UNEHEMIYA 7

1Emva kokugqitywa kodonga ndafakela iingcango ezindaweni zazo, kwaza kwamiselwa abalindi-masango, iimvumi, nabaLevi. 2Ndamisela umntakwethu uHanani ukuba avelele iJerusalem, ekunye noHananiya ingqwayi-ngqwayi yenqaba, kuba wayengumfo onentembeko, uThixo emhlonela ngaphezu koninzi lwabantu. 3Kubo ke ndathi: “Makangavulwa amasango aseJerusalem ide ibe seyiqinile imini. Ngethuba besekhona abalindi-masango mabawavale mba amasango ngemivalo. Kananjalo miselani abemi baseJerusalem babe ngabalindi; abanye kwiindawo ezithile, abanye ke kufuphi nezindlu zabo.”

Uludwe lwabathinjwa ababuyileyo

4Ke kaloku isixeko esi sasisikhulu sithe gabalala, kodwa bembalwa abantu ngaphakathi, nezindlu ke zingekakhiwa. 5Ngoku ke uThixo wam wathetha nam, ndaza ke ndaziqokelela izikhulu, amaphakathi noluntu luphela, ndamisela ukuba bonke babhalwe ngokwemizi yabo. Ndalufumana uludwe lwemilibo yokuzalwa kwâbo babebuye kuqala. Ke lona lwalumi ngolu hlobo: 6Naba ke abantu beli phondo ababuyileyo ekuthinjweni ababethinjwe ngukumkani uNabhukadenezare waseBhabheli. Babuyela eJerusalem nakwaJuda, yangulowo nalowo waphindela kwidolophu yakowabo, 7ndawonye noZerubhabheli, uYeshuwa, uNehemiya, uAzariya, uRamiya, uNamani, uModekayi, uBhileshan, uMisperete, uBhigwayi, uNehum noBhana.
