Nehemiah 9
1 Chuche lha nisomni le ni li nin, mipi akikhom kit’un, tuchung hin an angol’un khaodip pon asil’un, aluchunguva vut akinu’uvin ahi.
In the foure and twentieth day of this moneth the children of Israel were assembled with fasting, and with sackecloth, and earth vpon them.
2 Israel chilhah ho jouse gamchom miho a konin akidal se uvin chule amaho chonset nale apu apateu chonset na aphongdoh tauvin ahi.
(And they that were of the seede of Israel were separated from all the strangers) and they stoode and confessed their sinnes and the iniquities of their fathers.
3 Pakai Pathen danbu a kona akisim phong tengleh, nidan thum sungin adinnau munah ading chahkheh jiuvin ahi. Chujou tengleh nidan thum ma achonset nau phondoh nale Pakai a Pathen’u chibai bohnan amangun ahi.
And they stood vp in their place and read in the booke of the Lawe of the Lord their GOD foure times on the day, and they confessed and worshipped the Lord their God foure times.
4 Levite - Jeshua, Bani, Kadmiel, Shebaniah, Bunni, Sherebiah, Bani, chuleh Kenani- hichenghi Levite kalbia adingun Pakai a Pathen u kom’ah othong sangtah in asamun apentho jengun ahi.
Then stoode vp vpon the staires of the Leuites Ieshua, and Bani, Kadmiel, Shebaniah, Bunni, Sherebiah, Bani, and Chenani, and cryed with a loud voyce vnto the Lord their God.
5 Chujouchun Levite lamkaiho chu: Joshua, Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabneiah, Sherebiah, Hodiah, Shebaniah, chule Pethahiah chun mipi ho chu ahin sam in, hiti hin ajah uvah ahinsei taove: “Dingdoh uvin lang Pakai na Pathen’u thangvah un, ajeh chu ama tonsot tonsotna hingjing jeng ahi,” atiuve. Hijouchun amaho ataovun, “Namin loupi hi vahchoiyin umhen! Phatthei bohna le thangvahna ho jouse chunga choisangin umhen!” atiuve.
And the Leuites said, euen Ieshua and Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabniah, Sherebiah, Hodiiah, Shebaniah and Pethahiah, Stande vp, and praise the Lord your God for euer, and euer, and let them praise thy glorious Name, O God, which excelleth aboue all thankesgiuing and praise.
6 “Nangma changseh bou Pakai nahi. Nangin vanho leh vanthamjol chuleh ahsi jouse nasem ahi. Nangin leiset le twikhanglen chuleh asunga umho jouse nasem ahi. Nangin aboncha hi nahoibit ahin vanna vantilte jousen chibai naboh un ahi.”
Thou art Lord alone: thou hast made heauen, and the heauen of all heauens, with all their hoste, the earth, and all things that are therein, the seas, and al that are in them, and thou preseruest them all, and the host of the heauen worshippeth thee.
7 “Nangma hi Pakai Pathen nahin Ur gam'a um Chaldea mite lah a kona Abram nana lhendoh a nahin puidoh a, amin jong Abraham a nakhel peh ahi.”
Thou art, O Lord, the God, that hast chosen Abram, and broughtest him out of Vr in Caldea, and madest his name Abraham,
8 “Aman kitah na ana subulhit jeh'in Canaan mite, Hit mite, Amon mite, Periz mite, Jebus mite, chule Gargash mite, gamhi amaleh achilhahte peh dingin kitepna nana neipi in ahi. Chuleh nangin nakitepna bangin nana tongdoh in ahi. Ajehchu nangma hi aseidohsa thuchenga kitah jing jenga nahi.”
And foundest his heart faithful before thee, and madest a couenant with him, to giue vnto his seede the lande of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, and Perizzites, and Iebusites, and Girgashites, and hast performed thy wordes, because thou art iust.
9 “Nangin kapu kapateu Egypt gam'a aum laiyuva agenthei nau nana mupeh in, chuleh twikhanglen panga akanao nangaipeh in ahi.”
Thou hast also considered the affliction of our fathers in Egypt, and heard their cry by the red Sea,
10 “Hitichun kapu kapateu anabol genthei jeh’un nangman Pharaoh leh avaihomho chuleh amipite dounan melchihna thilkidang tah tah nana boldoh in ahi.”
And shewed tokens and wonders vpon Pharaoh, and on all his seruants, and on all the people of his land: for thou knewest that they dealt proudely against them: therefore thou madest thee a Name, as appeareth this day.
