Haggai 2
1 In the seventh month, in the twenty-first day of the month, the word of YHWH came by Haggai the prophet, saying,
Awo ku lunaku olw’amakumi abiri mu olumu mu mwezi ogw’omusanvu, ekigambo kya Mukama ne kijjira nnabbi Kaggayi nti,
2 "Speak now to Zerubbabel, the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua, the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and to the remnant of the people, saying,
“Yogera ne Zerubbaberi mutabani wa Seyalutyeri, ow’essaza lya Yuda ne Yoswa mutabani wa Yekozadaaki kabona asinga obukulu, n’abantu abaasigalawo, obabuuze nti,
3 'Who is left among you who saw this house in its former glory? How do you see it now? Isn't it in your eyes as nothing?
‘Ani mu mmwe akyasigaddewo eyalaba ku kitiibwa ky’ennyumba eno? Ebafaananira etya kaakano? Tebafaananira ng’eteriimu kaabuntu?
4 Yet now be strong, Zerubbabel,' says YHWH. 'Be strong, Joshua, son of Jehozadak, the high priest. Be strong, all you people of the land,' says YHWH, 'and work, for I am with you,' says YHWH of hosts.
Kale nno guma omwoyo, ggwe Zerubbaberi, bw’ayogera Mukama; guma omwoyo, ggwe Yoswa mutabani wa Yekozadaaki kabona asinga obukulu; mugume omwoyo mmwe mwenna abantu ab’omu nsi,’ bw’ayogera Mukama, ‘Mukole, kubanga ndi wamu nammwe,’ bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye.
5 This is the word that I covenanted with you when you came out of Egypt, and my Spirit lived among you. 'Do not be afraid.'
‘Kino kye nalagaana nammwe bwe mwali muva mu Misiri, ng’Omwoyo wange anaabeeranga nammwe. Temutya.’
6 For this is what YHWH of hosts says: 'Yet once more, it is a little while, and I will shake the heavens and the earth and the sea and the dry land;
“Bw’atyo bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye nti, ‘Mu bbanga eritali ly’ewala ndikankanya eggulu n’ensi, n’ennyanja n’olukalu.
7 and I will shake all nations, and they will come with the treasures of all nations, and I will fill this house with glory, says YHWH of hosts.
Ndikankanya amawanga gonna, n’amawanga gonna ge njagala galijja, ne nzijuza ennyumba eno ekitiibwa,’ bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye.
8 The silver is mine, and the gold is mine,' says YHWH of hosts.
‘Effeeza yange, ne zaabu yange,’ bw’ayogera Mukama ow’eggye.
9 'The latter glory of this house will be greater than the former,' says YHWH of hosts; 'and in this place will I give peace,' says YHWH of hosts."
‘Ekitiibwa eky’ennyumba eriwo kaakano, kirisinga ekitiibwa ky’eri eyasooka era mu kifo kino ndizzaawo emirembe,’ bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye.”
10 In the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, in the second year of Daryavesh, the word of YHWH came by Haggai the prophet, saying,
Awo ku lunaku olw’amakumi abiri mu ennya olw’omwezi ogw’omwenda mu mwaka ogwokubiri ogw’okufuga kwa Daliyo, ekigambo kya Mukama ne kijjira nnabbi Kaggayi nti,
11 "Thus says YHWH of hosts: Ask now the priests concerning the law, saying,
“Bw’atyo bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye nti, ‘Buuza bakabona etteeka kye ligamba.
12 'If someone carries holy meat in the fold of his garment, and with his fold touches bread, stew, wine, oil, or any food, will it become holy?'" The priests answered, "No."
Omuntu bw’asitulira ennyama eyatukuzibwa mu kirenge eky’ekyambalo kye, ekirenge ne kikoma ku mugaati oba ku supu, oba ku wayini, oba ku mafuta oba ku mmere endala yonna, bitukuzibwa?’” Bakabona ne baddamu nti, “Nedda.”
