Nehemiah 4
1 Ke Sanballat el lohng lah kut mwet Jew mutawauk tari in sifil musai pot uh, el kasrkusrak ac mutawauk in sufan kut.
And it was just when he heard Sanballat that we [were] rebuilding the wall and it burned to him and he was angry greatly and he mocked the Jews.
2 El fahk ye mutun mwet lal ac un mwet mweun lun Samaria, “Mea mwet Jew afon inge oru uh? Ya elos nunku in sifil musai siti uh? Ya elos nunku mu ke sripen mwe kisa elos oru inge, ac ku in tari ke len sefanna? Ya elos ku in orek eot in musa ke yol in eot firirla ac mokutkuti?”
And he said - before brothers his and [the] army of Samaria and he said what? [are] the Jews feeble doing ¿ will they restore for themselves ¿ will they offer sacrifices ¿ will they finish in the day ¿ will they restore the stones from [the] heaps of debris and they [are] burned.
3 Tobiah el tu siskal na el fahk, “Pot fuka se elos ac ku in orala? Finne fox soko, el ac ku in rakinya!”
And Tobiah the Ammonite [was] beside him and he said also [that] which they [are] building if it will go up a fox and it will break down [the] wall of stones their.
4 Nga pre ac fahk, “O God, lohng kas in aksruksruk lalos kacsr inge. Lela angonkas lalos in folokyang nu faclos sifacna. Lela tuh ma lalos nukewa in pisreyukla, ac in utukla elos oana luman mwet kapir nu in sie mutunfacl ma elos mwetsac nu we.
Hear O God our for we are contempt and return reproach their to own head their and give them to plunder in a land of captivity.
5 Nikmet nunak munas ke ma koluk elos oru, ac nikmet mulkunla ma koluk lalos, ke sripen elos akkolukye kut su musa.”
And may not you cover over iniquity their and sin their from to before you may not it be wiped out for they have provoked to anger to before the builders.
6 Ouinge kut orekma na ke pot uh. Tia paht na sun tafu fulata, ke sripen mwet uh arulana insewowo in orekma.
And we rebuilt the wall and it was joined together all the wall to middle its and it belonged a heart to the people to work.
7 Sanballat, Tobiah, ac mwet Arabia, mwet Ammon, ac mwet Ashdod elos lohngak lah kilkilukyakna orekma lasr ke pot Jerusalem, ac acn ma soenna kupasreni ke pot ah fahsr in fonfonla, na elos kasrkusrakak.
And it was just when he heard Sanballat and Tobiah and the Arabs and the Ammonites and the Ashdodites that it had gone up [the] repair of [the] walls of Jerusalem that they had begun the broken down [parts] to be closed and it burned to them exceedingly.
8 Ouinge elos nukewa pwapa in tukeni tuku fusauk orekma uh, ac mweuni Jerusalem.
And they conspired all of them together to come to wage war against Jerusalem and to make for it confusion.
9 Tusruktu kut pre nu sin God lasr, ac filiya mwet in topangi mwet lokoalok ke len ac fong.
And we prayed to God our and we stationed a guard on them by day and night because of them.
10 Mwet Judah elos onkakin on in asor soko inge: “Kut munasla in us ma toasr, Ac puslana kutkut in utukla. Kut ac musai pot uh fuka?”
And it said Judah it has failed [the] strength of the burden-bearer[s] and the debris [is] much and we not we will be able to rebuild the wall.
11 Mwet lokoalok lasr nunku mu kut ac tia liyalos ku etu ma elos akoo nwe ke elos sun kut ac unikuti, in pwanang orekma lasr uh in tui.
And they said opponents our not they will know and not they will see until that we will come into [the] midst of them and we will kill them and we will put an end to the work.
12 Tusruktu pacl pus, mwet Jew su muta inmasrlon mwet lokoalok lasr, elos fahsr fahk nu sesr ma elos akoo in oru lain kut.
And it was just when they came the Jews who were dwelling beside them and they said to us ten times from all the places which you will turn to us.
