Nehemias 9
1 Ita, iti maikaduapulo ket uppat nga aldaw iti dayta met la a bulan, naguummong dagiti tattao ti Israel ket nagayunarda, nagisuotda iti nakersang a lupot, ken nangikabilda iti dapu kadagiti uloda.
And on the twenty and fourth day of this month were the children of Israel assembled with fasting, and in sackclothes, and with earth upon them.
2 Inlasin dagiti kaputotan ni Israel dagiti bagida manipud kadagiti amin a ganggannaet. Timmakderda sada impudno dagiti basolda ken dagiti dakes nga inar-aramid dagiti kapuonanda.
And the seed of Israel separated themselves from all children of the strangers: and they stood forward and made confession for their sins, and the iniquities of their fathers.
3 Nagtakderda iti ayanda ket tallo nga orasda a nagbasa manipud iti Libro ti Linteg ni Yahweh a Diosda. Tallo nga orasda met a nagipudpudno kadagiti basolda ket nagrukrukbabda kenni Yahweh a Diosda.
And they stood up in their standing-place, and read in the book of the law of the Lord their God the fourth part of the day; and another fourth part they made confession, and prostrated themselves before the Lord their God.
4 Dagiti Levita a da Jesua, Bani, Kadmiel, Sebanias, Bunni, Serebias, Bani ken Kenani ket nagtakderda kadagiti agdan sada nagkararag iti napigsa kenni Yahweh a Diosda.
Then stood up upon the stairs of the Levites, Jeshua' and Bani, Kadmiel, Shebanyah, Bunni, Sherebyah, Bani, and Kenani, and they cried with a loud voice unto the Lord their God.
5 Ket kinuna dagiti Levita a da Jesua, Kadmiel, Bani, Hasabneyas, Serebias, Hodias, Sebanias ken Petahias, “Tumakderkayo ket idaydayawyo ni Yahweh a Diosyo iti agnanayon nga awan inggana.” Idayawda koma ti nadayag a naganmo, ken maitan-ok koma daytoy a nangatngato ngem iti tunggal bendision ken dayaw.
Then said the Levites, Jeshua', and Kadmiel, Bani, Chashabneyah, Sherebyah, Hodiyah, Shebanyah, and Pethachyah, Arise! bless ye the Lord your God from eternity to eternity. And let men bless thy glorious name, which is exalted above all blessing and praise.
6 Sika ni Yahweh. Siksika laeng. Inaramidmo ti langit, dagiti kangangatoan a langit agraman ti amin a buyotda, ti daga ken amin a linaonna, dagiti baybay ken amin a linaonda. Sika ti nangted iti biag kadakuada amin, ket agdaydayaw kenka dagiti amin nga armada ti anghel.
Thou indeed art the Eternal One alone: It is thou that hast made the heavens with all their host, the earth, and all that is upon her, the seas, and all that is in them, and thou givest life to them all; and the host of the heavens bow down before thee.
7 Sika ni Yahweh, ti Dios a nangpili kenni Abram ken nangiruar kenkuana idiay Ur dagiti Caldeo ken nangpanagan kenkuana iti Abraham.
Thou art indeed the Lord the [true] God, who didst choose Abram, and bring him forth out of Ur of the Chaldeans, and change his name to Abraham;
8 Nasarakam ti pusona a napudno iti sangoanam ket nakitulagka nga itedmo kadagiti kaputotanna ti daga dagiti Cananeo, dagiti Heteo, dagiti Amorreo, dagiti Perezeo, dagiti Jebuseo ken dagiti Gergeseo. Tinungpalmo ti karim gapu ta nalintegka.
And thou didst find his heart faithful before thee: and thou madest with him the covenant to give the land of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Emorites, and the Perizittes, and the Jebusites, and the Girgashite—to give it to his seed: and thou hast performed thy words; for thou art righteous.
9 Nakitam ti pannakaparigat dagiti ammami idiay Egipto ket nangngegmo ti asugda idi addada idiay baybay dagiti Runo.
And thou didst see the affliction of our fathers in Egypt, and their cry didst thou hear by the Red Sea;
10 Nangtedka kadagiti pagilasinan ken kadagiti datdatlag a maibusor kenni Faraon, kadagiti amin nga adipenna ken kadagiti amin a tattao iti dagana, ta ammom a nagtignay dagiti Egipcio a sipapalangguad kadagiti Israelita. Ngem nangipasdekka iti nagan nga agpaay kenka nga agtaltalinaed agingga iti daytoy nga aldaw.
