Nehemaia 13

1 Hanki ana zupa Mosese kasege avontafepinti ranke hu'za nehamparizage'za mika vahe'mo'za antahi'naze. Hagi ana avontafepina amanage huno krente'nege'za hampri'naze, Amoni vahe'mo'zane Moapu vahe'mo'za Anumzamofo vahe'ma atruma hanafina magore hu'za eofregahaze hu'ne.

On that day they read in the book of Moses in the hearing of the people; and it was found written in it that an Ammonite and a Moabite should not enter into the assembly of God forever,

2 Na'ankure zamagra Israeli nagara ne'zane tinena nozami'za, kazusi ke huzmantenogu Balamuna zago ami'naze. Hianagi tagri Anumzamo'a ana kazusi kea eri rukrahe huno asomu hurante'ne.

because they didn’t meet the children of Israel with bread and with water, but hired Balaam against them to curse them; however, our God turned the curse into a blessing.

3 Hagi Israeli vahe'ma Mosese kasegema hamprizage'zama nentahi'za, fegi'ati'ma zamagranema emani'naza vahera agafa hu'za huzmante'naze.

It came to pass, when they had heard the law, that they separated all the mixed multitude from Israel.

4 Hagi pristi ne' Eliasibi'a Tobiana naga'agino, kora Anumzamofo mono nompima fenozama nentaza nonte kva hino hu'za huhamparinte'naza nere.

Now before this, Eliashib the priest, who was appointed over the rooms of the house of our God, being allied to Tobiah,

5 Ana hu'neankino Eliasibi'a Tobiana huntegeno, Anumzamofo mono nompima ra zantema hunaragintene'za, witi ofama hu zantamine, mnanentake insensine mono nompima eri'zama eneriza zantaminema nente'za, kasegemo'ma huno Livae naga'ma zamihoma hu'nea zantamina, hozafi zama 10ni'a kevuma eritruma hu'nafintima mago kevuma zamiza zantamine, kasefa wainine, masavenema eri'za azage'za nente'za Livae nagamokizmine, zagamema hu vahe'ene, mono no kafante'ma kvama nehaza vahe'ene, pristi naga'mokizmi musezama ko'ma eme anteterema nehaza nona amigeno mani'ne.

had prepared for him a great room, where before they laid the meal offerings, the frankincense, the vessels, and the tithes of the grain, the new wine, and the oil, which were given by commandment to the Levites, the singers, and the gatekeepers; and the wave offerings for the priests.

6 Hagi ana zama fore'ma hia knafina nagra Nehemaia'na Jerusalemi kumapina omani'noanki, Pesia kini ne' Artaserksisi'ma kinima manino egeno 32ma hiankafure Artaserksisina ome kenaku Babiloni vu'noe. Hagi mago knama evutege'na, Kini ne'mo'ma natre'nige'na ete Jerusalemima esugu antahige'noe.

But in all this, I was not at Jerusalem; for in the thirty-second year of Artaxerxes king of Babylon I went to the king; and after some days I asked leave of the king,

7 Anama hute'na Jerusalemi oge'za nasamiza Eliasibi'a havi avu'avaza huno, Anumzamofo ra mono nompima hunaraginte'naza nona Tobia'na amigeno mani'ne hu'naze.

and I came to Jerusalem, and understood the evil that Eliashib had done for Tobiah, in preparing him a room in the courts of God’s house.

8 Hagi ana kema nentahugeno'a, tusi narimpahege'na, Tobia fenozana ana nompintira maka eri fegi atre'noe.

It grieved me severely. Therefore I threw all Tobiah’s household stuff out of the room.

9 Hagi anante vahe huzamantoge'za hunaraginte'naza nona Anumzamofo avure harafi hu'za eri agru hutazage'na, mono nompi zuomparamine ofama hu witine, mnanentake zantamina insensinena ete eri'na anampinka ome ante'noe.

Then I commanded, and they cleansed the rooms. I brought into them the vessels of God’s house, with the meal offerings and the frankincense again.

10 Hagi anahukna hu'na ke'na eri fore'ma huana, hozama vasagazafintira, Livae naga'mozama eri'ga ne'zana, eriza eme ozami'naze. E'ina hu'negu ana maka Livae naga'ene zagame'ma hu vahe'mo'za mono nompi eri'zazamia atre'za mopa zamirega ete vu'naze.

I perceived that the portions of the Levites had not been given them, so that the Levites and the singers, who did the work, had each fled to his field.

11 Hagi anante kva vahera amanage hu'na zamasami'noe. Na'ahigeta Ra Anumzamofo mono nona tamefira humi'naze. Anagema hute'na Livae vahetamine zavenama aheno zagamema hu vahera ke hutru hu'na, eri'za kankamu zamire zamazeri otitere hu'noe.

Then I contended with the rulers, and said, “Why is God’s house forsaken?” I gathered them together, and set them in their place.

