1 Ke Sanballat el lohng lah kut mwet Jew mutawauk tari in sifil musai pot uh, el kasrkusrak ac mutawauk in sufan kut.
Kwasekusithi uSanibhalathi esezwile ukuthi siyawakha umduli, wathukuthela wacunuka kakhulu, wawahleka usulu amaJuda.
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?”
Wasekhuluma phambi kwabafowabo lebutho leSamariya wathi: La amaJuda abuthakathaka enzani? Azaziqinisa yini? Azahlaba yini? Azaqeda ngosuku yini? Azavuselela amatshe yini ezinqwabeni zengcekeza, ezitshileyo?
3 Tobiah el tu siskal na el fahk, “Pot fuka se elos ac ku in orala? Finne fox soko, el ac ku in rakinya!”
LoTobiya umAmoni wayelaye, wathi: Lalokho akwakhayo, uba ikhanka likhwela phezulu, lingawudiliza umduli wawo wamatshe.
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.
Zwana, Nkulunkulu wethu, ngoba siyeyiswa; ubuyisele ukukloloda kwabo ekhanda labo, ubanikele babe yimpango elizweni lokuthunjwa;
5 Nikmet nunak munas ke ma koluk elos oru, ac nikmet mulkunla ma koluk lalos, ke sripen elos akkolukye kut su musa.”
ungaligubuzeli icala labo, lesono sabo singacitshwa phambi kwakho, ngoba bathukuthelisile maqondana labakhi.
6 Ouinge kut orekma na ke pot uh. Tia paht na sun tafu fulata, ke sripen mwet uh arulana insewowo in orekma.
Sawakha-ke umduli, waze wahlangana wonke umduli kuze kube yingxenye yawo, ngoba abantu babelenhliziyo yokusebenza.
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.
Kodwa kwathi oSanibhalathi loTobiya lamaArabhiya lamaAmoni labeAshidodi sebezwile ukuthi ukulungiswa kwemiduli yeJerusalema kuyenyuka, ukuthi izikhala seziqala ukuvaleka, bathukuthela kakhulu.
8 Ouinge elos nukewa pwapa in tukeni tuku fusauk orekma uh, ac mweuni Jerusalem.
Basebesenza ugobe bonke ndawonye ukuthi beze balwe leJerusalema, lokuthi badunge phakathi kwayo.
9 Tusruktu kut pre nu sin God lasr, ac filiya mwet in topangi mwet lokoalok ke len ac fong.
Kodwa sakhuleka kuNkulunkulu wethu, sabeka abalindi ukumelana labo emini lebusuku, ngenxa yabo.
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?”
Kodwa uJuda wathi: Amandla abathwali bomthwalo adedile, lezibi zinengi, ngakho thina kasilakho ukwakha umduli.
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.
Lezitha zethu zathi: Kabayikwazi, kabayikubona, size singene phakathi kwabo sibabulale, siwumise umsebenzi.
12 Tusruktu pacl pus, mwet Jew su muta inmasrlon mwet lokoalok lasr, elos fahsr fahk nu sesr ma elos akoo in oru lain kut.

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.
Ngasengimisa endaweni eziphansi kakhulu ngemva komduli endaweni ezisobala, ngamisa abantu ngensapho belezinkemba zabo, imikhonto yabo, lamadandili abo.
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.”

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.
Ababesakha emdulini, lababethwala imithwalo, ababelayitshela, ngesinye sezandla zakhe wayesebenza emsebenzini, lesinye sibambelele isikhali.
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.

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.
Ngasengisithi kuzikhulu lakubabusi lakwabanye abantu: Umsebenzi mkhulu futhi ubanzi; lathi sehlukene phezu komduli, omunye ukhatshana lomunye.
20 Kowos fin lohng pusren ukuk, aksaye fahsreni nu yuruk. God lasr uh ac fah mweun kacsr.”
Endaweni elizakuzwa khona ukukhala kophondo, lizabuthana lapho kithi; uNkulunkulu wethu uzasilwela.
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.
