< Neemi 7 >

1 Lè nou te fin rebati miray la, nou moute gwo batan pòtay yo. Nou bay gad tanp yo, moun k'ap chante yo ak moun Levi yo travay yo gen pou yo fè.
Now it happened, when the wall was built, and I had set up the doors, and the gatekeepers and the singers and the Levites were appointed,
2 Mwen mete de moun reskonsab pou gouvènen lavil Jerizalèm lan. Se te Anani, frè mwen an, ak Ananya, kòmandan gwo fò a. Ananya sa a te yon nonm serye ki te gen krentif pou Bondye. Pa t' gen tankou l'.
that I put my brother Hanani, and Hananiah the commander of the fortress, in charge of Jerusalem; for he was a faithful man, and feared God above many.
3 Mwen di yo pa kite yo louvri pòtay lavil Jerizalèm yo nan maten toutotan solèy la pa konmanse cho. Konsa tou, aswè se devan yo pou yo fè fèmen batan pòtay yo epi pou yo mete ba yo dèyè pòtay yo anvan gad yo leve pòs le solèy pral kouche. Y'a chwazi kèk moun nan moun ki rete lavil Jerizalèm yo, yon seri pou fè pòs sou miray la, yon lòt pou fè patwouy bò lakay yo.
I said to them, "Do not let the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun is hot; and while they stand guard, let them shut the doors, and you bar them: and appoint watches of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, everyone in his watch, with everyone near his house."
4 Lavil la te gran anpil, te gen anpil espas, men pa t' gen anpil moun ki t'ap viv ladan l'. Yo pa t' ankò rebati anpil kay.
Now the city was wide and large; but the people were few in it, and the houses were not built.
5 Bondye mete nan tèt mwen lide pou m' sanble tout pèp la ak chèf yo, majistra yo, pou m' fè yon resansman, fanmi pa fanmi. N' al tonbe sou ansyen rejis resansman premye moun ki te tounen nan peyi a. Nan rejis sa a m' te jwenn
My God put into my heart to gather together the nobles, and the rulers, and the people, that they might be reckoned by genealogy. I found the book of the genealogy of those who came up at the first, and I found written in it:
6 lis moun ki te kite pwovens Babilòn pou yo tounen lavil Jerizalèm ak nan peyi Jida, chak moun nan lavil kote yo te moun. Se moun sa yo wa Nèbikadneza te fè depòte nan peyi Babilòn.
These are the people of the province, who went up out of the captivity of those who had been carried away, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away, and who returned to Jerusalem and to Judah, everyone to his city;

These were those who went up from Tel Melah, Tel Harsha, Cherub, Addan, and Immer; but they could not prove their ancestral houses, nor their descent, whether they were of Israel:

Of the priests: the descendants of Hobaiah, the descendants of Hakkoz, the descendants of Barzillai, who took a wife of the daughters of Barzillai the Gileadite, and was called after their name.
64 Moun sa yo pa t' ka jwenn rejis pou moutre ki moun ki zansèt yo. Konsa yo pa t' asepte yo pou prèt.
These searched for their genealogical records, but couldn't find them. Therefore were they deemed polluted and put from the priesthood.
65 Gouvènè jwif la te di yo yo pa t' kapab manje nan manje yo mete apa pou Bondye a toutotan pa t' gen prèt ki konn sèvi ak Ourim yo ansanm ak Tourim yo pou wè sa Bondye di nan sa.

Some from among the heads of ancestral houses gave to the work. The governor gave to the treasury one thousand darics of gold, fifty basins, and five hundred thirty priests' garments.
71 Chèf fanmi yo te bay pou mete nan kès la pou fè travay la: senkmil katsan (5.400) ons lò ak senkanteyenmil katsansenkant (51.450) ons ajan.
Some of the heads of ancestral houses gave into the treasury of the work twenty thousand darics of gold, and two thousand two hundred minas of silver.
72 Rès moun pèp la te fè anpil kado tou. Antou, yo te bay senkmil katsan (5.400) ons lò, karannsimil sètsanswasanndis (46.770) ons ajan ak swasannsèt rad pou prèt yo.
That which the rest of the people gave was twenty thousand darics of gold, and two thousand minas of silver, and sixty-seven priests' garments.
73 Prèt yo, moun Levi yo, gad pòtay tanp yo, mizisyen yo ak anpil nan moun pèp Izrayèl yo ansanm ak travayè tanp yo, wi tout pèp Izrayèl la al rete nan lavil kote yo moun.
So the priests, and the Levites, and the gatekeepers, and the singers, and some of the people, and the Nethinim, and all Israel, lived in their cities. When the seventh month had come, the children of Israel were in their cities.
