Haggai 1
1 In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, in the first day of the month, came the word of Yhwh by Haggai the prophet unto Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Josedech, 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 speaketh Yhwh of Armies, saying, This people say, The time is not come, the time that Yhwh's house should be built.
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 Then came the word of Yhwh by Haggai the prophet, saying,
BOEIPA ol he tonghma Haggai kut lamloh cet bal tih,
4 Is it time for you, O ye, to dwell in your cieled houses, and this house lie waste?
Nangmih te namamih bueng na im khop ah khosak ham tue a? Tedae im he kaksap coeng he.
5 Now therefore thus saith Yhwh of Armies; Consider your ways.
Te dongah caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui coeng. Na longpuei te na thinko ah dueh laeh.
6 Ye have sown much, and bring in little; ye eat, but ye have not enough; ye drink, but ye are not filled with drink; ye clothe you, but there is none warm; and he that earneth wages earneth wages to put it into a bag with 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 Yhwh of Armies; 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 bring wood, and build the house; and I will take pleasure in it, and I will be glorified, saith Yhwh.
“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, lo, it came to little; and when ye brought it home, I did blow upon it. Why? saith Yhwh of Armies. Because of mine house that is waste, and ye run every man unto 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 the heaven over you is stayed from dew, and the earth is stayed from her fruit.
Te dongah nangmih ham tah vaan loh buemtui a hloh uh vetih, diklai loh a cangpai a hloh ni.
11 And I called for a drought upon the land, and upon the mountains, and upon the grain, and upon the new wine, and upon the oil, and upon that which the ground bringeth forth, and upon men, and upon cattle, and upon all the labour of the 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 Then Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, with all the remnant of the people, obeyed the voice of Yhwh their God, and the words of Haggai the prophet, as Yhwh their God had sent him, and the people did fear before Yhwh.
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 Then spake Haggai Yhwh's messenger in Yhwh's message unto the people, saying, I am with you, saith Yhwh.
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 Yhwh stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people; and they came and did work in the house of Yhwh of Armies, 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 In 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.
