1 ɔmanfoɔ no nyinaa hyiaa wɔ wɔn nsuseneeɛ ɛpono no ano. Ɔmanfoɔ no ka kyerɛɛ Ɛsra a ɔyɛ mmara no kyerɛkyerɛni sɛ ɔnkenkan Mose mmara a Awurade ahyɛ sɛ Israelfoɔ nni so no.
Anthu onse anasonkhana ngati munthu mmodzi pabwalo limene lili patsogolo pa Chipata cha Madzi. Iwo anawuza mlembi Ezara kuti abwere ndi buku la malamulo a Mose limene Yehova anapereka kwa Aisraeli.
2 Enti, bosome Tisri (bɛyɛ Ahinime) da a ɛtɔ so nwɔtwe no, ɔsɔfoɔ Ɛsra de krataa mmobɔeɛ a mmara no wɔ mu no baa badwa no a mmarima ne mmaa ne mmɔfra a wɔanyini te asɛm ase no anim.
Choncho pa tsiku loyamba la mwezi wachisanu ndi chiwiri wansembe Ezara, anabwera ndi buku la malamulo ku msonkhano wa amuna, akazi ndi ana onse amene ankatha kumvetsa zinthu bwino.
3 Ɔde nʼani kyerɛɛ adwaberem wɔ nsuseneeɛ ɛpono no ano, firi anɔpahema kɔsii owigyinaeɛ kenkanee mmara no den, maa obiara a ɔte aseɛ no teeɛ. Ɔmanfoɔ no nyinaa wɛnee wɔn aso, tiee mmara no.
Choncho Ezara anawerenga bukulo atayangʼana bwalo la Chipata cha Madzi kuyambira mmawa mpaka masana pamaso pa amuna, akazi ndi onse amene ankamvetsa bwino zinthu. Ndipo anthu onse anatchera khutu kuti amve malamulowo.
4 Ɛsra a ɔyɛ mmara no kyerɛkyerɛni no gyinaa apa tenten bi a wɔsi maa saa da no so. Nnipa a na wɔgyinagyina ne nifa so no no din de Matitia, Sema, Anaia, Uria, Hilkia ne Maaseia. Wɔn a na wɔgyinagyina ne benkum so no no din de Pedaia, Misael, Malkia, Hasum, Hasbadana, Sakaria ne Mesulam.
Mlembi Ezara anayimirira pa nsanja ya mitengo imene anthu anamanga chifukwa cha msonkhanowu. Ku dzanja lake lamanja kunayimirira Matitiya, Sema, Anaya, Uriya, Hilikiya ndi Maaseya, ndipo kudzanja lake lamanzere kunali Pedaya, Misaeli, Malikiya, Hasumu, Hasibadana, Zekariya ndi Mesulamu.
5 Ɛsra gyinaa apa no so a nnipa dɔm no nyinaa hunu no. Ɛberɛ a wɔhunuu sɛ wabue nwoma no mu no, wɔn nyinaa sɔresɔre gyinaa wɔn nan so.
Tsono Ezara anatsekula buku, akuona popeza anayima pa nsanja. Pamene anafutukula bukulo anthu onse anayimirira.
6 Na Ɛsra kamfoo Awurade, Otumfoɔ Onyankopɔn, na ɔmanfoɔ no bɔ gyee so sɛ, “Amen! Amen!” wɔ ɛberɛ a wɔmemaa wɔn nsa so kyerɛɛ ɔsoro. Afei, wɔkotokotoeɛ, somm Awurade a wɔn anim butubutu fam.
Ezara anatamanda Yehova, Mulungu wamkulu, ndipo anthu onse anakweza manja awo ndi kuyankha kuti, “Ameni, ameni.” Pambuyo pake onse anaweramitsa pansi mitu yawo napembedza Yehova akanali chizolikire choncho.
7 Afei, Lewifoɔ a wɔn din de Yesua, Bani, Serebia, Yamin, Akub, Sabetai, Hodia, Maaseia, Kelita, Asaria, Yosabad, Hanan ne Pelaia kyerɛɛ ɔmanfoɔ a wɔgyinagyina hɔ no deɛ wɔnyɛ.
Anthuwo atayimiriranso Alevi awa: Yesuwa, Bani, Serebiya, Yamini, Akubu, Sabetayi, Hodiya, Maaseya, Kerita, Azariya, Yozabadi, Hanani ndi Pelaya anawathandiza kuti amvetse bwino malamulowo.
8 Wɔkenkan firii Onyankopɔn mmara nwoma no mu kyerɛɛ wɔn deɛ wɔkenkan no ase, boaa ɔmanfoɔ no ma wɔtee twerɛpɛn biara ase.
Iwo anawerenga buku la malamulo a Mulungu momveka bwino ndi kutanthauzira mawuwo kuti anthu amvetse bwino zowerengedwazo.
9 Na amrado Nehemia, ɔsɔfoɔ Ɛsra a ɔyɛ mmara no kyerɛkyerɛni ne Lewifoɔ a na wɔrekyerɛkyerɛ aseɛ akyerɛ ɔmanfoɔ no ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Monnsu ɛda a ɛte sɛ yei! Ɛfiri sɛ, ɛnnɛ yɛ ɛda kronkron wɔ Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn, anim.” Nnipa no tee mmara no mu nsɛm no, wɔn nyinaa suiɛ.
Tsono bwanamkubwa Nehemiya pamodzi ndi wansembe ndi mlembi Ezara komanso Alevi amene amaphunzitsa anthu anati kwa anthu onse, “Lero ndi tsiku lopatulika kwa Yehova Mulungu wanu. Musakhale ndi chisoni ndipo musalire.” Anayankhula choncho popeza anthu onse ankalira atamva mawu a buku la malamulo lija.
