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:
Tarik piero ariyo gachiel e dwe mar abiriyo, wach Jehova Nyasaye nobiro kokalo kuom janabi Hagai kawacho niya:
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:
“Wuo kod Zerubabel wuod Shealtiel, ma en jatend Juda kaachiel gi Joshua wuod Jehozadak ma jadolo maduongʼ kod joma notony moa e twech. Penjgi niya,
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?
‘En ngʼa modongʼ e dieru mane oneno hekaluni kapod nigi duongʼne machon? Koro sani to uneno kochal nade? Donge ochalonu mana ka gima nono?’
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.
Jehova Nyasaye wacho ni, ‘Bed motegno, yaye Zerubabel. Bed motegno, yaye Joshua wuod Jehozadak, ma jadolo maduongʼ.’ Jehova Nyasaye medo wacho ni, ‘Beduru motegno, un ji duto modak e pinyni kendo tiuru matek nimar an kodu,’ Jehova Nyasaye Maratego owacho.
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.
‘Ma e gima ne asingorae kodu kane uwuok e piny Misri. Kendo Roho mara nikodu kinde duto. Kik ubed maluor.’
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.
“Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho, ‘Pod odongʼ mana kinde matin, abiro chako yiengo kendo polo kod piny, gi nam, kaachiel gi piny motwo;
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.
bende abiro yiengo ogendini duto, ma ginikel mwandugi duto, kendo abiro pongʼo hekaluni gi duongʼ.’ An Jehova Nyasaye Maratego ema awacho kamano.
8 Mine is the silver, and mine is the gold, says the Lord of hosts.
‘Fedha gi dhahabu gin maga,’ Jehova Nyasaye Maratego owacho.
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.
‘Duongʼ ma hekaluni biro bedogo achien, biro loyo mano mane en godo mokwongo,’ Jehova Nyasaye Maratego owacho. ‘Anakel kwe gi mwandu kae,’ Jehova Nyasaye Maratego owacho.”
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:
Kane ochopo tarik piero ariyo gangʼwen e higa mar ariyo mar loch Darius, wach Jehova Nyasaye nobiro gi dwond janabi Hagai kawacho niya:
11 Thus says the Lord of hosts: the priests question the law, saying:
“Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho ni, ‘Penj jodolo mondo odwoki gima chik wacho:
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.”
Ka ngʼato oketo ringʼo mowal ni Nyasaye e riak nangane, ma riak nanganeno ogere kuom makati, kata kuom kado, kata kuom divai, kata kuom mo, kata ei chiemo moro amora, to koro gima ogere kuomeno bende inyalo walo ni tich Nyasaye?’” Jodolo nodwoko niya, “Mano ok kamano.”
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.”
Eka Hagai nowacho niya, “Ka ngʼato omulo ringre ngʼat motho, makoro obedo mogak, eka bangʼe ngʼatni ogere kuom gimoro, koro gino bende bedo mogak?” Jodolo nodwoke niya, “Obedo mogak.”
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.
Eka Hagai nowacho niya, “‘Jehova Nyasaye wacho ni: Mano bende e kaka jo-Israel kod gik moko duto ma giwachona ei hekaluni ogak.’
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:
“‘Koro paruru anena gima biro timore chakre kawuono, kane pok uchako gero hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye to ne ochalo nade?
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,
Donge kata kane ngʼato obiro iru ka ukayo cham koparo ni onyalo yudo ogunde piero ariyo, to oyudo apar kende? Kendo kane obiro kar biyo divai, koparo ni onyalo yudo chupni piero abich, to ne oyudo mana piero ariyo kende.
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.
Chambu duto ne aketho gi dera kod pe, to kata bangʼ timo magi to pod ne udagi duogo ira,’ Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
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.
‘Paruru ahinya kochakore kawuono tarik piero ariyo gangʼwen mar dwe mar ochiko, ma en odiechiengʼ mane oketie mise mar hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye.
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.
Bende nitiere kodhi ma pod ni ei dero? Nyaka kawuononi mzabibu gi ngʼowu gi olemo mongʼinore kod zeituni pod ok nyag olemo. “‘Chakre kawuono abiro olo gwethna kuomu.’”
20 And the word of the Lord came a second time to Haggai, on the twenty-fourth of the month, saying:
Wach mar Jehova Nyasaye nobiro nyadiriyo ni janabi Hagai chiengʼ tarik piero ariyo gangʼwen mar dweno:
21 Speak to Zerubbabel the governor of Judah, saying: I will move both heaven and earth.
“Wachne Zerubabel ma jatend Juda ni, ‘Abiro yiengo polo gi piny.
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.
Abiro loko loch mag ruodhi; kendo abiro ketho teko mag pinje mamoko, abiro goyo geche mag lweny piny, kaachiel gi joma oidhogi. Ngʼato ka ngʼato biro kedo gi owadgi, kendo farese kod joma oidhogi nonegi.
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.
“‘E odiechiengno, anakawi in Zerubabel wuod Shealtiel ma jatichna kendo anaketi ibed ruodh jogo, nikech in ema sani koro aseyieri.’ Jehova Nyasaye Maratego ema owacho.”
