Nehemiya 9

1 A rana ta ashirin da huɗu ga watan nan, Isra’ilawa suka taru, suna yin azumi, suna sa rigunan makoki, suna kuma zuba toka a kansu.

In the foure and twentieth day of this moneth the children of Israel were assembled with fasting, and with sackecloth, and earth vpon them.

2 Waɗanda suke zuriyar Isra’ilawa suka ware kansu daga dukan baƙi. Suka tsaya, suka kuma furta zunubansu da muguntar kakanninsu.

(And they that were of the seede of Israel were separated from all the strangers) and they stoode and confessed their sinnes and the iniquities of their fathers.

3 Sa’ad da suke nan a tsaye, aka ɗauki awa uku ana karanta Littafin Dokar Ubangiji Allahnsu. Aka kuma ɗauki awa uku ana sujada ga Ubangiji Allahnsu.

And they stood vp in their place and read in the booke of the Lawe of the Lord their GOD foure times on the day, and they confessed and worshipped the Lord their God foure times.

4 A kan dakalin kuwa akwai Lawiyawa, wato, Yeshuwa, Bani, Kadmiyel, Shebaniya, Bunni, Sherebiya, Bani da Kenani tsaye, waɗanda suka kira da babbar murya ga Ubangiji Allahnsu.

Then stoode vp vpon the staires of the Leuites Ieshua, and Bani, Kadmiel, Shebaniah, Bunni, Sherebiah, Bani, and Chenani, and cryed with a loud voyce vnto the Lord their God.

5 Lawiyawan nan, Yeshuwa, Kadmiyel, Bani, Hashabnehiya, Sherebiya, Hodiya, Shebaniya da Fetahahiya, suka ce, “Ku miƙe tsaye ku yabi Ubangiji Allahnku, wanda yake har abada abadin.” “Albarka ta tabbata ga sunanka mai ɗaukaka, bari kuma a ɗaukaka shi bisa dukan albarka da yabo.

And the Leuites said, euen Ieshua and Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabniah, Sherebiah, Hodiiah, Shebaniah and Pethahiah, Stande vp, and praise the Lord your God for euer, and euer, and let them praise thy glorious Name, O God, which excelleth aboue all thankesgiuing and praise.

6 Kai kaɗai ne Ubangiji. Kai ka yi sammai, har ma da sama sammai, da dukan rundunar taurari, da duniya da kuma dukan abin da yake cikinta, da tekuna da dukan abubuwan da suke cikinsu. Ka ba da rai ga kome, kuma rundunonin sama suna maka sujada.

Thou art Lord alone: thou hast made heauen, and the heauen of all heauens, with all their hoste, the earth, and all things that are therein, the seas, and al that are in them, and thou preseruest them all, and the host of the heauen worshippeth thee.

7 “Kai ne Ubangiji Allah, wanda ya zaɓi Abram, ya fitar da shi daga Ur na Kaldiyawa, ya kuma ba shi suna Ibrahim.

Thou art, O Lord, the God, that hast chosen Abram, and broughtest him out of Vr in Caldea, and madest his name Abraham,

8 Kai ka sami zuciyarsa da aminci a gare ka, ka kuma yi alkawari da shi cewa za ka ba zuriyarsa ƙasar Kan’aniyawa, da ta Hittiyawa, da ta Amoriyawa, da ta Ferizziyawa, da ta Yebusiyawa, da kuma ta Girgashiyawa. Ka kiyaye alkawarinka domin kai mai adalci ne.

And foundest his heart faithful before thee, and madest a couenant with him, to giue vnto his seede the lande of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, and Perizzites, and Iebusites, and Girgashites, and hast performed thy wordes, because thou art iust.

9 “Ka ga wahalar kakanninmu a Masar; ka kuwa ji kukansu a Jan Teku.

Thou hast also considered the affliction of our fathers in Egypt, and heard their cry by the red Sea,

10 Ka aika da alamu masu banmamaki da al’ajabai a kan Fir’auna, a kan dukan shugabanninsa da kuma a kan dukan mutanen ƙasarsa, gama ka ga irin danniyar da suka yi wa mutanenka. Ka samo wa kanka suna, wadda ta dawwama har yă zuwa yau.

