1 N ow it came about that when Sanballat heard that we were rebuilding the wall, he became furious and very angry and mocked the Jews.

Laakiinse markii Sanballad maqlay inaannu derbigii dhisaynay ayuu cadhooday, oo aad u dhirfay, oo Yuhuuddiina wuu ku majaajilooday.

2 H e spoke in the presence of his brothers and the wealthy men of Samaria and said, “What are these feeble Jews doing? Are they going to restore it for themselves? Can they offer sacrifices? Can they finish in a day? Can they revive the stones from the dusty rubble even the burned ones?”

Markaasuu ka hor hadlay walaalihiis iyo ciidankii Samaariya, oo wuxuu yidhi, War Yuhuuddan itaalka daranu waxay samaynayaan waa maxay? Iyaga ma la daynayaa? Oo miyey allabaryayaan? Oo ma maalin bay hawshaas ku dhammaynayaan? Oo dhagxantii miyey ka soo noolaynayaan tuulmooyinkii waxyaalaha baabba'ay oo gubtay?

3 N ow Tobiah the Ammonite was near him and he said, “Even what they are building— if a fox should jump on it, he would break their stone wall down!”

Oo haddana Toobiyaah oo ahaa reer Cammoon oo agtiisa taagnaa wuxuu yidhi, Waxa ay dhisayaan oo dhan xataa haddii dawaco fuusho way kala burburinaysaa derbigooda dhagaxa ah.

4 H ear, O our God, how we are despised! Return their reproach on their own heads and give them up for plunder in a land of captivity.

Ilaahayagow, bal maqal, waayo, waa nala quudhsadaye; caydooda dib ugu celi madaxooda, oo iyaga u gacangeli dal dhaca oo maxaabiis ahaan u kaxaysta.

5 D o not forgive their iniquity and let not their sin be blotted out before You, for they have demoralized the builders.

Oo xumaantoodana ha dedin, oo dembigoodana yaan hortaada laga tirtirin, waayo, kuwii wax dhisayay hortooda ayay kaaga xanaajiyeen.

6 S o we built the wall and the whole wall was joined together to half its height, for the people had a mind to work.

Haddaba derbigii waannu dhisnay; oo derbigii oo dhan waa lays qabadsiiyey ilaa qotonkiisii badhkiis la gaadhsiiyey, waayo dadku waxay maanka ku hayeen inay shaqeeyaan.

7 N ow when Sanballat, Tobiah, the Arabs, the Ammonites and the Ashdodites heard that the repair of the walls of Jerusalem went on, and that the breaches began to be closed, they were very angry.

Laakiinse markii Sanballad, iyo Toobiyaah, iyo kuwii Carbeed, iyo reer Cammoon, iyo reer Ashdood ay maqleen in derbiyadii Yeruusaalem cusboonaysiintoodii ay hore u socotay iyo in la bilaabay in daldaloolladii la fureeyo ayay aad u cadhoodeen.

8 A ll of them conspired together to come and fight against Jerusalem and to cause a disturbance in it. Discouragement Overcome

Markaasay dhammaantood shirqool ku wada arrinsadeen inay soo kacaan oo Yeruusaalem la diriraan, iyo inay dhexdeeda qas ka ridaan.

9 B ut we prayed to our God, and because of them we set up a guard against them day and night.

Laakiinse waxaannu barinnay Ilaahayo, oo iyaga aawadood ayaannu yeelnay waardiyayaal naga ilaaliya habeen iyo maalinba.

10 T hus in Judah it was said, “The strength of the burden bearers is failing, Yet there is much rubbish; And we ourselves are unable To rebuild the wall.”

Markaasaa dadkii dalka Yahuudah waxay yidhaahdeen, Kuwa culaysyada qaada xooggoodii waa yaraaday, oo waxaa jira waxyaalo dundumay oo badan, sidaa daraaddeed derbiga ma dhisi karno.

11 O ur enemies said, “They will not know or see until we come among them, kill them and put a stop to the work.”

Oo cadaawayaashayadiina waxay yidhaahdeen, Iyagu ma ay ogaan doonaan, mana ay arki doonaan jeeraan dhex tagno oo aan iyaga layno, oo shuqulkana aan joojinno.

12 W hen the Jews who lived near them came and told us ten times, “ They will come up against us from every place where you may turn,”

Oo markii Yuhuuddii iyaga ag degganayd ay yimaadeen, waxay toban jeer nagu yidhaahdeen, Idinku waa inaad meel walba nooga soo noqotaan.

