1 하가랴의 아들 느헤미야의 말이라
● 아닥사스다 王(왕) 第(제) 二十年(이십년) 기슬르月(월)에 내가 수산宮(궁)에 있더니

The words of Nehemiah son of Hacaliah: In the month of Kislev in the twentieth year, while I was in the citadel of Susa,

The words of Nehemiah the son of Hachaliah. And it came to pass in the month Chisleu, in the twentieth year, as I was in Shushan the palace,

2 나의 한 兄弟(형제) 中(중) 하나니가 두어 사람과 함께 유다에서 이르렀기로 내가 그 사로잡힘을 免(면)하고 남아있는 유다 사람과 예루살렘 形便(형편)을 물은즉
느7:2

Hanani, one of my brothers, came from Judah with some other men, and I questioned them about the Jewish remnant that survived the exile, and also about Jerusalem.

That Hanani, one of my brethren, came, he and certain men of Judah; and I asked them concerning the Jews that had escaped, which were left of the captivity, and concerning Jerusalem.

3 저희가 내게 이르되 사로잡힘을 免(면)하고 남은 者(자)가 그 道(도)에서 큰 患難(환난)을 만나고 凌辱(능욕)을 받으며 예루살렘 城(성)은 毁破(훼파)되고 城門(성문)들은 燒火(소화)되었다 하는지라

They said to me, "Those who survived the exile and are back in the province are in great trouble and disgrace. The wall of Jerusalem is broken down, and its gates have been burned with fire."

And they said unto me, The remnant that are left of the captivity there in the province are in great affliction and reproach: the wall of Jerusalem also is broken down, and the gates thereof are burned with fire.

4 내가 이 말을 듣고 앉아서 울고 數日(수일) 동안 슬퍼하며 하늘의 하나님 앞에 禁食(금식)하며 祈禱(기도)하여

When I heard these things, I sat down and wept. For some days I mourned and fasted and prayed before the God of heaven.

And it came to pass, when I heard these words, that I sat down and wept, and mourned certain days, and fasted, and prayed before the God of heaven,

5 가로되 하늘의 하나님 여호와 크고 두려우신 하나님이여 主(주)를 사랑하고 主(주)의 誡命(계명)을 지키는 者(자)에게 言約(언약)을 지키시며 矜恤(긍휼)을 베푸시는 主(주)여 懇求(간구)하나이다

Then I said: "O LORD, God of heaven, the great and awesome God, who keeps his covenant of love with those who love him and obey his commands,

And said, I beseech thee, O LORD God of heaven, the great and terrible God, that keepeth covenant and mercy for them that love him and observe his commandments:

6 이제 종이 主(주)의 종 이스라엘 子孫(자손)을 爲(위)하여 晝夜(주야)로 祈禱(기도)하오며 이스라엘 子孫(자손)의 主(주) 앞에 犯罪(범죄)함을 自服(자복)하오니 主(주)는 귀를 기울이시며 눈을 여시사 종의 祈禱(기도)를 들으시옵소서 나와 나의 아비 집이 犯罪(범죄)하여

let your ear be attentive and your eyes open to hear the prayer your servant is praying before you day and night for your servants, the people of Israel. I confess the sins we Israelites, including myself and my father's house, have committed against you.

Let thine ear now be attentive, and thine eyes open, that thou mayest hear the prayer of thy servant, which I pray before thee now, day and night, for the children of Israel thy servants, and confess the sins of the children of Israel, which we have sinned against thee: both I and my father's house have sinned.

7 主(주)를 向(향)하여 甚(심)히 惡(악)을 行(행)하여 主(주)의 종 모세에게 主(주)께서 命(명)하신 誡命(계명)과 律例(율례)規例(규례)를 지키지 아니하였나이다

We have acted very wickedly toward you. We have not obeyed the commands, decrees and laws you gave your servant Moses.

We have dealt very corruptly against thee, and have not kept the commandments, nor the statutes, nor the judgments, which thou commandedst thy servant Moses.

8 옛적에 主(주)께서 主(주)의 종 모세에게 命(명)하여 가라사대 萬一(만일) 너희가 犯罪(범죄)하면 내가 너희를 列國(열국) 中(중)에 흩을 것이요

Remember the instruction you gave your servant Moses, saying, 'If you are unfaithful, I will scatter you among the nations,

Remember, I beseech thee, the word that thou commandedst thy servant Moses, saying, If ye transgress, I will scatter you abroad among the nations:

9 萬一(만일) 내게로 돌아와서 내 誡命(계명)을 지켜 行(행)하면 너희 쫓긴 者(자)가 하늘 끝에 있을찌라도 내가 거기서 부터 모아 내 이름을 두려고 擇(택)한 곳에 돌아오게 하리라 하신 말씀을 이제 請(청)컨대 記憶(기억)하옵소서

but if you return to me and obey my commands, then even if your exiled people are at the farthest horizon, I will gather them from there and bring them to the place I have chosen as a dwelling for my Name.'

But if ye turn unto me, and keep my commandments, and do them; though there were of you cast out unto the uttermost part of the heaven, yet will I gather them from thence, and will bring them unto the place that I have chosen to set my name there.

10 이들은 主(주)께서 일찍 큰 權能(권능)과 强(강)한 손으로 救贖(구속)하신 主(주)의 종이요 主(주)의 百姓(백성)이니이다

They are your servants and your people, whom you redeemed by your great strength and your mighty hand.

Now these are thy servants and thy people, whom thou hast redeemed by thy great power, and by thy strong hand.

11 主(주)여 求(구)하오니 귀를 기울이사 종의 祈禱(기도)와 主(주)의 이름을 敬畏(경외)하기를 기뻐하는 종들의 祈禱(기도)를 들으시고 오늘날 종으로 亨通(형통)하여 이 사람 앞에서 恩惠(은혜)를 입게 하옵소서 하였나니 그 때에 내가 王(왕)의 술 官員(관원)이 되었었느니라
스2:1

O Lord, let your ear be attentive to the prayer of this your servant and to the prayer of your servants who delight in revering your name. Give your servant success today by granting him favor in the presence of this man." I was cupbearer to the king.

O Lord, I beseech thee, let now thine ear be attentive to the prayer of thy servant, and to the prayer of thy servants, who desire to fear thy name: and prosper, I pray thee, thy servant this day, and grant him mercy in the sight of this man. For I was the king's cupbearer.
