Nehemiah 7
1 And it cometh to pass, when the wall hath been built, that I set up the doors, and the gatekeepers are appointed, and the singers, and the Levites,
Wɔwiee ɔfasuo no, na mesisii apono no wieeɛ no akyi, wɔyiyii apono no anohwɛfoɔ, nnwomtofoɔ ne Lewifoɔ.
2 and I charge Hanani my brother, and Hananiah head of the palace, concerning Jerusalem — for he [is] as a man of truth, and fearing God above many —
Meyii me nuabarima Hanani sɛ ɔne Hanania nni Yerusalem so. Na Hanania yɛ ɔsahene a ɔhwɛ aban no so, na ɔyɛ ɔnokwafoɔ a ɔsuro Onyame sene afoforɔ bebree.
3 and I say to them, 'Let not the gates of Jerusalem be opened till the heat of the sun, and while they are standing by let them shut the doors, and fasten, and appoint guards of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, each in his guard, and each over-against his house.'
Meka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Adekyeeɛ mu, sɛ ahuhuro ba a, mommma apono no ano nna hɔ. Na sɛ aponoanohwɛfoɔ wɔ adwuma mu koraa a, montoto mu, na mommram no. Monyi wɔn a wɔtete Yerusalem no bi, na wɔnnwɛn a obiara ba ne ɛberɛ a wɔahyɛ ama no no pɛpɛɛpɛ. Ebi bɛwɛn wɔ awɛneeɛ hɔ, na ebi nso awɛn wɔ wɔn ankasa afie anim.”
4 And the city [is] broad on both sides, and great, and the people [are] few in its midst, and there are no houses builded;
Saa ɛberɛ no na kuropɔn no so, na emu da hɔ, nanso na nnipa no nnɔɔso. Afie kakra bi na na ɛsisi kuropɔn no mu.
5 and my God putteth it unto my heart, and I gather the freeman, and the prefects, and the people, for the genealogy, and I find a book of the genealogy of those coming up at the beginning, and I find written in it: —
Na me Onyankopɔn maa me adwene sɛ memfrɛ kuropɔn no mu ntuanofoɔ ne ɔmanfoɔ no nyinaa nhyia, na wɔntwerɛ wɔn din. Na mahunu nnipa a wɔdii ɛkan sane baa Yuda no abusuadua nwoma. Nsɛm a na wɔatwerɛ agu mu nie:
6 These [are] sons of the province, those coming up of the captives of the removal that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon removed — and they turn back to Jerusalem and to Judah, each to his city —
Yeinom ne Yudafoɔ a wɔtwaa wɔn asuo kɔɔ amantam bi so, na wɔfirii nnommumfa mu sane baa Yerusalem ne Yuda nkuro afoforɔ so. Ɔhene Nebukadnessar na ɔtwaa wɔn asuo kɔɔ Babilonia.

61 And these [are] those coming up from Tel-Melah, Tel-Harsha, Cherub, Addon, and Immer — and they have not been able to declare the house of their fathers, and their seed, whether they [are] of Israel —
Ekuo foforɔ bi a saa ɛberɛ yi wɔfiri Tel-Melah, Tel-Harsa, Kerub, Adon ne Imer sane baa Yerusalem, nanso, wɔantumi ankyerɛ mu yie sɛ, wɔn anaa wɔn abusuafoɔ no ase firi Israel:

63 And of the priests: sons of Habaiah sons of Koz, sons of Barzillai, who hath taken from the daughters of Barzillai the Gileadite a wife, and is called by their name.
Asɔfoɔ baasa a wɔn din de Habaia, Hakos ne Barsilai asefoɔ nso baa Yerusalem. (Na saa Barsilai yi aware Barsilai a ɔfiri Gilead mmammaa no baako ama wafa ɔbaa no abusua din.)
64 These have sought their register among those reckoning themselves by genealogy, and it hath not been found, and they are redeemed from the priesthood,
Nanso, na wɔayera wɔn abusuadua nwoma no enti wɔamma wɔn ho ɛkwan amma wɔansom sɛ asɔfoɔ.
65 and the Tirshatha saith to them that they eat not of the most holy things till the standing up of the priest with Urim and Thummim.
Na amrado no mma ɛkwan mma wɔnnni afɔrebɔ nnuane mu kyɛfa mpo, gye sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ bi de ntonto kronkron bɔ a wɔfrɛ no Urim ne Tumim akyerɛ wɔn gyinabea wɔ saa asɛm yi ho.
66 All the assembly together [is] four myriads two thousand three hundred and sixty,

67 apart from their servants and their handmaids — these [are] seven thousand three hundred thirty and seven; and of them [are] singers and songstresses, two hundred forty and five.

70 And from the extremity of the heads of the fathers they have given to the work; the Tirshatha hath given to the treasure, of gold, drams a thousand, bowls fifty, priests' coats thirty and five hundred.
Abusua no bi ntuanofoɔ maa dwumadie no ho akyɛdeɛ. Amrado no too sikakorabea no mu sikakɔkɔɔ pranpran apem, sikakɔkɔɔ atam aduonum ne asɔfotadeɛ ahanum ne aduasa.
71 And of the heads of the fathers they have given to the treasure of the work, of gold, drams two myriads, and of silver, pounds two thousand and two hundred.
