Malachi 3
1 The Commander of the armies of angels says [this]: “Listen! I [am about to] send my messenger who will prepare [the people to receive me] when I come. [You claim that] [IRO] you are wanting to see me, and I will suddenly come to my temple. The messenger [who will tell you about a new] agreement, the one whom you are eagerly [SAR] awaiting, is certainly going to come [to you].”
| «من نێردراوی خۆم دەنێرم، ئەوەی ڕێگاکەی پێشم بۆ ئامادە دەکات. لەناکاو ئەو پەروەردگارەی کە ئێوە داوای دەکەن، دێتە ناو پەرستگاکەی؛ بێگومان نێردراوەکەی پەیمانیش دێت کە دڵتان پێی خۆشە.» ئەمە فەرمایشتی یەزدانی سوپاسالارە. |
2 But will anyone [RHQ] be able to survive when he comes? Will anyone [RHQ] be able to [remain] standing in front of him? [Certainly not, ] because he will be like [SIM] a blazing fire that refines/purifies [metal/gold]. He will be like [SIM] a very strong soap [that bleaches clothes].
| «بەڵام کێ بەرگەی ڕۆژی هاتنی دەگرێت؟ کێ خۆی ڕادەگرێت لە دەرکەوتنی؟ چونکە ئەو وەک ئاگری پاڵاوگە و وەک سابوونی جل شوشتنە. |
3 [He will be like a worker who] sits [in front of his work] to cause silver to become pure by burning all the impurities. Like [a worker refines] silver and gold, he will cause the (descendants of Levi/priests) to become pure, [in order that they will again become acceptable to] offer sacrifices that will be acceptable to him.
| وەک پاڵێوەر و بێگەردکاری زیو دادەنیشێت، نەوەی لێڤی پاک دەکاتەوە و وەک زێڕ و زیو دەیپاڵێوێت. ئینجا یەزدان خەڵکێکی دەبێت کە بە ڕاستودروستی قوربانی پێشکەش دەکەن. |
4 When that happens, Yahweh will [again] accept the offerings brought to him by [the people of] Jerusalem and [other places in] Judah, as [he did] previously.
| ئیتر قوربانی یەهودا و ئۆرشەلیم لەلای یەزدان قبوڵ دەبێت، هەروەک ڕۆژانی دێرین، ساڵانی ڕابردوو. |
5 [This is what] the Commander of the armies of angels says: “At that time, I will come to you to judge you. I will quickly testify against [all] those who practice sorcery/witchcraft, [all] who have committed adultery, and [all] liars. [I will testify] against those who have not given their workers the pay/wages that they promised, those who (oppress/treat cruelly) widows and orphans, and those who do not allow foreigners who live among you to be treated fairly. [I will testify that all] the people who do those things do not revere me.”
| «ئینجا بۆ دادگاییکردن دێمە لاتان. خێرا دەبمە شایەت لەسەر سیحرباز و داوێنپیسان، لەسەر ئەوانەی بە درۆ سوێند دەخۆن، لەسەر ئەوانەی پارەی کرێکار دەخۆن، لەسەر ئەوانەی مافی بێوەژن و هەتیو زەوت دەکەن، لەسەر ئەوانەی دەست بە ڕووی کەسی نامۆوە دەنێن و لە من ناترسن.» ئەمە فەرمایشتی یەزدانی سوپاسالارە. |
6 “I am Yahweh, and I never change. And although you [deceive people like] your ancestor Jacob did, I have not [yet] gotten rid of you.
| «من یەزدانم، ناگۆڕێم، ئیتر ئەی نەوەی یاقوب، ئێوە لەناو نەچوون. |
7 You and your ancestors have ignored my commands and you have not obeyed them. [Now] return to me; and when that happens, I will (return/do good) to you. [That is what I, ] the Commander of the armies of angels, say.” But you ask, “[We have never gone away from you, so] how can we return [to you]?”
| لە سەردەمی باوباپیرانتانەوە لە فەرزەکانم لاتان داوە و بەجێتان نەهێناوە. بگەڕێنەوە لام، منیش دەگەڕێمەوە لاتان.» ئەمە فەرمایشتی یەزدانی سوپاسالارە. «بەڵام ئێوە دەپرسن:”چۆن بگەڕێینەوە؟“ |
8 [I reply, ] “People should certainly not [RHQ] cheat God; but you people have cheated me!” You ask, “In what way did we cheat you?” [I reply, ] “[You have cheated me by not bringing to me each year] (the tithes/one tenth of [all] your crops and animals) and [other] offerings [that you are required to give to me].