And thou didst display signs and wonders on Pharaoh, and on all his servants, and on all the people of his land: for thou knewest that they had dealt presumptuously against them; and thou didst [thus] make thyself a name, as it is this day.
11 Ket ginuduam ti baybay iti sangoananda tapno nakapagdaliasatda iti tengnga ti baybay iti namaga a daga; ken impurruakmo dagiti mangkamkamat kadakuada iti kaaddaleman, a kasla bato a naipurruak iti adalem a danum.
And the sea didst thou divide before them, so that they passed through the midst of the sea on dry land; and their pursuers didst thou throw into the deeps, like a stone in mighty waters.
12 Indalanmo ida babaen iti kasla adigi nga ulep iti aldaw ken kasla adigi nga apuy iti rabii a manglawag iti dalanda tapno makapagdaliasatda babaen iti lawag daytoy.
And by a pillar of cloud didst thou lead them in the day, and by a pillar of fire in the night, to give light unto them on the way whereon they should go.
13 Iti rabaw ti Bantay Sinai, bimmabaka manipud langit ket nakisaoka kadakuada ket intedmo kadakuada dagiti nalinteg a paglintegan ken dagiti pudno a linteg, dagiti naimbag nga alagaden ken dagiti bilin.
Also on mount Sinai camest thou down, and spokest with them from heaven; and thou gavest them upright ordinances, and truthful laws, good statutes and commandments;
14 Impakaammom kadakuada ti intudingmo a nasantoan nga Aldaw a Panaginana, ken intedmo kadakuada dagiti bilin, alagaden ken linteg babaen kenni Moises nga adipenmo.
And thy holy sabbath madest thou known unto them, and commandments, statutes, and a law didst thou enjoin on them, by the hand of Moses thy servant.
15 Intedmo kadakuada ti tinapay manipud langit para iti panagbisinda, ken danum manipud iti bato para iti pannakawawda, ket imbagam kadakuada a sumrekda ket tagikuaenda ti daga nga inkarim nga ited kadakuada.
And bread from heaven didst thou give them for their hunger, and water out of the rock broughtest thou forth for them for their thirst; and thou didst order them to go in to take possession of the land concerning which thou hadst lifted up thy hand to give it unto them.
16 Ngem isuda ken dagiti kapuonantayo ket awan panagraemda, nagsukirda ket saanda nga impangag dagiti bilinmo.
And they and our fathers acted presumptuously, and hardened their neck, and hearkened not to thy commandments.
17 Saanda a dimngeg ken saanda a pinanpanunot ti maipapan kadagiti datdatlag nga inaramidmo kadakuada, ngem nagsukirda ketdi ket iti panagsukirda, nangdutokda iti mangidaulo kadakuada nga agsubli iti pannakatagabuda. Ngem sika ti Dios a mammakawan, managparabur ken manangngaasi, saan a nalaka nga agpungtot ken saan nga agpatingga ti panagayatmo. Saanmo ida binaybay-an.
And they refused to obey, and remembered not thy marvelous deeds which thou hadst done with them; but they hardened their neck, and [spoke of] appointing a chief to return to their bondage, in their rebellion; but thou art a God ready to pardon, gracious and merciful, long-suffering, and abundant in kindness, and forsookest them not.
18 Saanmo ida a binaybay-an uray idi nangsukogda iti sinan-urbon a baka a landok ket kinunada, 'Daytoy ti diosyo a nangiruar kadakayo iti Egipto,' kabayatan iti nakaro a panagtabtabbaawda.
Yea, although they had made for themselves a molten calf, and said, 'This is thy god that hath brought thee up out of Egypt,' and had practised great provocations:
19 O Dios, iti kinamanangngaasim, saanmo ida a binaybay-an idiay let-ang. Saan ida a pinanawan ti kasla adigi nga ulep a mangidalan kadakuada iti aldaw ken uray pay ti kasla adigi nga apuy iti rabii a nanglawag kadakuada iti dalan a pagnaanda.
Yet in thy abundant mercies didst thou not forsake them in the wilderness: the pillar of cloud departed not from them by day, to lead them on the way; nor the pillar of fire by night, to give them light on the way whereon they should go.
20 Intedmo kadakuada ti naimbag nga Espiritum a mangisuro kadakuada, saanmo nga impaidam ti manam kadagiti ngiwatda ken inikkam ida ti danum para iti pannakawawda.
