1 Ní ọjọ́ náà ni a ka ìwé Mose sókè sí etí ìgbọ́ àwọn ènìyàn, nínú rẹ̀ ni a ti rí i tí a kọ ọ́ sílẹ̀ pé a kò gbọdọ̀ gba àwọn ará a Ammoni tàbí àwọn ará a Moabu sí àárín ìjọ ènìyàn Ọlọ́run láéláé.

On the day that it was read aloud in [the] scroll of Moses in [the] ears of the people and it was found written in it that not he will come an Ammonite and a Moabite in [the] assembly of God until perpetuity.

2 Nítorí wọn kò mú oúnjẹ àti omi wá pàdé àwọn ọmọ Israẹli lọ́nà, dípò bẹ́ẹ̀, wọ́n bẹ Balaamu ní ọ̀wẹ̀ láti gégùn ún lé wọn lórí. (Ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run wa yí ègún náà padà sí ìbùkún.)

For not they had met [the] people of Israel with food and with water and he had hired on it Balaam to curse it and he turned God our the curse into blessing.

3 Nígbà tí àwọn ènìyàn gbọ́ òfin yìí, wọ́n yọ gbogbo àwọn àjèjì ènìyàn tí ó darapọ̀ mọ́ wọn kúrò láàrín àwọn Israẹli.

And it was when heard they the law and they separated every person of mixed ancestry from Israel.

4 Ṣáájú èyí a ti fi Eliaṣibu àlùfáà ṣe alákòóso yàrá ìkó nǹkan ilé Ọlọ́run wa sí. Ó súnmọ́ Tobiah pẹ́kípẹ́kí.

And before from this Eliashib the priest [was] appointed over [the] store-room of [the] house of God our [one] near to Tobiah.

5 Ó sì ti pèsè yàrá ńlá kan fún un, èyí tí a ń lò tẹ́lẹ̀ fún ìtọ́jú ọrẹ ọkà, tùràrí àti àwọn ohun èlò tẹmpili àti ìdámẹ́wàá ọkà, wáìnì tuntun àti òróró ti a fi lélẹ̀ bí ìlànà fún àwọn ọmọ Lefi, àwọn akọrin àti àwọn aṣọ́nà àti pẹ̀lú gbogbo ọrẹ fún àwọn àlùfáà.

And he made for him a room large and there people were before putting the grain offering the frankincense and the utensils and [the] tithe of the grain the new wine and the fresh oil [the] commandment of the Levites and the singers and the gatekeepers and [the] contribution of the priests.

6 Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí gbogbo èyí ń lọ lọ́wọ́, èmi kò sí ní Jerusalẹmu, nítorí pé ní ọdún kejìlélọ́gbọ̀n Artasasta ọba Babeli ni mo padà tọ ọba lọ. Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí ó ṣe díẹ̀, mo gba ààyè lọ́dọ̀ọ rẹ̀.

And in all this not I was in Jerusalem for in year thirty and two of Artaxerxes [the] king of Babylon I had gone to the king and to [the] end of days I requested leave of absence from the king.

7 Mo sì padà sí Jerusalẹmu. Níhìn-ín ni mo ti mọ̀ nípa onírúurú ohun búburú tí Eliaṣibu ti ṣe ní ti pípèsè yàrá fún Tobiah nínú àgbàlá ilé Ọlọ́run.

And I came to Jerusalem and I perceived! the evil thing which he had done Eliashib for Tobiah by making for him a room in [the] courtyards of [the] house of God.

8 Kò tẹ́ mi lọ́rùn rárá, mo kó gbogbo ohun èlò ìdílé e Tobiah dà síta láti inú iyàrá náà.

And it was displeasing to me exceedingly and I threw! all [the] articles of [the] household of Tobiah the outside from the room.

9 Mo pàṣẹ kí wọn ya àwọn iyàrá náà sí mímọ́, mo sì kó àwọn ohun èlò ilé Ọlọ́run padà síbẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ọrẹ ọkà àti tùràrí.

And I said! and people purified the store-rooms and I brought back! there [the] utensils of [the] house of God the grain offering and the frankincense.

10 Mo sì tún gbọ́ pé, kò fi àwọn ìpín tí a yà sọ́tọ̀ fún àwọn Lefi, àwọn akọrin tí ń ṣe àkóso ìsìn sì ti padà sí ẹnu onírúurú iṣẹ́ wọn.

And I perceived! that [the] portions of the Levites not it had been given and they had fled each one to own field his the Levites and the singers [who] did the work.