And shewed tokens and wonders vpon Pharaoh, and on all his seruants, and on all the people of his land: for thou knewest that they dealt proudely against them: therefore thou madest thee a Name, as appeareth this day.

11 Ka raba teku a gaban kakanninmu, saboda su wuce cikinsa a busasshiyar ƙasa, amma ka hallaka masu binsu cikin zurfafa, nutse kamar dutse a cikin ruwa.

For thou didest breake vp the Sea before them, and they went through the middes of the Sea on dry lande: and those that pursued them, hast thou cast into the bottomes as a stone, in the mightie waters:

12 Da rana ka bishe kakanninmu da girgije, da dare kuwa ka bishe su da ginshiƙin wuta don ka ba su haske a hanyar da za su bi.

And leddest them in the day with a pillar of a cloude, and in the night with a pillar of fire to giue them light in the way that they went.

13 “Ka sauko a kan Dutsen Sinai; ka yi musu magana daga sama. Ka ba su ƙa’idodi da dokokin da suke masu adalci da kuma daidai, ka ba su farillai da umarnai da suke da kyau.

Thou camest downe also vpon mount Sinai, and spakest vnto them from heauen, and gauest them right iudgements, and true lawes, ordinances and good commandements,

14 Ka sanar da su Asabbacinka mai tsarki, ka kuma ba su umarnai, da farillai, da kuma dokoki ta wurin bawanka Musa.

And declaredst vnto them thine holy Sabbath, and commandedst them precepts, and ordinances, and lawes, by the hande of Moses thy seruant:

15 Cikin yunwansu ka ba su burodi daga sama, cikin ƙishirwansu kuma ka fitar musu ruwa daga dutse. Ka faɗa musu su shiga su mallaki ƙasar da ka rantse ta wurin ɗaga hannu cewa za ka ba su.

And gauest them bread from heauen for their hunger, and broughtest forth water for them out of the rocke for their thirst: and promisedst them that they shoulde goe in, and take possession of the land: for the which thou haddest lift vp thine hand for to giue them.

16 “Amma su kakanninmu, suka yi fariya da taurinkai, ba su kuwa yi biyayya ga umarnanka ba.

But they and our fathers behaued them selues proudely, and hardened their neck, so that they hearkened not vnto thy commandements,

17 Suka ƙi su saurare ka, suka kāsa tuna da mu’ujizan da ka aikata a cikinsu. Suka yi taurinkai, cikin tawayensu kuma suka naɗa shugaba don su koma bautarsu. Amma kai Allah ne mai gafartawa, mai alheri da jinƙai, mai jinkirin fushi, mai yalwar ƙauna. Saboda haka ba ka yashe su ba,

But refused to obey, and would not remember thy marueilous works that thou haddest done for them, but hardened their neckes, and had in their heads to returne to their bondage by their rebellion: but thou, O God of mercies, gratious and full of compassion, of long suffring and of great mercie, yet forsookest them not.

18 ko ma sa’ad da suka yi wa kansu siffar ɗan maraƙi, suka ce, ‘Wannan shi ne allahnku, wanda ya fitar da ku daga Masar,’ ko sa’ad da suka yi saɓo mai bantsoro.

Moreouer, when they made them a molten calfe (and said, This is thy God that brought thee vp out of the land of Egypt) and committed great blasphemies,

19 “Saboda jinƙanka mai girma, ba ka yashe su a hamada ba. Da rana, ginshiƙin girgije bai daina bishe su a hanyarsu ba, da dare kuma ginshiƙin wuta bai daina haskakawa a hanyar da za su bi ba.

Yet thou for thy great mercies forsookest them not in the wildernesse: the pillar of the cloude departed not from them by day to leade them the way, neither the pillar of fire by night, to shew them light, and the way whereby they should goe.

20 Ka ba da Ruhunka mai kyau don yă koyar da su. Ba ka janye Manna naka daga bakunansu ba, ka kuma ba su ruwa don ƙishirwansu.

Thou gauest also thy good Spirite to instruct them, and withheldest not thy MAN from their mouth, and gauest them water for their thirst.

