Haggai 2
1 In the seventh [month], on the one and twentieth day of the month, came the word of the Lord by means of Haggai the prophet, saying,
Druge godine kralja Darija, sedmoga mjeseca, dvadeset i prvoga dana u mjesecu, dođe riječ Jahvina preko proroka Hagaja:
2 Do say to Zerubbabel the son of Shealthiel, the governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and to the residue of the people, saying,
“Reci ovako Zerubabelu, sinu Šealtielovu, namjesniku judejskom, i Jošui, sinu Josadakovu, velikom svećeniku, i ostalom narodu:
3 Who is there yet left among you that hath seen this house in its first glory? and how do ye see it now? is it not in comparison with it as nothing in your eyes?
'Ima li još koga među vama koji vidje ovaj Dom u njegovoj staroj slavi? A kakva ga sada vi vidite? Prema onome, nije li to k'o ništa u vašim očima?
4 Yet now be strong, O Zerubbabel, saith the Lord, and be strong O Joshua, the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and be strong, all ye people of the land, saith the Lord, and do; [for I am with you, saith the Lord of hosts, ]
Budi, dakle, junak, Zerubabele - riječ je Jahvina - budi junak, Jošua, sine Josadakov, veliki svećeniče! Budi junak, narode sve zemlje - riječ je Jahvina. Na posao! Jer, ja sam s vama! - riječ je Jahve nad Vojskama!
5 [In accordance with] the word that I covenanted with you when ye came out of Egypt, so [will] my spirit remain among you: fear nought.
Po obećanju što ga vama dadoh kad izađoste iz Egipta, duh moj posred vas ostaje. Ne bojte se!'
6 For thus hath said the Lord of hosts, Yet one thing more [will I do], it is but little, when I will cause to quake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land;
Jer ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama: 'Zamalo, i ja ću potresti nebesa i zemlju, i more i kopno.
7 And I will cause to quake all the nations, and the precious things of all the nations shall come [hither]: and I will fill this house with glory, saith the Lord of hosts.
Potrest ću sve narode da dođe blago svih naroda, i slavom ću napunit ovaj Dom' - kaže Jahve nad Vojskama.
8 Mine is the silver, and mine is the gold, saith the Lord of hosts.
'Moje je zlato, moje je srebro' - riječ je Jahve nad Vojskama.
9 Greater shall be the glory of this latter house than that of the former, saith the Lord of hosts: and in this place will I give peace, saith the Lord of hosts.
'Slava ovoga drugog Doma bit će veća nego prvoga' - riječ je Jahve nad Vojskama. 'I na ovom ću mjestu dati mir' - riječ je Jahve nad Vojskama.”
10 On the four and twentieth day of the ninth month, in the second year of Darius, came the word of the Lord by means of Haggai the prophet, saying,
Dvadeset i četvrtoga dana devetoga mjeseca, druge godine kralja Darija, dođe riječ Jahvina preko proroka Hagaja:
11 Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, Do ask the priests concerning the law, saying,
Ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama. “Pitaj svećenike što kaže Zakon i reci:
12 Lo! if one should carry holy flesh in the corner of his garment, and touch with his corner bread, or pottage, or wine, or oil, or any food, shall it become holy? And the priests answered and said, No.
'Kad bi tko u skutu svoje haljine nosio posvećeno meso, ili bi se skutom dotakao kruha, jela, vina, ulja ili kakve god hrane, bi li to postalo sveto?'” Svećenici odgovoriše: “Ne!”
13 Then said Haggai, If one that is unclean by a dead body shall touch any of these, will it become unclean? And the priests answered and said, It will become unclean.
Hagaj dalje upita: “Kad bi netko koji se onečistio dodirnuvši mrtvaca dotakao nešto od onoga, bi li to postalo nečisto?” Svećenici odgovoriše: “Bilo bi nečisto.”
14 Then answered Haggai, and said, So is this people, and so is this nation before me, saith the Lord; and so are all works of their hands; and what they offer there is unclean.
Onda Hagaj ovako reče: “Takav je i ovaj puk, takav je ovaj narod preda mnom - riječ je Jahvina - takvo je svako djelo ruku njihovih, i sve što ovdje prinose: sve je nečisto!”
15 And now direct, I pray you, your heart from this day and upward, before the time that a stone was laid upon a stone in the temple of the Lord:
“A sada, promislite u srcu, od današnjega dana unapredak: Prije negoli se poče stavljati kamen na kamen u Jahvinu Svetištu,
16 Since those days were, when one came to a heap of sheaves of twenty [in number], and there were but ten; when one came to the winepress for to draw off fifty measures out of the vat, and there were but twenty.
kakvi ono bijaste? Dolažaste hrpi od dvadeset mjerica, a bješe ih samo deset! Dolažaste kaci da zahvatite pedeset mjerica, a bješe ih samo dvadeset!
17 I smote you with blasting and with mildew and with hail in all the labors of your hands: yet ye [turned] not [back] to me, saith the Lord.
Udarao sam snijeću, medljikom i grÓadom svako djelo vaših ruku, ali nikoga nema k meni” - riječ je Jahvina.
18 Direct, I pray you, your heart from this day and upward, from the four and twentieth day of the ninth month, even from the day that the foundation of the Lord's temple was laid, direct your heart [to this].
“Stoga dobro pripazite od današnjeg dana unapredak - od dvadeset i četvrtoga dana devetoga mjeseca, kad se stao graditi Hram Jahvin, pripazite dobro
19 Is the seed yet in the barn? yes, as yet the vine, and the fig-tree, and the pomegranate, and the olive-tree, have not brought forth; [but] from this day will I bless you.
ima li još žita u žitnici? Ni vinova loza ni smokva, ni mogranj ni maslina nisu rađali! Al' od ovog dana ja ću blagosloviti.”
20 And the word of the Lord came the second time unto Haggai on the four and twentieth day of the month, saying,
Dvadeset i četvrtoga dana istoga mjeseca dođe riječ Jahvina Hagaju drugi put:
21 Speak to Zerubbabel the governor of Judah, saying, I will cause to quake the heavens and the earth;
“Reci ovako Zerubabelu, namjesniku judejskom: 'Ja ću potresti nebesa i zemlju!
22 And I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms, and I will destroy the strength of the kingdoms of the nations; and I will overthrow chariots, and those that ride in them; and the horses and their riders shall come down, every one by the sword of his brother.
Oborit ću prijestolja kraljevstvima i uništit ću moć kraljevima naroda. Prevrnut ću bojna kola i one na njima, konji i konjanici njihovi bit će oboreni, past će od mača brata svojega.'”
23 On that day, saith the Lord of hosts, will I take thee, O Zerubbabel, the son of Shealthiel, my servant, saith the Lord, and I will place thee as a signet; for of thee have I made choice, saith the Lord of hosts.
“Toga dana” - riječ je Jahve nad Vojskama - “uzet ću te, Zerubabele, sine Šealtielov, slugo moja” - riječ je Jahvina - “i stavit ću te kao pečatnjak, jer tebe izabrah” - riječ je Jahve nad Vojskama.
