Nexemyaah 5

1 Markaasaa waxaa dadkii iyo afooyinkooda ka kacay qaylo weyn oo ay kaga cabanayeen walaalahooda Yuhuudda ah.

Nowe there was a great crie of the people, and of their wiues against their brethren the Iewes.

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.

For there were that said, We, our sonnes and our daughters are many, therefore we take vp corne, that we may eate and liue.

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 saide, We must gage our landes, and our vineyardes, and our houses, and take vp corne for the famine.

4 Oo waxaa kaloo jiray kuwo yidhi, Gabbaradii uu boqorku ka doonayay beerahayagii iyo beerahayagii canabka ahaa ayaannu lacag u amaahannay.

There were also that said, We haue borowed money for the Kings tribute vpon our landes and our vineyardes.

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.

And nowe our flesh is as the flesh of our brethren, and our sonnes as their sonnes: and lo, we bring into subiection our sonnes and our daughters, as seruants, and there be of our daughters nowe in subiection, and there is no power in our handes: for other men haue our landes and our vineyardes.

6 Oo anna aad baan u cadhooday markii aan maqlay qayladoodii iyo erayadan.

Then was I very angrie when I heard their crie and these wordes.

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 thought in my minde, and I rebuked the princes, and the rulers, and saide vnto them, You lay burthens euery one vpon his brethren: and I set a great assemblie 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 vnto them, We (according to our abilitie) haue redeemed our brethren the Iewes, which were solde vnto the heathen: and will you sell your brethren againe, or shall they be solde vnto vs? Then helde they their peace, and could not answere.

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?

I said also, That which ye do, is not good. Ought ye not to walke in the feare of our God, for the reproche of the heathen 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.

For euen I, my brethren, and my seruants doe lende them money and corne: I pray you, let vs leaue off this burden.

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, vnto them this day their landes, their vineyardes, their oliues, and their houses, and remit the hundreth part of the siluer and of the corne, of the wine, and of the oyle that ye exact 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.

Then said they, We will restore it, and will not require it of them: we will doe as thou hast said. Then I called the Priestes, and caused them to sweare, that they shoulde doe 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.

So I shooke my lappe, and said, So let God shake out euery man that wil not perfourme this promise from his house, and from his labour: euen thus let him be shaken out, and emptied. And all the Cogregation said, Amen, and praised the Lord: 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.

And from the time that the King gaue me charge to be gouernour in the lande of Iudah, from the twentieth yeere, euen vnto the two and thirtieth yeere of King Artahshashte, that is, twelue yeere, I, and my brethren haue not eaten the bread of the gouernour.

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.

For the former gouernours that were before me, had bene chargeable vnto the people, and had taken of them bread and wine, besides fourtie shekels of siluer: yea, and their seruants bare rule ouer the people: but so did not I, because of the feare 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.

But rather I fortified a portion in the worke of this wall, and we bought no lande, and all my seruants came thither together vnto the worke.

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.

Moreouer there were at my table an hundreth and fiftie of the Iewes, and rulers, which came vnto vs from among the heathen that are about vs.

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 there was prepared daily an oxe, and sixe chosen sheepe, and birdes were prepared for me, and within ten dayes wine for all in abundance. Yet for all this I required not the bread of the gouernour: for the bondage was grieuous vnto this people.

19 Ilaahayow, wanaag igu xusuuso wixii aan dadkan u sameeyey oo dhan aawadiis.

Remember me, O my God, in goodnesse, according to all that I haue done for this people.