11 “Nangman twikhanglen chu nana homkhen in namite tolgo’a lam nana jotsah in ahi. Chule nangman agalmiteu chu twikhanglen sunga nana lehlut’in ahi. Chujongle amaho chu twipi noilanga song bangin analhum mang jengun ahi.”
For thou didest breake vp the Sea before them, and they went through the middes of the Sea on dry lande: and those that pursued them, hast thou cast into the bottomes as a stone, in the mightie waters:
12 “Nangman kapu kapateu chu sun tengleh meilom in nana puiyin, jan tengleh meikong lomin nana puiyin, alampi diu nana musah jingin ahi.”
And leddest them in the day with a pillar of a cloude, and in the night with a pillar of fire to giue them light in the way that they went.
13 “Chule nangma Sinai molsang chunga nahung kumlhan chuleh vanna konin nahin seiyin ahi, che na daan le thuhil dihtah tah nanapen chuleh thupeh leh thugahna hoitah tah nana pen ahi.”
Thou camest downe also vpon mount Sinai, and spakest vnto them from heauen, and gauest them right iudgements, and true lawes, ordinances and good commandements,
14 “Chule nangman nachol ngah nitheng chungchang hilchet na jong nana pen chule nangman nalhachapa Mose mangchan nathupeh ho le nathu gah na chuleh nathuhil ho anit diuvin nana seipeh in ahi.”
And declaredst vnto them thine holy Sabbath, and commandedst them precepts, and ordinances, and lawes, by the hande of Moses thy seruant:
15 “Chuti chun amaho agil’u akel tengleh van'a konin changlhah nana pen; adangchah tengule songpia konin twi napen ahi; Nangin peh dinga nana tep peh gamho alokhum diuvin thupeh jong nana pen ahi.”
And gauest them bread from heauen for their hunger, and broughtest forth water for them out of the rocke for their thirst: and promisedst them that they shoulde goe in, and take possession of the land: for the which thou haddest lift vp thine hand for to giue them.
16 “Ahinlah kapu kapateu chu ana kiletsah’un chuleh ana louchal’un ahi, chuleh nathupeh chu ana nahsah pouvin ahi.”
But they and our fathers behaued them selues proudely, and hardened their neck, so that they hearkened not vnto thy commandements,
17 “Amaho nathua nun ding ana nom pouvin, chuleh amaho dinga thilkidang nana bolpeh ho ana geldoh jitapouvin ahi. Chusangin alouchal’un Egypt’a asoh channa languva le puikit dingin lamkai ana kilhen doh’un ahi! Ahiyeng vang'in nangma hi mi ngaidam hat, milungset them le mikhoto them, lunghang vah lou chuleh ngailut na dimset Pathen nahi.”
But refused to obey, and would not remember thy marueilous works that thou haddest done for them, but hardened their neckes, and had in their heads to returne to their bondage by their rebellion: but thou, O God of mercies, gratious and full of compassion, of long suffring and of great mercie, yet forsookest them not.
18 “Amahon bongnou tobang milim semthu ana kisem doh’uva chuleh hitia ana seiyuva, hiche hi na Pathen’u Egypt a kona nahin puidoh pao chu ahi anatiuvin, hitobang tah hin Pathen taitom na chu ana neitaovin ahi.”
Moreouer, when they made them a molten calfe (and said, This is thy God that brought thee vp out of the land of Egypt) and committed great blasphemies,
19 “Ahiyeng vang'in na mikhoto na alet jeh in nangin gamthip gam'a chun nana dalha pon ahi. Suntengleh meilom in napuiyin, jantengleh mei kongin napui jing nalaiyin ahi.”
Yet thou for thy great mercies forsookest them not in the wildernesse: the pillar of the cloude departed not from them by day to leade them the way, neither the pillar of fire by night, to shew them light, and the way whereby they should goe.
20 “Naphat na Lhagao chu mangchan nana hiljing nalaiyin, agilkel tengule aneh diuvin vanna konin Manna napen adangchah tengule adon diu twi nape jingin ahi.
Thou gauest also thy good Spirite to instruct them, and withheldest not thy MAN from their mouth, and gauest them water for their thirst.
21 “Kum somli sungin gamthip noiya nana khoukhah in, chuleh imacha lhahsam na anatoh khapouvin ahi. Aponsil’u jong asepon chuleh akengu jong ana napon ahi.”