And thy good spirit thou gavest to make them intelligent, and thy manna thou withheldest not from their mouth, and water thou gavest them for their thirst.
21 Iti uppat a pulo a tawen, impaaymo ti masapulda idiay let-ang, ket saanda a nagkurang iti aniaman. Saan a dimmaan dagiti pagan-anayda ken saan a limteg dagiti saksakada.
And forty years didst thou provide for them in the wilderness; they lacked nothing; their clothes did not wear out; and their feet swelled not.
22 Inikkam ida kadagiti pagarian ken kadagiti tattao, ket insaadmo ida iti daga iti tunggal adayo a beddeng. Isu a tinagikuada ti daga ni Sihon nga ari ti Hesbon ken ti daga ni Og nga ari ti Basan.
Thou gavest them also kingdoms and nations, which thou didst divide into various corners: and they took possession of the land of Sichon, even the land of the king of Cheshbon, and the land of 'Og the king of Bashan.
23 Pinaadum dagiti annakda a kas kaadu dagiti bituen iti langit, ket impanmo ida iti daga. Imbagam kadagiti kapuonanda a sumrekda ket tagikuaenda daytoy.
And their children didst thou multiply like the stars of heaven, and then broughtest them into the land, concerning which thou hadst ordered their fathers to enter in to take possession of it.
24 Isu a simrek dagiti tattao ket tinagikuada ti daga, linakubmo iti sangoananda dagiti Cananeo nga agnanaed iti dayta a daga. Impaimam dagiti Cananeo kadagiti Israelita, agraman dagiti arida ken dagiti tattao iti dayta a daga, tapno mabalin nga aramiden ti Israel ti kayatda nga aramiden kadakuada.
And the children entered in and took possession of the land; and thou didst humble before them the inhabitants of the land, the Cana'anites, and gavest them up into their hands, with their kings, and the nations of the land, that they might do with them according to their pleasure.
25 Sinakupda dagiti nasarikedkedan a siudad ken ti nadam-eg a daga, ket sinakupda dagiti babbalay a napnoan kadagiti amin nga agkakaimbag a banbanag, dagiti bubon a nakalin, dagiti kaubasan, dagiti kaoliboan ken dagiti kayo nga agbunga iti nawadwad. Isu a nanganda, nabsogda, napnekda ken nagrag-oda iti dakkel a kinaimbagmo.
And they captured fortified cities, and a fat soil; and they took possession of houses full of all good things, hewn-out wells, vineyards, and olive-yards, and fruit trees in abundance; and they ate, and were satisfied, and became fat, and delighted themselves in thy great goodness.
26 Kalpasanna, nagsukir ken nagrebeldeda kenka. Impalladawda ti lintegmo kadagiti likudda. Pinapatayda dagiti propetam a nangballaag kadakuada nga agsublida kenka, ken napalalo ti panagtabbaawda.
Then became they disobedient, and rebelled against thee, and cast thy law behind their back, and they slew thy prophets who had warned them to bring them back unto thee, and they practised great provocations.
27 Isu nga impaimam ida kadagiti kabusorda, a nangparigat kadakuada. Ket iti tiempo ti panagsagabada, immasugda kenka ket impangagmo ida manipud langit ken namin-adum ida nga inispal iti ima dagiti kabusorda gapu iti dakkel a kaasim.
Thereupon thou gavest them up into the hand of their adversaries, who oppressed them: and in the time of their distress they used to cry unto thee, and thou ever heardest them from heaven; and according to thy abundant mercies thou wast wont to give them helpers, who helped them out of the hand of their adversaries.
28 Ngem kalpasan a maka-inanada, nagaramidda manen iti dakes iti sagoanam ket binaybay-am ida iti ima dagiti kabusorda, isu nga inturayan ida dagiti kabusorda. Ngem idi nagsublida ket immasugda kenka, dinengngegmo ida manipud langit ket adu a daras nga inispalmo ida gapu iti kinamanangngaasim.
But when [once more] they had rest, they did again evil before thee: wherefore thou didst leave them in the hand of their enemies, so that they had dominion over them; and when they returned, and cried unto thee, thou wast wont to hear them from heaven, and thou didst ever deliver them according to thy mercies many times.
