Nehemaia 2
1 Hanki Artserksisi'ma kinima manino egeno 20tima hia kafumofona Nisani ikampina, ko'ma nehuaza hu'na kini ne'mofo waini tina tagi'na eme ami'noe. Hianagi mago'a zupama nehuazana hu'na ana zupa musena osugeno navugosamo'a evurami'ne.
Now in the month of Nisan, in the twentieth year of King Artaxerxes, when wine was set before him, I took the wine and gave it to the king. I had never been sad in his presence,
2 Ana'ma higeno'a kini ne'mo'a nantahigeno, Kagra kria e'ori'nananagi na'a higeno kavugosamo'a evuneramigenka musena nosane? Mago'a zamo higeno krimpamo'a musena nosifi? Anagema hige'na nagra tusi koro nehu'na,
so the king said to me, “Why is your face sad, though you are not ill? This could only be sadness of the heart.” I was overwhelmed with fear
3 kini ne'mofo ke'arera amanage hu'na kenona'a hu'noe, kini ne'moka knare hunka za'zate kinia maninka vugahane. Nagrama musema nosuana na'ankure, nagehe'mokizmima asezamante'naza rankuma'mo'a tusi'a zampi havizantfa huno me'negeno, ana kuma'mofo kafana tevemo tefanane hu'negu anara nehue.
and replied to the king, “May the king live forever! Why should I not be sad when the city where my fathers are buried lies in ruins, and its gates have been destroyed by fire?”
4 Anagema hugeno'a kini nemo'a amanage huno nasami'ne, Na'a kagrira hugantesuegu kave'nesie, hige'na anante ame hu'na monafi Anumzamofontega nunamuna hu'noe.
“What is your request?” replied the king. So I prayed to the God of heaven
5 Nehu'na amanage hu'na kini ne'mofona antahige'noe, kagrama antahi musema hunantesnanke'na Juda mopare mopa agafa'nire vu'na ome kete'na, maka'zana ome eri so'e hanue.
and answered the king, “If it pleases the king, and if your servant has found favor in your sight, I ask that you send me to Judah, to the city where my fathers are buried, so that I may rebuild it.”
6 Hanki kini ne'mofo nenaro kuini a'mo'a kini nemofo tava'onte mani'negeno kini ne'mo'a nantahigeno, nama'a kna umanitenka etema esanana ina zupa egahane? Anage nehuno amne vugahane huno hu izo hige'na, etema esanua kna fatgogura asami'noe.
Then the king, with the queen seated beside him, asked me, “How long will your journey take, and when will you return?” So it pleased the king to send me, and I set a time.
7 Hagi anante mago'ene kini nera amanage hu'na antahige'noe, Kini ne'mokama antahi so'ema hunantesnunka, Yufretisi rantimofo kantu kazigama me'nea kumatmimpima kva hu'naza vahetega knare mago'a avona kre namisnanke'na, nevu'nama ana kumapi gavana vahetamina ana avona ome zamisanuge'za, nege'za mago'zana osu natresage'na Juda moparera vu'na uhanatigahue.
I also said to him, “If it pleases the king, may letters be given to me for the governors west of the Euphrates, so that they will grant me safe passage until I reach Judah.
8 Hanki kini ne'mofo zafa tanopare'ma kvama hu'nea ne' Asapuna, zafama naminige'nama ra mono no tvaonte'ma, sondia vahe'ma mani'nezama kvama hanaza nomofo kafama tro'ma hu zafaramine kuma keginare'ma eri'zama erisanuna zafane nagrama masesanua noma kisanuna zafaramima namisigura, mago avon krento hu'na antahige'noe. Hanki Ra Anumzamo'a nagrane mani'negu nazanoma kini ne'mofonku'ma antahigoa zana amne tro hunante'ne.
And may I have a letter to Asaph, keeper of the king’s forest, so that he will give me timber to make beams for the gates of the citadel to the temple, for the city wall, and for the house I will occupy.” And because the gracious hand of my God was upon me, the king granted my requests.
9 Hanki sondia vahete ugota hu'naza vahe'ene hosi afu'mofo agumpima mani'nezama ha'ma nehaza sondia vahera kini ne'mo'a mago'a huzmantege'za nagrane vu'naze. Ana higeta Yufretisi rantimofo kantu kazigama me'nea kumatmima kvama hu'naza vahera vu'na kini ne'mo'ma krenami'nea avona ome zami'noe.
Then I went to the governors west of the Euphrates and gave them the king’s letters. The king had also sent army officers and cavalry with me.
10 Hianagi Bet-Horoni kumateti kamani eri'zama eneria ne' Senbalati'ene, Amoni kumateti kamani eri'za eneria ne' Tobia'enema nagrama oanke'ma nentahikea zanarinpamo'a haviza hu'ne. Na'ankure zanagrama antahi'ana Israeli vahe zamaza hunaku neaze nehuke anara hu'na'e.
But when Sanballat the Horonite and Tobiah the Ammonite official heard about this, they were deeply disturbed that someone had come to seek the well-being of the Israelites.
