Nehemiah 2

UNehemiya uvunyelwa ukuya eJerusalema

1Kwasekusithi ngenyanga kaNisani a, ngomnyaka wamatshumi amabili kaAthakisekisi inkosi b, iwayini laliphambi kwakhe, ngaphakamisa iwayini nganika inkosi c. Njalo ngangingakaze ngidane phambi kwayo. 2Inkosi yasisithi kimi: Kungani ubuso bakho budanile lokhu ungaguli d? Kakusilutho ngaphandle kokudana kwenhliziyo. Ngasengisesaba kakhulukazi e, 3ngathi enkosini: Kayiphile inkosi kuze kube nininini f! Ubuso bami bungedane ngani nxa umuzi, indawo yamangcwaba abobaba, ulunxiwa g, lamasango awo eqedwe ngomlilo h? 4Inkosi yasisithi kimi: Kuyini okudingayo? Ngasengikhuleka kuNkulunkulu wamazulu i. 5Ngathi enkosini: Uba kukuhle enkosini, njalo uba inceku yakho ithole umusa phambi kwakho, ngicela ukuthi ungithume koJuda emzini wamangcwaba abobaba, ukuze ngiwakhe. 6Inkosi yasisithi kimi, lendlovukazi ihlezi eceleni kwayo: Uhambo lwakho luzakuba ngolwesikhathi esingakanani, ubuye nini? Ngakho kwaba kuhle phambi kwenkosi ukuthi ingithume; ngasengiyinika isikhathi esimisiweyo j. 7Ngasengisithi enkosini: Uba kulungile enkosini kayinginike izincwadi eziya kubabusi bangaphetsheya komfula ukuze bangivumele ukudlula, ngize ngifike koJuda k; 8lencwadi eya kuAsafi, umphathi wegusu inkosi elalo l, ukuthi anginike izigodo zokwenza imigubazi yamasango lesigodlo esiseduze lendlu, lezomduli womuzi m, lezendlu engizangena kiyo n. Inkosi yanginika njengokwesandla esihle sikaNkulunkulu wami phezu kwami o.

9Ngasengifika kubabusi ngaphetsheya komfula, ngabanika incwadi zenkosi p. Inkosi yayithume-ke lami induna zebutho labagadi bamabhiza. 10Lapho uSanibhalathi q umHoroni r loTobiya inceku s, umAmoni t, besizwa, kwabacunula ngokucunula okukhulu ukuthi umuntu ufikile ukudingela abantwana bakoIsrayeli okuhle u. 11Ngafika-ke eJerusalema, ngaba lapho insuku ezintathu.

UNehemiya ukhuthaza abeJerusalema ukwakha imiduli yomuzi

12Ngasengisukuma ebusuku, mina lamadoda amalutshwana elami; kangitshelanga muntu lokho uNkulunkulu wami ayekufake enhliziyweni yami ukuthi ngikwenzele iJerusalema. Futhi kwakungelanyamazana kanye lami ngaphandle kwenyamazana engangiyigadile v. 13Ngasengiphuma ebusuku ngesango lesigodi, ngaqonda emthonjeni womgobho w lesangweni lomquba x, ngihlola imiduli yeJerusalema eyayidilikile y lamasango ayo ayeqedwe ngomlilo z. 14Ngasengisedlulela esangweni lomthombo aa lechibini lenkosi ab; kodwa kwakungelandawo yenyamazana ukwedlula ngaphansi kwami. 15Ngasengisenyuka ngesifula ebusuku ngihlola umduli ac; ngaphenduka, ngangena ngesango lesigodi ad, ngabuyela. 16Lababusi babengazi lapho engangiye khona lokuthi ngenzani. Kuze kube khathesi-ke ngangingatshelanga amaJuda labapristi leziphathamandla ae lezinduna labanye ababesenza umsebenzi af.

17Ngasengisithi kibo: Liyabona inhlupheko esikiyo ukuthi iJerusalema ilunxiwa ag lamasango ayo atshiswe ngomlilo ah. Wozani sakhe umduli weJerusalema ukuze singabe sisaba lihlazo ai. 18Ngasengibatshela ngesandla sikaNkulunkulu wami esasisihle phezu kwami, futhi lamazwi enkosi eyayiwakhulume kimi. Basebesithi: Asisukumeni, sakhe aj. Ngakho baqinisa izandla zabo ngokuhle ak.

19Lapho uSanibhalathi umHoroni loTobiya inceku, umAmoni, loGeshema umArabhiya al besizwa basihleka usulu, baseyisa am bathi: Iyini linto eliyenzayo? Liyayivukela inkosi yini an? 20Ngasengibabuyisela impendulo ngathi kibo: UNkulunkulu wamazulu yena uzasiphumelelisa; lathi inceku zakhe sizasukuma sakhe; kodwa lina kalilasabelo lelungelo lesikhumbuzo eJerusalema ao.