13 Ouinge nga sang cutlass, osra, ac pisr nu sin mwet lasr, ac oakelosi in sou, tuh elos in tu sisken pot uh nu loac, ke acn nukewa ma patpat ac srakna pusisel.
And I stationed from [the] lower parts of the place from behind of the wall (in the open places *Q(K)*) and I stationed the people to clans with swords their spears their and bows their.
14 Nga akilen lah mwet uh fosrnga, ouinge nga fahk nu selos, ac nu sin mwet kol ac mwet pwapa, “Nik kowos sangeng sin mwet lokoalok lasr. Esam lupan fulat ac ku sakirik lun LEUM GOD, ac kowos in mweun ke mwet wiowos, tulik nutuwos, mutan kiowos, ac acn suwos.”
And I saw and I arose and I said to the nobles and to the officials and to [the] rest of the people may not you be afraid of them [the] Lord great and awesome remember and fight on brothers your sons your and daughters your wives your and houses your.
15 Mwet lokoalok lasr elos lohng lah kut etu tari pwapa lalos, ac elos akilen tuh God El sikulya lemlem lalos. Na kut nukewa folokla in sifil musai pot uh.
And it was just when they heard enemies our that it was known to us and he had frustrated God purpose their (and we returned *Q(k)*) all of us to the wall each one to work his.
16 In pacl sac me, tafu mwet luk uh orekma ke musa, ac tafu topangi mwet lokoalok. Elos nukum nuknuk in mweun ac sruokya osra, mwe loeyuk, ac pisr natulos. Ac mwet kolyasr elos arulana sang ku lalos in akpulaikye mwet
And it was - from the day that half of young men my [were] doing the work and half of them [were] holding and the spears the shields and the bows and the body armor and the commanders [were] behind all [the] house of Judah.
17 su musai pot uh. Finne elos su til kufwen mwe orekma, elos orekma ke la paolos ac ke lac po ngia elos sruok mwe anwuk natulos.
Who were rebuilding the wall and the [ones who] were carrying in burden [were] carrying [it] with [the] one hand his doing the work and one [hand] [was] holding the weapon.
18 Ac mwet musa nukewa elos sripisrya cutlass natulos ke pupalos. Mwet se ma ac sulkakin pacl in mweun ke pusren mwe ukuk el tu na siskuk.
And the builders each one sword his [were] girded on hips his and [were] building and the [one who] gave a blast on the ram's horn [was] beside me.
19 Nga fahk nu sin mwet uh ac mwet pwapa ac mwet kol lalos, “Ke sripen orekma uh arulana yohk, kut ac muta loes inmasrlosr sie sin sie fin pot uh.
And I said to the nobles and to the officials and to [the] rest of the people the work [is] much and extensive and we [are] separate on the wall distant each from brother his.
20 Kowos fin lohng pusren ukuk, aksaye fahsreni nu yuruk. God lasr uh ac fah mweun kacsr.”
In [the] place where you will hear [the] sound of the ram's horn there towards you will assemble to us God our he will fight for us.
21 Ouinge len nukewa, mutawauk ke kusrun len uh nwe ke itu uh takak ke fong, tafu sesr orekma ke pot uh, ac tafu tu sruok osra in mweun ac topang mwet lokoalok uh.
And we [were] doing the work and half of them [were] keeping hold on spears from when came up the dawn until came out the stars.
22 Ke pacl se inge, nga fahk nu sin mwet kol orekma uh lah elos, ac mwet kasru lalos nukewa, in mutana Jerusalem ke fong uh, tuh kut in ku in forfor taran siti uh ke fong, ac orekma ke len.
Also at the time that I said to the people each one and servant his let them spend [the] night in [the] midst of Jerusalem and they will be for us the night a guard and the day work.
23 Nga tiana sarukla nuknuk luk uh, finne ke fong, ac mwet wiyu su kulansupweyu ac karinginyu elos oru oapana. Ac kut nukewa sruok na mwe mweun natusr inpaosr.
And not I and brothers my and servants my and [the] men of the guard who [were] behind me not we [were] stripping off clothes our each one weapon his the water.
