Nehemia 7
1 Na rĩrĩ, rũthingo rwarĩka gwakwo rĩngĩ, na niĩ ngĩkorwo njĩkĩrĩte mĩrango ihingo-inĩ-rĩ, nĩrĩo arangĩri a ihingo, na aini, na Alawii maathuurirwo.
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 Nĩndatuire Hanani mũrũ wa baba mũrũgamĩrĩri wa Jerusalemu, marĩ na Hanania mũnene wa gĩikaro kĩgitĩre kĩa mũthamaki, tondũ aarĩ mũndũ mwĩhokeku, na agetigĩra Ngai gũkĩra andũ arĩa angĩ.
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 Ngĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ihingo cia Jerusalemu itikahingũragwo, o nginya rĩrĩa riũa rĩrĩkoragwo rĩarĩte. Ningĩ o na rĩrĩa arangĩri a ihingo marĩ wĩra-inĩ, nĩmaikarage mahingĩte mĩrango ĩyo, na makamĩĩkĩra mĩgĩĩko. Ningĩ mũthuure aikari a Jerusalemu matuĩke arangĩri, amwe marangagĩre harĩa matuĩrĩirwo kũrangĩra, na arĩa angĩ marangagĩre hakuhĩ na nyũmba ciao.”
And I said unto them, Let not the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun 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 opposite to his house.
4 Na rĩrĩ, itũũra rĩa Jerusalemu rĩarĩ inene mũno na rĩkaarama, no andũ arĩa maatũũraga kuo maarĩ anini, na nyũmba itiakoretwo ciakĩtwo rĩngĩ.
Now the city was large and great: but the people were few therein, and the houses were not built.

And my God put into mine heart to gather together 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 which came up at the first, and found written therein,
