Nahimiyaa 7
1 Erga dallaan sun ijaaramee anis cufaawwan iddootti deebisee booddee karra eegdonni, faarfattoonnii fi Lewwonni ni ramadaman.
When the wall was finished and I had set up the doors in place, and the gatekeepers and singers and Levites had been appointed,
2 Anis Yerusaalem irratti Anaanii obboleessa koo fi Hanaaniyaa ajajaa masaraa mootummaa sana nan muude; Hanaaniyaan kun nama hunda caalaa amanamaa fi kan Waaqa sodaatu tureetii.
I gave my brother Hanani charge over Jerusalem, along with Hananiah who had oversight of the fortress, for he was a faithful man and feared God more than many.
3 Ani akkanan isaaniinan jedhe; “Karrawwan Yerusaalem hamma aduun hoʼitutti banamuu hin qaban. Yeroo karra eegdonni hojii irra jiranittis cufaawwan cufamanii danqaraan keessa haa loofamu. Akkasumas jiraattota Yerusaalem keessaa eegdota tokko tokko iddoo isaaniitti, kaan immoo mana isaanii biratti ramadaa.”
I said to them, “Do not open the gates of Jerusalem until the sun is hot. While the gatekeepers are on guard, you may shut the doors and bar them. Appoint guards from those who live in Jerusalem, some at the place of their guard station, and some in front of their own homes.”
4 Magaalattiin guddoo fi balʼoo turte; garuu saba muraasatu ishee keessa jiraata ture. Manneenis amma iyyuu deebifamanii hin ijaaramne.
Now the city was wide and large, but there were few people within it, and no houses had yet been rebuilt.
5 Waaqni koos akka isaan maatii maatiidhaan galmeeffamaniif akka ani namoota bebeekamoo, qondaaltotaa fi uummata walitti qabuuf garaa koo keessa kaaʼe. Anis galmee hidda dhalootaa kan warra jalqabatti deebiʼanii nan argadhe. Wanni barreeffamee ani achitti argadhe kanaa dha:
My God put into my heart to gather together the nobles, the officials, and the people to enroll them by their families. I found the book of the genealogy of those who returned at the first and found the following written in it.
6 Isaan kunneen namoota kutaa biyya sanaa warra boojuu Nebukadnezar mootichi Baabilon sun boojiʼee isaan geessee ture sanaa deebiʼanii dha; isaanis Yerusaalemii fi Yihuudaatti deebiʼanii tokkoon tokkoon isaanii magaalaa ofii isaaniitti galan;
“These are the people of the province who went up out of the captivity of those exiles whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon took into exile. They returned to Jerusalem and to Judah, each to his city.
