4 Ido, Ginethoi, Abija,
5 Mijamine, Maadia, Bilega,
6 Shemaia, Joiaribe, Jedaia,
7 Salu, Amoke, Hilekia le Jedaia. Bano e ne e le ditlhogo tsa baperesiti le bomorwarraabone mo motlheng wa ga Jeshua.
8 Balefi e ne e le Jeshua, Binui, Kadamiele,+ Sherebia, Juda le Matania,+ yo o neng a tlhabeletsa dipina tsa go leboga mmogo le bomorwarraagwe.
9 Mme bomorwarraabone e bong Bakebukia le Uni ba ne ba eme go lebagana le bone mo tirong ya go disa.*
10 Jeshua o ne a nna rraagwe Joiakime, mme Joiakime o ne a nna rraagwe Eliashibe,+ mme Eliashibe o ne a nna rraagwe Joiada.+
11 Mme Joiada o ne a nna rraagwe Jonathane, mme Jonathane o ne a nna rraagwe Jadua.
12 Mo motlheng wa ga Joiakime, bano e ne e le baperesiti, e leng ditlhogo tsa dikgotla tsa bone: yo o neng a emetse lelapa la ga Seraia,+ e ne e le Meraia; yo o neng a emetse lelapa la ga Jeremia, e ne e le Hanania;
13 yo o neng a emetse lelapa la ga Esera,+ e ne e le Meshulame; yo o neng a emetse lelapa la ga Amaria, e ne e le Jehohanane;
14 yo o neng a emetse lelapa la ga Maluki, e ne e le Jonathane; yo o neng a emetse lelapa la ga Shebania, e ne e le Josefa;
15 yo o neng a emetse lelapa la ga Harime,+ e ne e le Adena; yo o neng a emetse lelapa la ga Meraiothe, e ne e le Helekai;
16 yo o neng a emetse lelapa la ga Ido, e ne e le Sekarea; yo o neng a emetse lelapa la ga Ginethone, e ne e le Meshulame;
17 yo o neng a emetse lelapa la ga Abija,+ e ne e le Sikeri, yo o neng a emetse lelapa la ga Miniamine, . . . ;* yo o neng a emetse lelapa la ga Moadia, e ne e le Piletai;

21 yo o neng a emetse lelapa la ga Hilekia, e ne e le Hashabia; yo o neng a emetse lelapa la ga Jedaia, e ne e le Nethanele.
22 Ditlhogo tsa dikgotla tsa Balefi mo motlheng wa ga Eliashibe, Joiada, Johanane le Jadua+ di ne di kwadisitswe, fela jaaka baperesiti ba ne ba kwadisitswe, go fitlha ka nako ya puso ya ga Dario wa Moperesia.
23 Balefi ba e neng e le ditlhogo tsa dikgotla tsa bone ba ne ba kwadilwe mo bukeng ya dipego tsa metlha eo, go fitlha mo motlheng wa ga Johanane morwa Eliashibe.
24 Ditlhogo tsa Balefi e ne e le Hashabia, Sherebia le Jeshua+ morwa Kadamiele,+ mme bomorwarraabone ba ne ba ema go lebagana le bone gore ba ise pako le go ntsha ditebogo go ya ka ditaelo tsa ga Dafide+ monna wa Modimo wa boammaaruri, setlhopha sa badisa se lebagane le setlhopha sa badisa.
25 Matania,+ Bakebukia, Obadia, Meshulame, Talemone le Akube+ e ne e le badisa ba dikgoro,+ ba disa mabolokelo a a fa dikgorong.
26 Bano ba ne ba direla mo motlheng wa ga Joiakime morwa Jeshua+ morwa Josadake le mo motlheng wa ga Nehemia yo e neng e le mmusi le Esera+ yo e neng e le moperesiti e bile e le mokwalolodi.*
27 Ka nako ya go kgakolwa ga dipota tsa Jerusalema, ba ne ba batla Balefi kwa mafelong otlhe a ba neng ba nna kwa go one mme ba ba tlisa mo Jerusalema gore ba tle go keteka go kgakolwa ga dipota tseo ka boitumelo, ka dipina tsa go leboga+ le ka disemebala, ka diletswa tsa megala le ka diharepa.
28 Mme barwa ba baopedi* ba ne ba phuthega mmogo ba tswa kwa kgaolong,* ba tswa mo mafelong otlhe a a dikologileng Jerusalema, ba tswa kwa metsaneng ya Banetofa,+
29 ba tswa kwa Bethe-gilegala+ le kwa dikgaolong tsa Geba+ le Asamafetha,+ ka gonne baopedi ba ne ba ikagetse metsana go dikologa Jerusalema yotlhe.