21 Shekaru arba’in ka riƙe su a cikin hamada; ba su rasa kome ba, rigunansu ba su yage ba, ƙafafunsu kuwa ba su kumbura ba.

Thou didest also feede them fourtie yeres in ye wildernes: they lacked nothing: their clothes waxed not old, and their feete swelled not.

22 “Ka ba su mulkoki da al’ummai, kana ba su har ma da ƙasashen da suke jeji. Suka ci ƙasar Sihon na sarkin Heshbon da ƙasar Og inda sarkin Bashan yake mulki.

And thou gauest them kingdomes and people, and scatteredst them into corners: so they possessed the land of Sihon and the land of ye King of Heshbon, and the land of Og King of Bashan.

23 Ka sa’ya’yansu maza suka yi yawa kamar taurarin sararin sama, ka kuma kawo su cikin ƙasar da ka faɗa wa kakanninsu su shiga su mallake.

And thou diddest multiplie their children, like the starres of the heauen, and broughtest them into the lande, whereof thou haddest spoken vnto their fathers, that they should goe, and possesse it.

24 ’Ya’yansu maza suka shiga suka kuma mallaki ƙasar. A gabansu ka rinjayi Kan’aniyawan da suke zama a cikin ƙasar; ka ba da Kan’aniyawa a gare su, tare da sarakunansu da kuma mutanen ƙasar, su yi da su yadda suke so.

So the children went in, and possessed the lande, and thou subduedst before them the inhabitants of the lande, euen the Canaanites, and gauest them into their handes, with their Kings and the people of the lande, that they might do with them what they would.

25 Suka kame birane masu katanga masu ƙarfi, da ƙasa masu ba da amfani; suka mallaki gidaje cike da kowane irin abu mai kyau, da rijiyoyin da aka riga aka haƙa, da gonakin inabi, da gonakin itatuwan zaitun da kuma itatuwan ba da’ya’ya a yalwace a ciki. Suka ci suka ƙoshi, suka kuma yi ƙiba; suka ji daɗi cikin alherinka mai girma.

And they tooke their strong cities and the fat lande, and possessed houses, full of all goods, cisternes digged out, vineyardes, and oliues, and trees for foode in abundance, and they did eate, and were filled, and became fat, and liued in pleasure through thy great goodnesse.

26 “Amma suka yi rashin biyayya suka kuma yi tawaye gare ka; suka sa dokarka a bayansu. Suka kashe annabawanka waɗanda suka gargaɗe su don su mai da su gare ka; suka aikata saɓo mai bantsoro.

Yet they were disobedient, and rebelled against thee, and cast thy Lawe behinde their backes, and slewe thy Prophets (which protested among them to turne them vnto thee) and committed great blasphemies.

27 Saboda haka ka miƙa su ga abokan gābansu waɗanda suka yi musu danniya. Amma sa’ad da ake danniyarsu sai suka yi kuka gare ka. Daga sama ka ji su, cikin jinƙanka mai girma kuwa ka ba su mai ceto, wanda ya fisshe su daga hannun abokan gābansu.

Therefore thou deliueredst them into the hande of their enemies that vexed them: yet in the time of their affliction, when they cryed vnto thee, thou heardest them from the heauen, and through thy great mercies thou gauest them sauiours, who saued them out of the hande of their aduersaries.

28 “Amma nan da nan, da suka sami hutu, sai suka sāke aikata abin da yake mugu a idonka. Sai ka yashe su ga hannun abokan gābansu don su yi mulki a kansu. Sa’ad da suka yi kuka kuma gare ka, ka ji daga sama, cikin jinƙanka kuma ka fisshe su sau da sau.

But when they had rest, they returned to doe euill before thee: therefore leftest thou them in the hande of their enemies, so that they had the dominion ouer them, yet when they conuerted and cryed vnto thee, thou heardest them from heauen, and deliueredst them according to thy great mercies many times,

29 “Ka gargaɗe su su dawo ga dokarka, amma suka yi fariya, suka bijire wa umarnanka. Suka yi zunubi game da farillanka waɗanda ta wurinsu ne mutum zai rayu in ya yi biyayya da su. Cikin taurinkai suka juye bayansu daga gare ka, suka zama masu taurinkai, suka kuma ƙi su saurara.

