Nehemias 9

1 Ita, iti maikaduapulo ket uppat nga aldaw iti dayta met la a bulan, naguummong dagiti tattao ti Israel ket nagayunarda, nagisuotda iti nakersang a lupot, ken nangikabilda iti dapu kadagiti uloda.

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 Inlasin dagiti kaputotan ni Israel dagiti bagida manipud kadagiti amin a ganggannaet. Timmakderda sada impudno dagiti basolda ken dagiti dakes nga inar-aramid dagiti kapuonanda.

(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 Nagtakderda iti ayanda ket tallo nga orasda a nagbasa manipud iti Libro ti Linteg ni Yahweh a Diosda. Tallo nga orasda met a nagipudpudno kadagiti basolda ket nagrukrukbabda kenni Yahweh a Diosda.

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 Dagiti Levita a da Jesua, Bani, Kadmiel, Sebanias, Bunni, Serebias, Bani ken Kenani ket nagtakderda kadagiti agdan sada nagkararag iti napigsa kenni Yahweh a Diosda.

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 Ket kinuna dagiti Levita a da Jesua, Kadmiel, Bani, Hasabneyas, Serebias, Hodias, Sebanias ken Petahias, “Tumakderkayo ket idaydayawyo ni Yahweh a Diosyo iti agnanayon nga awan inggana.” Idayawda koma ti nadayag a naganmo, ken maitan-ok koma daytoy a nangatngato ngem iti tunggal bendision ken dayaw.

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 Sika ni Yahweh. Siksika laeng. Inaramidmo ti langit, dagiti kangangatoan a langit agraman ti amin a buyotda, ti daga ken amin a linaonna, dagiti baybay ken amin a linaonda. Sika ti nangted iti biag kadakuada amin, ket agdaydayaw kenka dagiti amin nga armada ti anghel.

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 Sika ni Yahweh, ti Dios a nangpili kenni Abram ken nangiruar kenkuana idiay Ur dagiti Caldeo ken nangpanagan kenkuana iti Abraham.

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

8 Nasarakam ti pusona a napudno iti sangoanam ket nakitulagka nga itedmo kadagiti kaputotanna ti daga dagiti Cananeo, dagiti Heteo, dagiti Amorreo, dagiti Perezeo, dagiti Jebuseo ken dagiti Gergeseo. Tinungpalmo ti karim gapu ta nalintegka.

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 Nakitam ti pannakaparigat dagiti ammami idiay Egipto ket nangngegmo ti asugda idi addada idiay baybay dagiti Runo.

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

10 Nangtedka kadagiti pagilasinan ken kadagiti datdatlag a maibusor kenni Faraon, kadagiti amin nga adipenna ken kadagiti amin a tattao iti dagana, ta ammom a nagtignay dagiti Egipcio a sipapalangguad kadagiti Israelita. Ngem nangipasdekka iti nagan nga agpaay kenka nga agtaltalinaed agingga iti daytoy nga aldaw.

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 Ket ginuduam ti baybay iti sangoananda tapno nakapagdaliasatda iti tengnga ti baybay iti namaga a daga; ken impurruakmo dagiti mangkamkamat kadakuada iti kaaddaleman, a kasla bato a naipurruak iti adalem a danum.

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 Indalanmo ida babaen iti kasla adigi nga ulep iti aldaw ken kasla adigi nga apuy iti rabii a manglawag iti dalanda tapno makapagdaliasatda babaen iti lawag daytoy.

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 Iti rabaw ti Bantay Sinai, bimmabaka manipud langit ket nakisaoka kadakuada ket intedmo kadakuada dagiti nalinteg a paglintegan ken dagiti pudno a linteg, dagiti naimbag nga alagaden ken dagiti bilin.

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 Impakaammom kadakuada ti intudingmo a nasantoan nga Aldaw a Panaginana, ken intedmo kadakuada dagiti bilin, alagaden ken linteg babaen kenni Moises nga adipenmo.

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

15 Intedmo kadakuada ti tinapay manipud langit para iti panagbisinda, ken danum manipud iti bato para iti pannakawawda, ket imbagam kadakuada a sumrekda ket tagikuaenda ti daga nga inkarim nga ited kadakuada.

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 Ngem isuda ken dagiti kapuonantayo ket awan panagraemda, nagsukirda ket saanda nga impangag dagiti bilinmo.

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

17 Saanda a dimngeg ken saanda a pinanpanunot ti maipapan kadagiti datdatlag nga inaramidmo kadakuada, ngem nagsukirda ketdi ket iti panagsukirda, nangdutokda iti mangidaulo kadakuada nga agsubli iti pannakatagabuda. Ngem sika ti Dios a mammakawan, managparabur ken manangngaasi, saan a nalaka nga agpungtot ken saan nga agpatingga ti panagayatmo. Saanmo ida binaybay-an.

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 Saanmo ida a binaybay-an uray idi nangsukogda iti sinan-urbon a baka a landok ket kinunada, 'Daytoy ti diosyo a nangiruar kadakayo iti Egipto,' kabayatan iti nakaro a panagtabtabbaawda.

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 O Dios, iti kinamanangngaasim, saanmo ida a binaybay-an idiay let-ang. Saan ida a pinanawan ti kasla adigi nga ulep a mangidalan kadakuada iti aldaw ken uray pay ti kasla adigi nga apuy iti rabii a nanglawag kadakuada iti dalan a pagnaanda.