11 Nígbà náà ni mo bá àwọn ìjòyè wí, mo sì béèrè lọ́wọ́ wọn pé, “Èéṣe tí a fi kọ ilé Ọlọ́run sílẹ̀?” Nígbà náà ni mo pè wọ́n jọ pọ̀, mo sì fi olúkúlùkù sí ẹnu iṣẹ́ rẹ̀.

And I contended! with the officials and I said! why? has it been neglected [the] house of God and I assembled them and I made stand them at place their.

12 Gbogbo Juda mú ìdámẹ́wàá ọkà, wáìnì tuntun àti òróró wá sínú yàrá ìkó nǹkan pamọ́ sí.

And all Judah they brought [the] tithe of the grain and the new wine and the fresh oil to the storerooms.

13 Mo sì fi àlùfáà Ṣelemiah, Sadoku akọ̀wé àti ọmọ Lefi kan tí orúkọ rẹ̀ ń jẹ́ Pedaiah ṣe alákòóso àwọn yàrá ìkó nǹkan pamọ́ sí. Mo sì yan Hanani ọmọ Sakkuri, ọmọ Mattaniah bí olùrànlọ́wọ́ ọ wọn.

And I appointed as treasurers! over [the] storerooms Shelemiah the priest and Zadok the scribe and Pedaiah one of the Levites and [was] on hand their Hanan [the] son of Zaccur [the] son of Mattaniah for reliable they were thought and [was] on them to distribute to brothers their.

14 Rántí ì mi fún èyí, Ọlọ́run mi, kí o má sì ṣe gbàgbé ohun tí mo fi òtítọ́ ṣe fún ilé Ọlọ́run mi yìí àti fún iṣẹ́ ẹ rẹ̀ gbogbo.

Remember! to me O God my on this and may not you wipe out loyalti my which I have done in [the] house of God my and in services its.

15 Ní ọjọ́ wọ̀n-ọn-nì, mo rí àwọn ènìyàn ní Juda tí wọ́n ń fúntí ní ọjọ́ ìsinmi, tí wọ́n sì ń gbé ọkà wọlé, tí wọn ń di ẹrù lé orí kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ pẹ̀lú wáìnì, èso àjàrà, ọ̀pọ̀tọ́ àti onírúurú ẹrù. Wọ́n sì ń kó gbogbo èyí wá sí Jerusalẹmu ní ọjọ́ ìsinmi. Nítorí náà, mo kìlọ̀ fún wọn nípa títa oúnjẹ ní ọjọ́ náà.

In the days those I saw in Judah - [some who] trod winepresses - on the sabbath and [some who] brought heaps of grain and [some who] loaded [them] on donkeys and also wine grapes and figs and every load and [some who] brought [them] Jerusalem on [the] day of the sabbath and I protested on [the] day sold they food.

16 Àwọn ará Tire ti ń gbé nínú Jerusalẹmu ń gbé ẹja àti onírúurú ọjà wá fún títà ní ọjọ́ ìsinmi fún àwọn ènìyàn Jerusalẹmu àti fún àwọn ọmọ Juda.

And the Tyrians [who] they dwelt in it [were] bringing fish and every merchandise and [were] selling [it] on the sabbath to [the] people of Judah and in Jerusalem.

17 Mo bá àwọn ọlọ́lá Juda wí, mo wí fún wọn pé, “Èwo ni ohun búburú tí ẹ ń ṣe yìí ti ẹ ń ba ọjọ́ ìsinmi jẹ́.

And I contended! with [the] nobles of Judah and I said! to them what? [is] the thing evil this which you [are] doing and [are] profaning [the] day of the sabbath.

18 Ṣé àwọn baba ńlá yín kò ha ti ṣe nǹkan kan náà tí Ọlọ́run wa fi mú gbogbo àjálù yìí wá orí wa, àti sórí ìlú yìí? Báyìí, ẹ̀yin tún ń ru ìbínú sókè sí i sórí Israẹli nípa bíba ọjọ́ ìsinmi jẹ́.”

¿ Not thus did they do ancestors your and he brought God our on us all the trouble this and on the city this and you [are] increasing anger toward Israel by profaning the sabbath.

19 Nígbà tí ojú ọjọ́ ń bora ní ẹnu ibodè Jerusalẹmu, ṣáájú ọjọ́ ìsinmi, mo pàṣẹ pé kí a ti àwọn ìlẹ̀kùn, kí wọn má sì ṣí i títí tí ọjọ́ ìsinmi yóò fi kọjá. Mo yan àwọn ìránṣẹ́ mi láti ṣọ́ ẹnu ibodè, kí a má ba à lè gbé ẹrù kankan wọlé ní ọjọ́ ìsinmi.