30 Mme baperesiti le Balefi ba ne ba iitshekisa ba bo ba itshekisa batho,+ dikgoro+ le lobota.+
31 Go tswa foo, ke ne ka isa dikgosana tsa Juda kwa godimo ga lobota. Mo godimo ga moo, ke ne ka tlhoma ditlhopha tse pedi tse dikgolo tsa baopedi ba ba ntshang ditebogo mme sengwe le sengwe se ne se setswe morago ke setlhopha sa batho, se sengwe se ne se tsamaya ka fa mojeng mo loboteng go ela kwa Kgorong ya Dithotobolo Tsa Molora.+
32 Hoshaia le halofo ya dikgosana tsa Juda ba ne ba tsamaya fa morago ga bone,
33 mmogo le Asaria, Esera, Meshulame,
34 Juda, Benjamine, Shemaia le Jeremia.
35 Ba ne ba na le barwa bano ba baperesiti ba tshotse diterompeta:+ Sekarea morwa Jonathane morwa Shemaia morwa Matania morwa Mikaia morwa Sakure morwa Asafe,+
36 le bomorwarraagwe e bong Shemaia, Asarele, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethanele, Juda le Hanani, ba tshotse diletswa tsa mmino tsa ga Dafide+ monna wa Modimo wa boammaaruri; mme Esera+ yo e neng e le mokwalolodi* o ne a tsamaya fa pele ga bone.
37 Fa ba le kwa Kgorong ya Motswedi+ ba ne ba tlhamalala ba tsamaya ka Ditepisi+ Tsa Motse wa ga Dafide+ fa thotaneng ya lobota lo lo fa godimo ga Ntlo ya ga Dafide mme ba ne ba ya kwa Kgorong ya Metsi+ kwa ntlheng ya botlhaba.
38 Setlhopha se sengwe sa baopedi ba ba ntshang ditebogo se ne se tsamaya ka fa letlhakoreng le lengwe go lebagana le setlhopha sa ntlha,* mme ke ne ka se sala morago ke na le halofo ya batho, mo loboteng lo lo yang kwa Toreng ya Dionto*+ mme se bo se ya kwa Loboteng lo lo Sephara+
39 mme se ne sa tlhatlogela kwa godimo ga Kgoro ya Eferaime+ se bo se ya kwa Kgorong ya Motse o Mogologolo+ mme se bo se fetela kwa Kgorong ya Ditlhapi,+ kwa Toreng ya Hananele,+ kwa Toreng ya Mea le kwa Kgorong ya Dinku;+ mme ba ne ba ema kwa Kgorong ya Badisa.
40 La bofelo ditlhopha tseo tse pedi tsa baopedi ba ba ntshang ditebogo di ne tsa ema fa pele ga ntlo ya Modimo wa boammaaruri; le nna ke ne ka ema foo ke na le halofo ya balaodi,
41 le baperesiti e bong Eliakime, Maaseia, Miniamine, Mikaia, Elioenai, Sekarea le Hanania ba tshotse diterompeta,
42 le Maaseia, Shemaia, Eliasare, Usi, Jehohanane, Malekija, Elame le Esere. Mme baopedi ba ne ba opelela kwa godimo ba eteletswe pele ke Iserahia.
43 Mo letsatsing leo ba ne ba ntsha ditlhabelo tse dikgolo ba bo ba itumela,+ ka gonne Modimo wa boammaaruri o ne a dirile gore ba itumele thata.+ Basadi le bana le bone ba ne ba itumetse, mo e leng gore boitumelo jwa Jerusalema bo ne jwa utlwiwa kgakala thata.+
44 Mo letsatsing leo go ne ga tlhomiwa banna gore ba okamele mabolokelo+ a meneelo,+ a mabutswapele+ le a dikarolo tsa bolesome.*+ Ba ne ba tshwanetse go phuthela mo go one dikarolo tse di tswang kwa masimong a metse tse di neng di batlega go ya ka Molao+ gore e nne tsa baperesiti le Balefi,+ ka gonne batho ba Juda ba ne ba itumetse ka ntlha ya baperesiti le Balefi ba ba neng ba direla.
45 Mme ba ne ba simolola go dira ditiro tsa Modimo wa bone le go diragatsa boikarabelo jwa go itshekisa, fela jaaka baopedi le badisa ba dikgoro ba ne ba dira, go dumalana le ditaelo tsa ga Dafide le morwawe e bong Solomone.
46 Gonne bogologolo mo metlheng ya ga Dafide le Asafe, go ne go na le bakaedi* ba baopedi le ba dipina tsa pako le tsa go leboga Modimo.+
47 Mme mo motlheng wa ga Serubabele+ le mo motlheng wa ga Nehemia, Baiseraele botlhe ba ne ba naya baopedi+ le badisa ba dikgoro dijo,+ go ya ka se se neng se tlhokega letsatsi le letsatsi. Gape ba ne ba beela kwa thoko karolo e ba e ntshetsang Balefi,+ mme Balefi bone ba ne ba beela kwa thoko karolo e ba tla e ntshetsang ditlogolwana tsa ga Arone.
