Nehemiah 6
1 Now it came to pass, when Sanballat, and Tobiah, and Geshem the Arabian, and the rest of our enemies, heard that I had built the wall, and that there was no breach left in it; ( though at that time I had not set up the doors upon the gates; )
Ita, idi nadamag da Sanballat, Tobias ken Gesem a taga-Arabia ken dagiti dadduma a kabusormi a naibangonkon ti pader ken awanen dagiti paset a nabati nga adda giwangna, nupay saankopay a naikabil dagiti ridaw kadagiti ruangan,
2 That Sanballat and Geshem sent to me, saying, Come, let us meet together in some one of the villages in the plain of Ono. But they thought to do me mischief.
nangipatulod kaniak iti mensahe da Sanballat ken Gesem a kunada, “Umayka, agsasaraktayo iti kapatadan ti Ono.” Ngem ginandatdak a dangran.
3 And I sent messengers to them, saying, I am doing a great work, so that I cannot come down: why should the work cease, while I leave it, and come down to you?
Nangibaonak kadagiti mensahero a mapan kadakuada, a kunada, “Adu ti ar-aramidek ket saanak sumalog. Apay koma a maisardeng ti trabaho inton ibatik daytoy ket sumalogak a mapan kadakayo?”
4 Yet they sent to me four times in this way; and I answered them after the same manner.
Namin-uppat a nangipatulodda kaniak iti isu met laeng a mensahe, ket isu met laeng ti insungbatakko kadakuada tunggal mangipatulodda iti mensahe.
5 Then Sanballat sent his servant to me in like manner the fifth time with an open letter in his hand;
Imbaon ni Sanballat ti adipenna kaniak iti isu met laeng a wagas iti maikalima a daras, nga adda nakalukat a surat iti imana.
6 In which was written, It is reported among the heathen, and Gashmu saith it, that thou and the Jews think to rebel: for which cause thou buildest the wall, that thou mayest be their king, according to these words.
Naisurat iti daytoy, “Naipadamag daytoy kadagiti nasion, ket imbaga pay ni Gesem daytoy, a sika ken dagiti Judio ket agpangpanggep nga agrebelde, dayta ti gapuna a bangbangonenyo manen ti pader. Iti ibagbaga dagitoy a damag, ngannganikan nga agbalin nga arida.
7 And thou hast also appointed prophets to proclaim concerning thee at Jerusalem, saying, There is a king in Judah: and now shall it be reported to the king according to these words. Come now therefore, and let us take counsel together.
Ket nangdutokka pay kadagiti profeta a mangiwaragawag iti maipapan kenka idiay Jerusalem, a mangibagbaga, 'Adda ti ari idiay Juda!' Masiguradom a madamagto daytoy ti ari. Umayka ngarud ta agtutungtongta koma.”
8 Then I sent to him, saying, There are no such things done as thou sayest, but thou maketh up them out of thy own heart.
Ket nangipatulodak iti mensahe kenkuana a kunak, “Awan ti kasta a banbanag a napasamak a kas iti ibagbagam, pinarbom dagitoy iti pusom.”
9 For they all made us afraid, saying, Their hands shall be weakened from the work, that it may not be done. Now therefore, O God, strengthen my hands.
Gapu ta kayatda amin nga agbutengtayo, ipagpagarupda nga, “Isardengdanto nga agtrabaho, ket saanto a malpas daytoy.” Ngem ita, O Dios, pangngaasim ta papigsaem dagiti imak.
10 Afterward I came to the house of Shemaiah the son of Delaiah the son of Mehetabeel, who was shut up; and he said, Let us meet together in the house of God, within the temple, and let us shut the doors of the temple: for they will come to slay thee; yea, in the night will they come to slay thee.
Napanak iti balay ni Semaias, a putot ni Delaias, a putot ni Mehetabel, ta saanna a mapanawan ti balayna. Kinunana, “Agsarakta koma iti balay ti Dios, iti uneg ti templo, ket irekepta dagiti ridaw ti templo, gapu ta umaydaka patayen. Umayda iti rabii a mangpatay kenka.”
11 And I said, Should such a man as I flee? and who is there, that, being as I am, would go into the temple to save his life? I will not go in.
Insungbatko, “Tumaray aya met ti lalaki a kas kaniak? Mapan aya met iti templo ti lalaki a kas kaniak tapno agbiagak laeng? Saanak a mapan.”
12 And, lo, I perceived that God had not sent him; but that he pronounced this prophecy against me: for Tobiah and Sanballat had hired him.
Naamirisko a saan a ti Dios ti nangibaon kenkuana, ngem ketdi nangipadto isuna iti maibusor kaniak. Tinangdanan isuna da Sanballat kenTobias.
13 Therefore was he hired, that I should be afraid, and do so, and sin, and that they might have matter for a bad report, that they might reproach me.
Tinangdananda isuna a mangbutbuteng kaniak, tapno aramidek ti ibagbagana ket agbasolak, iti kasta ket mapadakesda ti naganko ken maibabaindak.
14 My God, think thou upon Tobiah and Sanballat according to these their works, and on the prophetess Noadiah, and the rest of the prophets, that would have put me in fear.
Laglagipem O Diosko, da Tobias ken Sanballat, ken amin nga inaramidda. Laglapipem met ti mammadto a babai a ni Nodias ken dagiti dadduma a mammadto a nangbutbuteng kaniak.
15 So the wall was finished in the twenty and fifth day of the month Elul, in fifty and two days.
Isu a nalpas ti pader iti maikaduapulo ket lima nga aldaw iti bulan ti Elul, kalpasan iti limapulo ket dua nga aldaw.
16 And it came to pass, that when all our enemies heard of it, and all the heathen that were about us saw these things, they were much cast down in their own eyes: for they perceived that this work was wrought by our God.
Idi nadamag dagiti amin a kabusortayo daytoy, dagiti amin a nasion iti agawlawtayo, nagbutengda ken naibabainda. Ta ammoda a nalpas ti trabaho babaen iti tulong ti Diostayo.
17 Moreover in those days the nobles of Judah sent many letters to Tobiah, and the letters of Tobiah came to them.
Iti daytoy a tiempo, adu a sursurat ti impatulod dagiti natatakneng a tattao ti Juda kenni Tobias, ken nakadanon dagiti surat ni Tobias kadakuada.
18 For there were many in Judah sworn to him, because he was the son in law of Shechaniah the son of Arah; and his son Johanan had taken the daughter of Meshullam the son of Berechiah.
Ta adu kadagiti taga-Juda ti nagsapata kenkuana, gapu ta isuna ket manugang ni Secanias a putot ni Ara. Inasawa ti putotna a ni Jehohanan ti babai a putot ni Mesullam a putot ni Berekias.
19 Also they reported his good deeds before me, and uttered my words to him. And Tobiah sent letters to put me in fear.
Imbagada met kaniak ti maipapan kadagiti nasasayaat nga aramidna ken dagiti sasaok kenkuana. Nangipatulod ni Tobias kadagiti surat kaniak tapno butbutngennak.
