19 And it came to pass, that when the gates of Jerusalem began to be dark before the sabbath, I commanded that the gates should be shut, and charged that they should not be opened till after the sabbath: and some of my servants set I at the gates, that there should no burden be brought in on the sabbath day.
19 Ikawa malango ya Yerusalemu yalipoanza kuwa na giza kabla ya sabato, naliamuru milango ifungwe, nikaamuru isifunguliwe hata sabato iishe; na baadhi ya watumishi wangu nikawaweka juu ya malango, ili usiingizwe mzigo wo wote siku ya sabato.
