Haggai 1
1 In the second yeere of King Darius, in the sixt moneth, the first day of the moneth, came ye worde of the Lord (by the ministery of the Prophet Haggai) vnto Zerubbabel the sonne of Shealtiel, a prince of Iudah, and to Iehoshua the sonne of Iehozadak the hie Priest, saying,
Nan dezyèm lanne rèy wa Dariyis nan peyi Pès la, premye jou nan sizyèm mwa a, Seyè a te bay pwofèt Aje yon mesaj pou Zowobabèl, pitit gason Chealtyèl la, ki te gouvènè peyi Jida ansanm ak pou Jozye, pitit gason Jozadak la, ki te granprèt lè sa a. Men mesaj la:
2 Thus speaketh the Lord of hostes, saying, This people say, The time is not yet come, that the Lords House should be builded.
-Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a pale. Men sa li di: Moun yo ap plede di se poko lè pou yo bati kay Seyè a!
3 Then came the worde of the Lord by the ministerie of the Prophet Haggai, saying,
Se poutèt sa, men mesaj Seyè a te bay pwofèt Aje pou pèp la.
4 Is it time for your selues to dwell in your sieled houses, and this House lie waste?
Ki jan nou fè pa wont rete nan gwo kay nou byen alèz, epi nou kite kay Bondye a tou kraze?
5 Now therefore thus saith ye Lord of hostes, Consider your owne wayes in your hearts.
Bon. Koulye a, men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a di: Kalkile byen sou sa k'ap rive nou la a.
6 Ye haue sowen much, and bring in litle: ye eate, but ye haue not ynough: ye drinke, but ye are not filled: ye clothe you, but ye be not warme: and he that earneth wages, putteth the wages into a broken bagge.
Nou simen anpil grenn nan jaden nou, men nou rekòlte ti kras. Nou manje, men vant nou pa plen. Nou bwè diven, men kè nou pa kontan. Nou gen rad pou mete sou nou, men fredi ap kale nou toujou. Travayè yo touche lajan, men sa pa ka bouche yon twou dan.
7 Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, Consider your owne wayes in your hearts.
Wi! Men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a di nou: Kalkile byen sou sa k'ap rive nou la a!
8 Goe vp to the mountaine, and bring wood, and build this House, and I wil be fauourable in it, and I will be glorified, sayth the Lord.
Lèfini, ale nan mòn yo. Koupe bwa pote vini. Rebati kay mwen an. Sa va fè m' plezi, se va yon lwanj pou mwen. Se Seyè a ki di sa.
9 Ye looked for much, and lo, it came to litle: and when ye brought it home, I did blowe vpon it. And why, sayth the Lord of hostes? Because of mine House that is waste, and ye runne euery man vnto his owne house.
Nou te kwè nou t'ap fè bèl rekòt. Men, rekòt la mèg. Nou ranmase l' mete nan depo, mwen fè l' gate. Poukisa mwen fè sa? Se Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa k'ap pale wi. Se paske nou kite tanp mwen an ap kraze epi tout moun ap prese bati kay pa yo.
10 Therefore the heauen ouer you stayed it selfe from dewe, and the earth stayed her fruite.
Se poutèt sa, lapli pa tonbe, anyen pa pouse.
11 And I called for a drought vpon the land, and vpon the mountaines, and vpon the corne, and vpon the wine, and vpon the oyle, vpon all that the ground bringeth foorth: both vpon men and vpon cattell, and vpon all the labour of the hands.
Mwen lage yon sèl chechrès nan peyi a, sou mòn yo, sou jaden ble yo, sou jaden rezen yo ak jaden oliv yo, sou tou sa k'ap pouse sou latè, sou moun, sou bèt, sou tout sa nou plante.
12 When Zerubbabel the sonne of Shealtiel, and Iehoshua the sonne of Iehozadak the hie Priest with all the remnant of the people, heard the voyce of the Lord their God, and the wordes of the Prophet Haggai (as the Lord their God had sent him) then the people did feare before the Lord.
Lè sa a, Zowobabèl, pitit Chealtyèl la, Jozye, granprèt la, pitit Jozadak la, ansanm ak tout moun ki te tounen soti nan peyi kote yo te depòte yo a, yo koute sa Seyè a, Bondye yo a, te di yo, dapre mesaj Seyè a te bay pwofèt Aje pou yo a. Yo te vin gen krentif pou Seyè a.
13 Then spake Haggai the Lords messenger in the Lords message vnto the people, saying, I am with you, sayth the Lord.
Epi, Aje, mesaje Seyè a, bay pèp la yon lòt mesaj Seyè a te ba li. Li di yo: -Seyè a fè nou konnen li la avèk nou.
14 And the Lord stirred vp the spirite of Zerubbabel, the sonne of Shealtiel a prince of Iudah, and the spirit of Iehoshua the sonne of Iehozadak the hie Priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people, and they came, and did the worke in the House of the Lord of hostes their God.
Seyè a mete nan tèt tout moun lanvi pou yo travay nan tanp Bondye yo a, depi Zowobabèl, pitit gason Chealtyèl la, gouvènè peyi Jida a, Jozye, granprèt la, pitit gason Jozadak la, jouk dènye moun ki te tounen soti nan peyi kote yo te depòte yo a. Yo konmanse travay nan tanp Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, Bondye yo a,
15 In the foure and twentieth day of the sixt moneth, in the second yeere of King Darius,
jou ki te make vennkatriyèm jou nan sizyèm mwa nan dezyèm lanne rèy wa Dariyis la.
