Neemi 11

1 Tout moun ki te chèf pèp la te rete lavil Jerizalèm. Men pou rès pèp la, yo tire osò pou yo chwazi yon fanmi sou chak dis fanmi pou al viv nan lavil Bondye a, Jerizalèm. Tout rès yo va rete nan lòt lavil yo.

And the rulers of the people dwelt in Jerusalem, —and, the rest of the people, cast lots, to bring in one out of ten to dwell in Jerusalem, the holy city, and nine parts in [other] cities.

2 Pèp la te fè lwanj tout moun ki te ofri tèt yo pou yo rete lavil Jerizalèm.

And the people bestowed a blessing on all the men, who willingly offered themselves to dwell in Jerusalem.

3 Men lis chèf ki t'ap dirije pwovens Jida a, epi ki te rete lavil Jerizalèm. Rès moun pèp Izrayèl la, prèt yo, moun Levi yo, travayè tanp yo ak pitit domestik wa Salomon yo t'ap viv nan lòt lavil peyi Jida a, chak moun nan lavil kote yo te moun lan, sou pòsyon tè ki te pou yo a.

23 Se wa a menm ki te bay lòd sa a. Te gen yon regleman tou ki te mande pou mizisyen sa yo te fè woulman nan travay yo yonn apre lòt, yon jou pou chak moun.