And it was just when they became dark [the] gates of Jerusalem before the sabbath and I said! and they were closed the doors and I said! that not people will open them until after the sabbath and some of servants my I stationed at the gates not it will come a load on [the] day of the sabbath.

20 Síbẹ̀, àwọn tí ń tà àti àwọn tí ń rà sùn ẹ̀yìn odi Jerusalẹmu ní ẹ̀ẹ̀kan tàbí ẹ̀ẹ̀mejì.

And they passed [the] night the traders and [the] sellers of every merchandise from [the] outside of Jerusalem a time and two [times].

21 Ṣùgbọ́n mo kìlọ̀ fún wọn pé, “Èétijẹ́ ti ẹ̀yin fi ń sùn ní ẹ̀yin odi ní òru? Bí ẹ̀yìn bá tún dánwò mọ́, èmi yóò fi ọwọ́ líle mú yín.” Láti ọjọ́ náà lọ, wọn kò sì wá ní ọjọ́ ìsinmi mọ́.

And I warned! them and I said! to them why? [are] you passing [the] night before the wall if you will do [it] again a hand I will stretch out on you from the time that not they came on the sabbath.

22 Nígbà náà ni mo pàṣẹ fún àwọn ọmọ Lefi pé kí wọn ya ara wọn sí mímọ́, kí wọn sì ṣọ́ ẹnu ibodè kí a lè pa ọjọ́ ìsinmi mọ́. Tún rántí mi fún èyí, Ọlọ́run mi, kí o sì fi àánú un rẹ hàn fún mi gẹ́gẹ́ bí i títóbi ìfẹ́ ẹ̀ rẹ.

And I said! to the Levites that they will be purifying themselves and coming guarding the gates to keep holy [the] day of the sabbath also this remember! to me O God my and have mercy! on me according to [the] greatness of covenant loyalty your.

23 Ní ọjọ́ wọ̀n-ọn-nì, mo rí àwọn ọkùnrin Juda tí wọ́n fẹ́ àwọn obìnrin láti Aṣdodu, Ammoni àti Moabu.

Also - in the days those I saw the Jews [who] they had married women (Ashdodite Ammonite *Q(k)*) Moabite.

24 Ìdajì àwọn ọmọ wọn ń sọ èdè Aṣdodu tàbí èdè ọ̀kan lára àwọn ènìyàn mìíràn tókù, wọn kò sì mọ bí a ṣe ń sọ èdè Juda.

And children their half [were] speaking Ashdodite and not they [were] knowing to speak [in] Judean and according to [the] language of people and people.

And I contended with them and I cursed them and I struck some of them men and I pulled out beard their and I made take an oath them by God if you will give daughters your to sons their and if you will take any of daughters their for sons your and for yourselves.

26 Kì í ha á ṣe àwọn ìgbéyàwó bí irú èyí ni ọba Solomoni fi dá ẹ̀ṣẹ̀? Láàrín àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè, kò sí ọba kan bí i tirẹ̀. Ọlọ́run rẹ̀ fẹ́ràn rẹ̀, Ọlọ́run sì fi jẹ ọba lórí i gbogbo Israẹli, ṣùgbọ́n àwọn obìnrin àjèjì ti sọ ọ́ sínú òfin ẹ̀ṣẹ̀.

¿ Not on these did he sin Solomon [the] king of Israel and among the nations many not he was a king like him and loved by God his he was and he made him God king over all Israel also him they caused to sin the wives foreign.

27 Ǹjẹ́ ó ha yẹ kí àwa tún gbọ́ báyìí pé ẹ̀yin náà tún ń ṣe àwọn nǹkan tí ó burú jọjọ wọ̀nyí tí ẹ sì ń ṣe aláìṣòótọ́ sí Ọlọ́run wa nípa fífẹ́ àwọn obìnrin àjèjì?”

And to you ¿ is it heard to do all the evil great this to act unfaithfully against God our by marrying wives foreign.

28 Ọ̀kan lára àwọn ọmọ Joiada, ọmọ Eliaṣibu olórí àlùfáà jẹ́ àna Sanballati ará a Horoni. Mo sì lé e jáde kúrò lọ́dọ̀ mi.

And one of [the] sons of Joiada [the] son of Eliashib the priest great [was] a son-in-law of Sanballat the Horonite and I drove away him from with me.
