Haggai 1
1 In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, on the first of the month, came the word of Yahweh, by the hand of Haggai the prophet, unto Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, pasha of Judah, and unto Jehoshua son of Jehozadak the high priest, saying:
Kane ochopo chiengʼ mokwongo mar dwe mar auchiel, e higa mar ariyo mar loch ruoth Darius, Jehova Nyasaye nowuoyo gi dho janabi Hagai ne Zerubabel wuod Shealtiel, mane jatend piny Juda, gi Joshua wuod Jehozadak, jadolo maduongʼ kowacho niya,
2 Thus, speaketh Yahweh of hosts, saying, —This people, have said, Not yet hath come the time for the house of Yahweh to be built.
Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho niya, “Ogendinigi wacho ni, ‘Kinde pok ochopo monego gerne Nyasaye hekalu mare.’”
3 Therefore hath come the word of Yahweh by the hand of Haggai the prophet, saying:
Eka wach Jehova Nyasaye nobiro gi dwond janabi Hagai kawacho niya:
4 Is it a time that, ye yourselves, should be dwelling in your own paneled houses? and, this house, be in ruins?
“Bende en gima ber adier ka un uwegi udakie uteu mugero mabeyo, to hekalu marani to omukore machal kama?”
5 Now, therefore, Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, —Apply your heart unto your own experience—
Ma emomiyo Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho niya, “Nonuru timbeu.
6 Ye have sown much, but have brought in little, have eaten, and not been filled, have drunk, and not been satisfied with drink, have clothed you, and none hath been warm, —and, he that hath hired himself out, hath put his wages into a bag with holes.
Usechwoyo mangʼeny, to ukayo mana matin; uchiemo, to gima uchamo ok nyal yiengʼou, umetho, to ok romu; urwakoru gi lewni, to onge kata ngʼato achiel kuomu mayudo liet; to nyaka un joma nwangʼo chudo, bangʼ ka unwangʼo chudo to uketo mana ei ofuku motuch.”
7 Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, —Apply your heart to your own experience:
Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho niya, “Nonuru timbeu.
8 Ascend the mountain—and bring in wood and build the house, —that I may be pleased therewith and get myself glory, saith Yahweh.
Idh-uru udhi e gode mondo ukel yien ugernago ot manyalo morgo, kama duongʼna maler nyalo nenoree,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
9 When ye looked for much, then lo! it came to little, when ye brought it home, then I did blow into it, — Because of what? Demandeth Yahweh of hosts, Because of my house, the which is in ruins, while ye keep running every man to his own house.
“Usegombo yudo mangʼeny, to osetamore ma uyudo mana matin; to kata mana mano mago ma usechoko mukeloe dala, abiro kudho oko. Mani notimore nikech angʼo?” Jehova Nyasaye Maratego penjo. “Nikech hekaluna ma uweyo odongʼ gunda, ka un uwegi to uringo kudhi e uteu molos mabeyo.
10 Wherefore—on your account, have the heavens, held back, dew, — and, the earth, held back her fruit;
Mano emomiyo koro Polo malo ok nyal miyou koth kata matin, kendo piny osiko mana kotwo ma ok nyal nyago gimoro.
11 And I have called for drought, upon the land and upon the mountains, and upon the corn and upon the new wine and upon the oil, and upon that which the ground, bringeth forth, —and upon man, and upon beast, and upon all the labour of the hands.
Mano emomiyo osehononu oro mondo otwo piny kaachiel gi gode, mi cham gi mzabibu kod mo zeituni, gi gik moko duto ma piny nyago ner, mondo kech omak dhano gi jamni, kendo oketh tije duto ma dhano oloso.”
12 Then hearkened Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, and Jehoshua son of Jehozadak the high priest, and all the remnant of the people, unto the voice of Yahweh their God, and unto the words of Haggai the prophet, as Yahweh their God, had sent him, —and the people, stood in awe, before Yahweh.
Eka Zerubabel ma wuod Shealtiel kod Joshua wuod Jehozadak, ma jadolo maduongʼ, kaachiel gi ji mamoko mane oa e twech, kane giwinjo weche Nyasaye gi weche mag janabi Hagai, kaka Jehova Nyasaye ne oore, luoro maduongʼ nomakogi e nyim Ruoth.
13 Then spake Haggai the messenger of Yahweh, in the message of Yahweh, to the people saying, —I, am with you, Declareth Yahweh.
Eka Hagai jaote mar Jehova Nyasaye, nowuoyo kod ji konyisogi weche mane Jehova Nyasaye omiye, kowacho niya, “An kodu,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
14 Thus did Yahweh, stir up—the spirit of Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, pasha of Judah, and the spirit of Jehoshua son of Jehozadak the high priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people, —and they came in and did service in the house of Yahweh of hosts their God:
Eka Jehova Nyasaye nojiwo chuny Zerubabel wuod Shealtiel mane jatend piny Juda, chuny Joshua, kod chuny joma moko mane oa e twech. Negibiro kendo gichako tich e od Jehova Nyasaye Maratego ma Nyasachgi,
15 on the twenty-fourth day of the month, in the sixth month, —in the second year of Darius the king.
tarik piero ariyo gangʼwen e dwe mar auchiel e higa mar ariyo mar loch Ruoth Darius.