12 Anante ana maka Juda witi zamifinti'ene, waini zamifinti'ene, masave zamifinti'ma, hamprizageno vuno 10nima hia kevua eri'za mono nompima fenozama nentafi eme ante'naze.

Then all Judah brought the tithe of the grain, the new wine, and the oil to the treasuries.

13 Hagi anante pristi ne' Selemianki avontafete'ma ugagota'ma hu'nea ne' Zadokunki Livae nagapinti ne' Pedaiama hu'na huhampari zamantoge'za, ana fenozama ante nona kegava hu'naze. Hagi zamazama huno kegavama hania nera, Matania negeho ne' Zakuri nemofo Hanani huhampri ante'noe. Na'ankure zamagra knare'za hu'za eri'zana eri'naza vaheki'za, kegava hu'neza zamafuhe'ina fatgo hu'za refko huzamisaze hu'na antahinezami'na huhampari zamante'noe.

I made treasurers over the treasuries, Shelemiah the priest, and Zadok the scribe, and of the Levites, Pedaiah: and next to them was Hanan the son of Zaccur, the son of Mattaniah; for they were counted faithful, and their business was to distribute to their brothers.

14 E'ina hu'negu Anumzanimoka ama ana eri'zama eri'noa zankura kagesa antahinamio. Ana nehunka Anumzanimoka mono nonte'ene, mono nompima eri'zama erisaza zama nagu'areti'ma hu'na erinte fatgoma hu'noa navu'navazana Anumzanimoka kagerakani onanto.

Remember me, my God, concerning this, and don’t wipe out my good deeds that I have done for the house of my God, and for its observances.

15 Hanki e'ina knafima zamagoana Juda vahe'mo'za Sabati mani fruhu knarera, waini zafa raga regatati hu'za tima'a eri'naze. Ana nehu'za donki afu'mofo agumpina witi kutamine wainine, grepine, fiki zafa raganena erinente'za mago'a nezantaminena, mani fru kna Sabati zupa Jerusalemi vu'za zagore ome atre'naze. Ana hu'negu ana Sabati knarera ne'zana zagorera otreho hu'na asevazi zamante'noe.

In those days I saw some men treading wine presses on the Sabbath in Judah, bringing in sheaves, and loading donkeys with wine, grapes, figs, and all kinds of burdens which they brought into Jerusalem on the Sabbath day; and I testified against them in the day in which they sold food.

16 Hanki Tairi vahe'ma Jerusalema nemaniza, nozameramine mago'a zantaminena, eri'za mani fruhu kna Sabati zupa Juda vahete zagore ome atre'naze.

Some men of Tyre also lived there, who brought in fish and all kinds of wares, and sold on the Sabbath to the children of Judah, and in Jerusalem.

17 Anama hazageno'a tusi narimpa hege'na, Juda vahe'mokizmi kva vahera amanage hu'na zamasami'noe, ama havi tamavu tamava'ma hazazamo'a Sabati mani fruhu kna erihaviza nehaze hu'na hu'noe.

Then I contended with the nobles of Judah, and said to them, “What evil thing is this that you do, and profane the Sabbath day?

18 Tamagrira tafahe'za amanahu zamavu zamava hazazamo higeno, tagri Anumzamo'a tagrite'ene ama rankuma'enena knazana tami'ne. Hanki menima Sabati mani fruhu knama eri pehanama hazazamo higeno Israeli vahe'mota Anumzamo'a tusi'a rimpa ahenerante.

Didn’t your fathers do this, and didn’t our God bring all this evil on us and on this city? Yet you bring more wrath on Israel by profaning the Sabbath.”

19 Hanki kinaga nesegeno Sabatima eofre'negeno, Jerusalemi kuma kafantamina ana maka eriginenkeno Sabatia evute'na erinagiho hu'na huzamante'noe. Hanki ana nehu'na, mago'a zama eri'za Sabati zupama efre zankura kafante'ma kegavama nehaza eri'za vaheni'a mago'a huzamantoge'za kuma kafaramintera kva hu'naze.

It came to pass that when the gates of Jerusalem began to be dark before the Sabbath, I commanded that the doors should be shut, and commanded that they should not be opened until after the Sabbath. I set some of my servants over the gates, so that no burden should be brought in on the Sabbath day.

20 Hagi zagore'ma nanazama eme netraza vahe'mo'za tareo mago kenage naza Jerusalemi rankumamofo kafantera megi'a emase'naze.

So the merchants and sellers of all kinds of wares camped outside of Jerusalem once or twice.

21 Hianagi ana vahe'ma nezamage'na amanage hu'na hankave kea hu'noe, na'ahigetma kuma keginamofo megi'a emase'naze. Hagi amanahu zama henka'anema hanazana, tamazeri'na kina huramantegahue. Hagi anankema hu'noreti'ma agafama hiana ana vahe'mo'za mago'ene e'za Sabati zupa nanazana zagorera eme otre'naze.

