, so their enemies ruled over them. Yet when they returned and cried out to you, you heard from heaven, and many times because of your compassion you rescued them.
Be olofosu da bu doaga: loba, ilia da bu eno wadela: le hamoi. Amalalu, Di da ilima ha lai dunu amo ilima hasalasima: ne, Di da logo bu doasi. Be ilia da bu Gode Dima sinidigiloba, Di da Hebene ganodini ilia wele sia: su nabalu, Di da bagadewane asigiba: le, eso bagohame amoga Dia fi dunu bu gaga: i.
29 You warned them so they might turn back to your law. Yet they acted arrogantly and did not listen to your commands. They sinned against your decrees which give life to anyone who obeys them. They gave the stubborn shoulder-blade and stiffened their neck and refused to listen.
Ilia da Dia olelesu amoma noga: le fa: no bobogema: ne, Di da ilima sisasu olelei. Dia sema amo da esalusu logo olelesa. Be ilia da gasa fili, Dia Sema hamedafa nabasu.
30 For many years you put up with them and warned them by your Spirit through your prophets. Yet they did not listen. So you gave them into the hand of the neighboring peoples.
Ode bagohame, Di da ili sinidigima: ne gebewane sia: su, amola Dia balofede dunu ilima sia: ma: ne asunasisu. Be ilia da ge ga: i agoai galusu. Amaiba: le, Di da eno fi ilima hasalimusa: yolesi.
31 But in your great mercies you did not make a complete end of them, or forsake them, for you are a gracious and merciful God.
Be Dia asigidafa hou da bagadedafa. Amaiba: le, Di da amo dunu hame yolesi, amola hame wadela: lesi. Di da hahawane amola Asigidafa hou ea bai esala.
32 Now therefore, our God—you great, mighty, and awesome God who keep your covenant and steadfast love—do not let all this hardship seem little to you that has come on us, on our kings, on our princes, and on our priests, and on our prophets, and on our ancestors, and on all your people from the days of the kings of Assyria until today.
“Gode! Ninia Gode! Di da gasa bagadedafa! Dia gasa bagade hou ba: beba: le, dunu huluane da Diba: le beda: be. Di da mae fisili, Dia Gousa: su hou defele hamonana. Asilia hina bagade da ninima hasalasili, amo ganini waha, amo eso huluane amoga ninia da se bagade nabasu. Ninia ouligisu hina dunu, ouligisu dunu, gobele salasu dunu, balofede dunu amola dunu huluane da se nabawane hahanisu. Amo Di mae gogolema.
33 You are just in everything that has come on us, for you have dealt faithfully, but we have acted wickedly.
Di da ninima se dabe iasu da moloidafa. Ninia da wadela: i hou bagade hamosu. Be Dia moloidafa hou, Di da hame yolesi.
34 Our kings, our princes, our priests, and our ancestors have not kept your law, nor paid attention to your commandments or your covenant decrees by which you warned them.
Ninia aowalali, hina bagade, fi ouligisu dunu amola gobele salasu dunu, amo da Dia sema amoma hame fa: no bobogesu. Ilia da Dia hamoma: ne sia: i amola Dia sisasu hamedafa nabasu.
35 Even in their own kingdom, while they enjoyed your great goodness to them, in the large and productive land you set before them, they did not serve you or turn away from their evil ways.
Dia da hahawane fidibiba: le, Di da Dia fi dunuma soge bagade noga: idafa ilima i. Amola ilia da amo ganodini hahawane esalu. Amola, hina bagade da ili ouligisu. Be ilia da wadela: i hou fisili, Dima hawa: hamomu, amo hame hamosu.
36 Now we are slaves in the land you gave our ancestors to enjoy its fruit and its good gifts, and behold, we are slaves in it!
Amaiba: le, ninia da wali udigili se dabe hawa: hamosu dunu agoai, soge Di da musa: ninima i, amola amoga ninia ha: i manu faisa, amo soge ganodini esala.
37 The rich yield from our land goes to the kings you have set over us because of our sins. They rule over our bodies and over our livestock as they please. We are in great distress.
Ninia da wadela: le hamoiba: le, eno fi hina bagade da nini ouligima: ne, Di da logo doasi. Wali ninia soge ganodini ha: i manu heda: le legeiya, huluane da ilima fawane iaha. Amola amo hina bagade da ilia hanaiga ninima amola ninia ohe ilima hamosa. Ninia da se bagade naba.”
38 Because of all this, we make a firm covenant in writing. On the sealed document are the names of our princes, Levites, and priests.”
“Amo hou huluane da doaga: beba: le, ninia, Isala: ili dunu huluane, da amo sia: dedei hahamosa. Ninia ouligisu dunu, Lifai dunu amola gobele salasu dunu, amo da ilia dio dedene, amo sia: gobele salasu legei amoga ilegesa.”