Thou didest also feede them fourtie yeres in ye wildernes: they lacked nothing: their clothes waxed not old, and their feete swelled not.
22 “Chutengleh nangin kapu kapateu chu lenggam hole namdang ho chunga galjona nanapen chuleh namite hi gamsung ningkoi jousea nana koijin ahi. Amahon Heshbon lengpa Sihon toh Bashan lengpa Og gam jong anala uvin ahi.”
And thou gauest them kingdomes and people, and scatteredst them into corners: so they possessed the land of Sihon and the land of ye King of Heshbon, and the land of Og King of Bashan.
23 “Nangman achilhahteu chu ahsi jat naphah sahin apu apateu nana teppeh agama chun napui lutin ahi.”
And thou diddest multiplie their children, like the starres of the heauen, and broughtest them into the lande, whereof thou haddest spoken vnto their fathers, that they should goe, and possesse it.
24 “Amaho analut’un agamu analah peh’un ahi; chule nangman nam pumpi amasanguva nana sunem in ahi. Chule gamsunga ana cheng Canaan mite jeng jong thaneilou bangin nana lhan ahi! Hitichun namiten hiche nam ho hi aleng teu pumin anop nop ana lotauvin ahi.”
So the children went in, and possessed the lande, and thou subduedst before them the inhabitants of the lande, euen the Canaanites, and gauest them into their handes, with their Kings and the people of the lande, that they might do with them what they would.
25 “Kapu kapateuvin, kulpi kigen khum akhopi ho ahin, agam phalai jouseu ahin, analah peh’un ahi. Chule thil le lo phatah tah dimset in ho jong atou phauvin, twikul kigeihomsa hole lengpilei chuleh OIive thinglei le theiphung tamtah alahpeh’un ahi. Hitichun amahon lung nachim set’in athaodoh tokah seuvin aneuvin naphatthei bohna lhingset’a ana kivah’un ahi.”
And they tooke their strong cities and the fat lande, and possessed houses, full of all goods, cisternes digged out, vineyardes, and oliues, and trees for foode in abundance, and they did eate, and were filled, and became fat, and liued in pleasure through thy great goodnesse.
26 “Ahiyeng vang'in amaho ana louchal’un, chuleh nangma dounan ana kiphin nalaiyuvin ahi; chule nadanthu ana nungsun’un, nathemgao ten na-henga hung kile dinga ana gihsal jeh un ana that gam’un, chule nangma dounan thet um tahtah thil anabol tauvin ahi.”
Yet they were disobedient, and rebelled against thee, and cast thy Lawe behinde their backes, and slewe thy Prophets (which protested among them to turne them vnto thee) and committed great blasphemies.
27 “Hijeh chun nangman agalmiteu koma nana pedohjin, amahon ana sugenthei jiuvin ahi. Ahivangin amahon athoh gimuva nakoma ahung tao tengule nangman vanna konin ataonao nangai peh kit jin; chule nami khoto na jal’in nangin ahuhdoh diu nasolpeh kityin, amahon agal miuva konin aga huhdoh juivin ahi.”
Therefore thou deliueredst them into the hande of their enemies that vexed them: yet in the time of their affliction, when they cryed vnto thee, thou heardest them from the heauen, and through thy great mercies thou gauest them sauiours, who saued them out of the hande of their aduersaries.
28 “Ahinlah amahon olna ahin muphat phat’ule avelin nangma mitmun thilse ahin bol kit jiuvin; chuleh nangin agal mihou noiyah nasunem kit jin ahi. Ahiyeng vang'in amahon kap pum puma panpi ngaicha a nangma kom ahinbel tengule vana konin ataonao nahin sanpeh kitjin ahi. Chuti chun nami khoto na kidangtah jal'in nangin avel vel in nahuhdoh kit jin ahi.”
But when they had rest, they returned to doe euill before thee: therefore leftest thou them in the hande of their enemies, so that they had the dominion ouer them, yet when they conuerted and cryed vnto thee, thou heardest them from heauen, and deliueredst them according to thy great mercies many times,
29 “Nangman na danthua ahung kilehei kitna diuvin nagih saljin ahinla amaho akiletsah un, alouchal’un, nathupeh anah sahmo jiuvin ahi. Chule na danthu ho hi ajuiju leh ahindoh jeng theina diu jong ajui nom pouvin ahi; amaho alouchal’un nangma nanung ngat’un nathu angai nom pouvin ahi.”
