1 Esi Sanbalat kple Tobia kple Gesem, Arabiatɔ la kple míaƒe futɔ mamlɛawo se be, esusɔ vie ko míawu gli la ɖoɖo nu, eye gbagbãƒe aɖeke megasusɔ o, togbɔ be míede ʋɔtru agboawo nu o hã la,
Forsothe it was doon, whanne Sanaballath hadde herd, and Tobie, and Gosem of Arabie, and oure other enemyes, that Y hadde bildide the wal, and nomore brekyng was therynne; sotheli `til to that tyme Y hadde not set leeuys of schittyng in the yatis;
2 Sanbalat kple Gesem ɖo du ɖem be, “Va do go mí le kɔƒeawo dometɔ ɖeka me le Ono tagba,” gake ɖe woɖo be yewoawɔ nuvevim,
Sanaballath, and Tobie, and Gosem of Arabie senten to me, and seiden, Come thou, and smyte we boond of pees in calues, `in o feeld; forsothe thei thouyten for to do yuel to me.
3 eya ta megblɔ ɖo ɖe wo be, “Mele dɔ gã aɖe wɔm! Nyemate ŋu aɖe asi le dɔ la ŋu ava o. Nu ka tae maɖe asi le dɔ la ŋu ava do go mi ɖo?”
Therfor Y sente messangeris to hem, and Y seide, Y make a greet werk, and Y mai not go doun, lest perauenture it be doon retchelesli, whanne Y come, and go doun to you.
4 Woɖo du ma ke ɖem zi ene, eye nye hã meɖo ŋuɖoɖo ma ke ɖe wo ɣe sia ɣi.
Sotheli thei senten to me `bi this word bi foure tymes, and Y answeride to hem by the formere word.
5 Ke zi atɔ̃lia la, Sanbalat ɖo eƒe dɔla ɖem kple gbedeasi ma ke, eye wòlé agbalẽ si nu wometre o la ɖe asi.
And Sanaballath sente to me the fyuethe tyme bi the formere word his child; and he hadde in his hond a pistle writun in this maner;
6 Eme nyawoe nye: “Woɖe gbeƒã le dukɔwo dome be wò kple Yudatɔwo mieɖo be yewoadze aglã, eya ta miele gli la ɖɔm ɖo. Gesem ɖo kpe edzi be ele eme. Gawu la, le nya siwo gblɔm wole nu la, esusɔ vie woatsɔ wò aɖo woƒe fiae,
It is herd among hethene men, and Gosem seide, that thou and the Jewis thenken for to rebelle, and therfor ye bilden, and thou wolt `reise thee king on hem;
7 eye kura gɔ̃ hã la, èɖo Nyagblɔɖilawo be woaɖe gbeƒã nya sia le Yerusalem be, ‘Fia le Yuda si!’ Azɔ la, nutsotso sia aɖo fia gbɔ, eya ta va, ne miade aɖaŋu.”
for which cause also thou hast set profetis, that prechen of thee in Jerusalem, and seien, A king is in Jerusalem; the king schal here these wordis; therfor come thou now, that we take counsel togidere.
8 Nye ŋuɖoɖoe nye, “Wò ŋutɔ ènya be alakpa sɔŋ ko dam yele, nyateƒe aɖeke kura mele nya blibo sia me o.”
And Y sente to hem, and seide, It is not doon bi these wordis whiche thou spekist; for of thin herte thou makist these thingis.
9 Wo katã wole agbagba dzem be woado ŋɔdzi na mí hesusu be, “Woƒe alɔwo ado agblɔ le dɔ la ŋu, eye womate ŋu awu enu o.” Ke medo gbe ɖa be, “Do ŋusẽ nye alɔwo azɔ.”
Alle these men maden vs aferd, and thouyten that oure hondis schulden ceesse fro werkis, that we schulden reste; for which cause Y coumfortide more myn hond.
10 Gbe ɖeka la, meɖi tsa yi Semaya, Delaya ƒe vi, ame si nye Mehetabel ƒe tɔgbuiyɔvi, ame si tu ʋɔ ɖe eɖokui nu le eƒe aƒe me la gbɔ, elabena egblɔ nam be, nya aɖe tso Mawu gbɔ gbɔna na ye. Esi meɖo la, egblɔ nam be, “Na míayi aɖabe ɖe gbedoxɔ la me, eye míatu ʋɔtruawo goŋgoŋgoŋ, elabena wogbɔna be woawu mí le zã sia me.”
