< Nehemiah 7 >
1 Now when the wall was built and I had set up the doors, and the gatekeepers and the singers and the Levites were appointed,
Tango misala ya kotonga mir esilaki mpe natiaki bizipelo ya bikuke, batiaki bakengeli bikuke, bayembi mpe Balevi: bato na bato na mosala na bango.
2 I put my brother Hanani, and Hananiah the governor of the fortress, in charge of Jerusalem; for he was a faithful man and feared God above many.
Napesaki mokumba ya kokamba engumba Yelusalemi epai ya Anani, ndeko na ngai ya mobali, mpe epai ya Anania, moyangeli ya engumba batonga makasi, oyo, koleka bato ebele, azalaki moto ya sembo mpe azalaki kotosa Nzambe.
3 I said to them, “Don’t let the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun is hot; and while they stand guard, let them shut the doors, and you bar them; and appoint watches of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, everyone in his watch, with everyone near his house.”
Nalobaki na bango: — Bikuke ya Yelusalemi esengeli te kofungwama liboso ete moyi engala, mpe, na pokwa, bakokanga makasi bizipelo na yango mpe bakokotisa yango bikangelo, wana bakengeli bikuke bakozala nanu na bisika na bango ya mosala. Botia lisusu lokola bakengeli, bavandi ya Yelusalemi: bamoko bakozala na bisika na bango ya mosala, mpe bamosusu bakokengela pembeni ya bandako na bango.
4 Now the city was wide and large; but the people were few therein, and the houses were not built.
Nzokande, etando ya engumba Yelusalemi ezalaki monene mpe ekenda mosika makasi, kasi bato kati na yango bazalaki moke mpe bandako etongamaki nanu te.
5 My God put into my heart to gather together the nobles, and the rulers, and the people, that they might be listed by genealogy. I found the book of the genealogy of those who came up at the first, and I found this written in it:
Nzambe na ngai apesaki ngai makanisi ya kosangisa bankumu, bakambi mpe bato mosusu mpo na kotanga motango na bango kolanda mabota na bango. Bongo, namonaki buku ya bokoko ya ba-oyo bazongaki bato ya liboso longwa na bowumbu. Tala makomi oyo namonaki kuna:
6 These are the children of the province who went up out of the captivity of those who had been carried away, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away, and who returned to Jerusalem and to Judah, everyone to his city,
Tala bato ya etuka ya Yuda, oyo Nabukodonozori, mokonzi ya Babiloni, amemaki na bowumbu; mpe wuta na bowumbu, bazongaki na Yelusalemi mpe na Yuda, moto na moto na engumba na ye;

61 These were those who went up from Tel Melah, Tel Harsha, Cherub, Addon, and Immer; but they could not show their fathers’ houses, nor their offspring, whether they were of Israel:
Tala molongo ya bato oyo bawutaki na bowumbu, na bingumba Teli-Mela, Teli-Arisha, Kerubi-Adoni mpe Imeri, kasi balongaki te kolakisa ete mabota na bango ya botata ewuta na Isalaele:

Mpe kati na Banganga-Nzambe: bakitani ya Obaya, ya Akotsi mpe ya Barizilayi oyo abengamaki « Barizilayi » mpo ete abalaki mwana mwasi ya Barizilayi, moto ya Galadi.
64 These searched for their genealogical records, but couldn’t find them. Therefore they were deemed disqualified and removed from the priesthood.
Balukaki mikanda oyo bakoma bakombo ya bakoko na bango, kasi batikalaki komona yango te. Boye balongolaki bango na mosala ya bonganga-Nzambe, pamba te bazalaki mbindo.
65 The governor told them not to eat of the most holy things until a priest stood up to minister with Urim and Thummim.
Moyangeli apekisaki bango kolia bilei ya bule kino tango Nganga-Nzambe moko akotuna toli ya Yawe na tina na bango na nzela ya Urimi mpe Tumimi.
66 The whole assembly together was forty-two thousand three hundred sixty,
Motango ya lisanga mobimba ya bato oyo bawutaki na bowumbu ezalaki nkoto tuku minei na mibale na nkama misato na tuku motoba,
67 in addition to their male servants and their female servants, of whom there were seven thousand three hundred thirty-seven. They had two hundred forty-five singing men and singing women.

68 Their horses were seven hundred thirty-six; their mules, two hundred forty-five;
69 their camels, four hundred thirty-five; their donkeys, six thousand seven hundred twenty.

70 Some from among the heads of fathers’ households gave to the work. The governor gave to the treasury one thousand darics of gold, fifty basins, and five hundred thirty priests’ garments.
Bakambi mingi ya mabota bapesaki makabo oyo bakataki kopesa wuta na mitema na bango moko, mpo na misala ya kotonga Tempelo. Moyangeli apesaki na libenga ya misala mbongo ya bibende ya wolo nkoto moko, bakopo tuku mitano mpe banzambala nkama mitano na tuku misato ya mosala ya bonganga-Nzambe.
71 Some of the heads of fathers’ households gave into the treasury of the work twenty thousand darics of gold, and two thousand two hundred minas of silver.
Bakambi mosusu ya mabota bapesaki na libenga ya misala mbongo ya bibende ya wolo nkoto tuku mibale mpe mbongo ya bibende ya palata nkoto mibale na nkama mibale na tuku mibale.
72 That which the rest of the people gave was twenty thousand darics of gold, plus two thousand minas of silver, and sixty-seven priests’ garments.
Batikali kati na bato bapesaki mbongo ya bibende ya wolo nkoto tuku mibale, mbongo ya bibende ya palata nkoto mibale mpe banzambala tuku motoba na sambo ya mosala ya bonganga-Nzambe.
73 So the priests, the Levites, the gatekeepers, the singers, some of the people, the temple servants, and all Israel lived in their cities. When the seventh month had come, the children of Israel were in their cities.
