Nexemyaah 6
1 Haddaba markii Sanballad iyo Toobiyaah iyo Geshem kii Carabka ahaa, iyo cadaawayaashayadii kale loo sheegay inaan derbigii dhisay iyo inaan innaba daldalool lagu arag (in kastoo wakhtigaas aanan weli qotomin albaabbadii irdaha),
Now it came to pass, when Sanballat, and Tobiah, and Geshem the Arabian, and the rest of our enemies, heard that I had built the wall, and [that] there was no breach left in it, (though at that time I had not set up the doors upon the gates; )
2 ayay Sanballad iyo Geshem ii soo cid direen oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Kaalay oo aan ku wada kulanno tuulooyinka bannaanka Oonoo ku yaal middood. Laakiinse waxay ku fikireen inay belaayo igu sameeyaan.
That Sanballat and Geshem sent to me, saying, Come, let us meet together in [some one of] the villages in the plain of Ono. But they thought to do me mischief.
3 Oo waxaan u diray wargeeyayaal, oo ku idhi, Waxaan samaynayaa shuqul weyn oo sidaas daraaddeed ma iman karo. Bal maxaa shuqulku u joogsanayaa markaan ka tago oo aan idiin imaado?
And I sent messengers to them, saying, I [am] doing a great work, so that I cannot come down: why should the work cease, whilst I leave it, and come down to you?
4 Oo fartiin caynkaas ah ayay afar jeer ii soo direen; oo anna isla sidii baan ugu jawaabay.
Yet they sent to me four times after this sort; and I answered them after the same manner.
5 Oo haddana isla sidaas oo kale Sanballad wuxuu markii shanaad ii soo diray midiidinkiisii oo gacanta ku sida warqad furan.
Then Sanballat sent his servant to me in like manner the fifth time with an open letter in his hand;
6 Oo waxaa ku qornaa, Waxaa quruumaha dhexdooda laga sheegay, Gashmuuna uu leeyahay, in adiga iyo Yuhuudduba aad ku talo jirtaan inaad fallaagowdaan, oo waa taas daraaddeed waxaad derbiga u dhisaysaa, oo sida waafaqsan erayadan la soo sheegay waxaad doonaysaa inaad boqor u ahaatid.
In which [was] written, It is reported among the heathen, and Gashmu saith [it], [that] thou and the Jews think to rebel: for which cause thou buildest the wall that thou mayest be their king, according to these words.
7 Oo weliba waxaad dooratay nebiyo si ay wax kugu saabsan dadka Yeruusaalem ugu wacdiyaan, iyagoo leh, Dalka Yahuudah waxaa jooga boqor. Haddaba erayadan waxaa loo sheegi doonaa boqorka. Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed kaalay, oo aan tashannee.
And thou hast also appointed prophets to preach of thee at Jerusalem, saying, [There is] a king in Judah: and now shall it be reported to the king according to these words. Come now therefore, and let us take counsel together.
8 Markaasaan u cid diray oo ku idhi, Waxaad leedahay oo kale halkan innaba laguma samayn, laakiinse adigaa qalbigaaga ka soo hindisay.
Then I sent to him, saying, There are no such things done as thou sayest, but thou feignest them out of thy own heart.
9 Waayo, dhammaantood waxay doonayeen inay na cabsiiyaan, oo waxay isyidhaahdeen, Shuqulkay ka daali doonaan, mana dhammayn doonaan. Laakiinse, Ilaahow, xoog ii yeel.
For they all made us afraid, saying, Their hands shall be weakened from the work, that it may not be done. Now therefore, [O God], strengthen my hands.
10 Markaasaan tegey gurigii Shemacyaah ina Delaayaah oo ahaa ina Meheetabeel oo xidhnaa; oo wuxuu igu yidhi, Guriga Rabbiga oo ah macbudka dhexdiisa aan ku kulanno, oo aan xidhanno albaabbada macbudka, waayo, iyagu waxay u iman doonaan inay ku dilaan. Haah, oo habeennimada ayay u soo iman doonaan inay ku dilaan.
Afterward I came to the house of Shemaiah the son of Delaiah the son of Mehetabeel, who [was] shut up; and he said, Let us meet together in the house of God, within the temple, and let us shut the doors of the temple: for they will come to slay thee; yea, in the night will they come to slay thee.
11 Aniguse waxaan ku idhi, Nin anigoo kale ahu miyuu cararaa? Bal waase kee, kan aniga ila mid ah oo macbudka u geli lahaa inuu naftiisa ku badbaadiyo? Geli maayo.
And I said, Should such a man as I flee? and who [is there], that, [being] as I [am], would go into the temple to save his life? I will not go in.
12 Markaasaan gartay inaan Ilaah isaga soo dirin, laakiinse hadal iga gees ah ayuu ugu hadlay sidii nebi oo kale, waayo, waxaa soo kiraystay Toobiyaah iyo Sanballad.
And lo, I perceived that God had not sent him; but that he pronounced this prophecy against me: for Tobiah and Sanballat had hired him.
13 Oo taas aawadeed baa isaga loo soo kiraystay inaan cabsado oo saas yeelo oo aan dembaabo, iyo inay iyagu sabab u helaan war xun si ay iigu ceebeeyaan.
Therefore [was] he hired, that I should be afraid, and do so, and sin, and [that] they might have [matter] for an evil report, that they might reproach me.
14 Haddaba Ilaahayow, sida shuqulladoodu yihiin u xusuuso Toobiyaah iyo Sanballad iyo weliba nebiyaddii Noocadyaah iyo nebiyadii kale oo damcay inay i cabsigeliyaan.
My God, think thou upon Tobiah and Sanballat according to these their works, and on the prophetess Noadiah, and the rest of the prophets, that would have put me in fear.
15 Oo sidaasaa derbigii laba iyo konton maalmood loogu dhammeeyey bishii Eluul maalinteedii shan iyo labaatanaad.
So the wall was finished in the twenty and fifth [day] of [the month] Elul, in fifty and two days.
16 Oo markii cadaawayaashayadii oo dhammu ay taas maqleen ayay kulli quruumihii hareerahayaga ku wareegsanaa oo dhammu wada cabsadeen, oo aad bay u ceeboobeen, waayo, waxay garteen in shuqulkan laga sameeyey Ilaahayaga xaggiisa.
And it came to pass, that when all our enemies heard [of it], and all the heathen that [were] about us saw [these things], they were much cast down in their own eyes: for they perceived that this work was wrought by our God.
17 Oo weliba waagaas kuwii gobta ahaa oo dalka Yahuudah warqado badan bay u direen Toobiyaah, oo iyagana waxaa u yimid warqadihii Toobiyaah.
Moreover, in those days the nobles of Judah sent many letters to Tobiah, and [the letters] of Tobiah came to them.
18 Waayo, dalka Yahuudah waxaa joogay kuwo badan oo isaga u dhaartay, maxaa yeelay, isaga waxaa soddog u ahaa Shekaanyaah ina Aarax; oo wiilkiisii Yehooxaanaanna wuxuu guursaday Meshullaam ina Berekyaah gabadhiisii.
For [there were] many in Judah sworn to him, because he [was] the son-in-law of Shechaniah the son of Arah; and his son Johanan had taken the daughter of Meshullam the son of Berechiah.
19 Oo weliba waxay hortayda kaga hadleen falimihiisii wanaagsanaa, oo hadalkaygana isagay u sheegeen. Toobiyaahna warqaduu iigu soo diray inuu i cabsiiyo.
Also they reported his good deeds before me, and uttered my words to him. [And] Tobiah sent letters to put me in fear.