And Y entride priueli in to the hows of Samaie, sone of Dalie, the sone of Methabehel, which seide, Trete we with vs silf in the hows of God, in the myddis of the temple, and close we the yatis of the hows; for thei schulen come to sle thee, `and thei schulen come `bi niyt to sle thee.
11 Gake meɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Ɖe ame abe nye ene masia? Alo ɖe ame abe nye ene mayi gbedoxɔ me be maɖe nye agbea? Gbeɖe, nyemayi o!”
And Y seide, Whether ony man lijk me fledde, and who as Y schal entre in to the temple, and schal lyue?
12 Mekpɔe dze sii be, Mawu medɔe o, ke boŋ egblɔ nya ɖi nam, elabena Tobia kple Sanbalat wodɔe be wòagblɔ nya sia ɖi.
Y schal not entre. And Y vndurstood that God `hadde not sent hym, but `he spak as profesiynge to me; and Tobie and Sanaballath `hadden hirid hym for meede.
13 Ɖe wodae be wòado ŋɔdzi nam ne mawɔ nu vɔ̃ to nu sia wɔwɔ me, eye woaɖe vɔ̃e nam, aƒo ɖi nye ŋkɔ.
For he hadde take prijs, that Y schulde be aferd, and do, and that Y schulde do synne; and thei schulden haue yuel, which thei schulden putte to me with schenschip.
14 Medo gbe ɖa be, “O! Nye Mawu, mègaŋlɔ Tobia, Sanbalat, Noaɖia, nyagblɔɖila la kple nyagblɔɖila bubu siwo katã dze agbagba be yewoado ŋɔdzi nam la ƒe nu vɔ̃wo be o.”
Lord, haue mynde of me, for Tobye and Sanaballath, bi siche werkis `of hem; but also of Noadie, the profete, and of othere profetis, that maden me aferd.
15 Míewu gli la ɖoɖo nu le ɣleti Elul ƒe ŋkeke blaeve-vɔ-atɔ̃lia gbe le ŋkeke blaatɔ̃ vɔ eve ƒe dɔwɔwɔ megbe.
Forsothe the wal was fillid in the fyue and twentithe dai of the monethe Ebul, in two and fifti daies.
16 Esi míaƒe futɔwo kple dukɔ siwo ƒo xlã mí se be míegbugbɔ gli la ɖo vɔ la, vɔvɔ̃ ɖo wo, eye dzi ɖe le wo ƒo, elabena wodze sii be míaƒe Mawu ƒe kpekpeɖeŋue na míete ŋu wu dɔ la nu.
Sotheli it was doon, whanne alle oure enemyes hadden herd, that alle hethene men dredden, that weren in oure cumpas, and thei felden doun with ynne hem silf, and wiste, that this work was maad of God.
17 Le ŋkeke blaatɔ̃ vɔ eve siawo me la, agbalẽŋɔŋlɔ nɔ Tobia kple Yudatɔwo ƒe dunyahela kesinɔtɔwo dome.
But also in tho daies many pistlis of the principal men of Jewis weren sent to Tobie, and camen fro Tobie to hem.
18 Eva eme alea elabena Yudatɔ geɖewo ka atam na Tobia le esi toa nye Sekania, Ara ƒe vi, eye via Yehohanan ɖe Mesulam, Berekia ƒe vi ƒe nyɔnuvi la ta.
For many men weren in Judee, and hadden his ooth; for he hadde weddid the douyter of Sechenye, the sone of Rotel; and Johannam, his sone, hadde take the douyter of Mosallam, sone of Barachie.
19 Gawu la, wo katã woɖia ɖase nam enuenu tso eƒe dɔ nyuiwo wɔwɔ ŋu, eye wotoa nya siwo katã megblɔna la hã nɛ. Ale Tobia ɖo agbalẽwo ɖa be wòatsɔ ado ŋɔdzi nam.
But also thei preisiden hym bifor me, and telden my wordis to hym; and Tobie sente lettris, for to make me aferd.