10 Na Nehemia toaa so sɛ, “Momfa nnuane pa ne anonneɛ a ɛyɛ dɛ nkɔdi afahyɛ no na mo ne wɔn a wɔnni nnuane pa a wɔanoa no nnidi. Ɛnnɛ yɛ da kronkron wɔ Awurade anim. Monnni abooboo ne awerɛhoɔ, na Awurade mu anigyeɛ no yɛ ahoɔden.”
Nehemiya anatinso, “Pitani, kachiteni phwando ku nyumba ndipo mukawagawireko ena amene alibe kanthu kalikonse popeza lero ndi tsiku lopatulika kwa Yehova. Musakhale ndi chisoni, pakuti chimwemwe cha Yehova ndiye mphamvu yanu.”
11 Na Lewifoɔ no nso kasaa sɛ, “Hwɛ! Monnsu. Ɛfiri sɛ, ɛnnɛ yɛ ɛda kronkron” de dwodwoo wɔn.
Alevi anakhalitsa bata anthu onse powawuza kuti, “Khalani chete, pakuti lero ndi tsiku lopatulika ndipo musakhale ndi chisoni.”
12 Na nnipa no kɔdidiiɛ, kyɛɛ nnuane, nomeeɛ, dii dapɔnna no anigyeɛ so, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔtee Onyankopɔn nsɛm, tee aseɛ.
Anthu onse anachoka kupita kukadya ndi kumwa. Chakudya china anatumiza kwa anzawo. Choncho panali chikondwerero chachikulu popeza tsopano anali atamvetsa bwino mawu a Mulungu amene anawawerengera ndi kuwafotokozerawo.
13 Na bosome Tisri (bɛyɛ Ahinime) a ɛtɔ so nkron no, mmusua ntuanofoɔ no ne asɔfoɔ no ne Lewifoɔ no ne Ɛsra hyiaeɛ sɛ, wɔrekɔ mmara no mu fekɔfekɔ.
Mmawa mwake atsogoleri a mabanja pamodzi ndi ansembe ndi alevi anasonkhana kwa Ezara, mlembi wa malamulo kuti aphunzire mawu a malamulowo.
14 Wɔkɔɔ mmara no mu no, wɔhunuu sɛ, Awurade nam Mose so ahyɛ sɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ Israelfoɔ no tena asese mu afahyɛ a wɔrebɛdi no saa bosome no mu no.
Tsono anapeza kuti zinalembedwa mʼbuku la malamulo kuti Yehova analamula kudzera mwa Mose kuti Aisraeli azikhala mʼzithando pa nthawi yonse ya chikondwerero cha mwezi wachisanu ndi chiwiri.
15 Waka sɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔbɔ nhyɛ no ho dawuro wɔ wɔn nkuro nyinaa so, ne titire no, Yerusalem nam so aka akyerɛ ɔmanfoɔ no sɛ, wɔnkɔ nkokoɔ so nkɔpɛ ngo dua mman, kranku mman, ohwannua mman, ɛberɛ ne nnua kusukusuu mman, na wɔmfa mmɛbobɔ asese ntena mu, sɛdeɛ wɔatwerɛ no mmara no mu no.
Choncho analengeza ndi kufalitsa mʼmizinda yawo yonse ndi mu Yerusalemu kuti, “Pitani ku phiri mukadule nthambi za mtengo wa olivi, za mtengo wa olivi wa kutchire, za mtengo wa mchisu, za mtengo wa mgwalangwa ndiponso za mitengo ina ya masamba, zomangira zithando monga zalembedweramu ndi kubwera nazo.”
16 Enti, nnipa no kɔtwitwaa mman, na wɔde sisii asese wɔ wɔn afie, wɔn adihɔ, Onyankopɔn asɔredan adihɔ anaa adwaberem a ɛwowɔ asutene apono no ne Efraim apono no mu.
Choncho anthu anapita kukatenga nthambi ndipo aliyense anadzimangira misasa pa denga ya nyumba yake, mʼmabwalo awo, mʼmabwalo a Nyumba ya Mulungu, mʼbwalo la pa Chipata cha Madzi ndiponso mʼbwalo la pa Chipata cha Efereimu.
17 Enti, obiara a wafiri nneduasom mu aba no kɔtenaa saa asese yi mu afahyɛberɛ no nnanson mu, na obiara ani gyee yie. Ɛfiri Nun babarima Yosua berɛ so no, Israelfoɔ anni afahyɛ no saa ɛkwan yi so.
Gulu lonse la anthu limene linabwera ku ukapolo linamanga misasa ndipo linakhala mʼmenemo. Kuyambira nthawi ya Yoswa mwana wa Nuni mpaka tsiku limenelo nʼkuti Aisraeli asanachitepo zimenezi. Choncho panali chimwemwe chachikulu.
18 Ɛsra kenkan firii Onyankopɔn mmara nwoma no mu wɔ afahyɛ no mu nnanson no mu da biara. Afei, Tisri bosome (bɛyɛ Ahinime) da a ɛtɔ so dunum no, wɔyɛɛ nhyiamu anibereɛ so, sɛdeɛ Mose mmara hwehwɛ no.
Tsiku ndi tsiku, kuyambira tsiku loyamba mpaka lomaliza, Ezara ankawerenga buku la malamulo a Mulungu. Anthu anachita chikondwerero masiku asanu ndi awiri. Pa tsiku lachisanu ndi chitatu panachitika msonkhano potsata buku la malamulo lija.
