Haggai 2
1 In the seventh month, on the twenty-first day of the month, the word of the Lord came by Haggai the prophet, saying,
Hla rhih, hnin kul hnin khat dongkah BOEIPA ol he tonghma Haggai kut lamloh pai tih,
2 Say now to Zerubbabel, the son of Shealtiel, ruler of Judah, and to Joshua, the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and to the rest of the people,
Judah rhalboei Shealtiel capa Zerubbabel taengah khaw, khosoih puei Jehozadak capa Joshua taengah khaw, pilnam kah a meet taengah khaw thui laeh.
3 Who is there still among you who saw this house in its first glory? and how do you see it now? is it not in your eyes as nothing?
“Hlamat vaengkah a thangpomnah dongah im aka hmu te nangmih khuiah unim aka sueng? Aka hmu rhoek nang te te metlam a om coeng? Te bang te na mik dongkah a hong bangla a om moenih a?
4 But now be strong, O Zerubbabel, says the Lord; and be strong, O Joshua, son of Jehozadak, the high priest; and be strong, all you people of the land, says the Lord, and get to work: for I am with you, says the Lord of armies:
Tedae Zerubbabel aw, BOEIPA kah olphong bangla thaahuel laeh. Khosoih puei Jehozadak capa Joshua thaahuel laeh. Khohmuen pilnam boeih loh thaahuel laeh. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong coeng ni. Nangmih taengah ka om coeng dongah saii uh laeh. He tah caempuei BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
5 The agreement which I made with you when you came out of Egypt, and my spirit, are with you still; have no fear.
Ol he Egypt lamloh na lo vaengah ni nangmih taengah kang khueh coeng. Ka mueihla he na khui ah a om dongah rhih boeh.
6 For this is what the Lord of armies has said: In a short time I will make a shaking of the heavens and the earth and the sea and the dry land;
Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Vai khaw bet a om bal phoeiah tah vaan neh diklai khaw, tuitunli neh lanhak khaw ka hinghuen ni.
7 And I will make a shaking of all the nations, and the desired things of all nations will come: and I will make this house full of my glory, says the Lord of armies.
Namtom boeih te ka hinghuen vetih namtom boeih te sahnaih la ha pai uh ni. Te vaengah he im he thangpomnah ka bae sak ni tila caempuei BOEIPA loh a thui.
8 The silver is mine and the gold is mine, says the Lord of armies.
Cak he kamah kah tih sui khaw kamah kah ni. He tah caempuei BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
9 The second glory of this house will be greater than the first, says the Lord of armies: and in this place I will give peace, says the Lord of armies.
“He im thangpomnah tah lamhma lakah khaw lamhnuk ah a len om ni,” tila caempuei BOEIPA loh a thui. Te dongah he hmuen ah ngaimongnah ka paek ni. He tah caempuei BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
10 On the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, in the second year of Darius, the word of the Lord came by Haggai the prophet, saying,
Darius kah a kum bae, hla ko, hin kul hnin li vaengah BOEIPA ol te tonghma Haggai taengla pai tih,
11 These are the words of the Lord of armies: Put now a point of law to the priests, saying,
Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. “Khosoih te olkhueng dawt laeh,” a ti nah.
12 If anyone has some holy flesh folded in the skirt of his robe, will bread or soup or wine or oil or any other food be made holy if touched by his skirt? And the priests answering said, No.
Te dongah, “Hlang loh a himbai cun khuiah hmuencim maeh a phueih tih a hmoi neh buh khaw, andam khaw, misurtui khaw, situi khaw, caak te khat khat khaw, a ben te a ciim a?” a ti nah. Te vaengah khosoih rhoek loh a doo tih, “Cim mahpawh,” a ti uh.
13 Then Haggai said, Will any of these be made unclean by the touch of one who is unclean through touching a dead body? And the priests answering said, It will be made unclean.
Te phoeiah Haggai loh, “Hinglu rhalawt loh he he boeih a ben atah, a poeih nama?” a ti nah. Te vaengah khosoih rhoek a doo uh tih, “A poeih loella,” a ti uh.
14 Then Haggai said, So is this people and so is this nation before me, says the Lord; and so is every work of their hands; and the offering they give there is unclean.
Te phoeiah Haggai loh a doo tih, “Pilnam he khaw, namtom he khaw, ka mikhmuh ah te tlam ni a om. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Te dongah a kut dongkah bibi boeih neh a khuen uh long khaw amah la hnap a cuem moenih.
15 And now, give thought, looking back from this day to the time before one stone was put on another in the Temple of the Lord:
Tahae khohnin lamlong tah na thinko ah dueh uh mai laeh. BOEIPA bawkim kah lungto soah lungto a tlingtlawn hang hlan ah.
16 How, when anyone came to a store of twenty measures, there were only ten: when anyone went to the wine-store to get fifty vessels full, there were only twenty.
A om vaengah a hlom pakul lo cakhaw parha ni a lo. Sum sawmnga la a duh va-am te khaw pakul ni a lo.
17 And I sent burning and wasting and a rain of ice-drops on all the works of your hands; but still you were not turned to me, says the Lord.
Namamih khaw, nangmih kut dongkah bitat boeih khaw, mawn neh, dung neh, rhael neh kang ngawn coeng. Tedae kai taengla na mael uh moenih. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong coeng ni.
18 And now, give thought; looking on from this day, from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, from the time when the base of the Lord's house was put in its place, give thought to it.
Tahae khohnin lamlong tah na thinko ah dueh uh laeh. BOEIPA bawkim a suen hnin lamloh a hlako hnin kul hnin li so hang te na thinko ah khueh uh laeh.
19 Is the seed still in the store-house? have the vine and the fig-tree, the pomegranate and the olive-tree, still not given their fruit? from this day I will send my blessing on you.
Cangpup khuiah cangti khaw om dae nim? Misur neh thaibu khaw, tale neh olive thing khaw cuen pawh. Tahae khohnin lamlong tah yoethen kam paek pawn ni,” a ti nah.
20 And the word of the Lord came a second time to Haggai, on the twenty-fourth day of the month, saying,
Te kah hla hnin kul neh hnin li hnin ah tah BOEIPA ol he Haggai taengah a pabae la cet tih,
21 Say to Zerubbabel, ruler of Judah, I will make a shaking of the heavens and the earth,
“Judah rhalboei Zerubbabel taengah thui pah lamtah, 'Vaan neh diklai he ka hinghuen coeng.
22 Overturning the power of kingdoms; and I will send destruction on the strength of the kingdoms of the nations; by me war-carriages will be overturned with those who are in them; and the horses and the horsemen will come down, everyone by the sword of his brother.
Ram ngolkhoel te ka palet vetih namtom ram kah thaa te ka bawt sak ni. Leng neh a sokah aka ngol khaw ka palet ni. Te vaengah marhang neh a sokah aka ngol khaw, hlang khaw a manuca kah cunghang dongah kaeh uh ni.
23 In that day, says the Lord of armies, I will take you, O Zerubbabel, my servant, the son of Shealtiel, says the Lord, and will make you as a jewelled ring: for I have taken you to be mine, says the Lord of armies.
He tah caempuei BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Te khohnin ah tah ka sal Shealtiel capa Zerubbabel nang te kan loh ni. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Nang te kan coelh coeng dongah nang te kutbuen la kan khueh ni. He tah caempuei BOEIPA kah olphong ni, 'ti nah,” a ti nah.
