1 H addaba madaxdii qabiilooyinka waa kuwan, oo kanu waa abtirkii kuwii Baabuloon iga raacay waagii Boqor Artaxshasta dowladnimada haystay.

And of the last sons of Adonikam, whose names are these: Eliphelet, Jeiel, and Shemaiah, and with them sixty males.

Of the sons also of Bigvai; Uthai and Zabbud and with them seventy males.

15 O o iyaga waxaan ku soo wada ururiyey webiga u socda xagga Ahawaa, oo halkaasaannu degganayn saddex maalmood; markaasaan dadkii iyo wadaaddadii u fiirsaday, oo halkaasna kama aan helin mid reer Laawi ah.

And I gathered them together to the river that runs to Ahava, and there we encamped three days, and having searched among the people and the priests, I did not find there any of the sons of Levi.

16 O o markaasaan u cid diray Eliiceser, iyo Arii'eel, iyo Shemacyaah, iyo Elnaataan, iyo Yaariib, iyo Elnaataan, iyo Naataan, iyo Sekaryaah, iyo Meshullaam, oo wada ahaa rag madax ah, iyo weliba Yooyaariib iyo Elnaataan, oo iyana ahaa macallimiin.

Then I commissioned Eliezer, Ariel, Shemaiah, Elnathan, Jarib, Elnathan, Nathan, Zechariah, and Meshullam, principals, also Joiarib and Elnathan, men of understanding;

17 O o waxaan iyagii u diray Iddo oo madax ka ahaa meesha Kaasifiyaa la yidhaahdo; oo waxaan iyagii u sheegay wixii ay ku odhan lahaayeen Iddo iyo walaalihiis oo reer Netiiniim ah oo jooga meesha la yidhaahdo Kaasifiyaa, inay noo keenaan midiidinno ka dhex adeega guriga Ilaahayaga.

and I sent them unto Iddo, the captain at the place of Casiphia, and I put words in their mouth that they should speak unto Iddo and to his brethren, the Nethinims, at the place of Casiphia, that they should bring unto us ministers for the house of our God.

18 O o sidii ay gacanta wanaagsan oo Ilaahayagu noo saarnayd, waxay noo keeneen nin waxgarad ah oo ah reer Maxlii, oo ka ah reer Laawi, oo ka sii ah reer binu Israa'iil, iyo Sheereebyaah, iyo wiilashiisii iyo walaalihiis oo siddeed iyo toban isku ahaa,

And by the good hand of our God upon us, they brought us a man of understanding, of the sons of Mahli, the son of Levi, the son of Israel; and Sherebiah, with his sons and his brethren, eighteen;

19 i yo Xashabyaah, iyo Yeshacyaah oo ahaa reer Meraarii, iyo walaalihiis iyo wiilashoodii oo labaatan isku ahaa,

and Hashabiah, and with him Jeshaiah of the sons of Merari, his brethren and their sons, twenty;

20 i yo reer Netiiniim oo ay Daa'uud iyo amiirradiisii u dhiibeen adeegiddii reer Laawi oo laba boqol iyo labaatan ahaa, oo dhammaantoodna ninba magiciisii baa loogu yeedhi jiray.

also of the Nethinims, whom David and the princes had appointed for the ministry of the Levites, two hundred and twenty Nethinims: all of them were expressed by name.

21 O o markaasaan, intii aannu joognay Webi Ahawaa, halkaas kaga dhawaaqay in la soomo, inaannu isku hoosaysiinno Ilaahayaga hortiisa, inaannu ka barinno jid toosan oo annaga iyo dhallaankayaga iyo xoolahayaga oo dhammuba aannu marno.

¶ Then I proclaimed a fast there at the river of Ahava that we might afflict ourselves before our God, to seek of him a right way for us and for our little ones and for all our substance.

22 W aayo, waxaan ka xishooday inaan boqorka weyddiisto koox askar iyo fardooley ah inay naga caawiyaan cadowga jidka noo jooga, maxaa yeelay, boqorka baannu la hadallay oo ku nidhi, Gacanta Ilaahayagu waxay saaran tahay intii isaga doondoonta oo dhan, wayna u wanaagsan tahay; laakiinse xooggiisa iyo cadhadiisu waxay ka gees yihiin in alla intii isaga ka tagta oo dhan.

For I was ashamed to require of the king a band of soldiers and horsemen to defend us against the enemy in the way because we had spoken unto the king, saying, The hand of our God is upon all those that seek him for good; but his power and his wrath is against all those that forsake him.

23 S idaas daraaddeed waannu soonnay, oo waxaannu ka barinnay Ilaahayo wax taas ku saabsan, wuuna naga aqbalay.

So we fasted and besought our God for this, and he was intreated of us.

