26 Bawenza umsebenzi lo ngezinsuku zikaJoyakhimu indodana kaJeshuwa, indodana kaJozadaki, langezinsuku zikaNehemiya umbusi lo-Ezra umphristi lombhali.
Na eyinom nyinaa som wɔ Yesua babarima Yoiakim a ɔyɛ Yosadak nena ne Nehemia a ɔyɛ amrado ne Ɛsra a na ɔyɛ ɔsɔfo ne mmara no kyerɛkyerɛfo bere so.
27 Ekunikelweni komduli waseJerusalema, abaLevi badingwa lapho ababehlala khona balethwa eJerusalema ukuzathakazelela umkhosi wokunikelwa ngezingoma langokubonga langokutshaya izigubhu lamachacho lemiqangala.
Bere a wɔredwira Yerusalem fasu foforo no, wɔka kyerɛɛ Lewifo a wɔwɔ asase no so nyinaa se, wɔmmra Yerusalem mmɛboa dwumadi no. Na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde kyɛnkyɛn, mmɛnta ne asankuten to wɔn aseda nnwom de hyɛ anigye fa no.
28 Abahlabeleli labo balethwa ndawonye besuka emangweni oseduze leJerusalema, basuka emizini yamaNethofa,
Wɔde nnwontofo no fi Yerusalem ne ne nkuraa ne Netofafo nkuraa nyinaa bɔɔ mu bae.
29 eBhethi Giligali, lasemangweni waseGebha le-Azimavethi, ngoba abahlabeleli basebezakhele imizi eduze leJerusalema.
Ebi nso fi Bet-Gilgal ne Geba pɔw mu hɔ ne Asmawet, efisɛ na nnwontofo no ara akyekyere wɔn ankasa nkuraa afa Yerusalem ho ahyia.
30 Kwathi lapho abaphristi labaLevi sebezihlambulule ngokomkhuba, bahlambulula abantu, amasango lomduli.
Asɔfo no ne Lewifo no dwiraa wɔn ho, afei wodwiraa ɔmanfo no, dwiraa apon no ne fasu no nso.
31 Ngathi abakhokheli bakoJuda bakhwele phezu komduli. Njalo ngamisa amaqembu amakhulu amabili awabahlabeleli ukuthi babonge. Elinye lalimele likhwele phezulu komduli kwesokunene, kusiya ngesangweni loBulongwe.
Midii Yuda ntuanofo no anim kɔɔ ɔfasu no atifi, na meboaboaa nnwontofo akuw akɛse abien ano ma wɔbɛdaa ase. Nnwontofo kuw no mu baako kɔɔ anafo wɔ ɔfasu no atifi kosii Sumina Pon no.
32 UHoshayiya lengxenye yabakhokheli bakoJuda babalandela,
Hosaia ne Yuda ntuanofo no mu fa dii wɔn akyi,
33 kunye lo-Azariya, lo-Ezra, loMeshulami,
na Asaria, Ɛsra, Mesulam,
34 loJuda, loBhenjamini, loShemaya, loJeremiya,
Yuda, Benyamin, Semaia, Yeremia
35 kanye labanye abaphristi ababelamacilongo, loZakhariya indodana kaJonathani, indodana kaShemaya, indodana kaMathaniya indodana kaMikhaya, indodana kaZakhuri, indodana ka-Asafi,
ne asɔfo no bi a wɔhyɛn torobɛnto no dii wɔn akyi. Ɛno akyi na Yonatan babarima Sakaria, Semaia babarima, Matania babarima, Mikaia babarima, Sakur babarima a ɔyɛ Asaf aseni no di.
36 labakhula bakhe oShemaya, lo-Azareli, loMilalayi, loGilalayi, loMayi, loNethaneli, loJuda loHanani bephethe amachacho njengokwakumiswe nguDavida umuntu kaNkulunkulu. U-Ezra umbhali nguye owayekhokhele udwendwe.
Ne korakora no, Sakaria mfɛfo a wɔne Semaia, Asarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Netanel, Yuda ne Hanani dii wɔn so. Wɔfaa nnwontode a Dawid a ɔyɛ Onyankopɔn nipa akyerɛ sɛ wɔmfa no. Na Ɛsra a ɔyɛ mmara no kyerɛkyerɛfo no na odii santen no anim.
37 SebeseSangweni loMthombo baqhubeka bakhwela izinyathelo eziya eMzini kaDavida emqansweni oya emdulini bedlula ngaphezulu kwendlu kaDavida baya eSangweni laManzi ngempumalanga.
Wɔfaa Asu Aniwa Pon no ho, kɔɔ tee kɔforoo kuropɔn no fasu antweri a ɛkyerɛ Dawid kuropɔn no. Wɔfaa Dawid fi ho, kosii Nsu Pon a ɛwɔ apuei fam no ho.
