< 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,
Druge godine kralja Darija, šestoga mjeseca, prvoga dana u mjesecu, dođe riječ Jahvina preko proroka Hagaja Zerubabelu, sinu Šealtielovu, namjesniku judejskom, i Jošui, sinu Josadakovu, velikom svećeniku:
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.”
“Ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama. Narod ovaj govori: 'Nije još došlo vrijeme da se opet sazda Dom Jahvin!'
3 And there is a word of YHWH by the hand of Haggai the prophet, saying,
Zato je došla riječ Jahvina preko proroka Hagaja:
4 “Is it time for you to dwell in your covered houses, And this house to lie waste?”
A vama je vrijeme da stanujete u pokrivenim kućama, dok je ovaj Dom razvaljen.
5 And now, thus said YHWH of Hosts: “Set your heart to your ways.
I zato, ovako sada govori Jahve nad Vojskama: Razmotrite svoje putove!
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.”
Sijete mnogo, malo dovozite; jedete, a niste siti; pijete, a napojit' se ne možete; odijevate se, a nije vam toplo. Poslenik zarađuje plaću, a stavlja je u prodrt tobolac!”
7 Thus said YHWH of Hosts: “Set your heart to your ways.
Ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama: “Razmotrite svoje putove!
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.
Idite na goru, dovezite drva i podignite opet Dom; bit će mi to milo i proslavit ću se” - govori Jahve.
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,
“Nadaste se obilju, a gle, malo je; što dovezete kući, ja otpuhnem. A zašto?” - riječ je Jahve nad Vojskama. “Zato što je Dom moj razvaljen, dok se svaki od vas brine za dom svoj.
10 Therefore, over you the heavens have refrained from dew, And the land has refrained its increase.
Stog' je nebo uskratilo rosu, a zemlja uskratila usjeve.
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.”
Ja dozvah sušu na zemlju i gore, na žito i vino, na ulje i na sve što zemlja rađa, na ljude i stoku i na svaki trudno stečen plod.”
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.
A Zerubabel, sin Šealtielov, i Jošua, sin Josadakov, veliki svećenik, i sav ostali narod poslušaše glas Jahve, Boga svojega, i riječi proroka Hagaja u onome radi čega ga Jahve njima posla: i narod se poboja Jahve.
13 And Haggai, messenger of YHWH, in messages of YHWH, speaks to the people, saying, “I [am] with you, a declaration of YHWH.”
Tada Hagaj, glasnik Jahvin, po Jahvinu nalogu ovako reče narodu: “Ja sam s vama” - riječ je Jahvina. -
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,
Jahve probudi duh Zerubabelu, sinu Šealtielovu, namjesniku judejskom, i duh Jošui, sinu Josadakovu, velikom svećeniku, i duh svemu ostalom narodu te oni dođoše i prionuše na posao u Domu Jahve nad Vojskama, Boga svojega.
15 in the twenty-fourth day of the sixth month, in the second year of Darius the king.
Bijaše to dvadeset i četvrtoga dana šestog mjeseca.
