< Nehemiya 2 >
1 We shundaq boldiki, padishah Artaxshashtaning yigirminchi yili Nisan éyi, padishahning aldigha sharab keltürülgenidi; men sharabni élip padishahqa sundum. Buningdin ilgiri men padishahning aldida héchqachan ghemkin körün’gen emes idim.
After King Artaxerxes [had been ruling the Persian Empire] for almost 20 years, (during the spring/before the hot season) of that year, when it was time to serve wine to him [during a feast], I took the wine and gave it to him. I had never looked sad when I was in front of him before, [but on that day he saw that I looked very sad].
2 Shuning bilen padishah méningdin: — Birer késiling bolmisa, chiraying némishqa shunche ghemkin körünidu? Könglüngde choqum bir derd bar, déwidi, men intayin qorqup kettim.
So he asked me, “Why are you sad? [I know that] you are not sick. It must be that you are troubled about something.” Then I was very afraid, [because it was not proper to be sad when I came to the king] (OR, [because I was worried what the king would do to me if he refused to do what I was about to request him to do]).
3 Men padishahqa: — Padishahim menggü yashighayla! Ata-bowilirimning qebriliri jaylashqan sheher xarabilikke aylan’ghan, derwaza-qowuqliri köydürüwétilgen tursa, men qandaqmu ghemkin körünmey? — dédim.
I replied, “Your majesty, I hope you will live a very long time! But (how can I prevent myself from being sad, because the city where my ancestors are buried [has been destroyed] and is in ruins?/I cannot keep myself from looking sad, because the city where my ancestors are buried [has been destroyed and] is in ruins.) [RHQ] [Even] the city gates have been completely burned.”
4 Padishah méningdin: — Séning néme teliping bar? — dep soriwidi, men asmandiki Xudagha dua qilip,
The king replied, “What do you want me to do [for you]?” I prayed [silently] to our God [who is/rules] in heaven.
5 andin padishahqa: — Eger padishahimning könglige muwapiq körünse, qulliri özlirining aldida iltipatqa érishken bolsa, méni Yehudiyege ewetken bolsila, ata-bowilirimning qebriliri jaylashqan sheherge bérip, uni yéngiwashtin qurup chiqsam, dédim.
Then I replied, “If you are willing [to do it], and if I have pleased you, send me to the city [of Jerusalem] in Judah [province] where my ancestors are buried, in order that I may [help people to] rebuild the city.”
6 Padishah (shu chaghda xanish padishahning yénida olturatti) mendin: — Sepiringge qanchilik waqit kétidu? Qachan qaytip kélisen? — dep soridi. Shuning bilen padishah méni ewetishni muwapiq kördi; menmu uninggha qaytip kélidighan bir waqitni békittim.
While the queen was sitting beside the king, he asked, [“If I allow you to go, ] how long will you be gone? When will you return?” [I told the king how long I would be gone, and] the king gave me permission to go, and I told him what day [I wanted to leave].
7 Men yene padishahtin: — Aliylirigha muwapiq körünse, manga [Efrat] deryasining u qétidiki waliylargha méni taki Yehudiyege barghuche ötkili qoyush toghruluq yarliq xetlirini pütüp bergen bolsila;
I also said to the king, “If you are willing to do it, write letters for me to take to the governors of the province west of the [Euphrates] River. Tell them to allow me to travel safely [through their province] until I arrive in Judah.
8 We yene padishahliq ormanliqigha qaraydighan Asafqa muqeddes öyge tewe bolghan qel’ening derwaziliri, shuningdek sheherning sépili we özüm turidighan öyge kétidighan limlarni yasashqa kéreklik yaghachlarni manga bérish toghruluqmu bir yarliqni pütüp bergen bolsila, dédim. Xudayimning shepqetlik qoli üstümde bolghachqa, padishah iltipat qilip bularning hemmisini manga berdi.
Also, [please write] a letter to Asaph, the man who takes care of your forest [in that area], telling him to give me timber to make the beams to support the gates of the fortress that is near the temple, and timber for making the walls of the city, and for building the house in which I [will live].” The king did what I requested him to do, because my God was graciously/kindly (helping/acting for) me.
9 Shuning bilen men deryaning u qétidiki waliylarning yénigha bérip padishahning yarliqlirini tapshurdum. Padishah yene birnechche qoshun serdarliri bilen atliq leshkerlernimu manga hemrah bolushqa orunlashturghanidi.
[After I got ready, I left to travel to Judah]. The king sent some army officers and soldiers riding on horses to accompany me, [to protect me]. When I came to where the governors of the provinces west of the [Euphrates] River lived, I gave them the letters that the king had written.
