Nexemyaah 5
1 Markaasaa waxaa dadkii iyo afooyinkooda ka kacay qaylo weyn oo ay kaga cabanayeen walaalahooda Yuhuudda ah.
And there was a great cry of the people and of their wives against their brethren the Jews.
2 Oo waxaa jiray dad yidhi, Annaga iyo wiilashayada iyo gabdhahayagu waannu badan nahay, haddaba aan hadhuudh helno si aannu u cunno oo ugu noolaanno.
And there were that said, We, our sons and our daughters, are many, and we must procure corn that we may eat and live.
3 Oo weliba waxaa kaloo jiray qaar yidhi, Annagu waxaannu rahaamad u dhiibaynaa beerahayaga iyo beerahayaga canabka ah iyo guryahayaga, si aannu u helno hadhuudh abaarta aawadeed.
And there were that said, We have had to pledge our fields, and our vineyards, and our houses, that we might procure corn in the dearth.
4 Oo waxaa kaloo jiray kuwo yidhi, Gabbaradii uu boqorku ka doonayay beerahayagii iyo beerahayagii canabka ahaa ayaannu lacag u amaahannay.
And there were that said, We have borrowed money for the king's tribute upon our fields and vineyards;
5 Haddaba jiidhkayagu waa sida jiidhka walaalahayo, oo carruurtayaduna waa sida carruurtooda oo kale, oo bal eeg, wiilashayadii iyo gabdhahayagii ayaannu u bixinaynaa inay addoommo noqdaan, oo gabdhahayagii qaarkood mar horaa la addoonsaday; oo annana ma lihin itaal aan wax kaga tarno, waayo, dad kalaa wada haysta beerahayagii iyo beerahayagii canabka ahaa oo dhan.
yet now our flesh is as the flesh of our brethren, our children as their children; and behold, we must bring into bondage our sons and our daughters to be servants, and some of our daughters are brought into bondage [already]; neither is it in the power of our hand [to redeem them], for other men have our fields and our vineyards.
6 Oo anna aad baan u cadhooday markii aan maqlay qayladoodii iyo erayadan.
And I was very angry when I heard their cry and these words.
7 Markaasaan isla arrinsaday, waanan la diriray kuwii gobta ahaa iyo taliyayaashii, oo waxaan ku idhi, Idinka mid waluba wuxuu walaalkiis ka qaataa korsocod. Oo anigu waxaan qabtay shir weyn oo iyaga ka gees ah.
And I consulted with myself; and I remonstrated with the nobles and the rulers, and said to them, Ye exact usury, every one of his brother! And I set a great assembly against them.
8 Oo waxaan ku idhi, Innagu walaalaheennii Yuhuudda ahaa oo quruumaha laga iibiyey, waan soo furannay intii aan awoodnay oo dhan, haddaba idinku ma waxaad doonaysaan inaad walaalihiin iibisaan? Oo ma annagaa nalaga iibinayaa? Markaasay shib iska yidhaahdeen oo eray ay ku hadlaan way garan waayeen.
And I said to them, We, according to our ability, have redeemed our brethren the Jews, who were sold to the nations; and will ye even sell your brethren? or shall they be sold unto us? And they were silent and found no answer.
9 Oo weliba waxaan idhi, War waxaad samaysaan ma wanaagsana. Sow waajib idinkuma aha inaad ku socotaan ka cabsashada Ilaaheenna cayda quruumaha cadaawayaasheenna ah aawadeed?
And I said, The thing that ye do is not good. Ought ye not to walk in the fear of our God, so as not to be the reproach of the nations our enemies?
10 Oo sidaasoo kale aniga iyo walaalahay iyo midiidinnadayda lacag iyo hadhuudh baan korsocod ku amaahinnaa. Waan idin baryayaaye aan iska dayno korsocodkan.
I also, my brethren and my servants, we might exact usury of them, money and corn. I pray you, let us leave off this usury.
11 Haddaba waxaan idinka baryayaa inaad maantadan u celisaan beerahoodii, iyo beerahoodii canabka ahaa, iyo beerahoodii saytuunka ahaa, iyo guryahoodii, oo lacagtii, iyo hadhuudhkii, iyo khamrigii, iyo saliiddii aad korsocodka uga qaadateenna boqolkii meelood meel u celiya.