11 Hanki Jerusalema uhanati'na 3'a zagegna umanite'na,
After I had arrived in Jerusalem and had been there three days,
12 kenagera otina osi'a venene zamavrogeta vu'none. Hianagi Jerusalemi kuma'mofonte'ma nazano tro hugahane huno'ma Anumzamo'ma nagu'afima ante'nea zana mago vahera osami'noe. Hanki nagrake tonki afu'mofo agumpina mani'na vu'noanki, mago'a vene'nea mopafi vu'naze.
I set out at night with a few men. I did not tell anyone what my God had laid on my heart to do for Jerusalem. The only animal with me was the one on which I was riding.
13 Hanki ana kenagera kuma keginamofona, Agupo Kafanema nehaza kafanteti atirami'na, Ra Osifave tinkerima nehazarega vute'na, Mikazama Harafi hu'zama ome netraza kafanema nehaza kafama me'nerega vu'noe. Hanki tonki afu'mofo agumpima mani'na nevu'na, Jerusalemi kuma'mofo have keginama ahefragu vazi'naza zantamine, kuma kafaramine tevemo'ma te havizama hu'nea zana keso'e hu'na vu'noe.
So I went out at night through the Valley Gate toward the Well of the Serpent and the Dung Gate, and I inspected the walls of Jerusalem that had been broken down and the gates that had been destroyed by fire.
14 Anantetira Kampu'i Tine nehaza kafante'ene, Kini Nemofo tirure nehaza tirute uhanati'noe. Hianagi ufre kafampina have keginama fragu'ma vazirami'nea havemo'a hihi huno mareri'negeno tonkimo'a ufregara osu'ne.
Then I went on to the Fountain Gate and the King’s Pool, but there was no room for the animal under me to get through;
15 Anama hige'na Kidroni agupofi enevu'na ran kuma kegina ke'na evute'na, masa osu nege'na ete rukrahe hu'na Agupo Kafanema nehaza kafanteti emareri'na ran kumapina ufre'noe.
so I went up the valley by night and inspected the wall. Then I headed back and reentered through the Valley Gate.
16 Hanki ana kenage'ma vanoma nehu'nama hu'noa zamofo nanekea, Jerusalemima mani'naza kva vahe'mo'za ontahi'naze. Na'ankure magore hu'na Jiu vahepi, pristi nagapi eri'za vahepi mago'a eri'zama zamazama hu'za erisaza vahe'enena ozamasami'noe.
The officials did not know where I had gone or what I was doing, for I had not yet told the Jews or priests or nobles or officials or any other workers.
17 Hianagi anante amanage hu'na zamasami'noe, Tagrama knazampima mani'nonana tamagra ko keta antahita hu'naze. Jerusalemi kuma'mo'ma havizantfa higeno, kumamofo rankafana tevemo teno eri haviza hu'ne. E'ina hu'negu enketa Jerusalemi kuma'mofo kegina ete eriso'e huta hamaneno. Hagi e'inama hanunke'za mago'enena tazeri tagazea osugahaze.
Then I said to them, “You see the trouble we are in. Jerusalem lies in ruins, and its gates have been burned down. Come, let us rebuild the wall of Jerusalem, so that we will no longer be a disgrace.”
18 Anage nehu'na Ra Anumzamo'ma azama anteno nazama hu'nea zamofo kea nezamasami'na, kini ne'mo'ma hu'nea nanekenena zamasami'noe. Anankema huge'za zamagra amanage hu'naze, Knarekita hago eri'zana agafa huta erisune, nehu'za, ana kere eri'zana agafa hu'za eri'naze.
I also told them about the gracious hand of my God upon me, and what the king had said to me. “Let us start rebuilding,” they replied, and they set their hands to this good work.
19 Hianagi Horoni kumateti ne' Sanbalati'ma, Amoniti ne' Tobiaki, Araputi ne' Gesemi'ma hu'za amana eri'zama eriku'ma huna nanekema nentahi'za, tusi tagiza nere'za zokago kea amanage hu'za hurante'naze, tamagra ama na'a hu'za nehaze? Tamagra kuma kegina ete azeri o'netitma, kini ne'mofona ha' hunte'za nehazo?
But when Sanballat the Horonite, Tobiah the Ammonite official, and Geshem the Arab heard about this, they mocked us and ridiculed us, saying, “What is this you are doing? Are you rebelling against the king?”
20 Hagi anante nagra amanage hu'na zamasami'noe, tagra monafi Anumzamofo eri'za vahe mani'nonankita ama ana eri'zana enerisanunkeno, taza huno tazeri so'ea hugahie. Hianagi ama Jerusalemi kumapina tamagrira tamagia omane'ne. Ana higeno tamagehe'zanena kora ama kumapinena zamagia omane'nea vahe mani'naze.
So I answered them and said, “The God of heaven is the One who will grant us success. We, His servants, will start rebuilding, but you have no portion, right, or claim in Jerusalem.”