10 Horonluq Sanballat bilen Ammoniy Tobiya dégen emeldar Israillarning menpeetini izdep adem keptu, dégen xewerni anglap intayin narazi boldi.
But when [two government officials, ] Sanballat from [a village near] Horon and Tobiah from the Ammon [people-group], heard that I had arrived, they were very angry that someone had come to help the Israeli people.
11 Men Yérusalémgha kélip üch kün turdum.
When I arrived in Jerusalem, I did not tell anyone what thoughts God had given to me about what I should do there. Three days after I arrived in Jerusalem, I went out of the city in the evening, taking a few other men with me. I was riding a donkey; we had no other animals with us.
12 Andin kéchisi men we manga hemrah bolghan birnechche adem ornimizdin turduq (men Xudayimning könglümge Yérusalém üchün néme ishlarni qilishni salghanliqi toghrisida héchkimge birer néme démigenidim). Özüm min’gen ulaghdin bashqa héchqandaq ulaghmu almay,
13 kéchisi «Jilgha qowuqi»din chiqip «Ejdiha buliqi»gha qarap méngip, «Tézek qowuqi»gha kélip, Yérusalémning buzuwétilgen sépillirini we köydürüwétilgen qowuq-derwazilirini közdin kechürdum.
We left the city, going out through the Valley Gate, then past the well called the Jackal (OR, Dragon’s) Well, and then past the gate called the Rubbish/Garbage Gate. We inspected all the walls that had been broken down and all the gates that had been burned down.
14 Yene aldigha méngip «Bulaq qowuqi» bilen «Shahane köl»ge keldim; lékin shu yerde men min’gen ulaghning ötüshike yol bek tar kelgechke,
Then we went to the Fountain Gate and to the pool called the King’s Pool, but my donkey could not get through [the narrow opening] (OR, [the rubble]).
15 kéchide men jilgha bilen chiqip sépilni közdin kechürüp chiqtim. Andin yénip «Jilgha qowuqi»din sheherge kirip, öyge qayttim.
So we turned back and went along the [Kidron] Valley. We inspected the wall there before we turned back/around and entered the city again at the Valley Gate.
16 Emeldarlarning héchqaysisi méning nege barghanliqimni we néme qilghanliqimni bilmey qélishti, chünki men ya Yehudiylargha, kahinlargha, ya emir-hakimlargha we yaki bashqa xizmet qilidighanlargha héchnéme éytmighanidim.
The [city] officials did not know where I had gone or what I was doing, because I had not told anyone about what I planned to do. I had not said anything about it to the Jewish leaders or the officials or the priests or any of the others who would be helping me in the work [that I wanted to do].
17 Kéyin men ulargha: — Siler béshimizgha kelgen balayi’apetni, Yérusalémning xarabige aylan’ghanliqini, sépil qowuqlirining köydürüwétilgenlikini kördünglar; kélinglar, hemmimiz haqaretke qéliwermeslikimiz üchün Yérusalémning sépilini qaytidin yasap chiqayli, — dédim.
But now I said to them, “You all know very well the terrible things [that have happened to] our city. The city is ruined; even the gates are burned down. So we should rebuild the city wall. If we do that, we will no longer feel humiliated/disgraced.”
18 Men yene ulargha Xudayimning shepqetlik qolining méning üstümde bolghanliqini we padishahning manga qilghan geplirini éytiwidim, ular: — Ornumizdin turup uni yasayli! — déyiship, bu yaxshi ishni qilishqa öz qollirini quwwetlendürdi.
Then I told them about how God had kindly/graciously helped me [when I talked to the king], and what the king had said to me. They immediately replied, “Let’s start rebuilding!” So they started to do this good work.
19 Lékin Horonluq Sanballat, xizmetkar Ammoniy Tobiya hem ereb bolghan Geshem bu ishni anglap bizni zangliq qilip mensitmey: — Silerning bu qilghininglar néme ish? Siler padishahqa asiyliq qilmaqchimusiler? — déyishti.
But when Sanballat, Tobiah, and Gershom the Arab [king of the Kedar region] heard about what we planned to do, they made fun of us and ridiculed us. They said, “What is this work that you are doing? Are you rebelling against the king [again]?” [RHQ]
20 Men ulargha jawab bérip: — Asmanlardiki Xuda bolsa bizni ghelibige érishtüridu we Uning qulliri bolghan bizler qopup qurimiz. Lékin silerning Yérusalémda héchqandaq nésiwenglar, hoququnglar yaki yadnamenglar yoq, — dédim.
But I replied, “Our God [who is/rules] in heaven will help our plans to succeed. But as for you, you have no right to decide anything about this city, because you have not participated in what has happened in this city in previous years.”
