Now when the wall was built and I had set up the doors, and the gatekeepers and the singers and the Levites were appointed,
2 Enyefere m ọrụ ilekọta Jerusalem nʼaka nwanne m nwoke bụ Hanani, ya na Hananaya onye bụ onyeisi ụlọ ukwu ahụ e wusiri ike, nʼihi na ọ bụ nwoke na-ekwu eziokwu, bụrụkwa onye na-atụ egwu Chineke karịa ọtụtụ ndị ọzọ.
I put my brother Hanani, and Hananiah the governor of the fortress, in charge of Jerusalem; for he was a faithful man and feared God above many.
3 Agwara m ha, “Na-emeghenụ ọnụ ụzọ ama naanị mgbe chi bọziri nke ọma. Kpọchiekwa ha mgbe ndị nche ka nọ na nche. Họpụtakwanụ ndị bi na Jerusalem ka ha bụrụ ndị nche. Ụfọdụ ga-eche nʼebe a họpụtara ha, ụfọdụ ga-eche nʼakụkụ ụlọ nke aka ha.”
I said to them, “Do not let the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun is hot; and while they stand guard, let them shut the doors, and you bar them; and appoint watches of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, everyone in his watch, with everyone near his house.”
4 Nʼoge a obodo ahụ buru ibu dịkwa mbara, ma ndị bi nʼime ya dị ole na ole nʼọnụọgụgụ, ụlọ ndị dị nʼime ya bụkwa ihe ewugharịbeghị.
Now the city was wide and large; but the people were few therein, and the houses were not built.
5 Ya mere Chineke m tinyere ya nʼobi m ka m chịkọta ndị niile a na-asọpụrụ, ndị ọchịchị, na ndị niile bi nʼobodo, maka idebanye aha nʼakwụkwọ ezinaụlọ nʼezinaụlọ. Achọtara m ebe e depụtara usoro ndị mmadụ niile bụ ụzọ lọta Juda nʼoge gara aga. Nke a bụ ihe m chọpụtara edere nʼime ya:
My God put into my heart to gather together the nobles, and the rulers, and the people, that they might be listed by genealogy. I found the book of the genealogy of those who came up at the first, and I found this written in it:
6 Ndị a bụ ndị obodo niile a na-achị achị, bụ ndị sitere na ndọta nʼagha nke Nebukadneza, eze Babilọn, onye dọtara ha nʼagha buru ha laa nʼala ọzọ. Ha lọghachitere na Jerusalem nakwa Juda, onye ọbụla nʼobodo nke aka ya.