Then I testified against them, and said to them, “Why do you stay around the wall? If you do so again, I will lay hands on you.” From that time on, they didn’t come on the Sabbath.

22 Anante Sabati knagu'ma ruotage hu'ne hu'zama antahinagura, Livae nagara huzamante'na tamagra'a tamazeri agru huteta vuta kuma kegina kafantera kva hiho hu'na huzamante'noe. Hagi Anumzanimoka ama ana avu'ava zama tro'ma hu'noa zankura kagesa antahinamio, ana nehunka vagaore kavesi zanteti, zamavesi zamante vava hugahue hunkama hu'nana keka'a amage antenka kasunku hunanto.

I commanded the Levites that they should purify themselves, and that they should come and keep the gates, to sanctify the Sabbath day. Remember me for this also, my God, and spare me according to the greatness of your loving kindness.

23 Hagi ana knafima koana, mago'a Juda vene'ne naga'mo'za Astoti kumatetiki, Amoni kumatetiki, Moapu kumatetiki hu'za a'nea eri'naze.

In those days I also saw the Jews who had married women of Ashdod, of Ammon, and of Moab;

24 Hagi mago'a mofavre nagazamimo'za, Astoti vahe zamagerura antahi'neza zamagerura ru'naze. Ana nehazage'za mago'amo'za ruga'a vahe zamageru ru'naze. Hianagi Juda vahe zamagerura oru'naze.

and their children spoke half in the speech of Ashdod, and could not speak in the Jews’ language, but according to the language of each people.

25 Hagi ana vahera zamazeri koneri'na kazusi ke huzamante'noe. Mago'a nagara sefu nezami'na zamazokara eri varare'noe. Hagi Anumzamofo agifi huvempa kea amanage hiho hu'na huzmante'noe. Tamagra ne' mofavretamirera megi'ati a'nenea zamavare ozamigahaze. Ana zanke huta mofa'netamia zamatresage'za megi'a vene'nea e'origahaze.

I contended with them, cursed them, struck certain of them, plucked off their hair, and made them swear by God, “You shall not give your daughters to their sons, nor take their daughters for your sons, or for yourselves.

26 Hige'na amanage hu'na zamasami'noe, Solomoni'a Israeli kini ne' mani'neanagi agranena a'neneramima erino amanahu kumi'ma hu'neana ontahi'nazo? Ama mopafima me'nea kumatmimpina magore huno Solomonikna kini nera omani'ne. Agri Anumzamo'a avesinteno kinia azeri otigeno, ana maka Israeli mopa kegava hu'ne. Hianagi megi'ati'ma eri'nea a'nemo'za avre'za kumipina vu'naze.

Didn’t Solomon king of Israel sin by these things? Yet among many nations there was no king like him, and he was loved by his God, and God made him king over all Israel. Nevertheless foreign women caused even him to sin.

27 Hagi ana havi tamavu tamava zama tagrama amage'ma anteta, megi'ati a'nenema erisunana, tagra Ra Anumzamofonkea rutagreta, tusi'a kumi hugahune. Hagi tamagrama antahi'zana tagrikura ana hanaze hutma nentahizafi?

Shall we then listen to you to do all this great evil, to trespass against our God in marrying foreign women?”

28 Hagi pristi ne' Eliasibi nemofo Jehoiada ne'mofavre nagapinti mago'mo, Heroni kumateti ne' Sanbalati mofa ara erineanki'na, ana nera ahe'na rotago hugeno fre'ne.

One of the sons of Joiada, the son of Eliashib the high priest, was son-in-law to Sanballat the Horonite; therefore I chased him from me.

29 Ana hu'negu Anumzanimoka pristi vahe'mo'zama hu'naza havi zamavu zamava zankura kaganera okanino. Na'ankure zamagra pristi vahe'ene Livae naga'enema huhagerafi'nana kasegea runetagre'za zamagra'a zamazeri haviza hu'naze.

Remember them, my God, because they have defiled the priesthood and the covenant of the priesthood and of the Levites.

30 E'ina hu'negu megi'a zantamimo'ma zamazeri pehanama hu'neana zamazeri agru hu'noe. Ana hute'na Livae naga'ene pristi nagara eri'za zamire huhampari zamantetere hu'noe.

Thus I cleansed them from all foreigners and appointed duties for the priests and for the Levites, everyone in his work;

31 Nagra anazanke hu'na, mago mago zupama tevema hare'zama kresramnama vu itare'ma esnaza vahe'ene, ese ne'zama hozafinti'ma hamare'za eri'za esaza vahe'ene, ese zafa rgama tagisaza zama Ra Mono nompima eriza esaza vahe'enena huhampari zamante'noe. Ana maka zama hu'noa zanku antahi nenaminka Anumzanimoka nazeri so'e hunanto.

and for the wood offering, at appointed times, and for the first fruits. Remember me, my God, for good.
