1 H addaba markii derbigii la dhisay, oo aan taagay albaabbadii, oo irid-dhawryadii iyo kuwii gabayaaga ahaa iyo kuwii reer Laawi la doortay,

Now when the wall was built and I had set up the doors, and the gatekeepers, singers, and Levites had been appointed,

2 a yaan Yeruusaalem madax uga dhigay walaalkay Xanaanii, iyo Xananyaah oo ahaa taliyihii qalcadda, waayo, wuxuu ahaa nin aamin ah, oo cabsida Ilaahna dad badan buu kaga horreeyey.

I gave my brother Hanani, with Hananiah the ruler of the castle, charge over Jerusalem, for Hananiah was a more faithful and God-fearing man than many.

3 O o waxaan iyagii ku idhi, Jeer ay qorraxdu kululaato yaan la furin irdaha Yeruusaalem, oo intay waardiyayaashu taagan yihiin albaabbada ha la xidho, oo idinku qataara, dadka Yeruusaalem degganna waardiyayaal ka doorta, oo mid waluba ha dhawro meel gurigiisa ka soo hor jeedda. Tiradii Maxaabiista Dib U Soo Noqotay

I said to them, Let not the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun is hot; and while the watchmen are still on guard, let them shut and bar the doors. Appoint guards from the people of Jerusalem, each to his watch and each opposite his own house.

4 H addaba magaaladu way ballaadhnayd, wayna weynayd, laakiinse dadku way ku yaraayeen, oo guryihiina ma ay dhisnayn.

Now the city was wide and large, but the people in it were few, and their houses were not yet built.

5 M arkaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu qalbigayga geliyey inaan soo wada ururiyo kuwii gobta ahaa, iyo taliyayaashii, iyo dadkii oo dhanba in abtiriskooda la tiriyo. Oo waxaan helay buuggii uu ku qornaa abtiriskii kuwii markii hore yimid, oo waxaan ka helay oo gudihiisa ku qornaa:

And my God put it into my mind and heart to assemble the nobles, the officers, and the people, that they might be counted by genealogy. And I found a register of the genealogy of those who came at the first, and found written in it:

6 H addaba kuwanu waa dadkii gobolka ee ka soo noqday maxaabiisnimadii, oo ku jiray kuwii la kaxaystay, oo Nebukadnesar oo ahaa boqorkii Baabuloon uu u kaxaystay Baabuloon, oo ku soo noqday Yeruusaalem iyo dalkii Yahuudah, mid waluba magaaladiisii,

These are the people of the province who came up out of the captivity of those exiles whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away; they returned to Jerusalem and to Judah, each to his town,
