27 A t the special time to praise God for the wall of Jerusalem, they looked for all the Levites in the places where they lived and brought them to Jerusalem so they might join them at this special time with happiness. They sang songs of thanks and other songs as timbrels and harps were played.

Oo markii derbigii Yeruusaalem gaar laga dhigay kuwii reer Laawi mid kasta meeshiisii baa laga doondoonay in iyaga Yeruusaalem la keeno si gaarkadhigidda farxad loogu sameeyo, oo mahadnaqid iyo gabay, iyo suxuun laysku garaaco, iyo shareerado, iyo kataaradoba Ilaah loogu ammaano.

28 S o the sons of the singers were gathered from the land around Jerusalem, from the villages of the Nethophathites,

Oo kuwii gabayaaga ahaana waxay iska soo urursadeen bannaankii Yeruusaalem ku wareegsanaa iyo tuulooyinkii reer Netofaah,

29 f rom Beth-gilgal, and from their fields in Geba and Azmaveth. For the singers had built villages for themselves around Jerusalem.

iyo weliba Beytgilgaal, iyo beerihii Gebac, iyo Casmawed, waayo, kuwii gabayaaga ahaa tuulooyin ayay ka dhisteen Yeruusaalem hareeraheeda.

30 T he religious leaders and the Levites made themselves holy, and they made the people, the gates, and the wall holy.

Markaasaa wadaaddadii iyo kuwii reer Laawi isdaahiriyeen, oo waxay kaloo daahiriyeen dadkii iyo irdihii iyo derbigii.

31 T hen I had the leaders of Judah come up on top of the wall. And I picked two large groups of singers to give thanks. One group was to go to the right on top of the wall to the Waste Gate.

Kolkaasaan amiirradii dalka Yahuudah keenay derbiga dushiisa, oo waxaan doortay laba kooxood oo waaweyn oo mahadnaqa, oo kooxba raggeedu isdaba socdo. Midi waxay tagtay xagga midig derbiga dushiisa ee Iridda Digada,

32 H oshaiah and half of the leaders of Judah followed them,

oo waxaa iyagii daba galay Hooshacyaah iyo amiirradii dalka Yahuudah badhkood,

33 w ith Azariah, Ezra, Meshullam,

iyo Casaryaah, iyo Cesraa, iyo Meshullaam,

34 J udah, Benjamin, Shemaiah, Jeremiah,

iyo Yahuudah, iyo Benyaamiin, iyo Shemacyaah, iyo Yeremyaah,

35 a nd some of the sons of the religious leaders blowing horns. Then followed Zechariah the son of Jonathan, son of Shemaiah, son of Mattaniah, son of Micaiah, son of Zaccur, son of Asaph,

iyo wiilashii wadaaddada qaarkood oo turumbooyin wata, kuwaasoo ahaa Sekaryaah oo ahaa ina Yoonaataan, ina Shemacyaah, ina Matanyaah, ina Miikaayaah, ina Sakuur, ina Aasaaf,

36 a nd his brothers, Shemaiah, Azarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethanel, Judah, and Hanani, with the objects that David the man of God had made for playing music. And Ezra the writer went before them.

iyo walaalihiis oo ahaa Shemacyaah, iyo Casareel, iyo Milalay, iyo Gilalay, iyo Maacay, iyo Netoneel, iyo Yahuudah, iyo Xanaanii, iyagoo wata alaabtii muusikada oo Daa'uud oo ahaa ninka Ilaah, oo iyaga waxaa u horreeyey karraanigii Cesraa.

37 A t the Well Gate they went straight up the steps of the city of David, by the steps of the wall above the house of David, to the Water Gate on the east.

Oo xagga Iriddii Isha Biyaha iyo hortoodii ku qummanayd ayay kor u fuuleen jaranjaradii magaalada Daa'uud meesha derbiga laga fuulo oo ka korraysa gurigii Daa'uud, iyo ilaa Iridda Biyaha oo xagga bari ah.

38 T he second group went to the left. I followed them with half of the people on the wall, above the Tower of Stoves, to the Wide Wall.

