Nehemia 7
1 Esi míewu gli la ɖoɖo nu, de ʋɔtru agboawo nu, eye míetia agbonudzɔlawo, hadzilawo kple Levitɔwo la,
Now it came to pass, when the wall was built, and I had set up the doors, and the porters and the singers and the Levites were appointed,
2 metsɔ Yerusalem dzikpɔkpɔ de asi na nɔvinye Hanani kple Hananiya, ame siwo nye mɔ la dzikpɔlawo. Wonye nuteƒewɔla siwo vɔ̃a Mawu wu ame geɖewo.
That I gave my brother Hanani, and Hananiah the ruler of the palace, charge over Jerusalem: for he [was] a faithful man, and feared God above many.
3 Mede se na wo be, womaʋu Yerusalem ƒe agboawo o va se ɖe esime ɣe nadze nyuie hafi, eye woatu wo, ade ga wo me le esime dzɔlawo aganɔ gliawo ŋu dzɔm ko.

And I said to them, Let not the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun shall be hot; and while they stand by, let them shut the doors, and bar [them]: and appoint watches of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, every one in his watch, and every one [to be] over against his house.
4 Du la lolo, gake emenɔlawo mesɔ gbɔ o, xɔawo hã mesɔ gbɔ o, ke boŋ woɖe ɖe aga tso wo nɔewo gbɔ le du la me.
Now the city [was] large and great: but the people in it [were] few, and the houses [were] not built.

And my God put into my heart to assemble the nobles, and the rulers, and the people, that they might be reckoned by genealogy. And I found a register of the genealogy of them who came up at the first, and found written in it,