24 M arkaasaan gooni u soocay laba iyo toban nin oo wadaaddada madaxdoodii ah, oo waxay ahaayeen Sheereebyaah iyo Xashabyaah, iyo toban iyaga la jiray oo walaalahood ah,

¶ Then I separated twelve of the principals of the priests, Sherebiah, Hashabiah, and ten of their brethren with them,

25 o o waxaan u miisaamay lacagtii iyo dahabkii iyo weelashii ahaa qurbaankii loo bixiyey guriga Ilaah oo ay wada bixiyeen boqorkii iyo lataliyayaashiisii iyo amiirradiisii, iyo reer binu Israa'iilkii halkaas joogay oo dhan.

and weighed unto them the silver and the gold and the vessels, the offering for the house of our God, which the king and his counsellors and his princes and all those that were of Israel had offered.

26 W axaan iyaga u miisaamay oo gacanta u geliyey lix boqol iyo konton talanti oo lacag ah, iyo weelal lacag ah oo iyana boqol talanti ah, iyo boqol talanti oo dahab ah,

I weighed, therefore, unto their hand six hundred and fifty talents of silver and silver vessels of one hundred talents and of gold one hundred talents;

27 i yo labaatan maddiibadood oo dahab ah oo iyana kun dirham ah, iyo laba weel oo ah naxaas dhalaalaysa oo sida dahab qaali u ah.

also twenty basins of gold, of a thousand drams, and two vessels of clean brass, precious as gold.

28 O o markaasaan ku idhi, Idinku Rabbigaad quduus u tihiin oo weelashuna waa quduus, oo lacagta iyo dahabka waa qurbaan ikhtiyaar loogu bixiyey Rabbiga ah Ilaaha awowayaashiin.

And I said unto them, Ye are holiness unto the LORD; the vessels are holiness also; and the silver and the gold are a freewill offering unto the LORD God of your fathers.

29 H addaba idinku dhawra oo xajiya ilaa aad ku hor miisaantaan wadaaddada sare, iyo kuwa reer Laawi, iyo amiirrada qolooyinka reer binu Israa'iil, idinkoo jooga qolladaha guriga Ilaah ee Yeruusaalem.

Watch and keep them until you weigh them before the princes of the priests and the Levites and of the princes of the fathers of Israel in Jerusalem, in the chambers of the house of the LORD.

30 S idaasay wadaaddadii iyo kuwii reer Laawi u aqbaleen miisaankii lacagtii iyo dahabkii iyo weelashii inay geeyaan Yeruusaalem iyo ilaa guriga Ilaahayo.

The priests and the Levites received the weight of the silver and of the gold and of the vessels, to bring them to Jerusalem unto the house of our God.

31 M arkaasaannu Webi Ahawaa ka tagnay, oo Yeruusaalem u ambabbaxnay bishii kowaad maalinteedii laba iyo tobnaad; oo waxaa na saarnayd gacantii Ilaahayo, wuuna naga samatabbixiyey gacantii cadowga iyo kuwii jidka noogu gabbanayay.

¶ And we departed from the river of Ahava on the twelfth of the first month to go to Jerusalem; and the hand of our God was upon us, and he delivered us from the hand of the enemy and of such as lay in wait by the way.

32 O o waxaannu nimid Yeruusaalem oo halkaasaannu intii saddex maalmood ah iska joognay.

And we came to Jerusalem and abode there three days.

33 O o maalintii afraad ayaa lacagtii iyo dahabkii iyo weelashii lagu dhex miisaamay gurigii Ilaahayo oo waxaa gacanta loo geliyey wadaadkii Mereemood oo ahaa ina Uuriyaah, oo waxaa isaga la jiray Elecaasaar oo ahaa ina Fiinexaas; oo waxaa kaloo iyaga la jiray Yoosaabaad oo ahaa ina Yeeshuuca, iyo Noocadyaah oo ahaa ina Binnuwii oo iyana ahaa reer Laawi;

Now on the fourth day the silver and the gold and the vessels were weighed in the house of our God by the hand of Meremoth, the son of Uriah, the priest; and with him was Eleazar, the son of Phinehas; and with them was Jozabad, the son of Jeshua, and Noadiah, the son of Binnui, Levites;

34 o o alaabtii oo dhan waxay ku wada guddoomeen tiro iyo miisaan, oo miisaankii oo dhanna waagaas ayaa la wada qoray.

by number and by weight of each one; and all the weight was written at that time.

35 O o dadkii maxaabiista ahaan jiray ee masaafuriska ka soo noqday, waxay Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil allabaryo la gubo ugu bixiyeen laba iyo toban dibi reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan aawadiis, iyo lix iyo sagaashan wan, iyo toddoba iyo toddobaatan baraar ah, iyo laba iyo toban orgi oo qurbaan dembi loo bixiyey; oo kulli intaas oo dhammu waxay ahaayeen allabaryo la gubo oo Rabbiga loo bixiyey.

Those that had been carried away, the sons of the captivity, offered burnt offerings unto the God of Israel, twelve bullocks for all Israel, ninety-six rams, seventy-seven lambs, twelve he goats as sin; all this was a burnt offering unto the LORD.

36 O o waxay amarkii boqorka u geeyeen saraakiishii boqorka iyo taliyayaashii webiga ka shisheeyey; oo iyana way taageereen dadkii iyo gurigii Ilaah.

And they delivered the king’s commissions unto the king’s lieutenants and captains of the other side the river, which favoured the people and the house of God.
