< Aggaeus 1 >
1 In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, on the first [day] of the month, the word of the Lord came by the hand of the prophet Aggaeus, saying, Speak to Zorobabel the son of Salathiel, of the tribe of Juda, and to Jesus the son of Josedec, the high priest, saying,
Darius manghai kah a kum nit nah, a hla la hla rhuk, hnin at vaengah, BOEIPA ol te tonghma Haggai kut lamloh, Judah rhalboei Shealtiel capa Zerubbabel ham neh khosoih Jehozadak capa Joshua puei ham pai tih,
2 Thus saith the Lord Almighty, saying, This people say, The time is not come to build the house of the Lord.
Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a. thui. Pilnam he thui pah lah. 'BOEIPA im sak ham tue he, a tue pai hlan ' a ti uh he,” a ti.
3 And the word of the Lord came by the hand of the prophet Aggaeus, saying,
BOEIPA ol he tonghma Haggai kut lamloh cet bal tih,
4 Is it time for you to dwell in your ceiled houses, whereas our house is desolate?
Nangmih te namamih bueng na im khop ah khosak ham tue a? Tedae im he kaksap coeng he.
5 And now thus saith the Lord Almighty; Consider your ways, I pray you.
Te dongah caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a. thui coeng. Na longpuei te na thinko ah dueh laeh.
6 Ye have sown much, but brought in little; ye have eaten, and are not satisfied; ye have drunk, and are not satisfied with drink, ye have clothed yourselves, and have not become warm thereby: and he that earns wages has gathered [them] into a bag full of holes.
Muep na tuh dae a yol la pawk. A caak dae a cungnah la om pawh. A ok akhaw rhuihmil hae pawh. Bai cakhaw a bae hae moenih. Kutloh loh a kutloh akhaw hnocun put hae.
7 Thus saith the Lord Almighty; Consider your ways.
Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a. thui. Na longpuei te na thinko ah dueh laeh.
8 Go up to the mountain, and cut timber; build the house, and I will take pleasure in it, and be glorified, saith the Lord.
“Tlang la luei uh lamtah thing lo uh laeh. Im he sa uh laeh. A khui ah ngaingaih saeh lamtah ka thangpom khaw ka thangpom mai eh,” tila BOEIPA loh a thui.
9 Ye looked for much, and there came little; and it was brought into the house, and I blew it away. Therefore thus saith the Lord Almighty, Because my house is desolate, and ye run everyone into his own house;
A yet la a mael thil dae a yol la poeh coeng te. Im la na khuen uh vaengah te te phawn ka hmuh. Balae tih caempuei BOEIPA kah olphong a om? Ka im he a kaksap vaengah nangmih kah hlang mai tah, amah im neh cungpoeh uh.
10 therefore shall the sky withhold dew, and the earth shall keep back her produce.
Te dongah nangmih ham tah vaan loh buemtui a hloh uh vetih, diklai loh a cangpai a hloh ni.
11 And I will bring a sword upon the land, and upon the mountains, and upon the corn, and upon the wine, and upon the oil, and all that the earth produces, and upon the men, and upon the cattle, and upon all the labours of their hands.
Diklai hman neh tlang soah khaw, cangpai so neh misur thai soah khaw, situi so neh diklai kah a thoeng boeih soah khaw, hlang so neh rhamsa soah khaw kut dongkah thaphu boeih soah khaw kholing ka khue thil ni,” a ti nah.
12 And Zorobabel the son of Salathiel, of the tribe of Juda, and Jesus the son of Josedec, the high priest, and all the remnant of the people, hearkened to the voice of the Lord their God, and the words of the prophet Aggaeus, according as the Lord their God had sent him to them, and the people feared before the Lord.
Te dongah Shealtiel capa Zerubbabel neh khosoih puei Jehozadak capa Joshua long khaw, pilnam kah a meet boeih long khaw a Pathen BOEIPA ol neh tonghma Haggai ol te a ngai. Anih te a Pathen BOEIPA loh a tueih coeng dongah pilnam te BOEIPA mikhmuh ah rhih uh.
13 And Aggaeus the Lord's messenger spoke among the messengers of the Lord to the people, [saying], I am with you, saith the Lord.
Te phoeiah BOEIPA kah puencawn Haggai loh BOEIPA kah olthui te pilnam taengah a thui pah. Te vaengah, “Kai tah nangmih taengah BOEIPA kah olphong ni,” a ti nah.
14 And the Lord stirred up the spirit of Zorobabel the son of Salathiel, of the tribe of Juda, and the spirit of Jesus the son of Josedec, the high priest, and the spirit of the remnant of all the people; and they went in, and wrought in the house of the Lord Almighty their God,
Te vaengah BOEIPA loh Judah rhalboei Shealtiel capa Zerubbabel kah mueihla te khaw, khosoih puei Jehozadak capa Joshua kah mueihla khaw, pilnam a meet boeih kah mueihla khaw a haeng pah. Te dongah kun uh tih a Pathen caempuei Yahweh im ah bitat te,
15 on the four and twentieth [day] of the sixth month, in the second year of Darius the king.
manghai Darius kah kum bae nah, hla rhuk hnin kul hnin li vaengah a saii uh.