| «ئایا مرۆڤ خودا تاڵان دەکات؟ چونکە ئێوە تاڵانتان کردم! «بەڵام ئێوە گوتتان:”چۆن تاڵانمان کردی؟“«لە دەیەک و قوربانییەکان تاڵانتان کردم. |
9 All that you do is cursed, because all you people in this country have been cheating me.
| ئێوە، تەواوی ئەم نەتەوەیە، نەفرەتتان لێکراوە، چونکە تاڵانم دەکەن.» |
10 [Now] bring all the tithes to the storage rooms [in the temple], in order that there will be [enough] food [for the people who serve me] there. If you do that, I, the Commander of the armies of angels, promise that I will open the windows of heaven, and pour out [from them] blessings on you. [If you bring your tithes to the temple, the blessings will be] very great, with the result that you will not have enough space to store all of them. So test me [to see if I am telling the truth].
| یەزدانی سوپاسالار دەفەرموێت: «تاقیم بکەنەوە: هەموو دەیەکەکان بۆ ماڵی خەزینە بهێنن، تاکو لە پەرستگاکەم خواردن هەبێت. ئینجا بزانن چۆن پەنجەرەکانی ئاسمانتان بۆ دەکەمەوە و بەرەکەت بەسەرتاندا دەبارێنم، هەتا جێ نەبێت تێی بکەن. |
11 You will have abundant crops [to harvest], because I will protect them in order that they will not be harmed by locusts/insects. Your grapes will not fall from the vines [before they are ripe].
| لەبەر ئێوە ڕێ لە مێروو دەگرم، هەتا بەروبوومی زەوییەکەتان تێکنەدات، دار مێوتان لە کێڵگە بێ بەر نەبێت.» ئەمە فەرمایشتی یەزدانی سوپاسالارە. |
12 When that happens, [the people of] all nations will say that [I] have blessed you, because your country will be delightful. [That is what I, ] the Commander of the armies of angels, say.
| «ئینجا هەموو نەتەوەکان خۆزگەتان پێ دەخوازن، چونکە خاکەکەتان دەبێتە خاکی شادی.» ئەمە فەرمایشتی یەزدانی سوپاسالارە. |
13 [I, ] Yahweh, [have something else] to say [to you]. You have said terrible things about me.” But you reply, “What terrible things have we said about you?”
| یەزدان دەفەرموێت: «قسەکانتان لەسەر من ڕەق بوون.» «ئێوەش دەپرسن:”چیمان لەسەر تۆ گوتووە؟“ |
14 [I reply], “You have said, ‘It is useless [for us] to serve God. We have gained nothing [RHQ] by obeying the commands that he gave [to us] and by trying to show the Commander of the armies of angels that we are sorry [for the sins that we have committed].
| «ئێوە گوتتان:”بەندایەتی خودا بێهوودەیە. چ سوودێکی هەبوو کە فەرمانەکانی ئەومان پاراستووە و بە خەمبارییەوە لەبەردەم یەزدانی سوپاسالار ژیانمان گوزەراندووە؟ |
15 From now on, we will say/consider that those who are proud are [the ones whom God has] blessed. [We will say that because it seems that it is] those who do evil who become rich, and [that it is] those who try to find out how many evil things they can do without God punishing them who are not punished.’”
| بەڵام ئێستا ئێمە خۆزگە بە لووتبەرزان دەخوازین. هەروەها بەدکاران سەرکەوتوون، تەنانەت ئەوانەی خودا تاقی دەکەنەوە، دەرباز دەبن.“» |
16 After [the people heard my message], those who revered Yahweh discussed [those things] with each other, and Yahweh listened to what they said. While Yahweh was watching, they wrote on a scroll the things that would remind them [about what they promised], and they wrote on that scroll the names of those who revered Yahweh and who [said that they] always wanted to honor him [MTY].
| ئینجا ئەوانەی لە یەزدان دەترسان قسەیان لەگەڵ یەکتری کرد، یەزدانیش گوێی شل کرد و گوێی لێبوو. لەبەردەمیدا لە پێچراوەیەک تۆمار کرا، بۆ ئەوەی ببێتە یادەوەرییەک بۆ ئەوانەی لە یەزدان دەترسن و ڕێز لە ناوەکەی دەگرن. |
17 The Commander of the armies of angels says this [about those people]: “They will be my people. At the time that I judge people, [they will be like] [MET] a special treasure to me. I will be kind to them, like [SIM] fathers are kind to their sons who obey them.
| یەزدانی سوپاسالار دەفەرموێت: «ئەوانە دەبنە هی من، لەو ڕۆژە دەبنە گەنجینەیەکی تایبەتی من. بەزەییم پێیاندا دێتەوە وەک چۆن پیاو بەزەیی بە کوڕەکەی دێتەوە کە خزمەتی دەکات. |
18 When that happens, you will again see that [the manner in which I treat] righteous people is different from [the manner in which I treat] wicked people. [You will see that the manner in which I act toward] those who serve me is different from [the manner in which I act toward] those who do not.”
| ئینجا دیسان جیاوازی لەنێوان ڕاستودروستان و خراپەکاراندا دەبینن، لەنێوان ئەوانەی بەندایەتی خودا دەکەن و ئەوانەی نایکەن.» |
