Haggai 1
1 In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, on the first day of the month, a word of YHWH has been by the hand of Haggai the prophet, to Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua son of Josedech, the high priest, saying,
Darius lengvaipoh kal kum ni lhinna, Lhajing nisim som ni le ko nin, Judah gamvaipo Shealtiel chapa Zerubabel le thempu chungnung Jehozadak chapa Jeshua henga Pakai in Haggai a konin thu ahinseiye.
2 “Thus spoke YHWH of Hosts, saying, This people—they have said, The time has not come, The time the house of YHWH [is] to be built.”
“Van Pakai chun hitin aseiye: Hiche miten, ‘Pakai hou in sahphatna ding avatna laiye atiuve.’”
3 And there is a word of YHWH by the hand of Haggai the prophet, saying,
Hijeh chun Pakai in Haggai themgao kamin ahin seiye:
4 “Is it time for you to dwell in your covered houses, And this house to lie waste?”
“I-atileh ka in asesa kijam’a nang ho in nomtah taha chen nahiuvem?
5 And now, thus said YHWH of Hosts: “Set your heart to your ways.
Hiche hi Van Pakai sei ahi: Ipiti nahiu ham phaten kiveuvin!
6 You have sown much, and brought in little, To eat, and not to satiety, To drink, and not to drunkenness, To clothe, and none has heat, And he who is hiring himself out, Is hiring himself for a bag pierced through.”
Muchi tamtah natudoh naovin, ahinlah lhomcha bou nakiat doh uve. An nane naovin, ahinlah navaset thei pouve. Twi nadon naovin, ahinlah na dangchah-u achimdeh poi. Von na kivon naovin, ahinlah lum nasah jou pouve. Na tohman jouseu jong akoina sumdip avangsa bangin amang pai ji'e!
7 Thus said YHWH of Hosts: “Set your heart to your ways.
Van Pakai chun hitin aseiye: Ipiti nahiu ham phaten kiveuvin!
8 Go up the mountain, and you have brought in wood, And build the house, and I am pleased with it. And I am honored,” said YHWH.
Tun thinglhang langa kal’uvin, thing gasuivin lang, ka in sa phauvin. Chutileh keima kalung lhaiding chule kaloupi thei ding ahi, tin Pakai in aseiye.
9 “Looking for much, and behold, little, And you brought [it] home, and I blew on it—why?” A declaration of YHWH of Hosts, “Because of My house that is desolate, And you are running—each to his house,
Tohga tampi nakineppi uve, ahinlah na vaicha cheh jouve. Chule na tohga’u in nahin pohlut tengu, ka sem mangpeh jitaove. Ipijha ham? Ajeh chu ka in ase san akijamin, ahinlah nang ho amitaki’in ama in nomtah tah kisahnan naki salel uve, tin Van Pakai sepai chun aseiye.
10 Therefore, over you the heavens have refrained from dew, And the land has refrained its increase.
Nang ho jeh'a van mun jousen gotwi daitwi atuhkih’a, chule leiset in jong ga asemdoh lou ahi.
11 And I proclaim drought on the land, And on the mountains, and on the grain, And on the new wine, and on the oil, And on what the ground brings forth, And on man, and on beast, And on all labor of the hands.”
Na louma dung jouse le na thinglhang jouseuva nichang kasat sahding – hiche nichang sat chun chang jouse agotsah ding, lengpi phung jouse jong, olive phung jouse jong, chule muchi chivo dang jouse jong agotlhah sah soh ding, hichun nang le na gancha jong kel natohsah diu, chule na tohga jouseu jong aboncha asuhset soh kei ding ahi.”
12 And Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, and Joshua son of Josedech, the high priest, and all the remnant of the people, listen to the voice of their God YHWH, and to the words of Haggai the prophet, as their God YHWH had sent him, and the people are afraid of the face of YHWH.
Chuin Shealtiel chapa Zerubbabel le thempu chungnung Jehozadak chapa Jeshua chuleh ahingdoh Pathen mite amoh chengin Pakai a Pathen’u thusei anit tauvin ahi. Pakai a Pathenun ahinsol Haggai themgao thusei ajah doh-u chun mipin Pakai aging cheh taove.
13 And Haggai, messenger of YHWH, in messages of YHWH, speaks to the people, saying, “I [am] with you, a declaration of YHWH.”
Hijeh chun Pakai thangkouva pang Haggai chun mipi jaha Pakai thupeh chu hitin: “Keiman ka umpi jing nauve, tin Pakai in aseiye,” atin ahi.
14 And YHWH stirs up the spirit of Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua son of Josedech, the high priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people, and they come in, and work in the house of YHWH of Hosts their God,
Hijeh chun Pakai in Judah gamvaipo Shealtiel chapa Zerubbabel lungthim ahin, thempu chungnung Jehozadak chapa Jeshua lunghtim ahin, chuleh Pathen mite ahingdoh amoh chengse lunghtim atildoh in ahi. Hiti chun van Pakai, a Pathenu hou in chu asapan taovin ahi.
15 in the twenty-fourth day of the sixth month, in the second year of Darius the king.
Darius lengvaipoh kal kumni lhinna, lhalam som ni le khat nia atohpat’u ahi.
