Haggai 2
1 And in the seventh month, on the twenty-first of the month, the word of the Lord came, by the hand of Haggai the prophet, saying:
Hla rhih, hnin kul hnin khat dongkah BOEIPA ol he tonghma Haggai kut lamloh pai tih,
2 Speak to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, the governor of Judah, and to Jesus the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and to the remainder of the people, saying:
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 left among you, who saw this house in its first glory? And how do you see it now? Is it not, in comparison to that, as nothing in your eyes?
“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 And now be strengthened, Zerubbabel, says the Lord. And be strengthened, Jesus the son of Jehozadak, the high priest. And be strengthened, all people of the land, says the Lord of hosts. For I am with you, says the Lord of hosts.
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 And act according to the word that I planted with you when you departed from the land of Egypt. And my Spirit will be in your midst. Do not be afraid.
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 thus says the Lord of hosts: There is yet one brief time, and I will move heaven and 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 move all nations. And the Desired of all nations will arrive. And I will fill this house with glory, says the Lord of hosts.
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 Mine is the silver, and mine is the gold, says the Lord of hosts.
Cak he kamah kah tih sui khaw kamah kah ni. He tah caempuei BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
9 Great shall be the glory of this house, the last more than the first, says the Lord of hosts. And in this place, I will bestow peace, says the Lord of hosts.
“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 of the ninth month, in the second year of king Darius, the word of the Lord came to 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 Thus says the Lord of hosts: the priests question the law, saying:
Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. “Khosoih te olkhueng dawt laeh,” a ti nah.
12 If a man will have carried sanctified flesh in the pocket of his garment, and the top of it touches his bread, or appetizer, or wine, or oil, or any food, shall it be sanctified? But the priests responded by saying, “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 And Haggai said, “If the polluted in soul will have touched any of all these things, shall it be contaminated?” And the priests responded and said, “It shall be contaminated.”
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 And Haggai answered and he said: Such is this people, and such is this nation before my face, says the Lord, and such is all the work of their hands. And so all that they have offered there has been contaminated.
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, consider in your hearts, from this day and beyond, before stone may be placed upon stone 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 when you approached a pile of twenty measures, and they became ten, and you entered to the press, to press out fifty bottles, and they became 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 how I struck you with a burning wind, and a mildew, and a hailstorm, all the works of your hand, yet there was no one among you who returned 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 Set your hearts from this day and into the future, from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, from the day that the foundations of the temple of the Lord have been uttered, and place it upon your heart.
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 Has the seed been germinated yet? And has the vine, and the fig tree, and the pomegranate, and the olive tree still not flourished? From this day on, I will bless 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 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 Speak to Zerubbabel the governor of Judah, saying: I will move both heaven and earth.
“Judah rhalboei Zerubbabel taengah thui pah lamtah, 'Vaan neh diklai he ka hinghuen coeng.
22 And I will overturn the throne of kingdoms, and I will crush the strength of the kingdom of the Gentiles. And I will overturn the four-horse chariot, and its rider; and the horses and their riders shall be brought down, a man 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 hosts, I will take you, Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, my servant, says the Lord, and will set you like a seal, for I have chosen you, says the Lord of hosts.
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.