38 Iqembu lesibili labahlabeleli lona lafulathela elakuqala laya le. Ngabalandela phezu komduli ngilengxenye yabantu, sedlula uMphotshongo waMaziko siqonda uMduli Obanzi,
Nnwontofo a wɔto so abien no faa atifi kwan kohyiaa wɔn. Me ne ɔmanfo no mu fa dii wɔn akyi. Yɛfaa ɔfasu no so nam Fononoo Abantenten no ho kosii Ɔfasu Tɛtrɛɛ no,
39 sedlula isango lika-Efrayimi, leSango likaJeshana, iSango leNhlanzi, uMphotshongo kaHananeli loMphotshongo weKhulu saze sayafika eSangweni leZimvu. ESangweni laBalindi bafika bema.
afei yetwaa Efraim Pon no ho, kosii Kuropɔn Dedaw Pon no, yɛfaa Mpataa Pon no ho, kosii Hananel Abantenten ho kɔɔ Ɔha Abantenten no ho. Yɛtoaa so kɔɔ Nguan Pon no ho, na yekogyinaa Ɔwɛn Pon no ano.
40 Amaqembu lawo abahlabeleli amabili ayesipha ukubonga asesima ezindaweni zawo endlini kaNkulunkulu; lami ngenze njalo, kanye lengxenye yezinduna,
Nnwontokuw abien a na wɔreda ase no kɔɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu kɔtenatenaa ase. Me nso me ne akuw ntuanofo a na wɔka me ho no yɛɛ saa ara.
41 labaphristi o-Eliyakhimu, loMaseya, loMiniyamini, loMikhaya, lo-Eliyonayi, loZakhariya loHananiya belamacilongo abo
Yɛne asɔfo a na wɔhyɛn torobɛnto a wɔne Eliakim, Maaseia, Miniamin, Mikaia, Elioenai, Sakaria, Hanania
42 njalo loMaseya, loShemaya, lo-Eliyezari, lo-Uzi, loJehohanani, loMalikhija, lo-Elamu lo-Ezeri. Amaqembu abahlabeleli ahlabela ekhokhelwa nguJezirahiya.
ne nnwontofo Maaseia, Semaia, Eleasar, Usi, Yehohanan, Malkia, Elam ne Eser na yɛbɔɔ mu kɔe. Wɔtoo nnwom a na dwonkyerɛfo Yisrahia rema wɔn akwankyerɛ.
43 Ngalelolanga banikela imihlatshelo emangalisayo, bethokoza ngoba uThixo wayebaphe ukuthokoza okukhulu. Abesifazane kanye labantwana labo bathokoza. Umsindo wokuthokoza eJerusalema wawuzwakala kude.
Saa anigye da no, wɔbɔɔ afɔre bebree, efisɛ na Onyankopɔn ayɛ biribi ama wɔn a enti ɛsɛ sɛ wɔma wɔn ani gye. Mmea ne mmofra nyinaa de wɔn ho hyɛɛ afahyɛ no mu, na ɔmanfo a wɔwɔ Yerusalem no osebɔ no duu akyirikyiri.
44 Ngalesosikhathi kwakhethwa amadoda ukugcina iziphala zalokho okwakulethwa, izithelo zokuqala kanye lokwetshumi. Okusuka emasimini aseduzane lamadolobho babemele bakulethe eziphaleni lezo zilinganiso ezazivumelwa nguMthetho okwabaphristi labaLevi, ngoba uJuda wayejabuliswe ngumsebenzi owawuqhutshwa ngamaphristi lamaLevi.
Da no, woyii mmarima sɛ wɔnhwɛ adekoradan a wɔde akyɛde, otwakan ne ntotoso du du gu mu no so. Na ɛyɛ wɔn asɛde sɛ wokogyigye fi mfuw mu, sɛnea asɔfo ne Lewifo mmara kyerɛ no, efisɛ na asɔfo ne Lewifo ne wɔn dwumadi no ho hia Yudafo nyinaa yiye.
45 Bayiphatha inkonzo kaNkulunkulu wabo lenkonzo yokuhlanjululwa, njalo benzenjalo labahlabeleli kanye labalindimasango, njengemilayo kaDavida lendodana yakhe uSolomoni.
Wɔyɛɛ wɔn Nyankopɔn som no ne ahodwira som no pɛpɛɛpɛ, sɛnea Dawid ne ne babarima Salomo mmara kyerɛ no, na saa ara nso na nnwontofo no ne aponanohwɛfo no yɛe.
46 Ngoba kudala, ensukwini zikaDavida lo-Asafi, kwakulabaqondisi babahlabeleli labezingoma zokudumisa lokubonga uNkulunkulu.
Amanne a wɔma nnwontofo akwankyerɛfo di nnwontofo no anim wɔ nkamfo ne aseda nnwom a wɔto de ma Onyankopɔn no fii ase fi Dawid ne Asaf bere so.
47 Yikho ngezinsuku zikaZerubhabheli loNehemiya, ama-Israyeli onke apha isabelo sansukuzonke esabahlabeleli labalindimasango. Baphinda njalo babeka eceleni esinye isabelo esabanye abaLevi, kwathi abaLevi labo bacezula okunye kwabo kwaba ngokwabosendo luka-Aroni.
Enti efi Serubabel ne Nehemia bere so no, na daa ɔmanfo brɛ nnwontofo no ne aponanohwɛfo ne Lewifo no nnuan. Na Lewifo no nso de nea wonya no mu bi ma asɔfo a wɔyɛ Aaron asefo no.
