Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1Now when it was reported to Sanballat, Tobiah, Geshem the Arabian, and to the rest of our enemies that I had built the wall, and that there was no breach left in it (though even to that time I had not set up the doors in the gates),
1Sanballat, Tobiah, Geshem, ac mwet lokoalok lasr saya elos lohngak lah kut aksafyela tari pot uh, ac wangin acn lula ma soenna fonfon uh, tusruktu soenna tulokyak srungul nu ke mutunpot uh.
2Sanballat and Geshem sent to me, saying, “Come! Let’s meet together in the villages in the plain of Ono.” But they intended to harm me.
2Ouinge Sanballat ac Geshem sapma nu sik tuh nga in osun yoroltal in sie siti ke acn tupasrpasr in acn Ono. Kutasrik se laltal pa inge, tuh eltal in orek lokoalok nu sik.
3I sent messengers to them, saying, “I am doing a great work, so that I can’t come down. Why should the work cease while I leave it and come down to you?”
3Nga supwala mwet utuk kas in fahk nu seltal, “Nga kafofo ke sie orekma na yohk sripa, ac nga tia ku in fahsrot. Nga ac tia tulokinya orekma uh tuh nga in tufoki nu yurumtal.”
4They sent to me four times like this; and I answered them the same way.
4Pacl akosr eltal supu kas sacna, ac ke kais sie pacl nga topkolos ke top sacna.
5Then Sanballat sent his servant to me the same way the fifth time with an open letter in his hand,
5Na Sanballat el supwama sie sin mwet kulansap lal nu yuruk ke sap soko aklimekosr, ac ma se inge tuku ke sie leta ma tia kauli.
6in which was written, “It is reported among the nations, and Gashmu says it, that you and the Jews intend to rebel. Because of that, you are building the wall. You would be their king, according to these words.
6Pa inge kas kac uh: “Geshem el fahk nu sik mu oasr kas se srumunyuk inmasrlon mutanfahl raunikutla inge lah kom ac mwet Jew akola in tuyak lain kut, pa pwanang kowos sifil musai pot an. El fahk pac mu kom sifacna nunku in oru tuh kom in tokosra faclos,
7You have also appointed prophets to proclaim of you at Jerusalem, saying, ‘There is a king in Judah!’ Now it will be reported to the king according to these words. Come now therefore, and let’s take counsel together.”
7ac kom sapkin nu sin kutu mwet palu tuh elos in sulkakin in acn Jerusalem lah kom pa tokosra lun Judah. Kalem lah Tokosra Fulat Artaxerxes el ac lohng ke ma inge, na pa nga ngisre tuh nga kom in osun ac aetuila ke ma inge nukewa.”
8Then I sent to him, saying, “There are no such things done as you say, but you imagine them out of your own heart.”
8Nga supwala top se inge nu sel: “Wangin kas pwaye ke ma kom fahk an. Ma na kom sifacna kinauk.”
9For they all would have made us afraid, saying, “Their hands will be weakened from the work, that it not be done.” But now, strengthen my hands.
9Elos srike na in aksangengye kut in tulokinya orekma uh. Na nga pre ac fahk, “Inge, O God, oru tuh nga in ku!”
10I went to the house of Shemaiah the son of Delaiah the son of Mehetabel, who was shut in at his home; and he said, “Let us meet together in God’s house, within the temple, and let’s shut the doors of the temple; for they will come to kill you. Yes, in the night they will come to kill you.”
10Ke pacl se inge, nga tuh tufokla in mutwata yorol Shemaiah su tia ku in illa liki lohm sel — el wen natul Delaiah, wen natul Mehetabel. El fahk nu sik, “Nga kom enenu in som ac tukeni wikla in Acn Mutal ke Tempul, ac lakiya srungul uh, mweyen elos ac tuku in unikomi. Siena sin fong inge elos ac tuku unikomi.”
11I said, “Should a man like me flee? Who is there that, being such as I, would go into the temple to save his life? I will not go in.”
11Na nga topuk ac fahk, “Nga tia kain mwet se ma kaing ac wikwik. Ya kom nunku mu nga ac som wikla in Tempul in molela moul luk? Nga fah tiana.”
12I discerned, and behold, God had not sent him, but he pronounced this prophecy against me. Tobiah and Sanballat had hired him.
12Ke nga nunku kac, nga akilen tuh God El tiana kaskas nu sel Shemaiah, a Tobiah ac Sanballat tuh moli nu sel elan fahk nu sik kas in sensenkakin inge.
13He was hired so that I would be afraid, do so, and sin, and that they might have material for an evil report, that they might reproach me.
13Eltal moleang nu sel elan aksangengyeyu nga in oru ma koluk, eltal in mau akkolukyela inek, ac aklusrongtenyeyu.
14“Remember, my God, Tobiah and Sanballat according to these their works, and also the prophetess Noadiah and the rest of the prophets that would have put me in fear.”
14Nga pre, “O God, esamya ma Tobiah ac Sanballat eltal orala, ac sang kaiyuk nu seltal. Esam pac mutan sac Noadiah ac mwet palu saya nukewa su tuh srike in aksangengyeyu.”
15So the wall was finished in the twenty-fifth day of Elul, in fifty-two days.
15Ke len aklongoul limekosr ke malem Elul, tukun len in orekma lumngaul luo, nufonna pot sac aksafyeyukla.
16When all our enemies heard of it, all the nations that were around us were afraid, and they lost their confidence; for they perceived that this work was done by our God.
16Ke mwet lokoalok lasr in mutunfacl ma apinkutla lohng kac, elos pulakunak lah elos mwekinla, mweyen mwet nukewa etu na lah orekma sac orekla ke kasreyuk lun God.
17Moreover in those days the nobles of Judah sent many letters to Tobiah, and Tobiah’s letters came to them.
17In pulan pacl sac nufon, leta puspis supweyuk inmasrlon mwet kol lun mwet Jew ac Tobiah.
18For there were many in Judah sworn to him because he was the son-in-law of Shecaniah the son of Arah; and his son Jehohanan had taken the daughter of Meshullam the son of Berechiah as wife.
18Mwet puspis in Judah tuh welul lac, mweyen papa talupal Tobiah pa Shecaniah, sie mwet Jew, wen natul Arah. Wikin pac lah Jehohanan, wen natul Tobiah, el payuk sin acn se natul Meshullam, wen natul Berechiah.
19Also they spoke of his good deeds before me, and reported my words to him. Tobiah sent letters to put me in fear.
19Mwet uh kaskas na ye mutuk in srumun orekma wo nukewa Tobiah el orala, ac elos fahk pac nu sel ma nukewa ma nga fahk. A el nuna supweyuk leta nu sik in srike in aksangengyeyu.
