Asi Sanibharati akati achinzwa kuti tovaka rusvingo, akatsamwa, akava neshungu kwazvo, akaseka vaJudha.But it came to pass, that when Sanballat heard that we builded the wall, he was wroth, and took great indignation, and mocked the Jews.
Akataura nehama dzake nehondo yeSamaria, akati, VaJudha ava vasina simba vanobateiko? Vachazvisimbisa panhare here? Vachabayira here? Vachapedza nezuva rimwe here? Vachararamisa mabwe pamaturunhuru, zvaatsva here?And he spake before his brethren and the army of Samaria, and said, What do these feeble Jews? will they fortify themselves? will they sacrifice? will they make an end in a day? will they revive the stones out of the heaps of the rubbish which are burned?
Tobhia muAmoni akanga amire naye, akati, Chinhu chipi nechipi chavanovaka havo, kana gava rikakwirapo, richakoromora rusvingo rwavo rwamabwe.Now Tobiah the Ammonite was by him, and he said, Even that which they build, if a fox go up, he shall even break down their stone wall.
Inzwai henyu, Mwari wedu, Nokuti tinoninipiswa; dzoserai kushora kwavo pamisoro yavo, muvarege vapambwe panyika yavatapwa.Hear, O our God; for we are despised: and turn their reproach upon their own head, and give them for a prey in the land of captivity:
Regai kufukidza zvakaipa zvavo, nezvivi zvavo ngazvirege kudzimwa pamberi penyu; nokuti vakakutsamwisai pamberi pavavaki.And cover not their iniquity, and let not their sin be blotted out from before thee: for they have provoked thee to anger before the builders.
Naizvozvo takavaka rusvingo; rusvingo rwose rukabatanidzwa kusvikira pahafu yokukwirira kwarwo; nokuti vanhu vakanga vachida kubata.So built we the wall; and all the wall was joined together unto the half thereof: for the people had a mind to work.
Asi Sanibharati, naTobhia, navaArabhia, navaAmoni, navaAshidhodhi, vakati vachinzwa kuti basa rokugadzira masvingo ropfuurira mberi zvakanaka, kuti pakanga pakoromoka podzivirwa, vakatsamwa kwazvo,But it came to pass, that when Sanballat, and Tobiah, and the Arabians, and the Ammonites, and the Ashdodites, heard that the walls of Jerusalem were made up, and that the breaches began to be stopped, then they were very wroth,
vakarangana vose kundorwa neJerusaremu, nokuvakanganisapo.And conspired all of them together to come and to fight against Jerusalem, and to hinder it.
Asi isu takanyengetera kuna Mwari wedu, tikaisa varindi kuvarindira masikati nousiku nemhaka yavo.Nevertheless we made our prayer unto our God, and set a watch against them day and night, because of them.
Ipapo vaJudha vakati, Simba ravatakuri vemitoro raderera, uye marara aripo mazhinji; saka hatigoni kuvaka rusvingo.And Judah said, The strength of the bearers of burdens is decayed, and there is much rubbish; so that we are not able to build the wall.
Vadzivisi vedu vakati, Ngavarege kuziva kana kuona chinhu, kusvikira tava pakati pavo, tikavauraya nokumisa basa.And our adversaries said, They shall not know, neither see, till we come in the midst among them, and slay them, and cause the work to cease.
Zvino vaJudha vakanga vagere navo, vakati vachisvika kwatiri, vachibva kunzvimbo dzose, vakati kwatiri kagumi, Munofanira kudzokera kwatiri.And it came to pass, that when the Jews which dwelt by them came, they said unto us ten times, From all places whence ye shall return unto us they will be upon you.
Saka ndakaisa vamwe vanhu panzvimbo dzakaderera seri kworusvingo, panzvimbo dzakanga dzakashama, ipapo ndakaisa vanhu nedzimba dzavo, vakabata minondo yavo, namapfumo avo, nouta hwavo.Therefore set I in the lower places behind the wall, and on the higher places, I even set the people after their families with their swords, their spears, and their bows.
Ndikatarira, ndikasimuka, ndikati kuvakuru nokuvatariri nokuna vamwe vanhu, Regai kuvatya; rangarirai Jehovha mukuru anotyisa, murwire hama dzenyu, navanakomana venyu, navakunda venyu, navakadzi venyu, nedzimba dzenyu.And I looked, and rose up, and said unto the nobles, and to the rulers, and to the rest of the people, Be not ye afraid of them: remember the Lord, which is great and terrible, and fight for your brethren, your sons, and your daughters, your wives, and your houses.
Zvino vavengi vedu vakati vanzwa kuti zvazikanwa nesu, uye kuti Mwari akakonesa kurangana kwavo, isu tikadzokera tose kurusvingo, mumwe nomumwe kubasa rake.And it came to pass, when our enemies heard that it was known unto us, and God had brought their counsel to nought, that we returned all of us to the wall, every one unto his work.
Zvino kubva panguva iyo hafu yavaranda vangu vakabata pabasa, asi hafu yavo vakabata mapfumo, nenhovo, nouta, nenguvo dzamatare; uye varairi vakanga vari shure kwavose veimba yaJudha.And it came to pass from that time forth, that the half of my servants wrought in the work, and the other half of them held both the spears, the shields, and the bows, and the habergeons; and the rulers were behind all the house of Judah.
Vaivaka rusvingo, navaitakura mitoro, vaitutira; mumwe nomumwe wakabata noruoko rwake rumwe pabasa, asi norumwe akanga akabata nhumbi yake yokurwa nayo;They which builded on the wall, and they that bare burdens, with those that laded, every one with one of his hands wrought in the work, and with the other hand held a weapon.
uye vavaki mumwe nomumwe akanga anomunondo wake wakasungirwa pachiuno chake; vakavaka saizvozvo. Muridzi wehwamanda wakamira neni.For the builders, every one had his sword girded by his side, and so builded. And he that sounded the trumpet was by me.
Ndikati kuvakuru nokuvabati nokuna vamwe vanhu: Mubato mukuru wakapararira, isu takatarangana pamusoro porusvingo, mumwe ari kure nomumwe;And I said unto the nobles, and to the rulers, and to the rest of the people, The work is great and large, and we are separated upon the wall, one far from another.
papi napapi pamunonzwa kurira kwehwamanda, uyai ikoko kwatiri; Mwari wedu achatirwira.In what place therefore ye hear the sound of the trumpet, resort ye thither unto us: our God shall fight for us.
Tikabata pabasa saizvozvo; hafu yavo vaibata kubva mangwanani kusvikira nyeredzi dzichibuda.So we laboured in the work: and half of them held the spears from the rising of the morning till the stars appeared.
Nenguva iyo ndikati kuvanhu, Mumwe nomumwe anomuranda wake ngaavate muJerusaremu, kuti vatirinde usiku, vabate masikati.Likewise at the same time said I unto the people, Let every one with his servant lodge within Jerusalem, that in the night they may be a guard to us, and labour on the day.
Naizvozvo ini kunyange hama dzangu, kana varanda vangu, kana varindi vainditevera, hakuna nomumwe wedu akabvisa nguvo dzake, mumwe nomumwe wakandonwa mvura nenhumbi dzake dzokurwa nadzo.So neither I, nor my brethren, nor my servants, nor the men of the guard which followed me, none of us put off our clothes, saving that every one put them off for washing.
