नहेम्याह 12

1 शालतिएलका छोरा यरुबाबेल र येशूअसँग फर्केर आएका पुजारीहरू र लेवीहरू यिनै हुन्‌:

Now these are the priests and the Levites who went up with Zerubbabel, the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua: Seraiah, Jeremiah, Ezra,

2 सरायाह, यर्मिया, एज्रा, अमर्याह, मल्‍लूक, हत्तूश,

6 शमायाह, योयारीब, यदायाह,

Shemaiah, and Joiarib, Jedaiah,

7 सल्‍लू, अमोक, हिल्‍कियाह र यदायाह । येशूअको समयमा पुजारीका अगुवाहरू र तिनीहरूका सहयोगीहरू यिनै थिए ।

Sallu, Amok, Hilkiah, Jedaiah. These were the chiefs of the priests and of their brothers in the days of Jeshua.

8 लेवीहरू: येशूअ, बिन्‍नूई, कादमीएल, शरेबियाह, यहूदा र मत्तन्‍याह । मत्तन्‍याह आफ्‍ना सहयोगीहरूसँग धन्‍यवाद ज्ञापनका भजनहरूका जिम्‍मावाल थिए ।

And the Levites: Jeshua, Binnui, Kadmiel, Sherebiah, Judah, and Mattaniah, who was over the music-makers, he and his brothers.

9 तिनका सहयोगीहरू बक्‍बुक्‍याह र उन्‍नीचाहिँ सेवामा तिनीहरूका सामुन्‍ने उभिन्थे ।

And Bakbukiah and Unno, their brothers, were opposite them in their watches.

10 येशूअ योयाकीमका पिता थिए । योयाकीम एल्‍यासीबका पिता थिए । एल्‍यासीब योयादाका पिता थिए ।

And Jeshua was the father of Joiakim, and Joiakim was the father of Eliashib, and Eliashib was the father of Joiada,

11 योयादा जोनाथनका पिता थिए, र जोनाथन यद्दूअका पिता थिए ।

And Joiada was the father of Jonathan, and Jonathan was the father of Jaddua.

12 योयाकीमको समयमा यी पुजारीहरू आ-आफ्‍ना परिवारका मुखिया थिए: सरायाहका परिवारका मरायाह, यर्मियाका हनन्‍याह,

And in the days of Joiakim there were priests, heads of families: of Seraiah, Meraiah; of Jeremiah, Hananiah;

13 एज्राका मशुल्‍लाम, अमर्याहका येहोहानान,

Of Ezra, Meshullam; of Amariah, Jehohanan;

14 मल्‍लूकका जोनाथन, शकन्‍याहका योसेफ,

Of Malluchi, Jonathan; of Shebaniah, Joseph;

15 हारीमका अदना, मरेमोतका हल्‍कै ।

Of Harim, Adna; of Meraioth, Helkai;

16 इद्दोका जकरिया, गिन्‍नतोनका मशुल्‍लाम,

Of Iddo, Zechariah; of Ginnethon, Meshullam;

17 अबियाका जिक्री, मिन्‍यामीन र मोदाहाका पिल्‍तै,

Of Abijah, Zichri; of Miniamin, of Moadiah, Piltai;

18 बिल्‍गाका शम्‍मूअ, शमायाहका यहोनातान,

Of Bilgah, Shammua; of Shemaiah, Jehonathan;

And of Joiarib, Mattenai; of Jedaiah, Uzzi;

21 हिल्‍कियाहका हशब्‍याह, यदायाहका नतनेल ।

Of Hilkiah, Hashabiah; of Jedaiah, Nethanel.

22 एल्‍यासीब, योयादा, योहानान र यद्दूअका समयका लेवीहरूका परिवारहरू तथा पुजारीका मुखियाहरूका नाउँ फारसी राजा दाराको शासनकालमा लेखिएका थिए ।

The Levites in the days of Eliashib, Joiada, and Johanan, and Jaddua, were listed as heads of families; and the priests, when Darius the Persian was king.

23 लेवी परिवारका मुखियाहरूका नाउँचाहिँ एल्‍यासीबका छोरा योहानानको पालासम्‍मै इतिहासको पुस्‍तकमा लेखिएका थिए ।

The sons of Levi, heads of families, were recorded in the book of the histories, even till the days of Johanan, the son of Eliashib.

24 लेवीहरूका अगुवाहरू हशब्याह, शरेबियाह, कादमीएलका छोरा येशूअ र तिनीहरूका सहयोगीहरू, जो तिनीहरूका सामुन्‍ने खडा हुन्थे, र आ-आफ्नो पालोअनुसार परमेश्‍वरका जन दाऊदको आज्ञामुताबिक प्रशंसा गर्ने र धन्यवाद दिने गर्थे ।

And the chiefs of the Levites: Hashabiah, Sherebiah, and Jeshua, the son of Kadmiel, with their brothers opposite them, to give blessing and praise as ordered by David, the man of God, watch against watch.

