Nehemaia 1
1 Hanki Hakalia nemofo Nehemaia'a amanage huno naneke'a krente'ne, Pesia kini ne' Artserksisi'ma kinima manino egeno 20tima hia kafufina, Kislevie nehaza ikampina nagra Nehemaia'na hankavenentake vihu me'nea ran kumapi Susa mani'noe.
The words of Nehemiah, the son of Hacaliah. And it happened that, in the month of Chislev, in the twentieth year, I was in the capital city of Susa.
2 Hanki ana zupa mago nenafu ne' Hanani'a mago'a venene'zagane Judatira nagritega azage'na, amanage hu'na zamantahige'noe, Jiu vahe'ma Babiloni kinafinti'ma atre'za vu'naza nagara knare huza mani'zageno, Jerusalemi kuma'mo'enena knare huno me'neo hu'na zamantahigoge'za,
And Hanani, one of my brothers, arrived, he and some men of Judah. And I questioned them about the Jews who had remained and were left behind from the captivity, and about Jerusalem.
3 zamagra amanage hu'za nasami'naze, Babiloni kinafinti'ma atre'zama vu'naza naga'mo'za tusi'a knafi nemanize. Ana nehazage'za tva'ozamire'ma nemaniza vahe'mo'zanena huhaviza huzmantazage'za zmagazegu hu'naze. Jerusalemi rankumamofo have kegina ahe fragu vazinetre'za, kuma kegina kafaramina teve tagintazageno te fanane hu'ne.
And they said to me: “Those who have remained and have been left behind from the captivity, there in the province, are in great affliction and in disgrace. And the wall of Jerusalem has been broken apart, and its gates have been burned with fire.”
4 Hagi anankema nentahi'na, mopare mani'na tusi zavi nete'na mago'a zage knafi ne'zana a'o hu'na mani'nena, monafi Anumzamofo avurera zavira netena nunamuna amanage hu'na hu'noe.
And when I had heard this manner of words, I sat down, and I wept and mourned for many days. I fasted and prayed before the face of the God of heaven.
5 Ra Anumzana monafi Anumzamoka hankavenentake hu'nenka marerigaterenana Anumza mani'nane. Ana hu'nenka iza'o kagri'ma kavesi neganteno kagri kasegema amage'ma nentea vahera, vagaore kavesizanu navesi zamantegahue hunka huhagerafi huvempa keka'a amage antenka zamavesi nezamantana Anumza mani'nane.
And I said: “I beg you, O Lord, God of heaven, strong, great, and terrible, who keeps covenant and mercy with those who love you and who keep your commandments:
6 Muse hugantoanki kavua antenka nenagenka, eri'za vahekamo'nama kagri kavure'ma Israeli vahekagu'ma, feru'ene kenage'enema nunamuma nehuana kagesa antenka antahinamio. Ana nehu'na Israeli vahe'motama kagri kavure'ma hu'nona kumiku'ene, nagra kumiku'ene, nenafa naga'mozama hu'naza kumikura kagri kavure huama nehue.
may your ears be attentive, and may your eyes be open, so that you may hear the prayer of your servant, which I am praying before you today, night and day, for the sons of Israel, your servants. And I am confessing the sins of the sons of Israel, which they have sinned against you. We have sinned, I and my father’s house.
7 Kagri kavurera kefo tavutva nehuta, havizantfa hu'none. Ana nehuta amage'ma anteho hunkama eri'za vaheka'a Mosesema ami'nana kasegene tra kekanena amagera onte'none.
We have been seduced by vanity. And we have not kept your commandments and ceremonies and judgments, which you have instructed to your servant Moses.
8 Hianagi muse hugantoanki eri'za vaheka'a Mosesema amanahu ke'ma hunte'nana kegu kagesa antahio. Tamagra Israeli vahe'motama Nagrite'ma mani fatgoma osutma tamefi'ma hunamisage'na, tamagrira tamazeri panani hanugetma kokankoka vahe moparega vuta eta huta umani emani hugahaze.
Remember the word which you commanded to your servant Moses, saying: ‘When you will have transgressed, I will disperse you among the nations.
9 Hianagi tamagrama Nagrite'ma eta kasegeni'ama amage'ma antesage'na, mopama omete emete hutegama kinama ome hu'nesaregatira tamavre'na Nagri nagima hentesga hugahazema hunama huhampri ante'noa kumate tamavre'na egahue hunka'ma hu'nana kegura kagesa antahio.
But if you will return to me, and keep my precepts, and do them, even if you will have been led away to the furthest reaches of the heavens, I will gather you from there, and I will lead you back to the place that I have chosen so that my name would dwell there.’
10 Hanki tagra Israeli vahera Kagri vahe mani'neta Kagri eri'za vahe mani'none. Kagra tusi'a hankaveka'areti'ene, hankavenentake kzanteti taguvazinka kinafinti tavre'nana vahe mani'none.
And these same are your servants and your people, whom you have redeemed by your great strength and by your powerful hand.
11 Ra Anumzamoka muse hugantoanki eri'za vahekamo'nama nunamuma huana kagesa antenka antahi nenaminka, mago'a eri'za vaheka'ama Kagri kagima ahentesgama nehaza eri'za vahe'kamozanema nehaza nunamune nentahinka, muse hugantoankinka menina eri'za vahekamo'na, waini tima tro'ma hu'nama nemua kini ne'mofona arimpa azeri otisankeno asunkura hunanteno, inazanku'ma hanua zana amne tro hanigeno knare'zantfa hino.
I beg you, O Lord, may your ear be attentive to the prayer of your servant, and to the prayer of your servants who are willing to fear your name. And so, guide your servant today, and grant to him mercy before this man.” For I was the cupbearer of the king.
