11 Tala maloba oyo batindelaki ye na mokanda: « Epai ya mokonzi Aritakizerisesi. Maloba kowuta na biso basali na yo, bato ya ngambo ya weste ya ebale Efrate.
This is the saumplere of the pistle, which thei senten to the kyng. `To Artaxerses, king, thi seruauntis, men `that ben biyende the flood, seyn helthe.
12 Tika ete mokonzi ayeba ete Bayuda oyo bawutaki epai na yo bakomi kati na biso, na Yelusalemi; bazali kotonga engumba ya batomboki mpe ya bato ya mobulu, bazali kotonga bamir mpe kobongisa lisusu miboko.
Be it knowun to the kyng, that the Jewis, that stieden fro thee, ben comun to vs `in to Jerusalem, the rebel and worste citee, which thei bilden, and thei maken the ground wallis therof, and arayen the wallis aboue.

Therfor we ben myndeful of the salt, which we eeten in the paleis, and for we holden it vnleueful to se the harmes of the kyng, therfor we han sent and teld to the kyng;
15 mpo ete baluka kati na babuku ya bakonzi oyo bazalaki liboso na yo mpo na kososola malamu. Okomona solo kati na babuku yango ete engumba oyo ezali engumba ya batomboki, etungisaka bakonzi mpe bituka. Mpe lisusu, wuta kala, ezali esika ya batomboki. Yango wana engumba oyo ebebisamaki.

16 Tozali koyebisa mokonzi ete soki batongi lisusu engumba oyo mpe babongisi bamir na yango, okotikala lisusu na eloko moko te na ngambo ya weste ya ebale Efrate. »
We tellen to the kyng, that if thilke citee be bildid, and the wallis therof be restorid, thou schalt not haue possessioun biyende the flood.
17 Mokonzi azongisaki eyano oyo: « Epai ya moyangeli Rewumi; Shimishayi, mokomi mikanda na ye, mpe baninga na bango mosusu ya mosala oyo bavandaka na Samari mpe kati na bituka nyonso na ngambo ya weste ya ebale Efrate: Napesi bino mbote.

19 Napesaki mitindo mpo ete baluka koyeba mpe kososola bosolo. Boye emonani solo ete, wuta na kala, engumba oyo etombokelaka kaka bakonzi mpe etindaka bato na botomboki mpe na mobulu.
and it was comaundid of me, and thei rekenyden, and thei foundun, that thilke citee rebellith of elde daies ayens kyngis, and dissenciouns and batels ben reisid therynne;
20 Na Yelusalemi, ezalaki na bakonzi ya nguya oyo bazalaki kokonza etuka mobimba ya ngambo ya weste ya ebale Efrate mpe epai ya banani bazalaki kofuta mpako ya mokonzi, mpako ya mabele mpe mpako ya nzela.
for whi `and ful stronge kyngis weren in Jerusalem, which also weren lordis of al the cuntrei which is biyende the flood; also thei token tribut, and tol, and rentis.
21 Boye, bopesa sik’oyo mitindo epai ya bato wana ete bakoba lisusu te kotonga mpo ete engumba wana etongama lisusu te kino tango ngai moko nakopesa mitindo.
Now therfor here ye the sentence, that ye forbede tho men, and that thilke citee be not bildid, til if perauenture it be comaundid of me.
22 Bosala keba ete bozwa likambo oyo na pete te. Mpo na nini kotika nzela ete mobulu oyo ekola mpe ekitisa bomengo ya mokonzi? »

23 Tango kaka batangaki mokanda ya mokonzi Aritakizerisesi liboso ya Rewumi; Shimishayi, mokomi mikanda na ye, mpe baninga na bango ya mosala bakendeki mbala moko na Yelusalemi epai ya Bayuda mpe bapekisaki bango na makasi ete bakoba lisusu te kotonga.
