1Ke Sanballat el lohng lah kut mwet Jew mutawauk tari in sifil musai pot uh, el kasrkusrak ac mutawauk in sufan kut.
1But when Sanballat heard that we were building the wall, he was angry, and was very indignant, and mocked the Jews.
2El fahk ye mutun mwet lal ac un mwet mweun lun Samaria, “Mea mwet Jew afon inge oru uh? Ya elos nunku in sifil musai siti uh? Ya elos nunku mu ke sripen mwe kisa elos oru inge, ac ku in tari ke len sefanna? Ya elos ku in orek eot in musa ke yol in eot firirla ac mokutkuti?”
2He spoke before his brothers and the army of Samaria, and said, “What are these feeble Jews doing? Will they fortify themselves? Will they sacrifice? Will they finish in a day? Will they revive the stones out of the heaps of rubbish, since they are burned?”
3Tobiah el tu siskal na el fahk, “Pot fuka se elos ac ku in orala? Finne fox soko, el ac ku in rakinya!”
3Now Tobiah the Ammonite was by him, and he said, “What they are building, if a fox climbed up it, he would break down their stone wall.”
4Nga pre ac fahk, “O God, lohng kas in aksruksruk lalos kacsr inge. Lela angonkas lalos in folokyang nu faclos sifacna. Lela tuh ma lalos nukewa in pisreyukla, ac in utukla elos oana luman mwet kapir nu in sie mutunfacl ma elos mwetsac nu we.
4“Hear, our God, for we are despised. Turn back their reproach on their own head. Give them up for a plunder in a land of captivity.
5Nikmet nunak munas ke ma koluk elos oru, ac nikmet mulkunla ma koluk lalos, ke sripen elos akkolukye kut su musa.”
5Don’t cover their iniquity. Don’t let their sin be blotted out from before you; for they have insulted the builders.”
6Ouinge kut orekma na ke pot uh. Tia paht na sun tafu fulata, ke sripen mwet uh arulana insewowo in orekma.
6So we built the wall; and all the wall was joined together to half its height, for the people had a mind to work.
7Sanballat, Tobiah, ac mwet Arabia, mwet Ammon, ac mwet Ashdod elos lohngak lah kilkilukyakna orekma lasr ke pot Jerusalem, ac acn ma soenna kupasreni ke pot ah fahsr in fonfonla, na elos kasrkusrakak.
7But when Sanballat, Tobiah, the Arabians, the Ammonites, and the Ashdodites heard that the repairing of the walls of Jerusalem went forward, and that the breaches began to be filled, they were very angry;
8Ouinge elos nukewa pwapa in tukeni tuku fusauk orekma uh, ac mweuni Jerusalem.
8and they all conspired together to come and fight against Jerusalem, and to cause confusion among us.
9Tusruktu kut pre nu sin God lasr, ac filiya mwet in topangi mwet lokoalok ke len ac fong.
9But we made our prayer to our God, and set a watch against them day and night because of them.
10Mwet Judah elos onkakin on in asor soko inge: “Kut munasla in us ma toasr, Ac puslana kutkut in utukla. Kut ac musai pot uh fuka?”
10Judah said, “The strength of the bearers of burdens is fading and there is much rubble, so that we are not able to build the wall.”
11Mwet lokoalok lasr nunku mu kut ac tia liyalos ku etu ma elos akoo nwe ke elos sun kut ac unikuti, in pwanang orekma lasr uh in tui.
11Our adversaries said, “They will not know or see, until we come in among them and kill them, and cause the work to cease.”
12Tusruktu pacl pus, mwet Jew su muta inmasrlon mwet lokoalok lasr, elos fahsr fahk nu sesr ma elos akoo in oru lain kut.
12When the Jews who lived by them came, they said to us ten times from all places, “Wherever you turn, they will attack us.”
13Ouinge nga sang cutlass, osra, ac pisr nu sin mwet lasr, ac oakelosi in sou, tuh elos in tu sisken pot uh nu loac, ke acn nukewa ma patpat ac srakna pusisel.
13Therefore I set guards in the lowest parts of the space behind the wall, in the open places. I set the people by family groups with their swords, their spears, and their bows.
14Nga akilen lah mwet uh fosrnga, ouinge nga fahk nu selos, ac nu sin mwet kol ac mwet pwapa, “Nik kowos sangeng sin mwet lokoalok lasr. Esam lupan fulat ac ku sakirik lun LEUM GOD , ac kowos in mweun ke mwet wiowos, tulik nutuwos, mutan kiowos, ac acn suwos.”
14I looked, and rose up, and said to the nobles, to the rulers, and to the rest of the people, “Don’t 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.”
15Mwet lokoalok lasr elos lohng lah kut etu tari pwapa lalos, ac elos akilen tuh God El sikulya lemlem lalos. Na kut nukewa folokla in sifil musai pot uh.
15When our enemies heard that it was known to us, and God had brought their counsel to nothing, all of us returned to the wall, everyone to his work.
16In pacl sac me, tafu mwet luk uh orekma ke musa, ac tafu topangi mwet lokoalok. Elos nukum nuknuk in mweun ac sruokya osra, mwe loeyuk, ac pisr natulos. Ac mwet kolyasr elos arulana sang ku lalos in akpulaikye mwet
16From that time forth, half of my servants did the work, and half of them held the spears, the shields, the bows, and the coats of mail; and the rulers were behind all the house of Judah.
17su musai pot uh. Finne elos su til kufwen mwe orekma, elos orekma ke la paolos ac ke lac po ngia elos sruok mwe anwuk natulos.
17Those who built the wall, and those who bore burdens loaded themselves; everyone with one of his hands did the work, and with the other held his weapon.
18Ac mwet musa nukewa elos sripisrya cutlass natulos ke pupalos. Mwet se ma ac sulkakin pacl in mweun ke pusren mwe ukuk el tu na siskuk.
18Among the builders, everyone wore his sword at his side, and so built. He who sounded the trumpet was by me.
19Nga fahk nu sin mwet uh ac mwet pwapa ac mwet kol lalos, “Ke sripen orekma uh arulana yohk, kut ac muta loes inmasrlosr sie sin sie fin pot uh.
19I said to the nobles, and to the rulers and to the rest of the people, “The work is great and widely spread out, and we are separated on the wall, far from one another.
20Kowos fin lohng pusren ukuk, aksaye fahsreni nu yuruk. God lasr uh ac fah mweun kacsr.”
20Wherever you hear the sound of the trumpet, rally there to us. Our God will fight for us.”
21Ouinge len nukewa, mutawauk ke kusrun len uh nwe ke itu uh takak ke fong, tafu sesr orekma ke pot uh, ac tafu tu sruok osra in mweun ac topang mwet lokoalok uh.
21So we did the work. Half of the people held the spears from the rising of the morning until the stars appeared.
22Ke pacl se inge, nga fahk nu sin mwet kol orekma uh lah elos, ac mwet kasru lalos nukewa, in mutana Jerusalem ke fong uh, tuh kut in ku in forfor taran siti uh ke fong, ac orekma ke len.
22Likewise at the same time I said to the people, “Let everyone with his servant lodge within Jerusalem, that in the night they may be a guard to us, and may labor in the day.”
23Nga tiana sarukla nuknuk luk uh, finne ke fong, ac mwet wiyu su kulansupweyu ac karinginyu elos oru oapana. Ac kut nukewa sruok na mwe mweun natusr inpaosr.
23So neither I, nor my brothers, nor my servants, nor the men of the guard who followed me took off our clothes. Everyone took his weapon to the water.