13 Then Haggai said, "If one who is unclean by reason of a dead body touch any of these, will it be unclean?" The priests answered, "It will be unclean."
Awo Kaggayi n’abuuza nti, “Omuntu atali mulongoofu olw’omulambo, bw’akoma ku bintu ebyo, bifuuka ebitali birongoofu?” Bakabona ne baddamu nti, “Bifuuka ebitali birongoofu.”
14 Then Haggai answered, "'So is this people, and so is this nation before me,' says YHWH; 'and so is every work of their hands. That which they offer there is unclean.
Kaggayi n’addamu nti, “Kale nno bwe batyo bwe bali abantu bano n’eggwanga lino. Buli kye bakola ne buli kye bawaayo ng’ekiweebwayo, si kirongoofu,” bw’ayogera Mukama.
15 Now, please consider from this day and backward, before a stone was laid on a stone in the temple of YHWH.
“‘Kale nno, mweddeko okuva ku lunaku lwa leero, mujjukire ebiseera biri bwe byali, nga n’ejjinja erimu terinnateekebwa ku linnaalyo mu yeekaalu ya Mukama.
16 Through all that time, when one came to a heap of twenty measures, there were only ten. When one came to the wine vat to draw out fifty, there were only twenty.
Omuntu yenna bwe yatuukanga ku ntuumu eyandibadde ey’ebipimo amakumi abiri, yassangawo ebipimo kkumi. Omuntu yenna bwe yalaganga mu ssogolero okusenamu lita amakumi ataano, yasangangamu amakumi abiri.
17 I struck you with blight, mildew, and hail in all the work of your hands; yet you did not turn to me,' says YHWH.
Nakolimira emirimu gyonna egy’emikono gyammwe n’okugengewala n’obukuku, n’omuzira, naye ne mutakyuka kudda gye ndi,’ bw’ayogera Mukama.
18 'Consider, please, from this day and backward, from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, since the day that the foundation of YHWH's temple was laid, consider it.
Okuva olunaku lwa leero, olw’amakumi abiri mu ennya mu mwezi ogw’omwenda, mujjukire olunaku lwe baazimba omusingi gwa yeekaalu ya Mukama. Mwebuuze nti,
19 Is the seed yet in the barn? Yes, the vine, the fig tree, the pomegranate, and the olive tree haven't brought forth. From this day will I bless you.'"
Wakyaliwo ensigo eyasigala mu tterekero? Mulabe, emiti gino egimenyeddwa, ogw’omuzabbibu n’ogw’omutiini, n’ogw’omukomamawanga, n’ogw’omuzeeyituuni tegibalangako bibala. “‘Naye okuva ne leero ndibawa omukisa.’”
20 The word of YHWH came the second time to Haggai in the twenty-fourth day of the month, saying,
Awo ekigambo kya Mukama ne kijjira Kaggayi omulundi ogwokubiri ku lunaku olw’amakumi abiri mu ennya olw’omwezi ogwo nga kigamba nti,
21 "Speak to Zerubbabel, governor of Judah, saying, 'I will shake the heavens and the earth.
“Tegeeza Zerubbaberi gavana wa Yuda nti ndikankanya eggulu n’ensi.
22 I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms. I will destroy the strength of the kingdoms of the nations. I will overthrow the chariots, and those who ride in them. The horses and their riders will come down, everyone by the sword of his brother.
Ndisulika entebe ez’obwakabaka ne nzigyawo obuyinza bw’obwakabaka obunnaggwanga. Ndiwamba amagaali n’abavuzi baago, n’embalaasi na buli abazeebagala, balittibwa baganda baabwe.
23 In that day, says YHWH of hosts, will I take you, Zerubbabel, my servant, the son of Shealtiel,' says YHWH, 'and will make you as a signet, for I have chosen you,' says YHWH of hosts."
“‘Ku lunaku olwo, ggwe omuweereza wange Zerubbaberi mutabani wa Seyalutyeri, ndikufuula ng’akabonero, kubanga nkulonze,’ bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye.”