Oo kooxdii kale oo kuwa mahadda naqaa waxay u kaceen inay ka hor tagaan, oo anna iyagaan daba socday; aniga iyo dadkii badhkiis waxaannu soconnay derbiga korkiisa, xagga ka sarraysa Munaaradda Foornooyinka iyo xataa tan iyo derbiga ballaadhan,

39 T hey went above the Gate of Ephraim, by the Old Gate, the Fish Gate, the Tower of Hananel, and the Tower of the Hundred, as far as the Sheep Gate. And they stopped at the Gate of the Watchmen.

iyo xagga ka sarraysa Iridda Efrayim, iyo Iridda Gabooday agteeda, iyo Iridda Kalluunka, iyo Munaaradda Xananeel, iyo Munaaradda Mee'aah, iyo xataa Iridda Idaha; oo waxay joogsadeen Iriddii Waardiyaha.

40 T hen the two groups stood in the house of God. So did I and half of the leaders with me,

Oo sidaasay u joogsadeen labadii kooxood oo kuwii mahadda ku naqi jiray gurigii Ilaah, iyo aniga, iyo taliyayaashii badhkood oo ila joogay,

41 a nd the religious leaders, Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Micaiah, Elioenai, Zechariah, and Hananiah, with the horns,

iyo wadaaddadii ahaa Elyaaqiim, iyo Macaseeyaah, iyo Minyaamim, iyo Miikaayaah, iyo Eliyooceenay, iyo Sekaryaah, iyo Xananyaah, oo wata turumbooyin;

42 a nd Maaseiah, Shemaiah, Eleazar, Uzzi, Jehohanan, Malchijah, Elam, and Ezer. And the singers sang with Jezrahiah as their leader.

iyo Macaseeyaah, iyo Shemacyaah, iyo Elecaasaar, iyo Cusii, iyo Yehooxaanaan, iyo Malkiiyaah, iyo Ceelaam, iyo Ceser. Oo kuwii gabayaaga ahaana cod dheer bay kula gabyeen Yesraxyaah oo ahaa madaxoodii.

43 O n that day they gave many good gifts and were glad because God had given them great joy. Even the women and children were filled with joy, so that the joy of Jerusalem was heard from far away.

Oo maalintaas waxaa la bixiyey allabaryo badan, oo waa la wada farxay, waayo, Ilaah baa farxad weyn kaga farxiyey, oo dumarkii iyo carruurtiina way farxeen, sidaas daraaddeed Yeruusaalem farxaddeedii waxaa laga maqlay meel fog.

44 O n that day men were chosen for the work of the store-rooms for the gifts, the first-fruits, and the tenth part for the Lord. They were to gather into them from the fields near the towns what was to be given by the Law to the religious leaders and Levites. For Judah was filled with joy because of the religious leaders and Levites who did the work.

Oo maalintaas ayaa rag loo doortay inay u taliyaan qolalka khasnadaha, iyo qurbaannada kor loo qaado, iyo midhaha ugu horreeya, iyo meeltobnaadyada, si loogaga soo ururiyo beeraha magaalooyinka oo dhan qaybihii sharcigu u amray wadaaddada iyo kuwii reer Laawi, waayo, dadka dalka Yahuudah way ku faraxsanaayeen wadaaddadii iyo kuwii reer Laawi oo adeegayay.

45 T hey did the work of their God and the work of making everything clean from sin, together with the singers and the gate-keepers. They did as David and his son Solomon had told them.

Oo waxay dhawreen wixii ku saabsanaa u adeegidda Ilaahood iyo wixii ku saabsanaa isdaahirinta, oo kuwii gabayaaga ahaa iyo irid-dhawryadiina saasoo kalay yeeleen, sidii uu amarkii Daa'uud iyo wiilkiisii Sulaymaan ahaa.

46 F or in the days of David and Asaph, long ago, there were leaders of the singers, and songs of praise and thanks to God.

Waayo, waagii hore oo ahaa wakhtigii Daa'uud iyo Aasaaf waxaa jiri jiray nin madax u ahaa kuwii gabayaaga ahaa, oo waxaa Ilaah loogu gabyi jiray gabayo ammaan iyo mahadnaqid ah.

47 S o all Israel in the days of Zerubbabel and Nehemiah gave what was to be given to the singers and gate-keepers each day. They set apart what was for the Levites. And the Levites set apart what was for the sons of Aaron.

Oo wakhtigii Serubaabel iyo wakhtigii Nexemyaah reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu way wada bixin jireen qaybihii kuwii gabayaaga ahaa iyo kuwii irid-dhawryadaba intii maalin kasta loo baahnaan jiray; oo in bay gooni uga dhigeen reer Laawi, oo reer Laawina in bay gooni uga dhigeen reer Haaruun.
