Da Peopo Dat Stay Agains Da Jews Make Plan Fo Fight
1Wen Sanballat find out dat us guys stay build da wall one mo time, he get real mad, an he make fun a us Jews. 2In front his frenz an in front da Samaria army guys, Sanballat tell, “Wat dese Jew guys stay doing?! Dey tink dey can build dat wall one mo time, o wat?! Dey tink dey can make sacrifice ova dea?! Dey tink dey can pau do da work in one day?! Dey tink dey can find da big cut stones inside da dirt piles an make um fo dem come good one mo time?! Cuz dey stay all burn up. No way dey can!”
3Tobiah, da Ammon guy, he stan dea nex to Sanballat. He tell: “Dass right! Wat dey stay build, if one wild dog climb on top um, da whole stone wall goin fall down!”
4Den dis how I pray:
“God, you da God us guys pray to, so lissen us!
Dey no like us guys.
Dey like us guys feel shame.
But make um so dem da ones get shame!
Make odda peopo take ova dem
An make um prisonas
Dat gotta go live anodda land!
5No hide da bad tings dey do.
No take away dea shame,
No foget da bad kine tings dey do
Cuz dey make da builda guys come real sore inside!”
6Us guys wen build da wall till da whole wall stay join togedda awready an no mo puka, an get ony half way mo fo build. Dat happen cuz da peopo go all out fo work.
7But den, Sanballat an Tobiah an da Arab guys an da Ammon guys an da Ashdod guys, dey hear dat da work fo fix da Jerusalem town wall stay go good, an dat da peopo start fo fill up da places wea da wall stay bus up. Sanballat dem come real huhu bout dat. 8Dey all make plan fo come fight da Jerusalem town an make da peopo dea come all hamajang so dey donno wat dey stay do. 9But us guys pray to oua God, an put security guards day time an nite time all ova da place fo watch out fo dem guys.
10But da Judah ohana guys tell, “Da guys dat bring da stuff fo fix da wall, dey tired awready. Get plenny junks from da bus up wall, az why us guys no can build da new wall.”
11An da guys dat stay agains us tell, “Wen us guys go afta da Jew guys, dey no goin know we dea, an dey no goin see us till we stay right dea wit dem. Den we kill um an make da work stop.”
12Da Jew guys dat live nea da guys dat stay agains us, dey come Jerusalem plenny times an tell us, “From ery place da Sanballat guys live, dey goin come back hea an fight us guys!”
13Az why I put peopo, one ohana fo ery place, behind da low places wea da wall no stay fix yet, wit swords an spears an bows an arrows. 14Afta I check how dey all stay, den I stan up in front da alii guys, da main leada guys, an all da odda guys. I tell um, “No sked dose Sanballat peopo! Tink plenny bout da Boss. He awesome, an good you sked a him. So den, fight fo help yoa braddah guys, an yoa boys an girls, yoa wifes, an yoa houses!”
15Da guys dat stay agains us find out dat us guys know wat dey plan fo do, an dat God jam up dea plan awready. So us guys go back fo work on da wall, an all dem stay work on da wall jalike befoa. 16From dat time, half my young guys do da construction work, an da odda half make ready da spears, an da shields, da bows an arrows, an da metal plate kine body armor. Da leada guys stay right dea behind da Judah peopo. 17Da guys building da wall, an da guys bringing dem stuff, dey do dea work so all dem get one hand fo do da work, an in da odda hand he get someting fo fight wit. 18Ery builda guy get one sword he tie aroun him. Da guy dat blow da sheep horn trumpet, he stay by me. 19I tell da alii guys, da main leada guys, an all da odda guys, “Get peopo stay work all ova da place, you know. An all us guys stay far from da nex guy on top da wall. 20Any place you hear da trumpet noise, dass da place you gotta go fo meet us. Oua God, he goin fight fo help us!”
21Az how us guys do da work. Half da guys stay ready wit da spears, from befo da sun come up till you can see da stars. 22I tell da peopo dat time too, “All da guys an da ones dat work fo dem, dey gotta stay nite time inside Jerusalem, fo dem help guard nite time, an day time dey work.” 23All dat time, me an my worka guys an da security guard guys dat stay by me, all us guys neva take off oua clotheses. All us guys get someting fo fight wit, even wen we go fo drink watta.