13 t hen I stationed men in the lowest parts of the space behind the wall, the exposed places, and I stationed the people in families with their swords, spears and bows.

Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed meeshii ugu hoosaysay oo derbiga ka dambaysay oo meelaha bannaan ku yiil ayaan taagay dadkii qoloqolo u safan oo wada haysta seefahoodii, iyo warmahoodii, iyo qaansooyinkoodiiba.

14 W hen I saw their fear, I rose and spoke to the nobles, the officials and the rest of the people: “ Do not be afraid of them; remember the Lord who is great and awesome, and fight for your brothers, your sons, your daughters, your wives and your houses.”

Oo intaan wax fiiriyey ayaan kacay oo waxaan ku idhi kuwii gobta ahaa, iyo taliyayaashii, iyo dadka intiisii kaleba, Iyaga ha ka cabsanina, ee waxaad xusuusataan Sayidka weyn oo laga cabsado, oo waxaad u dirirtaan walaalihiin, iyo wiilashiinna, iyo gabdhihiinna, iyo naagihiinna, iyo guryihiinnaba.

15 W hen our enemies heard that it was known to us, and that God had frustrated their plan, then all of us returned to the wall, each one to his work.

Haddaba markii cadaawayaashayadii ay maqleen inaannu taas ogaannay, oo uu Ilaah taladoodii kala riday, ayaannu kulligayo ku noqonnay derbigii oo mid waluba wuxuu qabtay shuqulkiisii.

16 F rom that day on, half of my servants carried on the work while half of them held the spears, the shields, the bows and the breastplates; and the captains were behind the whole house of Judah.

Oo intii markaas ka dambaysay midiidinnadaydii badhkood shuqulkii bay sameeyeen, oo badhkoodii kalena waxay hayeen warmihii, iyo gaashaammadii, iyo qaansooyinkii, iyo jubbado bir ah, oo taliyayaashii oo dhammuna way daba taagnaayeen dadkii dalka Yahuudah oo dhan.

17 T hose who were rebuilding the wall and those who carried burdens took their load with one hand doing the work and the other holding a weapon.

Oo kuwii derbiga dhisayay iyo kuwii wax culus isa saarayba mid waluba gacmihiisa middood wuxuu ku sameeyey shuqulkii, midda kale wuxuu ku haystay hubkiisii dagaalka.

18 A s for the builders, each wore his sword girded at his side as he built, while the trumpeter stood near me.

Oo kuwii wax dhisayayna mid walba seeftiisu dhinaca ayay ugu xidhnayd, oo sidaasayna wax u dhisayeen. Oo kii buunka yeedhin jirayna aniguu i ag joogay.

19 I said to the nobles, the officials and the rest of the people, “The work is great and extensive, and we are separated on the wall far from one another.

Oo waxaan ku idhi kuwii gobta ahaa, iyo taliyayaashii, iyo dadka intiisii kaleba, Shuqulku waa weyn yahay, wuuna ballaadhan yahay, annana derbiga dushiisa waannu ku kala firidhsan nahay, oo midba midka kale wuu ka fog yahay.

20 A t whatever place you hear the sound of the trumpet, rally to us there. Our God will fight for us.”

Meel alla meeshii aad ka maqashaan dhawaaqa buunka, halkaas noogu soo urura; waxaa inoo diriri doona Ilaaheenna.

21 S o we carried on the work with half of them holding spears from dawn until the stars appeared.

Sidaasaannu shuqulkii u qabannay; oo dadka badhkiisna waxay warmaha haysteen markii waagu beryay iyo tan iyo jeeray xiddiguhu muuqdeen.

22 A t that time I also said to the people, “Let each man with his servant spend the night within Jerusalem so that they may be a guard for us by night and a laborer by day.”

Oo sidaas oo kale isla markaas waxaan dadkii ku idhi, Mid kasta iyo midiidinkiisu ha ku soo hoydeen Yeruusaalem, si ay habeenkii waardiyayaal noogu noqdaan, maalintiina ay u hawshoodaan.

23 S o neither I, my brothers, my servants, nor the men of the guard who followed me, none of us removed our clothes, each took his weapon even to the water.

Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed aniga iyo walaalahay, iyo midiidinnadaydii, iyo raggii waardiyaha ahaa oo i daba socday toona midkayana dharkiisii iskama furin, oo mid kastaaba isagoo hubkiisii u xidhan yahay ayaa biyaha xaggooda tegey.