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 Intedmo kadakuada ti naimbag nga Espiritum a mangisuro kadakuada, saanmo nga impaidam ti manam kadagiti ngiwatda ken inikkam ida ti danum para iti pannakawawda.

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 Iti uppat a pulo a tawen, impaaymo ti masapulda idiay let-ang, ket saanda a nagkurang iti aniaman. Saan a dimmaan dagiti pagan-anayda ken saan a limteg dagiti saksakada.

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

22 Inikkam ida kadagiti pagarian ken kadagiti tattao, ket insaadmo ida iti daga iti tunggal adayo a beddeng. Isu a tinagikuada ti daga ni Sihon nga ari ti Hesbon ken ti daga ni Og nga ari ti Basan.

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 Pinaadum dagiti annakda a kas kaadu dagiti bituen iti langit, ket impanmo ida iti daga. Imbagam kadagiti kapuonanda a sumrekda ket tagikuaenda daytoy.

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 Isu a simrek dagiti tattao ket tinagikuada ti daga, linakubmo iti sangoananda dagiti Cananeo nga agnanaed iti dayta a daga. Impaimam dagiti Cananeo kadagiti Israelita, agraman dagiti arida ken dagiti tattao iti dayta a daga, tapno mabalin nga aramiden ti Israel ti kayatda nga aramiden kadakuada.

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 Sinakupda dagiti nasarikedkedan a siudad ken ti nadam-eg a daga, ket sinakupda dagiti babbalay a napnoan kadagiti amin nga agkakaimbag a banbanag, dagiti bubon a nakalin, dagiti kaubasan, dagiti kaoliboan ken dagiti kayo nga agbunga iti nawadwad. Isu a nanganda, nabsogda, napnekda ken nagrag-oda iti dakkel a kinaimbagmo.

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 Kalpasanna, nagsukir ken nagrebeldeda kenka. Impalladawda ti lintegmo kadagiti likudda. Pinapatayda dagiti propetam a nangballaag kadakuada nga agsublida kenka, ken napalalo ti panagtabbaawda.

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 Isu nga impaimam ida kadagiti kabusorda, a nangparigat kadakuada. Ket iti tiempo ti panagsagabada, immasugda kenka ket impangagmo ida manipud langit ken namin-adum ida nga inispal iti ima dagiti kabusorda gapu iti dakkel a kaasim.

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 Ngem kalpasan a maka-inanada, nagaramidda manen iti dakes iti sagoanam ket binaybay-am ida iti ima dagiti kabusorda, isu nga inturayan ida dagiti kabusorda. Ngem idi nagsublida ket immasugda kenka, dinengngegmo ida manipud langit ket adu a daras nga inispalmo ida gapu iti kinamanangngaasim.

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 Binallaagam ida tapno agsublida manen iti lintegmo. Ngem nagbalinda a napalangguad ken saanda nga impangag dagiti bilinmo. Nagbasolda kadagiti paglintegam a mangted iti biag iti siasinoman nga agtultulnog kadagitoy. Saanda a nagtulnog kadagitoy ngem ketdi saanda nga impangag dagitoy, ket nagkedkedda uray laeng koma dumngeg kadagitoy.

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 Iti adu a tawtawen, inanusam ken binallaagam ida babaen iti Espiritum babaen kadagiti propetam. Ngem saanda latta a dimngeg. Isu nga impaimam ida kadagiti tattao iti aglawlawda.

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 Ngem iti naindaklan a kaasim, saanmo ida a ginibus wenno linaksid, ta managparabur ken manangngaasika a Dios.

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

32 Ita ngarud O Diosmi, ti natan-ok, ti mannakabalin, ken ti nakaskasdaaw a Dios, a mangsalsalimetmet iti tulag ken iti awan patinggana nga ayatna, saanmo koma a pagparangen a bassit laeng daytoy a pakarigatan nga immay kadakami, kadagiti arimi, kadagiti pangulomi, kadagiti padimi, kadagiti propetami, kadagiti kapuonanmi ken kadagiti amin a tattaom manipud pay iti tiempo dagiti ari ti Asiria agingga ita.

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 Nalintegka iti amin a banbanag nga immay kadakami, ta napudno ket nagtignaykami a sidadangkes.

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

34 Saan a sinalimetmetan dagiti arimi, dagiti panguloenmi, dagiti padi, ken dagiti kapuonanmi ti lintegmo, saanda pay nga impangag dagiti bilinmo wenno ti napudno a tulagmo nga isu ti nangballaagam kadakuada.

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 Uray iti bukodda a pagarian, kabayatan a ragragsakenda ti naindaklan a kinaimbagmo, iti nalawa ken nadam-eg a daga nga intedmo kadakuada, saanda a nagserbi kenka wenno saanda latta a tinallikudan dagiti dakes a wagasda.

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 Ita, tagabukamin iti daga nga intedmo a ragragsaken dagiti kapuonanmi, dagiti bunga ken dagiti naiimbag a sagsagut daytoy, ket adtoy, tagabukami!

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 Maited ti nawadwad nga apit iti dagami kadagiti ari nga insaadmo kadakami gapu kadagiti basolmi. Iturturayandakami ken dagiti tarakenmi a kas iti pagragsakanda. Napalalo ti pannakaparigatmi.

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 Gapu amin kadagitoy, mangaramidkami iti natibker a katulagan nga isuratmi. Nakasurat iti naselioan a kasuratan dagiti nagan dagiti prinsipe, dagiti Levita ken dagiti papadimi.”

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