28:2 a Lv 23:23-25; Kbl 29:1-6 b Ma 31:11Ku lunaku olw’olubereberye olw’omwezi ogw’omusanvu, Ezera kabona n’aleeta Ekitabo ky’Amateeka mu maaso g’ekibiina ekyalimu abasajja n’abakazi n’abalala abaali basobola okutegeera. 38:3 Nek 3:26N’akisomera mu kifo ekigazi mu maaso g’Omulyango gw’Amazzi mu ddoboozi ery’omwanguka, okuva ku makya okutuusa essaawa mukaaga ez’omu tuntu, mu maaso g’abasajja n’abakazi n’abalala abasobola okutegeera. Abantu bonna ne batega amatu okuwulira ebyava mu Kitabo ky’Amateeka.
48:4 2By 6:13Ezera omuwandiisi n’ayimirira ku kituuti eky’embaawo kye baazimbira omukolo ogwo. Mattisiya, ne Sema, ne Anaya, ne Uliya, ne Kirukiya ne Maaseya be baamuliraana ku mukono gwe ogwa ddyo, ate Pedaya, ne Misayeri, ne Malukiya, ne Kasimu, ne Kasubaddana, ne Zekkaliya ne Mesullamu be baamuliraana ku mukono gwe ogwa kkono.
58:5 Bal 3:20Awo Ezera n’abikkula ekitabo, abantu bonna nga bamutunuulidde kubanga ekifo we yali ayimiridde kyali waggulu w’abantu bonna, era bwe yali ng’ayanjuluza ekitabo, abantu bonna ne bayimirira. 68:6 Kuv 4:31; Ezr 9:5; 1Ti 2:8Ezera ne yeebaza Mukama Katonda omukulu; abantu bonna ne bayimusa emikono gyabwe ne baddamu nti, “Amiina! Amiina!” Ne bavuunama amaaso gaabwe ku ttaka ne basinza Mukama.

98:9 a Nek 7:1, 65, 70 b Ma 12:7, 12; 16:14-15Naye Nekkemiya owessaza, ne Ezera kabona era omuwandiisi, n’Abaleevi abaali bayigiriza abantu, ne bagamba abantu bonna nti, “Olunaku lwa leero lutukuvu eri Mukama Katonda wammwe; temunakuwala so temukaaba.”
108:10 a 1Sa 25:8; Luk 14:12-14 b Lv 23:40; Ma 12:18; 16:11, 14-15Nekkemiya n’abagamba nti, “Mugende mulye ebyassava, munywe n’ebiwoomerera, muweerezeeko n’abo abatalina kye bateeseteese. Leero lunaku lutukuvu eri Mukama, temunakuwala, kubanga essanyu eriva eri Mukama ge maanyi gammwe.”
11Awo Abaleevi ne bakkakkanya abantu bonna, nga boogera nti, “Mubeere bakkakkamu kubanga leero lunaku lutukuvu. Temunakuwala.”
128:12 Es 9:22Oluvannyuma abantu bonna ne beddirayo ewaabwe ne balya ne banywa ne baweerezaako ne bannaabwe abatalina kyakulya, era ne basanyuka nnyo, kubanga baategeera amakulu g’ebigambo ebyabategeezebwa.

Ne basanyuka nnyo nnyini.

1And all the people gathered themselves together as one man into the street that was before the water gate; and they spake unto Ezra the scribe to bring the book of the law of Moses, which the LORD had commanded to Israel. 2And Ezra the priest brought the law before the congregation both of men and women, and all that could hear with understanding, upon the first day of the seventh month.8.2 that…: Heb. that understood in hearing 3And he read therein before the street that was before the water gate from the morning until midday, before the men and the women, and those that could understand; and the ears of all the people were attentive unto the book of the law.8.3 from…: Heb. from the light 4And Ezra the scribe stood upon a pulpit of wood, which they had made for the purpose; and beside him stood Mattithiah, and Shema, and Anaiah, and Urijah, and Hilkiah, and Maaseiah, on his right hand; and on his left hand, Pedaiah, and Mishael, and Malchiah, and Hashum, and Hashbadana, Zechariah, and Meshullam.8.4 pulpit…: Heb. tower of wood 5And Ezra opened the book in the sight of all the people; (for he was above all the people;) and when he opened it, all the people stood up:8.5 sight: Heb. eyes 6And Ezra blessed the LORD, the great God. And all the people answered, Amen, Amen, with lifting up their hands: and they bowed their heads, and worshipped the LORD with their faces to the ground. 7Also Jeshua, and Bani, and Sherebiah, Jamin, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodijah, Maaseiah, Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Hanan, Pelaiah, and the Levites, caused the people to understand the law: and the people stood in their place. 8So they read in the book in the law of God distinctly, and gave the sense, and caused them to understand the reading.
9¶ And Nehemiah, which is the Tirshatha, and Ezra the priest the scribe, and the Levites that taught the people, said unto all the people, This day is holy unto the LORD your God; mourn not, nor weep. For all the people wept, when they heard the words of the law.8.9 the Tirshatha: or, the governor 10Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our Lord: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the LORD is your strength. 11So the Levites stilled all the people, saying, Hold your peace, for the day is holy; neither be ye grieved. 12And all the people went their way to eat, and to drink, and to send portions, and to make great mirth, because they had understood the words that were declared unto them.
13¶ And on the second day were gathered together the chief of the fathers of all the people, the priests, and the Levites, unto Ezra the scribe, even to understand the words of the law.8.13 to understand…: or, that they might instruct in the words of the law 14And they found written in the law which the LORD had commanded by Moses, that the children of Israel should dwell in booths in the feast of the seventh month:8.14 by: Heb. by the hand of 15And that they should publish and proclaim in all their cities, and in Jerusalem, saying, Go forth unto the mount, and fetch olive branches, and pine branches, and myrtle branches, and palm branches, and branches of thick trees, to make booths, as it is written.
16¶ So the people went forth, and brought them, and made themselves booths, every one upon the roof of his house, and in their courts, and in the courts of the house of God, and in the street of the water gate, and in the street of the gate of Ephraim. 17And all the congregation of them that were come again out of the captivity made booths, and sat under the booths: for since the days of Jeshua the son of Nun unto that day had not the children of Israel done so. And there was very great gladness. 18Also day by day, from the first day unto the last day, he read in the book of the law of God. And they kept the feast seven days; and on the eighth day was a solemn assembly, according unto the manner.8.18 a solemn…: Heb. a restraint
