Pea naʻe fakakātoa fakataha ʻakinautolu ʻe he kakai ʻo hangē ko e tangata pē taha ʻi he hala lahi ʻaia naʻe hangatonu ki he matapā vai: pea naʻa nau lea kia Esela ko e tangata tohi ke ʻomi ʻae tohi ʻoe fono ʻa Mōsese, ʻaia naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova ki ʻIsileli.
2 Ya mere, Ezra, onye nchụaja wepụtara akwụkwọ Iwu ahụ nʼụbọchị mbụ nke ọnwa asaa nʼihu mkpọkọta ahụ bụ nke ndị ikom na ndị inyom na onye ọbụla ga-aghọta ihe mejupụtara.
Pea naʻe ʻomi ʻe Esela ko e tangata tohi ʻae fono ki he ʻao ʻoe fakataha ʻoe kau tangata mo e kau fefine, pea mo kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe faʻa fanongo mo e loto ʻilo, ʻi he ʻuluaki ʻaho ʻi hono fitu ʻoe māhina.
3 O chere ihu nʼỌnụ Ụzọ Ama Mmiri were oke olu gụọ ya site nʼụtụtụ ruokwa ehihie nʼihu ndị nwoke, ndị nwanyị na ndị ọzọ nwere ike ịghọta ihe o na-agụ. Mmadụ niile gekwara ntị na ngụpụta nke akwụkwọ iwu ahụ.
Pea naʻa ne lau ʻe ia ʻi ai ʻi he hala ʻaia naʻe hangatonu ki he matapā vai mei he pongipongi ki he hoʻatā, ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kau tangata mo e kau fefine, mo kinautolu naʻe ʻilo hono ʻuhinga; pea naʻe fanongo ʻe he kakai kotoa pē ki he tohi ʻoe fono.
4 Ezra onye ode akwụkwọ, rigoro nʼelu ihe mgbakwasị ụkwụ ha mere maka nke a. Ndị guzo nʼaka nri ya bụ, Matitaia, Shema, Anaia, Ụraya, Hilkaya na Maaseia. Ndị guzo nʼaka ekpe ya bụkwa ndị a: Pedaia, Mishael, Malkija, Hashum, Hashbadana, Zekaraya na Meshulam.
Pea naʻe tuʻu ʻa Esela ko e tangata tohi ki he tuʻunga ʻakau, ʻaia naʻa nau ngaohi ki he meʻa ko ia: pea naʻe tuʻu mo ia ʻa Matitia, mo Sema, mo ʻAnaia, mo Ulisa, mo Hilikia, mo Maaseia ʻi hono nima toʻomataʻu; pea ʻi hono toʻohema, ko Pitaia, mo Misaeli, mo Melikia, mo Hasumi, mo Hasipatana, mo Sakalia, mo Mesulami.
5 Ezra meghere akwụkwọ ahụ mgbe mmadụ niile na-ahụzu ya nʼihi na o guzoro nʼebe dị elu mgbe ọ na-agụ ya. Mmadụ niile guzoro ọtọ mgbe ọ na-agụ ya.
Pea naʻe folahi ʻe Esela ʻae tohi ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai kotoa pē: (he naʻe māʻolunga ia ʻi he kakai kotoa pē; ) pea ʻi heʻene folahi ia, naʻe tuʻu hake ai ʻae kakai kotoa pē:
6 Mgbe ahụ, Ezra gọziri Onyenwe anyị Chineke ukwu ahụ, mmadụ niile zakwara sị; “Amen! Amen!” Ha chịlịri aka ha abụọ elu, kpọọ isiala nye Onyenwe anyị.
“Pea naʻe fakafetaʻi ʻe Esela kia Sihova, ko e ʻOtua lahi.” Pea naʻe tali ʻe he kakai kotoa pē, “ʻEmeni, ʻEmeni,” ʻo hiki hake honau nima: pea naʻa nau punou hifo honau ʻulu, ʻo hū kia Sihova mo honau mata ki he kelekele.
7 Ndị Livayị aha ha bụ Jeshua, Bani, Sherebaya, Jamin, Akub, Shabetai, Hodia, Maaseia, Kelita, Azaraya, Jozabad, Hanan na Pelia, kuziri ndị mmadụ ihe dị nʼIwu mee ka ha ghọta ya dịka ha guzo nʼebe ahụ.
