Nexemyaah 6

1 Haddaba markii Sanballad iyo Toobiyaah iyo Geshem kii Carabka ahaa, iyo cadaawayaashayadii kale loo sheegay inaan derbigii dhisay iyo inaan innaba daldalool lagu arag (in kastoo wakhtigaas aanan weli qotomin albaabbadii irdaha),

And it came to pass, when Sanaballat, and Tobias, and Gossem the Arabian, and the rest of our enemies, heard that I had built the wall, and that there was no breach left in it, (though at that time I had not set up the doors in the gates, )

2 ayay Sanballad iyo Geshem ii soo cid direen oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Kaalay oo aan ku wada kulanno tuulooyinka bannaanka Oonoo ku yaal middood. Laakiinse waxay ku fikireen inay belaayo igu sameeyaan.

Sanaballat and Gossem Rent to me, saying: Come, and let us make a league together in the villages, in the plain of Ono. But they thought to do me mischief.

3 Oo waxaan u diray wargeeyayaal, oo ku idhi, Waxaan samaynayaa shuqul weyn oo sidaas daraaddeed ma iman karo. Bal maxaa shuqulku u joogsanayaa markaan ka tago oo aan idiin imaado?

And I sent messengers to them, saying: I am doing a great work, and I cannot come down, lest it be neglected whilst I come, and go down to you.

4 Oo fartiin caynkaas ah ayay afar jeer ii soo direen; oo anna isla sidii baan ugu jawaabay.

And they sent to me according to this word, four times: and I answered them after the same manner.

5 Oo haddana isla sidaas oo kale Sanballad wuxuu markii shanaad ii soo diray midiidinkiisii oo gacanta ku sida warqad furan.

And Sanaballat sent his servant to me the fifth time according to the former word, and he had a letter in his hand written in this manner:

6 Oo waxaa ku qornaa, Waxaa quruumaha dhexdooda laga sheegay, Gashmuuna uu leeyahay, in adiga iyo Yuhuudduba aad ku talo jirtaan inaad fallaagowdaan, oo waa taas daraaddeed waxaad derbiga u dhisaysaa, oo sida waafaqsan erayadan la soo sheegay waxaad doonaysaa inaad boqor u ahaatid.

It is reported amongst the Gentiles, and Gossem hath said it, that thou and the Jews think to rebel, and therefore thou buildest the wall, and hast a mind to set thyself king over them: for which end

7 Oo weliba waxaad dooratay nebiyo si ay wax kugu saabsan dadka Yeruusaalem ugu wacdiyaan, iyagoo leh, Dalka Yahuudah waxaa jooga boqor. Haddaba erayadan waxaa loo sheegi doonaa boqorka. Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed kaalay, oo aan tashannee.

Thou hast also set up prophets, to preach of thee at Jerusalem, saying: There is a king in Judea. The king will hear of these things: therefore come now, that we may take counsel together.

8 Markaasaan u cid diray oo ku idhi, Waxaad leedahay oo kale halkan innaba laguma samayn, laakiinse adigaa qalbigaaga ka soo hindisay.

And I sent to them, saying: There is no such thing done as thou sayest: but thou feignest these things out of thy own heart.

9 Waayo, dhammaantood waxay doonayeen inay na cabsiiyaan, oo waxay isyidhaahdeen, Shuqulkay ka daali doonaan, mana dhammayn doonaan. Laakiinse, Ilaahow, xoog ii yeel.

For all these men thought to frighten us, thinking that our hands would cease from the work, and that we would leave off. Wherefore I strengthened my hands the more:

10 Markaasaan tegey gurigii Shemacyaah ina Delaayaah oo ahaa ina Meheetabeel oo xidhnaa; oo wuxuu igu yidhi, Guriga Rabbiga oo ah macbudka dhexdiisa aan ku kulanno, oo aan xidhanno albaabbada macbudka, waayo, iyagu waxay u iman doonaan inay ku dilaan. Haah, oo habeennimada ayay u soo iman doonaan inay ku dilaan.

And I went into the house of Samaia the son of Delaia, the son of Metabeel privately. And he said: Let us consult together in the house of God in the midst of the temple: and let us shut the doors of the temple, for they will come to kill thee, and in the night they will come to slay thee.

11 Aniguse waxaan ku idhi, Nin anigoo kale ahu miyuu cararaa? Bal waase kee, kan aniga ila mid ah oo macbudka u geli lahaa inuu naftiisa ku badbaadiyo? Geli maayo.

And I said: Should such a man as I Bee? and who is there that being as I am, would go into the temple, to save his life? I will not go in.

12 Markaasaan gartay inaan Ilaah isaga soo dirin, laakiinse hadal iga gees ah ayuu ugu hadlay sidii nebi oo kale, waayo, waxaa soo kiraystay Toobiyaah iyo Sanballad.

And I understood that God had not sent him, but that he had spoken to me as if he had been prophesying, and Tobias, and Sanaballat had hired him.

13 Oo taas aawadeed baa isaga loo soo kiraystay inaan cabsado oo saas yeelo oo aan dembaabo, iyo inay iyagu sabab u helaan war xun si ay iigu ceebeeyaan.

For he had taken money, that I being afraid should do this thing, and sin, and they might have some evil to upbraid me withal.

14 Haddaba Ilaahayow, sida shuqulladoodu yihiin u xusuuso Toobiyaah iyo Sanballad iyo weliba nebiyaddii Noocadyaah iyo nebiyadii kale oo damcay inay i cabsigeliyaan.

Remember me, O Lord, for Tobias and Sanaballat, according to their works of this kind: and Noadias the prophet, and the rest of the prophets that would have put me in fear.

15 Oo sidaasaa derbigii laba iyo konton maalmood loogu dhammeeyey bishii Eluul maalinteedii shan iyo labaatanaad.

But the wall was finished the five and twentieth day of the month of Elul, in two and fifty days.

16 Oo markii cadaawayaashayadii oo dhammu ay taas maqleen ayay kulli quruumihii hareerahayaga ku wareegsanaa oo dhammu wada cabsadeen, oo aad bay u ceeboobeen, waayo, waxay garteen in shuqulkan laga sameeyey Ilaahayaga xaggiisa.

And it came to pass when all our enemies heard of it, that all nations which were round about us, were afraid, and were cast down within themselves, for they perceived that this work was the work of God.

17 Oo weliba waagaas kuwii gobta ahaa oo dalka Yahuudah warqado badan bay u direen Toobiyaah, oo iyagana waxaa u yimid warqadihii Toobiyaah.

Moreover in those days many letters were sent by the principal men of the Jews to Tobias, and from Tobias there came letters to them.

18 Waayo, dalka Yahuudah waxaa joogay kuwo badan oo isaga u dhaartay, maxaa yeelay, isaga waxaa soddog u ahaa Shekaanyaah ina Aarax; oo wiilkiisii Yehooxaanaanna wuxuu guursaday Meshullaam ina Berekyaah gabadhiisii.

For there were many in Judea sworn to him, because he was the son in law of Sechenias the son of Area, and Johanan his son had taken to wife the daughter of Mosollam the son of Barachias.

19 Oo weliba waxay hortayda kaga hadleen falimihiisii wanaagsanaa, oo hadalkaygana isagay u sheegeen. Toobiyaahna warqaduu iigu soo diray inuu i cabsiiyo.

And they praised him also before me, and they related my words to him: And Tobias sent letters to put me in fear.
