< Nehemiah 1 >

1 The words of Nehemiah the son of Hacaliah. Now in the month Chislev, in the twentieth year, as I was in Susa the palace,
Amo sia: da Nihemaia (Ha: galaia egefe) amo ea hawa: hamosu olelesa. Adasegesisi da Besia soge amoga hina bagade esalu. Ea ouligisu hou ode20 amola oubi ea dio Gisilefe amoga, na, Nihemaia, na da Besia bisili moilai bai bagade amo Susa, amo ganodini esalebe ba: i.
2 Hanani, one of my brothers, came, he and certain men out of Judah; and I asked them about the Jews who had escaped, who were left of the captivity, and concerning Jerusalem.
Na olalali afae amo ea dio Hana: inai, e amola eno dunu gilisili da Yuda soge fisili, nama doaga: i. Na da Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade ea hou, amola ninia Yu fi musa: mugululi asi, Yuda sogega buhagi, amo ilia hou ilima adole ba: i.
3 They said to me, “The remnant who are left of the captivity there in the province are in great affliction and reproach. The wall of Jerusalem is also broken down, and its gates are burned with fire.”
Ilia da amo hou nama adole i. Musa: mugululi asi dunu mogili da bogoi dagoi. Be mogili da buhagili, Yuda soge ganodini esala, da se bagade nabawane esala. Ga fi dunu gadenene esala da Yu dunu amo higale ba: sa, ilia sia: i. Yelusaleme gagoi dobea amo musa: mugululi sa: i dagoi, amo da bu hame gagoi. Amola logo ga: su musa: laluga nei, amo da bu hame ga: si.
4 When I heard these words, I sat down and wept, and mourned several days; and I fasted and prayed before the God of heaven,
Na da amo sia: nababeba: le, fila sa: ili amola bagadewane dinanu. Eso didia amoga, na da dinanuwane, ha: i mae nawane Godema sia: ne gadolalu.
5 and said, “I beg you, LORD, the God of heaven, the great and awesome God who keeps covenant and loving kindness with those who love him and keep his commandments,
Na da amane sia: ne gadoi, “Hina Gode Hebene ganodini esala! Di da bagadedafa amola ninia Diba: le beda: i bagade. Dia gousa: su, amo Di da Dima asigi amola nabasu dunu amo fidima: ne hamoi, amo Di da mae fisili dawa: lala.
6 let your ear now be attentive and your eyes open, that you may listen to the prayer of your servant which I pray before you at this time, day and night, for the children of Israel your servants, while I confess the sins of the children of Israel which we have sinned against you. Yes, I and my father’s house have sinned.
Hina Gode! Na hou ba: ma amola na sia: ne gadosu nabima! Na da dia fi dunu amo Isala: ili fi dunu amola uda, na da gasi huluane amola eso huluane amoga ili fidima: ne, Dima sia: ne gadolala. Dafawane! Ninia Isala: ili dunu da wadela: le hamoi dagoi. Na amola na aowalali dunu da wadela: i hou hamoi dagoi.
7 We have dealt very corruptly against you, and have not kept the commandments, nor the statutes, nor the ordinances, which you commanded your servant Moses.
Ninia da Dima wadela: i hou hamosu, amola Dia sia: hame nabasu. Ninia Dia sema amo Di da dia hawa: hamosu dunu Mousese ea lafidili ninima i, amoma hame fa: no bobogesu.
8 “Remember, I beg you, the word that you commanded your servant Moses, saying, ‘If you trespass, I will scatter you among the peoples;
Dia da Mousesema sia: i liligi bu dawa: ma, amane, ‘Dilia Isala: ili dunu da Na sia: hame nabasea, Na da dilia fi afagogole, ga fi dunu amo ganodini esaloma: ne sefasimu.
9 but if you return to me, and keep my commandments and do them, though your outcasts were in the uttermost part of the heavens, yet I will gather them from there, and will bring them to the place that I have chosen, to cause my name to dwell there.’
Be amasea, dilia da Nama, Na dilima hamoma: ne sia: i defele Nama bu sinidigisia, Na da dili soge amoga Nama nodone sia: ne gadomusa: Na da ilegei, amo sogega Na da dili bu oule misunu,’ Di da amane sia: i dagoi.
10 “Now these are your servants and your people, whom you have redeemed by your great power and by your strong hand.
Hina Gode! Amo dunu da Dia hawa: hamosu dunu! Ilia da Dia ilegei fi dunu! Di da Dia gasa bagade amoga, amo fi dunu gaga: i dagoi.
11 Lord, I beg you, let your ear be attentive now to the prayer of your servant, and to the prayer of your servants who delight to fear your name; and please prosper your servant today, and grant him mercy in the sight of this man.” Now I was cup bearer to the king.
Amaiba: le, na sia: ne gadosu amola Dia hawa: hamosu dunu eno ilia Dima nodomusa: dawa: , ilia sia: ne gadosu amola nabima. Hina bagade da na sia: noga: le nabima: ne, Di da ea dogo ganodini hawa: hamoma!” na amane sia: ne gadoi. Amo esoga na da Besia hina bagade amo ea waini hano iasu dunu esalu.