25 मत्तन्‍याह, बक्‍बुक्‍याह, ओबदिया, मशुल्‍लाम, तल्‍मोन र अक्‍कूबचाहिँ मूल ढोकानेर भएका भण्‍डार-कोठाहरूमा रक्षा दिने द्वारपालहरू थिए ।

Mattaniah, and Bakbukiah, Obadiah, Meshullam, Talmon, Akkub, were door-keepers keeping the watch at the store-houses of the doors.

26 तिनीहरूले येशूअका छोरा, योसादाकका नाति योयाकीमको पालोमा अनि राज्यपाल नहेम्याह र पुजारीसाथै शास्‍त्री एज्राको पालोमा सेवा गरे ।

These were in the days of Joiakim, the son of Jeshua, the son of Jozadak, and in the days of Nehemiah the ruler and of Ezra the priest, the scribe.

27 यरूशलेमको पर्खालको अर्पणको बेलामा धन्यवाद ज्ञापन दिँदै अनि झ्याली, वीणा र सारङ्गी बजाउँदै आनन्दसाथ अर्पणको उत्सव मनाउन मानिसहरूले लेवीहरू जहाँसुकै बसेका भए तापनि तिनीहरूको खोजी गरे ।

And when the time came for the wall of Jerusalem to be made holy, they sent for the Levites out of all their places to come to Jerusalem, to keep the feast with joy, and with praise and melody, with brass and corded instruments of music.

28 यरूशलेम वरिपरिको जिल्ला र नतोपातीहरूका गाउँहरूबाट गायकहरू सँगै भेला भए ।

And the sons of the music-makers came together from the lowland round about Jerusalem and from the daughter-towns of the Netophathites,

29 तिनीहरू बेथ-गिलगाल, गेबा र अज्मावेतका क्षेत्रहरूबाट पनि आए किनकि गायकहरूले यरूशलेमको वरिपरि आफ्ना लागि गाउँहरू बनाएका थिए ।

And from Beth-gilgal and from the fields of Geba and Azmaveth: for the music-makers had made daughter-towns for themselves round about Jerusalem.

30 पुजारी र लेवीहरूले आ-आफूलाई शुद्ध पारे, अनि तिनीहरूले मानिसहरू, मूल ढोकाहरू र पर्खाललाई शुद्ध पारे ।

And the priests and the Levites made themselves clean; and they made the people clean, and the doorways and the wall.

31 तब मैले यहूदाका अगुवाहरूलाई पर्खालको माथि जान लगाएँ, र धन्यवाद दिन मैले दुईवटा ठुला-ठुला गायन-झुण्ड नियुक्त गरेँ । एउटा झुण्ड दाहिनेतिर पर्खालमा फोहोर ढोकामा गयो ।

Then I made the rulers of Judah come up on the wall, and I put in position two great bands of them who gave praise, walking in ordered lines; one went to the right on the wall, in the direction of the doorway where the waste was put;

32 होशयाह र यहूदाका आधा अगुवाहरूले तिनीहरूलाई पछ्याए,

And after them went Hoshaiah and half of the rulers of Judah,

33 अनि अजर्याह, एज्रा, मशुल्लाम,

And Azariah, Ezra, and Meshullam,

34 यहूदा, बेन्यामीन, शमायाह र यर्मिया तिनीहरूको पछि लागे ।

Judah and Benjamin and Shemaiah and Jeremiah,

35 साथै, तुरहीहरू बोकेर केही पुजाहारीहरूका छोराहरू र जकरिया, जो जोनाथनका छोरा, जो शमायाहका छोरा, जो मत्तन्‍याहका छोरा, जो मीकायाका छोरा, जो जक्‍कूरका छोरा, जो आसापका छोरा थिए, तिनीहरू पनि पछि लागे ।

And certain of the priests' sons with wind instruments; Zechariah, the son of Jonathan, the son of Shemaiah, the son of Mattaniah, the son of Micaiah, the son of Zaccur, the son of Asaph,

36 त्यहाँ जकरियाका नातेदारहरू अर्थात् शमायाह, अज्रेल, मिललै, गिललै, माऐ, नतनेल, यहूदा र हनानी पनि परमेश्‍वरका जन दाऊदका साङ्गीतिक साधनहरू बोकेर आएका थिए । शास्‍त्री एज्रा सबैभन्दा अगाडि थिए ।

And his brothers, Shemaiah, and Azarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethanel and Judah, Hanani, with the music-instruments of David, the man of God; and Ezra the scribe was at their head;

37 तिनीहरू फुहारा ढोकाबाट भएर दाऊदको सहरका सिँढीहरूबाट सिधै पर्खालमा उकालो चढ्ने बाटो भएर दाऊदको दरबार पार गरी पूर्वतिर अवस्थित पानी ढोकासम्मै गए ।

And by the doorway of the fountain and straight in front of them, they went up by the steps of the town of David, at the slope up of the wall, over the house of David, as far as the water-doorway to the east.