Pea ko Sesua foki mo Pani, mo Selepea, mo Samini, mo ʻAkupi, mo Sapitei, mo Hotisa, mo Maaseia, mo Kilita, mo ʻAsalia, mo Sosapati, mo Hanani, mo Pelaia, mo e kau Livai, naʻa nau ako ki he kakai ke nau ʻilo ʻae fono pea naʻe tutuʻu ʻae kakai ʻi honau potu:
8 Ha gụpụtara site nʼakwụkwọ iwu Chineke ahụ, sụgharịa ya, kọwazie ọkpụrụkpụ okwu niile dị nʼihe a gụpụtara, mee ka ndị mmadụ ghọta ihe a na-agụpụta nke ọma.
Ko ia naʻa nau lau fakapatonu ʻi he tohi ʻi he fono ʻae ʻOtua, mo fakamatala hono ʻuhinga, pea akonakiʻi ʻakinautolu ke ʻilo hono ʻuhinga ʻoe lau.
9 Mgbe ahụ, Nehemaya, onyeisi ọchịchị, na Ezra, ode akwụkwọ na onye nchụaja, na ndị Livayị ahụ na-atụziri ndị mmadụ ihe, gwara ndị ahụ niile sị: “Taa bụ ụbọchị dị nsọ nye Onyenwe anyị, Chineke unu. Unu erula ụjụ maọbụ bee akwa.” Nʼihi na ha niile na-akwa akwa mgbe ha na-ege ntị nʼokwu niile nke iwu ahụ.
Pea ko Nehemaia, ʻaia ko e ʻeiki pule, mo Esela ko e taulaʻeiki mo e tangata tohi, mo e kau Livai ʻaia naʻe akonakiʻi ʻae kakai, naʻa nau lau ki he kakai kotoa pē, “ʻOku māʻoniʻoni ʻae ʻaho ni kia Sihova ko homou ʻOtua: ʻoua naʻa mou mamahi, pe tangi. He naʻe tangi ʻae kakai kotoa pē, ʻi heʻenau fanongo ki he ngaahi lea ʻoe fono.”
10 Nehemaya gwakwara ha sị; “Laanụ nʼụlọ unu gaa mee mmemme oriri na ọṅụṅụ nyekwanụ ndị na-enweghị nke ha ga-eri. Ụbọchị taa dị nsọ nye Chineke anyị. Unu erukwala ụjụ, nʼihi na ọṅụ Onyenwe anyị bụ ike unu.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻAlu ʻi homou hala, kai ʻae ngako, pea inu ʻae meʻa melie, pea fekau ke ʻave ʻae ngaahi ʻinasi kiate kinautolu ʻaia naʻe ʻikai teuteu ha meʻa ʻe taha ki ai: he ʻoku māʻoniʻoni ʻae ʻaho ni ki hotau ʻOtua: pea ʻoua naʻa mou loto mamahi: he ko e fiefia ʻa Sihova ko homou mālohi.”
11 Ndị Livayị mere ka ndị mmadụ ahụ nọrọ nwayọọ, na-asị, “Nọrọnụ nwayọọ, nʼihi na taa bụ ụbọchị dị nsọ, ọ bụghị ụbọchị iru ụjụ na anya mmiri.”
Pea naʻe lolomi ʻe he kau Livai ʻae kakai kotoa pē, ʻo pehē, “Mou longo pe, he ʻoku māʻoniʻoni ʻae ʻaho ni: pea ʻoua foki naʻa mou mamahi.”
12 Ya mere, ha niile lawara ị ga rie ma ṅụọ, na ikenye ndị ọzọ site nʼihe ha nwere. Ha gakwara ime mmemme nke oke ọṅụ, nʼihi na ha ghọtara okwu agwara ha.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻi honau hala ke kai, mo inu, pea ke feʻaveʻaki ʻae ngaahi ʻinasi, pea ke fai ʻae fiefia lahi, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻenau ʻilo hono ʻuhinga ʻoe ngaahi lea naʻe fakapapau kiate kinautolu.
13 Nʼụbọchị nke abụọ nke ọnwa ahụ, ndịisi ezinaụlọ niile na ndị nchụaja, na ndị Livayị, zukọrọ nʼebe Ezra, bụ onye nkuzi nọ, maka itinye uche nʼakwụkwọ iwu ahụ.
Pea naʻe fakakātoa fakataha ʻi hono ua ʻoe ʻaho ʻae kau tuʻukimuʻa ʻi he mātuʻa ʻoe kakai, mo e kau taulaʻeiki, mo e kau Livai, kia Esela ko e tangata tohi, ʻio, ke nau ʻilo hono ʻuhinga ʻoe ngaahi lea ʻoe fono.
