1 And he prophesied Haggai (prophet the *Q(K)*) and Zechariah [the] son of Iddo (prophets the *Q(k)*) to Jews the who [were] in Judah and in Jerusalem in [the] name of [the] God of Israel [who was] over them.
Ugbu a, ndị amụma, bụ Hegai, na Zekaraya nwa Ido buru amụma nye ndị Juu nọ na Juda nakwa Jerusalem. Ọ bụ nʼaha Chineke nke Izrel, onye na-achị ha ka ha buru amụma ahụ.

Mgbe ahụ, Zerubabel nwa Shealtiel, na Jeshua nwa Jozadak malitekwara iwu ụlọnsọ Chineke nʼJerusalem. Ndị amụma Chineke ahụ nọnyeere ha na-enyekwara ha aka.

Ha jụkwara ha ajụjụ sị: “Gịnị bụ aha ndị na-arụ ụlọ a?”
5 And [the] eye of God their it was on [the] elders of Jews the and not they made cease them until report the to Darius it will come and then they will send back letter the concerning this.
Ma anya Chineke ha dịkwasịrị nʼahụ ndị okenye ndị Juu, ha akwụsịghị ha ọrụ ruo mgbe akwụkwọ ozi ruru Daraiọs, na mgbe ọsịsa ya bịara site nʼakwụkwọ ozi.
6 copy of Letter the which he sent Tattenai - [the] governor of [the] region beyond river the and Shethar-Bozenai and associates his officials the who [were] in [the] region beyond river the to Darius king the.
Nke a bụ akwụkwọ ozi Tatenai, onye na-achị ala dị nʼọdịda anyanwụ Yufretis, na Sheta Bozenai, na ndịisi ọzọ degara eze Daraiọs:
7 Word the they sent to him and according to this it was written in midst its to Darius king the peace the all.
Ha zigara ya akwụkwọ ozi, nke e si otu a dee, Daraiọs bụ eze nwe akwụkwọ a, Anyị ekelee gị.
8 Known - let it be to king the that we went to Judea province the to [the] house of God the great and it [is] being built stone of rolling and timber [is] being set in walls the and work the this diligently [is] being done and [is] prospering in hand their.

9 Then we asked to elders the these as follows we said to them who? did he make for you a decree house the this to build and structure the this to finish.
Anyị jụrụ ndị okenye ajụjụ sị: Onye nyere unu ikike ibido iwuzi ụlọnsọ a na mgbidi Jerusalem?
10 And also names their we asked (to them *LA(bh)*) to make known to you that we will write [the] name of men the who [are] at heads their.
Anyị jụkwara ha aha ha, ka anyị si otu a mee ka ị mata aha ndị ndu ha.
11 And as follows word the they sent back to us to say we they [are] servants his of [the] God of heavens the and earth the and [we are] building house the which it was built from [the] former time of this years many and a king of Israel great he built it and he finished it.
Ma nke a bụ ihe ha zaghachiri anyị: “Anyị onwe anyị bụ ndị ohu Chineke nke eluigwe na ụwa. Anyị na-ewugharị ụlọnsọ nke otu eze ukwu ndị Izrel wuru nʼoge gara aga.
12 But from that they enraged fathers our [the] God of heavens the he gave them in [the] hand of Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon (Chaldean the *Q(k)*) and house the this he destroyed it and people the he took into exile to Babylon.
Ma nʼihi na nna nna anyị ha mere ka iwe wee Chineke nke eluigwe, o weere ha nyefee nʼaka Nebukadneza, onye Kaldịa, bụ eze Babilọn, onye bibiri ụlọnsọ a ma dọrọ ndị bi nʼala ahụ nʼagha laa Babilọn.
13 Nevertheless in year one of Cyrus king the of Babylon Cyrus king the he made a decree [the] house of God this to build.
“Ma otu ọ dị, nʼafọ mbụ nke ọchịchị Sairọs, eze Babilọn, eze Sairọs nyere iwu ka e wugharịa ụlọnsọ Chineke a.
14 And also vessels the of [the] house of God of gold and silver which Nebuchadnezzar he had brought out from temple the which [was] in Jerusalem and he carried them to temple the of Babylon he brought out them Cyrus king the from temple the of Babylon and they were given to Sheshbazzar name his whom governor he had made him.
O sikwa nʼụlọnsọ dị na Babilọn wepụta ngwongwo ọlaọcha na ọlaedo si nʼụlọnsọ Chineke nke Nebukadneza si nʼụlọnsọ Chineke dị na Jerusalem bupụ bulaa nʼụlọnsọ dị na Babilọn. Mgbe ahụ eze Sairọs nyefere ha nʼaka otu nwoke a na-akpọ Sheshbaza, onye ọ họpụtara dịka gọvanọ.
15 And he said to him - (these *Q(K)*) vessels the take! go! deposit! them in temple the which [is] in Jerusalem and [the] house of God let it be built on place its.
Ọ gwara ya sị, ‘buru ngwongwo ndị a bulaa ha nʼụlọnsọ dị na Jerusalem, wugharịakwa ụlọnsọ Chineke nʼọnọdụ ya mbụ.’
16 Then Sheshbazzar this he came he laid foundations the of [the] house of God which [is] in Jerusalem and from then and until now [it is] being built and not [it is] finished.
“Ya mere, ọ bụ Sheshbaza a bịara tọọ ntọala ụlọnsọ dị na Jerusalem. Sitekwa nʼoge ahụ ruo ugbu a, ha nọ na-arụ ya ma ha arụchabeghị ya.”
17 And now if to king the [it is] good let it be searched in [the] house of treasures the of king the there which [are] in Babylon whether there [is] that from Cyrus king the it was made [is] a decree to build [the] house of God this in Jerusalem and [the] will of king the concerning this let him send to us.
