Ha:ga:iai 1
1 Be ode ageyadu amoga, Da: liase da Besia soge amo hina bagade hamone ouligi esalu, amola oubi gafe amoga eso agega, Hina Gode da Ha: ga: iai ema sia: sia: i. Amola Ha: ga: iai da alofele, amo sia: Yuda eagene ouligisu dunu amola Selababele (Sia: lediele egefe) amola gobele salasu ouligisu dunu Yosiua (Yihosada: ge egefe), ilima bu sia: i.
In the second year of the reign of king Darius, on the first day of the sixth month, the Lord sent a message through the prophet Haggai to Zerubbabel, son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua, son of Jehozadak, the high priest.
2 Hina Gode Bagadedafa da Ha: ga: iaima amane sia: i, “Isala: ili dunu ilia da amane sia: sa, ‘Debolo Diasu bu gagumu esodafa da hame doaga: i.’”
The Lord Almighty says this: the people say, “This isn't the proper time to rebuild the Lord's house.”
3 Amalalu, Hina Gode Ea sia: amo da dunu huluane ilia nabima: ne, balofede dunu Ha: ga: iaima sia: ne i.
Then the Lord sent a message through the prophet Haggai, saying,
4 Hina Gode da amane sia: i, “Na dunu fi abuliba: le ilila: diasu amo noga: le gaguli esala, amola Na Sia: ne Gadosu Diasu amo bu wadela: lesi dagoi ba: sala: ?
Is it the proper time for you to live in your paneled houses while this house remains a ruin?
5 Dilia da abuliba: le dilima hou doaga: ga: lalebe amo hame ba: sala: ?
So the Lord Almighty says this: Think about what you're doing!
6 Dilia da gagoma bagade sagai galu, be amomane bagade hame fai. Dilia da ha: i manu gala be dili sadini manu defele hame gala. Dilia da waini hano manu gala, be dilia da waini hano hanai gumimu defele hame gala. Dilia da abula gala, be bagahameba: le, dilia da: i hame hougala: sa. Dunu da muni lamusa: hawa: hamosa, be amomane esaloma: ne lamu liligi amo defele hame ba: sa.
You have sown much but harvested little. You eat but you're still hungry. You drink but you're still thirsty. You put on clothes but you're still cold. You work hard to earn money but put it in a bag full of holes.
7 Di da abuliba: le, amo hou doaga: be hame ba: bela: ?
The Lord Almighty says this: Think about what you're doing!
8 Defea, wahadafa agoloba: le heda: le, diasu gagusu ifa lidima, amola Na Debolo Diasu mugului amo bu buga: le gaguma. Amasea Na da dilima nodomu amola dilia da Nama defele nodone sia: ne gadomu.
Go into the hills and bring wood to build the house. This will please me and honor me, says the Lord.
9 Dilia da ifabi ganodini ha: i manu bagade lamusa: dawa: i galu. Amomane ha: i manu da dadamini aguni manoba, Na da amo dadami fulabole fasi dagoi. Abuliba: le, Na agoane hamobela: ? Bai Na Debolo Diasu da mugululi sia: i dagoiba: le. Be dilia da mae dawa: le, dilia diasu fawane gagulala.
You were hoping for so much, but look, it turned out to be so little. Everything you brought home I blew away. And why was that? Because my house remains a ruin while you are preoccupied with building your own houses, declares the Lord Almighty.
10 Amaiba: le, Na da diligili gibu amola ha: i manu hame iaha.
That's why the clouds of heaven refused to send rain, and the earth refused to produce crops.
11 Na da dilia sogega esoi bagade i dagoi. Dilia soge agolo, gagoma sagai, waini sagai, olefe ifa sagai, dilia sagai liligi huluane amola dunu fi amola ohe fi huluane amo da esoi bagade ba: sa.
I called for a drought on the land, on the hills, on the grain fields, on the vineyards, and on the olive groves—on whatever the earth produces—and on people and livestock, on everything you do!
12 Amalalu, Selababele, Yosiua amola dunu fi huluane (amo da Ba: bilone mugului asili buhagi), ilia Hina Gode Ea hamoma: ne sia: i defele hamoi. Ilia da beda: ne, balofede dunu Ha: ga: iai (Hina Gode Ea Sia: Alofesu dunu) amo ea sia: nabawane hamoi.
Then Zerubbabel, son of Shealtiel, Joshua, son of Jehozadak, the high priest, together with all the remaining people, paid attention to what the Lord said, and to the words of Haggai the prophet that the Lord their God had sent. The people showed reverence before the Lord.
13 Amalalu, Ha: ga: iai da Hina Gode Ea sia: amo Isala: ili dunuma alofele adoi, amane, “Na da dafawane ilegesa. Na da dili hamedafa yolesimu.”
Then Haggai, the Lord's messenger, delivered this message from the Lord telling the people, I am with you! says the Lord.
14 Hina Gode da Selababele, Yuda eagene ouligisu dunu, gobele salasu ouligisu dunu Yosiua amola dunu huluane amo da mugululi asili buhagi, amo ilia da Debolo Diasu bu gaguma: ne, Hina Gode da ilia a: silibu denesi dagoi. Ilia da ilia Hina Gode Bagadedafa Ea Debolo Diasu gaguma: ne, hawa: hamosu mui.
The Lord inspired Zerubbabel, son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and Joshua, son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and all the remaining people. They came and began work on the house of the Lord Almighty.
15 Ilia da oubi gafeale amola eso 24 amo Da: liase ea hina bagade ouligisu eso amoga, amo hawa: hamosu mui.
This happened on the twenty-fourth day of the sixth month in the second year of the reign of king Darius.