29 Binallaagam ida tapno agsublida manen iti lintegmo. Ngem nagbalinda a napalangguad ken saanda nga impangag dagiti bilinmo. Nagbasolda kadagiti paglintegam a mangted iti biag iti siasinoman nga agtultulnog kadagitoy. Saanda a nagtulnog kadagitoy ngem ketdi saanda nga impangag dagitoy, ket nagkedkedda uray laeng koma dumngeg kadagitoy.
And thou gavest them warning to bring them back unto thy law: yet they acted presumptuously, and hearkened not unto thy commandments, and sinned against thy ordinances, which a man is to do that he may live through them: and they rendered their shoulder rebellious, and hardened their neck, and would not hear.
30 Iti adu a tawtawen, inanusam ken binallaagam ida babaen iti Espiritum babaen kadagiti propetam. Ngem saanda latta a dimngeg. Isu nga impaimam ida kadagiti tattao iti aglawlawda.
Yet thou gavest them indulgence many years, and didst warn them through thy spirit by means of thy prophets; but they gave no ear: therefore didst thou give them up into the hand of the nations of the lands.
31 Ngem iti naindaklan a kaasim, saanmo ida a ginibus wenno linaksid, ta managparabur ken manangngaasika a Dios.
Yet in thy abundant mercies hast thou not made an entire end of them, and thou hast not forsaken them; for a gracious and merciful God art thou.
32 Ita ngarud O Diosmi, ti natan-ok, ti mannakabalin, ken ti nakaskasdaaw a Dios, a mangsalsalimetmet iti tulag ken iti awan patinggana nga ayatna, saanmo koma a pagparangen a bassit laeng daytoy a pakarigatan nga immay kadakami, kadagiti arimi, kadagiti pangulomi, kadagiti padimi, kadagiti propetami, kadagiti kapuonanmi ken kadagiti amin a tattaom manipud pay iti tiempo dagiti ari ti Asiria agingga ita.
And now, our God, the great, the mighty, and the terrible God, who keepest the covenant and kindness, let not be esteemed as little before thee all the hardship that hath befallen us, on our kings, on our princes, and on our priests, and on our prophets, and on our fathers, and on all thy people, from the days of the kings of Assyria until this day.
33 Nalintegka iti amin a banbanag nga immay kadakami, ta napudno ket nagtignaykami a sidadangkes.
Nevertheless thou art righteous in all that is come over us; for thou hast acted [according to] truth, but we have done wickedly.
34 Saan a sinalimetmetan dagiti arimi, dagiti panguloenmi, dagiti padi, ken dagiti kapuonanmi ti lintegmo, saanda pay nga impangag dagiti bilinmo wenno ti napudno a tulagmo nga isu ti nangballaagam kadakuada.
Also our kings, our priests, and our fathers have not executed thy law, and have not listened unto thy commandments and thy testimonies, wherewith thou didst warn them.
35 Uray iti bukodda a pagarian, kabayatan a ragragsakenda ti naindaklan a kinaimbagmo, iti nalawa ken nadam-eg a daga nga intedmo kadakuada, saanda a nagserbi kenka wenno saanda latta a tinallikudan dagiti dakes a wagasda.
But they in their kingdom, and in thy abundant goodness which thou hadst given unto them, and in the ample and fat land which thou hadst given up before them, did indeed not serve thee, and they turned not away from their wicked deeds.
36 Ita, tagabukamin iti daga nga intedmo a ragragsaken dagiti kapuonanmi, dagiti bunga ken dagiti naiimbag a sagsagut daytoy, ket adtoy, tagabukami!
Behold, we are this day servants: and as regardeth the land that thou gavest unto our fathers to eat its fruit and its good things, behold, we are servants in it;
37 Maited ti nawadwad nga apit iti dagami kadagiti ari nga insaadmo kadakami gapu kadagiti basolmi. Iturturayandakami ken dagiti tarakenmi a kas iti pagragsakanda. Napalalo ti pannakaparigatmi.
And it yieldeth its products in abundance for the kings whom thou hast set over us because of our sins; also over our bodies have they dominion, and over our cattle [also] at their pleasure, and we are in great distress.
38 Gapu amin kadagitoy, mangaramidkami iti natibker a katulagan nga isuratmi. Nakasurat iti naselioan a kasuratan dagiti nagan dagiti prinsipe, dagiti Levita ken dagiti papadimi.”
And because of all this, we make a faithful covenant, and write it down; and on the sealed document are our princes, our Levites, and our priests.