And protestedst among them that thou mightest bring them againe vnto thy Lawe: but they behaued them selues proudely, and hearkened not vnto thy commandements, but sinned against thy iudgements (which a man should doe and liue in them) and pulled away the shoulder, and were stiffenecked, and woulde not heare.

30 Shekaru masu yawa ka yi haƙuri da su. Ta wurin Ruhunka ka gargaɗe su ta wurin annabawa. Duk da haka ba su kasa kunne ba, saboda haka ka miƙa su ga maƙwabtansu.

Yet thou diddest forbeare them many yeeres, and protestedst among them by thy Spirite, euen by the hande of thy Prophets, but they woulde not heare: therefore gauest thou them into the hande of the people of the lands.

31 Amma cikin tausayinka mai girma ba ka kawo su ga ƙarshe ko ka yashe su ba, gama kai Allah ne mai alheri da kuma mai jinƙai.

Yet for thy great mercies thou hast not consumed them, neither forsaken them: for thou art a gracious and mercifull God.

32 “To yanzu, ya Allahnmu, mai girma, mai iko, da kuma mai banrazana, wanda yake kiyaye alkawarinsa na ƙauna, kada ka bar dukan wannan wahala ta zama kamar marar muhimmanci a idanunka, wahalar da ta zo a kanmu, a kan sarakunanmu da shugabanni, a kan firistocinmu da annabawa, a kan kakanninmu da kuma dukan mutanenka, daga kwanakin sarakunan Assuriya har yă zuwa yau.

Nowe therefore our God, thou great God, mightie and terrible, that keepest couenant and mercie, let not all the affliction that hath come vnto vs, seeme a litle before thee, that is, to our Kings, to our princes, and to our Priests, and to our Prophets, and to our fathers, and to all thy people since the time of the Kings of Asshur vnto this day.

33 Cikin dukan abubuwan da suka faru da mu, ka kasance mai adalci; ka yi aminci, yayinda mu kuwa muka aikata mugu.

Surely thou art iust in all that is come vpon vs: for thou hast dealt truely, but we haue done wickedly.

34 Sarakunanmu, da shugabanninmu, da firistocinmu da kuma kakanninmu ba su bi dokarka ba, ba su ma mai da hankali ga umarnanka ko gargaɗin da ka yi musu ba.

And our kings and our princes, our Priests and our fathers haue not done thy Lawe, nor regarded thy commandements nor thy protestations, wherewith thou hast protested among them.

35 Ko ma yayinda suke a masarautarsu, suna jin daɗin girmar kyautatawarka gare su, cikin ƙasar mai girma, da kuma mai fāɗin da ka ba su, ba su bauta maka ko su juye daga mugayen hanyoyinsu ba.

And they haue not serued thee in their kingdome, and in thy great goodnesse that thou shewedst vnto them, and in the large and fat lande which thou diddest set before them, and haue not conuerted from their euill workes.

36 “Amma duba, mu bayi ne a yau, bayi a ƙasar da ka ba kakanninmu don su ci amfaninta da kuma waɗansu abubuwa masu kyau da take bayarwa.

Beholde, we are seruants this day, and the lande that thou gauest vnto our fathers, to eate the fruite thereof, and the goodnesse thereof, beholde, we are seruants therein.

37 Saboda zunubanmu, yalwar girbin da muke samu yana tafiya wurin sarakunan da ka sa a kanmu. Suna mulki bisa jikunanmu, da bisa garkenmu yadda suka ga dama. Muna cikin baƙin ciki.

And it yeeldeth much fruit vnto the kings whom thou hast set ouer vs, because of our sinnes: and they haue dominion ouer our bodyes and ouer our cattell at their pleasure, and we are in great affliction.

38 “Saboda wannan duka, muna yin zaunannen alkawari, muna sa shi a rubuce, shugabanninmu kuwa da Lawiyawanmu, da firistocinmu suna buga hatimansu a kai.”

Now because of all this we make a sure couenant, and write it, and our princes, our Leuites and our Priestes seale vnto it.
