1 Kane ochopo chiengʼ mokwongo mar dwe mar auchiel, e higa mar ariyo mar loch ruoth Darius, Jehova Nyasaye nowuoyo gi dho janabi Hagai ne Zerubabel wuod Shealtiel, mane jatend piny Juda, gi Joshua wuod Jehozadak, jadolo maduongʼ kowacho niya,
In the second yeere of King Darius, in the sixt moneth, the first day of the moneth, came ye worde of the Lord (by the ministery of the Prophet Haggai) vnto Zerubbabel the sonne of Shealtiel, a prince of Iudah, and to Iehoshua the sonne of Iehozadak the hie Priest, saying,
2 Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho niya, “Ogendinigi wacho ni, ‘Kinde pok ochopo monego gerne Nyasaye hekalu mare.’”
Thus speaketh the Lord of hostes, saying, This people say, The time is not yet come, that the Lords House should be builded.
3 Eka wach Jehova Nyasaye nobiro gi dwond janabi Hagai kawacho niya:
Then came the worde of the Lord by the ministerie of the Prophet Haggai, saying,
4 “Bende en gima ber adier ka un uwegi udakie uteu mugero mabeyo, to hekalu marani to omukore machal kama?”
Is it time for your selues to dwell in your sieled houses, and this House lie waste?
5 Ma emomiyo Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho niya, “Nonuru timbeu.
Now therefore thus saith ye Lord of hostes, Consider your owne wayes in your hearts.
6 Usechwoyo mangʼeny, to ukayo mana matin; uchiemo, to gima uchamo ok nyal yiengʼou, umetho, to ok romu; urwakoru gi lewni, to onge kata ngʼato achiel kuomu mayudo liet; to nyaka un joma nwangʼo chudo, bangʼ ka unwangʼo chudo to uketo mana ei ofuku motuch.”
Ye haue sowen much, and bring in litle: ye eate, but ye haue not ynough: ye drinke, but ye are not filled: ye clothe you, but ye be not warme: and he that earneth wages, putteth the wages into a broken bagge.
7 Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho niya, “Nonuru timbeu.
Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, Consider your owne wayes in your hearts.
8 Idh-uru udhi e gode mondo ukel yien ugernago ot manyalo morgo, kama duongʼna maler nyalo nenoree,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
Goe vp to the mountaine, and bring wood, and build this House, and I wil be fauourable in it, and I will be glorified, sayth the Lord.
9 “Usegombo yudo mangʼeny, to osetamore ma uyudo mana matin; to kata mana mano mago ma usechoko mukeloe dala, abiro kudho oko. Mani notimore nikech angʼo?” Jehova Nyasaye Maratego penjo. “Nikech hekaluna ma uweyo odongʼ gunda, ka un uwegi to uringo kudhi e uteu molos mabeyo.
Ye looked for much, and lo, it came to litle: and when ye brought it home, I did blowe vpon it. And why, sayth the Lord of hostes? Because of mine House that is waste, and ye runne euery man vnto his owne house.
10 Mano emomiyo koro Polo malo ok nyal miyou koth kata matin, kendo piny osiko mana kotwo ma ok nyal nyago gimoro.
Therefore the heauen ouer you stayed it selfe from dewe, and the earth stayed her fruite.
11 Mano emomiyo osehononu oro mondo otwo piny kaachiel gi gode, mi cham gi mzabibu kod mo zeituni, gi gik moko duto ma piny nyago ner, mondo kech omak dhano gi jamni, kendo oketh tije duto ma dhano oloso.”
And I called for a drought vpon the land, and vpon the mountaines, and vpon the corne, and vpon the wine, and vpon the oyle, vpon all that the ground bringeth foorth: both vpon men and vpon cattell, and vpon all the labour of the hands.
12 Eka Zerubabel ma wuod Shealtiel kod Joshua wuod Jehozadak, ma jadolo maduongʼ, kaachiel gi ji mamoko mane oa e twech, kane giwinjo weche Nyasaye gi weche mag janabi Hagai, kaka Jehova Nyasaye ne oore, luoro maduongʼ nomakogi e nyim Ruoth.
When Zerubbabel the sonne of Shealtiel, and Iehoshua the sonne of Iehozadak the hie Priest with all the remnant of the people, heard the voyce of the Lord their God, and the wordes of the Prophet Haggai (as the Lord their God had sent him) then the people did feare before the Lord.
13 Eka Hagai jaote mar Jehova Nyasaye, nowuoyo kod ji konyisogi weche mane Jehova Nyasaye omiye, kowacho niya, “An kodu,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
Then spake Haggai the Lords messenger in the Lords message vnto the people, saying, I am with you, sayth the Lord.
14 Eka Jehova Nyasaye nojiwo chuny Zerubabel wuod Shealtiel mane jatend piny Juda, chuny Joshua, kod chuny joma moko mane oa e twech. Negibiro kendo gichako tich e od Jehova Nyasaye Maratego ma Nyasachgi,
And the Lord stirred vp the spirite of Zerubbabel, the sonne of Shealtiel a prince of Iudah, and the spirit of Iehoshua the sonne of Iehozadak the hie Priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people, and they came, and did the worke in the House of the Lord of hostes their God.