14 Mgbe ha na-agụ ya, ha chọpụtara ebe Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị ya na ụmụ Izrel kwesiri ibi nʼụlọ ikwu mgbe ọbụla a na-eme mmemme ụlọ ikwu nke a ga-eme nʼọnwa ahụ.
Pea naʻa nau ʻilo kuo tohi ʻi he fono ʻaia naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova ʻia Mōsese, ʻo pehē ʻe nofo ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he ngaahi fale fehikitaki ʻi he kātoanga ʻo hono fitu ʻoe māhina:
15 O kwukwara na ha ga-ekwusa okwu a nʼobodo niile nke Juda na Jerusalem sị; “Gaanụ nʼala ugwu ugwu gbute alaka osisi oliv ụlọ, na alaka oliv ọhịa, na alaka osisi mietul, na alaka nkwụ, na alaka osisi ndị ọzọ na-enye ndo nke a ga-eji wuo ebe unu ga-ebi tutu ruo mgbe mmemme ahụ ga-agwụsị, dịka e dere ya nʼakwụkwọ iwu.”
Pea ke nau fakahā mo fanongonongo ʻi heʻenau ngaahi kolo, pea ʻi Selūsalema, ʻo pehē, “Mou ʻalu atu ki he moʻunga, pea fetuku mei ai ʻae ngaahi ʻuluʻi ʻolive, mo e ʻuluʻi paini, mo e ngaahi maile, mo e ngaahi vaʻa ponga, mo e ngaahi vaʻa ʻakau matolutolu, ke ngaohiʻaki ʻae ngaahi falefehikitaki, ʻo hangē ko ia kuo tohi.”
16 Ya mere, ndị ahụ pụrụ gaa weta alaka osisi, jiri ha wuore onwe ha ụlọ ahịhịa ha ga-ebi nwa mgbe nta nʼelu ụlọ ha, na nʼogige ụlọ nke aka ha, nakwa nʼogige ụlọ Chineke, na mbara ala Ọnụ Ụzọ Ama Mmiri, na nʼakụkụ Ọnụ Ụzọ Ama Ifrem.
Ko ia naʻe ʻalu atu ai ʻae kakai, ʻo fetuku ia, pea naʻe ngaohi ʻaki ʻae ngaahi tuʻu fale, ʻo taki taha ki he tuʻa fale ʻo hono fale, pea ʻi honau ngaahi loto ʻā, pea mo e lotoʻā ʻoe fale ʻoe ʻOtua, pea ʻi he hala lahi ʻoe matapā vai, pea ʻi he hala lahi ʻoe matapā ʻo ʻIfalemi.
17 Ndị ahụ niile si na ndọta nʼagha lọta wuuru onwe ha ụlọ ikwu biri nʼime ya ụbọchị asaa ahụ niile e mere mmemme ahụ. Oke ọṅụ jupụtara obi mmadụ niile, nʼihi na site nʼoge Joshua nwa Nun ruo nʼoge a, o nwebeghị mgbe ụmụ Izrel mere mmemme a nʼụzọ dị otu a.
Pea ko e fakataha kotoa pē ʻokinautolu naʻe toe haʻu mei he pōpula, naʻa nau ngaohi honau ngaahi tuʻu fale, pea nofo ʻi he malu ʻoe ngaahi tuʻu fale: he ʻoku talu mei he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Siosiua ko e foha ʻo Nuni ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ko ia naʻe ʻikai fai pehē ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli. Pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae fiefia lahi ʻaupito.
18 Ezra na-agụpụta site nʼakwụkwọ iwu Chineke kwa ụbọchị, site nʼụbọchị mbụ ruo nʼụbọchị ikpeazụ. Ha mere mmemme ahụ ụbọchị asaa ma nʼụbọchị nke asatọ ha nwere ọgbakọ ofufe mmechi dịka e dere ya nʼiwu.
Pea naʻa ne lau ʻi he tohi ʻoe fono ʻoe ʻOtua ʻi he ʻaho hokohoko pe, mei he ʻuluaki ʻaho ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ki mui. Pea naʻa nau fai ʻae kātoanga ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu; pea ʻi hono valu ʻoe ʻaho naʻe ʻi ai ʻae fakakātoa molumalu, ʻo fakatatau mo hono anga.