38 धन्यवाद दिनेहरूको अर्को गायन झुण्ड अर्को दिशामा गयो । मानिसहरूका आधा भागसँगै मैले तिनीहरूलाई पर्खालमा पछ्याएँ । यो झुण्ड भट्टिको बुर्जा भएर, चौडा पर्खालसम्म,

And the other band of those who gave praise went to the left, and I went after them with half the people, on the wall, over the tower of the ovens, as far as the wide wall;

39 र एफ्राइमको ढोका, येशना ढोका, माछा ढोका, हननेलको बुर्जा र सयको बुर्जादेखि भेडा ढोकासम्म गएपछि तिनीहरू गारदको ढोकामा अडिए ।

And over the doorway of Ephraim and by the old door and the fish door and the tower of Hananel and the tower of Hammeah, as far as the sheep door: and at the doorway of the watchmen they came to a stop.

40 यसरी धन्यवाद दिनेहरूका यी दुवै गायन-झुण्ड परमेश्‍वरको मन्दिरमा आ-आफ्नो स्थानमा बसे, र म पनि अधिकारीहरूको आधा भागसँगै आफ्नो स्थानमा बसेँ ।

So the two bands of those who gave praise took up their positions in the house of God, and I and half of the chiefs with me:

41 त्यसपछि पुजारीहरू एल्‍याकीम, मासेयाह, मिन्‍यामीन, मीकाया, एल्‍योएनै, जकरिया र हनन्‍याह तुरहीहरू बोकेर आ-आफ्नो स्थानमा बसे ।

And the priests; Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Micaiah, Elioenai, Zechariah, and Hananiah, with wind instruments;

42 साथै, मासेयाह, शमायाह, एलाजार, उज्‍जी, येहोहानान, मल्‍कियाह, एलाम र एसेर पनि त्यहाँ थिए । गायकहरूले तिनीहरूका अगुवा यिज्रहियाहको निर्देशनमा गाए ।

And Maaseiah and Shemaiah and Eleazar and Uzzi and Jehohanan and Malchijah and Elam and Ezer. And the makers of melody made their voices loud, with Jezrahiah their overseer.

43 त्यस दिन तिनीहरूले ठुला-ठुला बलिदानहरू चढाए, र आनन्द मनाए, किनकि परमेश्‍वरले तिनीहरूलाई बडो आनन्द मनाउन दिनुभएको थियो । स्‍त्रीहरू र बालबालिकाहरूले पनि आनन्द मनाए । यसरी यरूशलेमको आनन्द टाढा-टाढासम्म सुन्‍न सकिन्थ्यो ।

And on that day they made great offerings and were glad; for God had made them glad with great joy; and the women and the children were glad with them: so that the joy of Jerusalem came to the ears of those who were far off.

44 त्यस दिन भेटीहरू, अगौटे फलहरू र दशांशहरूका निम्ति भण्डार-कोठाहरूको जिम्मा लिन अनि लेवीहरू र पुजारीहरूका निम्ति व्यवस्थाले तोकेबमोजिम हिस्सा जम्मा गर्न मानिसहरू नियुक्त गरिए । सहरका नजिकका बस्तीहरूबाट काम गर्न हरेकलाई जिम्मा दिइएको थियो । किनकि यहूदा पुजारीहरू र लेवीहरूबाट प्रसन्‍न भए जो तिनीहरूका सामु खडा थिए ।

And on that day certain men were put over the rooms where the things which had been given were stored, for the lifted offerings and the first-fruits and the tenths, and to take into them the amounts, from the fields of every town, fixed by the law for the priests and the Levites: for Judah was glad on account of the priests and the Levites who were in their places.

45 दाऊद र तिनका छोरा सोलोमनको आज्ञामुताबिक तिनीहरूले आफ्ना परमेश्‍वरको सेवा र शुद्धिको सेवा गरे, अनि गायकहरू र द्वारपालहरूले पनि त्यसै गरे ।

And they kept the watch of their God, and were responsible for making things clean, and so did the music-makers and the door-keepers, as it was ordered by David and Solomon his son.

46 किनकि धेरै पहिले दाऊद र आसापको समयमा गायकहरूका निर्देशकहरू थिए, र त्यहाँ परमेश्‍वरको निम्ति प्रशंसासाथै धन्यवाद ज्ञापन हुन्थ्यो ।

For in the days of David and Asaph in the past, there was a master of the music, and songs of blessing and praise to God.

47 यरुबाबेल र नहेम्याहको समयमा सारा इस्राएलले गायकहरू र द्वारपालहरूका लागि दैनिक हिस्सा दिन्थे । तिनीहरूले लेवीहरूका निम्ति भाग छुट्ट्याउँथे, र लेवीहरूले हारूनका सन्तानहरूका निम्ति भाग छुट्ट्याउँथे ।

And all Israel in the days of Zerubbabel and in the days of Nehemiah gave what was needed by the music-makers and the door-keepers day by day: and they made the offerings holy for the Levites; and the Levites did the same for the sons of Aaron.