Restore, I pray you, to them this very day their fields, their vineyards, their olive-gardens, and their houses, also the hundredth [part] of the money, and of the corn, the wine and the oil, that ye have exacted of them.
12 Markaasay yidhaahdeen, Waxoodii waan u celinaynaa, oo wax dambena weyddiisan mayno innaba. Waxaannu yeelaynaa sidaad tidhaahdo. Markaasaan u yeedhay wadaaddadii, oo waxaan ku dhaariyey inay ballankan siduu yahay oofiyaan.
And they said, We will restore [them], and will require nothing of them; so will we do, as thou hast said. And I called the priests, and took an oath of them, that they should do according to this promise.
13 Markaasaan maradii dhabtayda hurgufay oo waxaan idhi, Ilaahay sidaas ha uga hurgufo gurigiisa iyo hawshiisa nin alla ninkii aan oofin ballankan; sidaas oo kale isaga ha loo hurgufo oo ha loo madhiyo. Markaasaa ururkii oo dhammu waxay yidhaahdeen, Aamiin, Rabbigana way ammaaneen. Oo dadkiina way sameeyeen sidii ballankaasu ahaa.
Also I shook my lap, and said, So God shake out every man from his house and from his earnings, that performeth not this promise: even thus be he shaken out and emptied! And all the congregation said, Amen! And they praised Jehovah. And the people did according to this promise.
14 Oo weliba tan iyo waagii la ii doortay inaan taliye u ahaado dalka Yahuudah waagaasoo ahaa boqorkii Artaxshasta sannaddiisii labaatanaad ilaa tan iyo sannaddiisii laba iyo soddonaad inta u dhex leh intaasoo ahayd laba iyo toban sannadood, aniga iyo walaalahay midna ma cunin cuntadii taliyaha.
Moreover from the time that I was appointed to be their governor in the land of Judah, from the twentieth year even to the thirty-second year of Artaxerxes the king, twelve years, I and my brethren have not eaten the bread of the governor.
15 Laakiinse taliyayaashii hore oo iga sii horreeyey dadka culays bay ku hayeen, oo waxay ka qaadan jireen cunto iyo khamri iyo weliba afartan sheqel oo lacag ah, oo xataa midiidinnadoodu dadka way xukumi jireen. Laakiinse anigu saas ma aan yeelin, maxaa yeelay, waxaan ka cabsadaa Ilaah.
But the former governors that were before me had been chargeable to the people, and had taken of them bread and wine, besides forty shekels of silver: even their servants bore rule over the people. But I did not so, because of the fear of God.
16 Oo weliba waxaan hore u sii waday shuqulkii derbigan, oo annagu waxba dhul ma aannu iibsan. Oo midiidinnadaydii oo dhammuna halkaasay shuqulka aawadiis ku soo wada urureen.
Yea, also I applied myself to this work of the wall, and we bought no fields; and all my servants were gathered thither for the work.
17 Oo weliba waxaa miiskayga wax ka cuni jiray boqol iyo konton nin oo ah Yuhuud iyo taliyayaal oo ayan ku jirin kuwii nooga yimid quruumihii hareerahayaga ku wareegsanaa.
And there were at my table a hundred and fifty of the Jews and the rulers, besides those that came to us from among the nations that were about us.
18 Haddaba maalintiiba waxaa naloo diyaarin jiray dibi iyo lix neef oo wanaagsan oo ido ah; oo weliba waxaa la ii diyaarin jiray digaag, oo tobankii maalmoodba mar baa naloo keeni jiray cayn kasta oo khamri ah; oo weliba intaas oo dhan anigu marna ma weyddiisan cuntadii taliyaha, maxaa yeelay, addoonnimada dadkan saarnayd aad bay u cuslayd.
And that which was prepared daily was one ox [and] six choice sheep; also fowls were prepared for me, and once in ten days all sorts of wine in abundance. Yet for all this I demanded not the bread of the governor; for the service was heavy upon this people.
19 Ilaahayow, wanaag igu xusuuso wixii aan dadkan u sameeyey oo dhan aawadiis.
Remember for me, my God, for good, all that I have done for this people.
