< 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,
In yac se akluo ma Darius el tokosra fulat lun Persia, ke len se oemeet in malem se akonkosr, LEUM GOD El tuh kaskas nu sin mwet uh sel mwet palu Haggai. Kas inge ma nu sel Zerubbabel, governor lun Judah su wen natul Shealtiel, ac nu sel Joshua, Mwet Tol Fulat su wen natul Jehozadak.
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.”
LEUM GOD Kulana El fahk nu sel Haggai, “Mwet inge fahk mu tia pacl fal se pa inge in sifilpa musai Tempul.”
3 And there is a word of YHWH by the hand of Haggai the prophet, saying,
Na LEUM GOD El fahk kas inge nu sin mwet uh sel mwet palu Haggai:
4 “Is it time for you to dwell in your covered houses, And this house to lie waste?”
“Mwet luk, efu ku kowos muta in lohm ma musaiyukla arulana wo, a Tempul luk musallana oan?
5 And now, thus said YHWH of Hosts: “Set your heart to your ways.
Ku kowos tiana akilen ma sikyak nu suwos uh?
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.”
Kowos yukwiya fita na pukanten, a ma kowos kosrani uh arulana pu. Oasr mwe mongo nowos, a kowos tia ku in kihpi kac. Oasr wain kowos in nim, a kowos tia muti kac! Oasr nuknuk lowos, tuh tia ku in akfusrfusrye kowos. Ac mwet orekma uh, molol tia fal in sang enenu lal.
7 Thus said YHWH of Hosts: “Set your heart to your ways.
Kowos tiana akilen lah efu ku sikyak ouinge?
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.
Kowos utyak inge nu fineol uh, pakema kutu sak, ac sifil musaela Tempul, na nga fah insewowo, ac kowos fah alu nu sik we.
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,
“Kowos finsrak nu ke kosrani yohk, a ma kowos kosrani uh arulana srik. Ac ke kowos use ma kowos kosrani nu lohm suwos, nga okla wanginla. Efu ku nga oru ouinge? Mweyen Tempul luk oanna musalla, a kais sie suwos kafofona in orekma ke lohm sel sifacna.
10 Therefore, over you the heavens have refrained from dew, And the land has refrained its increase.
Pa inge sripen wangin af, ac wangin ma ku in kapak uh.
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.”
Nga use tuka nu fin acn uh — aok nu fin inging uh, ac inima in wheat, inima in grape, inima in sak olive, ac nu fin fohk nukewa su oswe fokin ima uh, oayapa nu fin mwet ac ma orakrak, ac nu fin ma nukewa kowos srike in yukwiya.”
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.
Na Zerubbabel ac Joshua ac mwet nukewa su foloko liki sruoh in Babylonia elos oru ma LEUM GOD lalos El fahk nu selos in oru. Elos tuh sangeng sin LEUM GOD, oru elos akos na ma Haggai, mwet palu su mwet kulansap lun LEUM GOD, el fahk.
13 And Haggai, messenger of YHWH, in messages of YHWH, speaks to the people, saying, “I [am] with you, a declaration of YHWH.”
Na Haggai el sang kas lun LEUM GOD inge nu sin mwet uh: “Nga ac fah wi kowos — pa inge wulela luk.”
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,
LEUM GOD El pirik mwet nukewa in orekma ke Tempul: Governor Zerubbabel lun Judah; Mwet Tol Fulat Joshua, ac mwet nukewa su foloko liki sruoh. Elos mutawauk in orekma ke Tempul lun LEUM GOD Kulana, su God lalos,
15 in the twenty-fourth day of the sixth month, in the second year of Darius the king.