And protestedst among them that thou mightest bring them againe vnto thy Lawe: but they behaued them selues proudely, and hearkened not vnto thy commandements, but sinned against thy iudgements (which a man should doe and liue in them) and pulled away the shoulder, and were stiffenecked, and woulde not heare.
30 “Na mingailut na jal’in kum hijat pi hi nahin khongaiyin ahi; chule nangman na Lhagao Theng nahin sol in, aman themgao ho mangchan agihsal sahjin ahi. Ahinla amahon anahsah deh jipouve! Hijeh chun nangman agamsung miho khutna gal nalel sahjin ahi.”
Yet thou diddest forbeare them many yeeres, and protestedst among them by thy Spirite, euen by the hande of thy Prophets, but they woulde not heare: therefore gauest thou them into the hande of the people of the lands.
31 Ahinlah na mikhoto na anat sat jeh in amaho chu nasu mangpai deh pon chule nadonda deh pon ahi. Itobanga lungset them leh khoto them nahi hitam?”
Yet for thy great mercies thou hast not consumed them, neither forsaken them: for thou art a gracious and mercifull God.
32 “Tun vang ka Pathen’u loupi tah leh thahattah chuleh gimneitah ami ngailut na longlou puma akitepna nit jing Pathen, kathoh gimnao hi nahsah mon neikoi peh hihbeh’un; ajeh chu Assyria lengten eichotpha uva pat tuni geihin keiho le ka lengteu, kalamkai teu, ka themputeu, le kapu kapateu, namite ho jouse chunga hin hahsat na nasatah achutan ahi.”
Nowe therefore our God, thou great God, mightie and terrible, that keepest couenant and mercie, let not all the affliction that hath come vnto vs, seeme a litle before thee, that is, to our Kings, to our princes, and to our Priests, and to our Prophets, and to our fathers, and to all thy people since the time of the Kings of Asshur vnto this day.
33 “Nei-engbol chan’un nangma hi nadih jinge, chule keiho kachonset val jeh uvin nangman kachan diuva kilom bep neipeh jiu ahi.”
Surely thou art iust in all that is come vpon vs: for thou hast dealt truely, but we haue done wickedly.
34 “Kaleng teu, ka lamkaiteu, ka themputeu, kapu kapate uvin na daan anit pouvin, na daan thupeh leh nagihsal na jong anahsah pouvin ahi.”
And our kings and our princes, our Priests and our fathers haue not done thy Lawe, nor regarded thy commandements nor thy protestations, wherewith thou hast protested among them.
35 “Amahon lenggam tum aneiyun, nangman naphat naho nabuhlhah khum vangun amahon nangma najen pouve; chule nangman gampha tah leh gam lentah napen ahinlah amahon athilse bolnauva konin ahung kilehei nom deh pouve.”
And they haue not serued thee in their kingdome, and in thy great goodnesse that thou shewedst vnto them, and in the large and fat lande which thou diddest set before them, and haue not conuerted from their euill workes.
36 “Hijeh chun tuni kho hin, nangin kapu kapa teuvin nengtah le lungmong tah a anehdiu gampha tah napeh na muna hin sohchangin kaum tauve! Hiche gampha lai tah a hin kasoh changtauve.”
Beholde, we are seruants this day, and the lande that thou gauest vnto our fathers, to eate the fruite thereof, and the goodnesse thereof, beholde, we are seruants therein.
37 “Kachonset jeh’uvin hiche gamsung sohdoh ga phatah tah ho hi nangin keiho chunga vaihom dinga na tun lengho khut nah achugam tan ahi; chule amahon keiho chungleh kagancha hou chunga tha aneitauve. Chujongle amahon adei deiyin eimangchauvin keiho kagenthei lheh jengtauve,” atiuvin ahi.
And it yeeldeth much fruit vnto the kings whom thou hast set ouer vs, because of our sinnes: and they haue dominion ouer our bodyes and ouer our cattell at their pleasure, and we are in great affliction.
38 Hichun mipihon adonbut’un, “Hiche chung changa hin keihon kitepna giltah kaneiyun, hichu kajih lut’un ahi. Hiche mohor kinam khum thulhuhna lekha chunga hin ka lamkaiteu, Levite, chuleh kathempuhou min achongin ahi,” atiuvin ahi.
Now because of all this we make a sure couenant, and write it, and our princes, our Leuites and our Priestes seale vnto it.
