Nehemia 2
1 Nisan bosome (bɛyɛ Oforisuo) wɔ Ɔhene Artasasta adedie afe a ɛtɔ so aduonu mu no, na merehyɛ ɔhene nsa. Ɛbɛsi saa ɛberɛ no, na menyɛɛ mʼanim bosaa wɔ ɔhene anim da.
Pa mwezi wa Nisani, mʼchaka cha makumi awiri cha ufumu wa Aritasasita, atabwera ndi vinyo pamaso pa mfumu ine ndinatenga vinyoyo ndi kupereka kwa mfumu. Koma ndinali ndisanakhalepo ndi nkhope yachisoni pamaso pake.
2 Enti, ɔhene no bisaa me sɛ, “Adɛn enti na wo werɛ aho saa? Woyare anaa? Wosɛ obi a ɔhaw kɛseɛ bi da ne so.” Ehu kɛseɛ tɔɔ me so,
Tsono mfumu inandifunsa kuti, “Nʼchifukwa chiyani nkhope yako ikuoneka yachisoni pamene iwe sukudwala? Ichi si chinthu china koma chisoni cha mu mtima.” Ine ndinachita mantha kwambiri.
3 nanso, mebuaa sɛ, “Ɔhene nkwa so! Adɛn enti na ɛnsɛ sɛ me werɛ hoɔ? Kuropɔn a wɔsiee me mpanimfoɔ wɔ mu no abubu, na wɔahye nʼapono no nyinaa.”
Ndinawuza mfumu kuti, “Mfumu ikhale ndi moyo wamuyaya! Kodi nkhope yanga ilekerenji kuoneka yachisoni pamene mzinda umene kuli manda a makolo anga, wasanduka bwinja ndipo zipata zake zinawonongedwa ndi moto?”
4 Ɔhene no bisaa sɛ, “Ɛyɛ, ɛkwan bɛn so na mɛtumi aboa wo?” Na mebɔɔ ɔsoro Onyankopɔn mpaeɛ,
Apo mfumu inandifunsa kuti, “Tsono ukufuna kundipempha chiyani?” Ndipo ine ndinapemphera kwa Mulungu Wakumwamba.
5 buaa sɛ, “Sɛ ɛsɔ Ɔhene Kɛseɛ ani, na sɛ me, wo ɔsomfoɔ, mesɔ wʼani a, ɛnneɛ ma menkɔ Yuda nkɔsiesie kuropɔn a wɔasie mʼagyanom wɔ mu no.”
Ndipo ndinayankha kuti, “Ngati amfumu chingakukondweretseni, ngati mungakomere mtima mtumiki wanune, mundilole kuti ndipite ku Yuda, ku mzinda kumene kuli manda a makolo anga kuti ndikawumangenso.”
6 Ɛberɛ a ɔhemmaa te Ɔhene nkyɛn no, Ɔhene no bisaa sɛ, “Wokɔ a, wobɛdi nna ahe? Da bɛn na wobɛsane aba?” Ɔhene penee so, na mekyerɛɛ da a mɛsim.
Tsono mfumu, mfumukazi itakhala pambali pake, anandifunsa kuti, “Kodi kumeneko ukakhalako masiku angati ndipo udzabwera liti?” Ndinayiwuza mfumu nthawi yake ndipo inandilola kuti ndipite.
7 Afei, meka kyerɛɛ ɔhene sɛ, “Ɔhene Kɛseɛ sɛ ɛsɔ wʼani a, ma me nkrataa nkɔma amradofoɔ a wɔwɔ mantam a ɛda Asubɔnten Eufrate atɔeɛ fam no, na wɔmma me kwan mfa wɔn mantam mu nkɔ Yuda.
Ndipo ndinatinso kwa mfumu, “Ngati zikondweretse mfumu, mundipatse makalata oti ndikapereke kwa abwanamkubwa a ku chigawo cha Patsidya pa Yufurate, kuti akandilole kudutsa mwamtendere mpaka nditakafika ku Yuda.
8 Na mesrɛ sɛ, ma me krataa nkɔma Asaf a ɔhwɛ ɔhene kwaeɛ so na ɔmma me nnua. Mede bɛyɛ mpunan ama Asɔredan no aban ano apono, kuropɔn no afasuo ne mʼankasa me fie.” Na ɔhene no penee saa abisadeɛ yi nyinaa so, ɛfiri sɛ, na Onyankopɔn ahummɔborɔ nsa no wɔ me so.
Mundipatsenso kalata yokapereka kwa Asafu woyangʼanira nkhalango ya mfumu, kuti akandipatse mitengo yokapangira mitanda ya zipata za nsanja yoteteza Nyumba ya Mulungu, mitanda ya khoma la mzinda ndi ya nyumba yokhalamo ine.” Mfumu indipatse zomwe ndinapempha popeza Yehova wokoma mtima anali nane.
9 Meduruu amradofoɔ a wɔwɔ Asubɔnten Eufrate atɔeɛ fam nkyɛn no, mede ɔhene nkrataa no maa wɔn. Deɛ ɛka ho ne sɛ, ɔhene maa asraafoɔ ne apɔnkɔsotefoɔ kaa me ho bɔɔ me ho ban.
Choncho ndinanyamuka ulendo wanga ndipo ndinafika kwa abwanamkubwa a chigawo cha Patsidya pa Yufurate ndipo ndinawapatsa makalata a mfumu. Mfumu nʼkuti itatumiza akulu ankhondo ndi okwera pa akavalo kuti atsagane nane.
10 Nanso, Haronini Sanbalat ne Amonni Tobia a wɔyɛ mpanimfoɔ tee sɛ mabɛduru no, wɔn bo fuu yie sɛ obi aba hɔ a ɔpɛ sɛ ɔboa Israel.
