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 son of Hakaliah: Now it happened in the month of Kislev, in the twentieth year, as I was in the fortress 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,
that one of my brothers, Hanani, came with some people from Judah, and I asked them about the Jews who had escaped, the remnant of the Jews who were there, 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.
They said to me, “Those in the province who survived the captivity are in great trouble and disgrace because the wall of Jerusalem has been broken open, and its gates have been set on 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.
As soon as I heard these words, I sat down and wept, and for days I continued grieving and fasting and praying before 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.
Then I said, “You are Yahweh, God of heaven, the God who is great and awesome, who keeps the covenant and steadfast love with those who love him and keep his 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.
Listen to my prayer and open your eyes, so you may hear the prayer of your servant that I now pray before you day and night for the people of Israel your servants. I am confessing the sins of the people of Israel, which we have sinned against you. Both I and my father's house have sinned.
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 acted very wickedly against you, and we have not kept the commandments, the statutes, and the rules you commanded 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.
Please call to mind the word you commanded your servant Moses, 'If you act unfaithfully, I will scatter 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 return to me and follow my commandments and do them, though your people were scattered under the farthest skies, I will gather them from there and bring them to that place where I have chosen to make my name remain.'
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.
Now they are your servants and your people, whom you have rescued by your great power and by your strong 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.
Yahweh, I beg you, listen now to the prayer of your servant and to the prayer of your servants who delight to honor your name. Now give success to your servant today, and grant him mercy in the sight of this man.” I served as cupbearer to the king.
