Baibal Olcim (Matupi Chin)
1When the wall had been rebuilt and I had set the doors in place, the gatekeepers, singers, and Levites were appointed.
1Vongtung te a sak phoeiah tah thohkhaih te ka buen tih thoh tawt neh laa sa khaw, Levi khaw ka khueh.
2Then I put my brother Hanani in charge of Jerusalem, along with Hananiah the commander of the fortress, because he was a faithful man who feared God more than most.
2Te vaengah ka mana Hanani neh Hananiah te Jerusalem rhalmah im ah mangpa la ka uen. Anih tah oltak kah hlang la om tih Pathen te muep a rhih ngai.
3And I told them, “Do not open the gates of Jerusalem until the sun is hot. While the guards are on duty, keep the doors shut and securely fastened. And appoint the residents of Jerusalem as guards, some at their posts and some at their own homes.”
3Te phoeiah amih te ka uen tih, “Khohmik a saeham hil Jerusalem vongka te ah uh boel saeh. Amamih a rhaih pai vaengah thohkhaih te khai uh saeh lamtah kalh uh saeh. Jerusalem kah khosa rhoek tah amah rhaltawt ah pakhat neh a im hmai ah pakhat te rhaltawt la pai bal saeh,” ka ti nah.
4Now the city was large and spacious, but there were few people in it, and the houses had not yet been rebuilt.
4Khopuei te hmatoeng lamtah sang tih len dae a khui kah pilnam tah a yol dongah im sa om pawh.
5Then my God put it into my heart to assemble the nobles, the officials, and the people to be enrolled by genealogy. I found the genealogical register of those who had first returned, and I found the following written in it:
5Ka pathen loh ka lungbuei ah a khueh dongah hlangcoelh rhoek khaw, ukkung rhoek khaw, pilnam khaw a khuui bangla ka coi. Te vaengah lamhma la aka mael rhoek kah rhuirhong cabu te ka hmuh tih a khuiah a daek tangtae la ka hmuh.
6These are the people of the province who came up from the captivity of the exiles carried away to Babylon by Nebuchadnezzar its king. They returned to Jerusalem and Judah, each to his own town,
6He tah vangsawn tamna lamkah aka mael rhoek paeng ca rhoek ni. Amih te Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar loh a poelyoe dae Jerusalem la, Judah la, amah kho la rhip mael uh.

64Amih kah a khuui ca te a tlap uh dae a hmu pawt dongah khosoihbi lamloh coom uh coeng.