Sanibalati wa ku Horoni ndi Tobiya wa ku Amoni atamva zimenezi, iwo anayipidwa kwambiri kuti wina wabwera kudzachitira zabwino Aisraeli.
11 Meduruu Yerusalem nnansa akyi no,
Ndinafika ku Yerusalemu, ndipo ndinakhala kumeneko masiku atatu.
12 mefaa nnipa kakra bi kaa me ho, firii hɔ anadwo no. Manka nhyehyɛeɛ a Onyankopɔn de ahyɛ mʼakoma mu wɔ Yerusalem ho no ankyerɛ obiara. Yɛamfa mmoa biara anka yɛn ho sɛ afunumu a mete ne soɔ no nko.
Sindinawuze munthu aliyense za zimene Yehova anayika mu mtima mwanga kuti ndichitire mzinda wa Yerusalemu. Choncho ndinanyamuka usiku pamodzi ndi anthu ena owerengeka. Ndinalibe bulu wina aliyense kupatula amene ndinakwerapo.
13 Mefaa Bɔnhwa Ɛpono no ano, twaa Ɔtweaseɛ Abura no ho kɔsii Sumina Ɛpono no ano, kɔhwɛɛ afasuo ne apono a ahyeɛ no.
Ndinatuluka usiku podzera ku Chipata cha ku Chigwa ndi kuyenda kupita ku Chitsime cha Chirombo Chamʼmadzi mpaka ku Chipata cha Zinyalala. Ndinayangʼana makoma a Yerusalemu, amene anagwetsedwa, ndi zipata zake, zimene zinawonongedwa ndi moto.
14 Afei, mefaa Asutire Ɛpono no ho kɔsii Ɔhene Abura no ho, nanso na mʼafunumu no ntumi mfa mmubuiɛ no mu.
Kenaka ndinapita ku Chipata cha Kasupe ndi ku Dziwe la Mfumu. Koma panalibe malo okwanira akuti bulu wanga adutse.
15 Enti, mefaa Kidron Bɔnhwa no ho mmom, kɔhwɛɛ ɔfasuo no ansa na meresane mʼakyi abɛfa Bɔnhwa Ɛpono no mu bio.
Kotero usikuwo ndinapita ku chigwa, ndikuyangʼana khomalo. Pomaliza ndinabwerera ndi kukalowanso mu mzinda kudzera ku Chipata cha ku Chigwa.
16 Na kuropɔn no mu mpanimfoɔ nnim sɛ makɔ hɔ, na wɔnnim deɛ mereyɛ nso, ɛfiri sɛ, na menkaa asɛm biara a ɛfa mʼadwene a mayɛ ho nkyerɛɛ obiara. Na me ne asɔre mpanimfoɔ, amanyɛ ntuanofoɔ, adwumayɛfoɔ anaa mmapɔmma no mu biara nkasaeɛ.
Akuluakulu sanadziwe kumene ndinapita kapena zimene ndimachita, chifukwa pa nthawiyi nʼkuti ndisananene kalikonse kwa Ayuda kapena ansembe, anthu olemekezeka kapena akuluakulu, kapena wina aliyense amene anali woyenera kugwira ntchitoyi.
17 Na afei, meka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Monim amaneɛ a ato yɛn kuropɔn yi yie. Abubu na nʼapono nso ahye. Momma yɛnto Yerusalem ɔfasuo no bio mfa mpepa animguaseɛ a ato yɛn yi!”
Ndinawawuza kuti, “Inu mukuona mavuto amene tili nawo. Mukuona kuti mzinda wa Yerusalemu wasanduka bwinja ndipo zipata zake zatenthedwa ndi moto. Tsono tiyeni timangenso makoma a Yerusalemu ndipo sitidzachitanso manyazi.”
18 Afei, mekaa sɛdeɛ Onyankopɔn ahummɔborɔ nsa aba me so no ne me nkɔmmɔ a me ne ɔhene diiɛ no kyerɛɛ wɔn. Wɔbuaa prɛko pɛ sɛ, “Ɛyɛ asɛm pa: Momma yɛnto ɔfasuo no bio!” Enti wɔhyɛɛ adwuma pa yi ase.
Ndinawawuza za mmene Yehova Mulungu wanga anandichitira zabwino ndiponso mawu amene mfumu inandiwuza. Tsono anati, “Tiyeni tiyambenso kumanga.” Kotero analimbitsana mtima kuti ayambenso ntchito yabwinoyi.
19 Ɛberɛ a Sanbalat, Tobia ne Arabni Gesem tee yɛn nhyehyɛeɛ no, wɔdii yɛn ho fɛ, na wɔbuu animtia kaa sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na moreyɛ yi, na morete ɔhene anim atua sei?”
Koma Sanibalati wa ku Horoni, Tobiya wa ku Amoni ndi Gesemu Mwarabu atamva zimenezi, anatiseka ndi kutinyoza. Iwo anafunsa kuti, “Kodi muti ndi chiyani chimene mukuchitachi? Kodi mufuna kuwukira mfumu?”
20 Na mebuaa sɛ, “Ɔsoro Onyankopɔn bɛboa yɛn, ama yɛadi nkonim. Yɛn a yɛyɛ nʼasomfoɔ bɛhyɛ aseɛ ato ɔfasuo yi bio. Nanso, mo deɛ monni kyɛfa biara wɔ Yerusalem.”
Koma ndinawayankha kuti, “Mulungu Wakumwamba atithandiza kuti zinthu zitiyendere bwino. Ife antchito ake tiyambapo kumanga. Koma inu mulibe gawo lanu muno mu Yerusalemu. Mulibe chokuyenerezani kulandira malo ano. Mulibenso chilichonse muno chokumbutsa za inu.”
