Haggai 1
1 In year two of Darius the king in the month sixth on day one of the month it came [the] word of Yahweh by [the] hand of Haggai the prophet to Zerubbabel [the] son of Shealtiel [the] governor of Judah and to Joshua [the] son of Jehozadak the priest great saying.
Nan dezyèm lanne rèy wa Dariyis nan peyi Pès la, premye jou nan sizyèm mwa a, Seyè a te bay pwofèt Aje yon mesaj pou Zowobabèl, pitit gason Chealtyèl la, ki te gouvènè peyi Jida ansanm ak pou Jozye, pitit gason Jozadak la, ki te granprèt lè sa a. Men mesaj la:
2 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts saying the people this they have said not a time to come [the] time of [the] house of Yahweh to be rebuilt.
-Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a pale. Men sa li di: Moun yo ap plede di se poko lè pou yo bati kay Seyè a!
3 And it came [the] word of Yahweh by [the] hand of Haggai the prophet saying.
Se poutèt sa, men mesaj Seyè a te bay pwofèt Aje pou pèp la.
4 ¿ [does] a time [belong] to You you to dwell in houses your covered and the house this [is] desolate.
Ki jan nou fè pa wont rete nan gwo kay nou byen alèz, epi nou kite kay Bondye a tou kraze?
5 And therefore thus he says Yahweh of hosts set heart your on ways your.
Bon. Koulye a, men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a di: Kalkile byen sou sa k'ap rive nou la a.
6 You have sown much and you have brought little you have eaten and not to satiety you have drunk and not to become drunk you have dressed and not to be warm to him and the [one who] earns wages [is] earning wages to a bag pierced.
Nou simen anpil grenn nan jaden nou, men nou rekòlte ti kras. Nou manje, men vant nou pa plen. Nou bwè diven, men kè nou pa kontan. Nou gen rad pou mete sou nou, men fredi ap kale nou toujou. Travayè yo touche lajan, men sa pa ka bouche yon twou dan.
7 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts set heart your on ways your.
Wi! Men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a di nou: Kalkile byen sou sa k'ap rive nou la a!
8 Go up the hill country and you will bring wood and rebuild the house so I may take pleasure in it (so let me be honored *Q(K)*) he says Yahweh.
Lèfini, ale nan mòn yo. Koupe bwa pote vini. Rebati kay mwen an. Sa va fè m' plezi, se va yon lwanj pou mwen. Se Seyè a ki di sa.
9 You turned to look to much and there! little and you brought [it] the house and I blew on it because of what? [the] utterance of Yahweh of hosts because of house my which it [is] desolate and you [are] running each to own house his.
Nou te kwè nou t'ap fè bèl rekòt. Men, rekòt la mèg. Nou ranmase l' mete nan depo, mwen fè l' gate. Poukisa mwen fè sa? Se Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa k'ap pale wi. Se paske nou kite tanp mwen an ap kraze epi tout moun ap prese bati kay pa yo.
10 There-fore on you they have withheld ([the] heavens *L(abh)*) from dew and the land it has withheld produce its.
Se poutèt sa, lapli pa tonbe, anyen pa pouse.
11 And I have summoned a drought on the land and on the mountains and on the grain and on the new wine and on the fresh oil and on [that] which it will bring forth the ground and on humankind and on the livestock and on all [the] toil of hands.
Mwen lage yon sèl chechrès nan peyi a, sou mòn yo, sou jaden ble yo, sou jaden rezen yo ak jaden oliv yo, sou tou sa k'ap pouse sou latè, sou moun, sou bèt, sou tout sa nou plante.
12 And he listened Zerubbabel - [the] son of Shealtiel and Joshua [the] son of Jehozadak the priest great and all - [the] remnant of the people to [the] voice of Yahweh God their and to [the] words of Haggai the prophet just as he had sent him Yahweh God their and they were afraid the people of Yahweh.
Lè sa a, Zowobabèl, pitit Chealtyèl la, Jozye, granprèt la, pitit Jozadak la, ansanm ak tout moun ki te tounen soti nan peyi kote yo te depòte yo a, yo koute sa Seyè a, Bondye yo a, te di yo, dapre mesaj Seyè a te bay pwofèt Aje pou yo a. Yo te vin gen krentif pou Seyè a.
13 And he said Haggai [the] messenger of Yahweh by [the] message of Yahweh to the people saying I [am] with you [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Epi, Aje, mesaje Seyè a, bay pèp la yon lòt mesaj Seyè a te ba li. Li di yo: -Seyè a fè nou konnen li la avèk nou.
14 And he stirred up Yahweh [the] spirit of Zerubbabel [the] son of Shealtiel [the] governor of Judah and [the] spirit of Joshua [the] son of Jehozadak the priest great and [the] spirit of all [the] remnant of the people and they came and they did work in [the] house of Yahweh of hosts God their.
Seyè a mete nan tèt tout moun lanvi pou yo travay nan tanp Bondye yo a, depi Zowobabèl, pitit gason Chealtyèl la, gouvènè peyi Jida a, Jozye, granprèt la, pitit gason Jozadak la, jouk dènye moun ki te tounen soti nan peyi kote yo te depòte yo a. Yo konmanse travay nan tanp Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, Bondye yo a,
15 On day twenty and four of the month in the sixth [month] in year two of Darius the king.
jou ki te make vennkatriyèm jou nan sizyèm mwa nan dezyèm lanne rèy wa Dariyis la.
