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 year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, in the first day of the month, came the word of YHWH by Haggai the prophet unto Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, saying,
2 Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho niya, “Ogendinigi wacho ni, ‘Kinde pok ochopo monego gerne Nyasaye hekalu mare.’”
Thus speaketh YHWH of hosts, saying, This people say, The time is not come, the time that YHWH 's house should be built.
3 Eka wach Jehova Nyasaye nobiro gi dwond janabi Hagai kawacho niya:
Then came the word of YHWH by Haggai the prophet, 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 you, O ye, to dwell in your cieled houses, and this house lie waste?
5 Ma emomiyo Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho niya, “Nonuru timbeu.
Now therefore thus saith YHWH of hosts; Consider your ways.
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 have sown much, and bring in little; ye eat, but ye have not enough; ye drink, but ye are not filled with drink; ye clothe you, but there is none warm; and he that earneth wages earneth wages to put it into a bag with holes.
7 Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho niya, “Nonuru timbeu.
Thus saith YHWH of hosts; Consider your ways.
8 Idh-uru udhi e gode mondo ukel yien ugernago ot manyalo morgo, kama duongʼna maler nyalo nenoree,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
Go up to the mountain, and bring wood, and build the house; and I will take pleasure in it, and I will be glorified, saith YHWH.
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 little; and when ye brought it home, I did blow upon it. Why? saith YHWH of hosts. Because of mine house that is waste, and ye run every man unto his own 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 heaven over you is stayed from dew, and the earth is stayed from her fruit.
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 upon the land, and upon the mountains, and upon the corn, and upon the new wine, and upon the oil, and upon that which the ground bringeth forth, and upon men, and upon cattle, and upon 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.
Then Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, with all the remnant of the people, obeyed the voice of YHWH their Elohim, and the words of Haggai the prophet, as YHWH their Elohim had sent him, and the people did fear before YHWH.
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 YHWH 's messenger in YHWH 's message unto the people, saying, I am with you, saith YHWH.
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 YHWH stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people; and they came and did work in the house of YHWH of hosts, their Elohim,
15 tarik piero ariyo gangʼwen e dwe mar auchiel e higa mar ariyo mar loch Ruoth Darius.
In the four and twentieth day of the sixth month, in the second year of Darius the king.
