Nehemiya 4:1-23
4 Chelili tuhu Sambalati+ atiyi nindi tunakutuñulula mpwembu, wazuwili nikuhila* nankashi, nawa watwalekelihu kusupisha aYudeya.
2 Nawa iku wudi hamu nawalunda nindi ninjita yaSamariya, wahosheli nindi: Indi awa aYudeya azeya anakwiladi? Akuzata iwu mudimu nkawawu tahindi? Akulambula nyilambu? Komana akumanisha iwu mudimu mwifuku dimu? Komana akutwesha kubalumuna malola asukuma adi hanyilumba yanswadi ekali neyi chadiñawu hakusambila?+
3 Dichi Tobaya+ mwini Amoni+ wemeni kwakwihi nayena, wahosheli nindi: “Hela neyi mumbu yakandama hampwembu yamalola yinakutuñawu, yikushikena dakuhumuka.”
4 Eyi Nzambi yetu, tiyaku, muloña anakutusawula,+ ilishaku kasawuntu kawu kayifuntili awenawu+ nawa wuyihani mwituña dawunkoli neyi yuma yakupuupa.
5 Nawa bayi wubuta muloña wawu hela kujima nshidi yawu kumesu eyiku,+ muloña anayihoshi antuñi mazu akasawuntu.
6 Dichi twatwalekelihu kutuña mpwembu, mpwembu yejima twayinuñili hamu nikuyituñulula kushika hakachi nakuya mwiwulu, nawa antu atwalekelihu kusha muchima hamudimu.
7 Chelili tuhu Sambalati, Tobaya,+ aArabiya,+ aAmoni niaAshidodi+ atiyi nawu mudimu wakuwahisha mpwembu jaYerusalema wunakuya hambidi nawa hamaluña hashalashala anakujikekahu, azuwili chikupu.
8 Akasili kafuta nakudipompesha hamu kulonda azuñi naYerusalema nikuluwañesha yuma muniwu musumba.
9 Ilaña twalombeli kudi Nzambi yetu nawa muloña wanawa antu, twashiliku anhembi akutukiña mwaana niwufuku.
10 Hela chochu, antu amuYuda ahosheleña nawu: “Ñovu yawakakuzata nyidimu* yinamani, nawa kudi nswadi jajivulu nankashi; hitukutwesha kutuñulula mpwembuku.”
11 Nawa ayilumbu jetu atwalekelihu kuhosha nawu: “Henohu kanda eluki chuma chitunakukeña kwila hela kutumona, tukuyilukuka nakuyijaha nawa mudimu wukwimana.”
12 Mpinji yejima neyi aYudeya adikumashanini nawu anenzi mumusumba, atulejeleña nakufuntisha-funtishahu* nawu: “Akenza nakutulukuka kufuma kutubadi twejima.”
13 Dichi nashili amayala mumaluña abula kuswamanyika kwakunkumuka nankashi kunyima yampwembu, nawa nayishili muyisaka-muyisaka iku anakwati mpoku jawu jatubali, mayoña nimata awu anyikunji.
14 Chinamweni woma wadiñawu nawu, hohenohu nanyamukili nakuleja antu alema,+ ayinlonda awanyuuli niantu ejima nami: “Bayi muyitiya womaku.+ Anukenu Yehova, wabadika nawa wakutiyisha woma chikupu;+ yizuñilenuku amanakwenu, anyanenu awamayala niawambanda, añodi jenu nimatala enu.”
15 Dichi ayilumbu jetu chatiyiliwu nawu tuneluki chuma chinakwilawu nawa Nzambi walala naluwañeshi kafuta kawu, wejima wetu twafuntili nakuzata kumpwembu.
16 Kufuma tuhu hanodu ifuku, chibalu chimu chawantu jami awamayala chadiña nakuzata mudimu+ ilaña chibalu chikwawu chadimanyekeli namayoña, jinkebu, mata anyikunji nituhuma twayikuñu.* Nawa ayilolu+ emeni kunyima yaamwitala daYuda ejima
17 atuñileña mpwembu. Antu asendeleña yiteli, azatileña mudimu chikasa chimu iku anakwati chitwa chanjita kuchikasa chikwawu.
18 Nawa ntuñi wejima wadimanyekeli mpoku yakabali hambunda iku nakutuña, nawa kukamwihi nanami kwemeni wakuvumisha luseñu.+
19 Kufumahu, nalejeli antu alema niayinlonda awanyuuli niantu ashalilihu nami: “Mudimu wampwembu weneni nankashi, nawa tunatandami hampwembu hana wumu-hana wumu.
20 Neyi mutiya chivumina chaluseñu, mwatela kupompa kutudi. Nzambi yetu wukutuzuñilaku.”+
21 Dichi twatwalekelihu kuzata iku chibalu chawantu amakwawu anakwati mayoña, kufuma hankunku yakucha kushika nihamwekeni tutumbwa.
22 Hayoyenoyu mpinji, nayilejeli antu nami: “Lejenu amayala ejima, iyala-hiiyala hamu namukakumukalakela, ashakami muYerusalema wufuku wejima, kulonda atuhembeña nawufuku nawa azateña namwaana.”
23 Dichi wejima wetu, ami, amanakwami, akakunkalakela+ nianhembi anlondeleleña hitwavuulili yakuvwala yetuku, nawa muntu-himuntu wadiña nachitwa chindi chanjita muchikasa chindi chachidiilu.
