< Haggai 1 >
1 In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, on the first day of the month, the word of Yahweh came by the hand of Haggai the prophet to the governor of Judah, Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, and to the high priest Joshua son of Jehozadak, saying,
A shekara ta biyu ta mulkin Sarki Dariyus, a rana ta fari ga watan shida, maganar Ubangiji ta zo ta wurin annabi Haggai zuwa ga Zerubbabel ɗan Sheyaltiyel, gwamnan Yahuda, da kuma Yoshuwa ɗan Yehozadak, babban firist.
2 “Yahweh of hosts says this: These people say, 'It is not time for us to come or to build Yahweh's house.'”
Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, “Waɗannan mutane sun ce, ‘Lokaci bai yi ba tukuna da za a gina gidan Ubangiji.’”
3 Then the word of Yahweh came by the hand of Haggai the prophet, saying,
Sa’an nan maganar Ubangiji ta zo ta wurin annabi Haggai cewa,
4 “Is it a time for you yourselves to live in your finished houses, while this house lies ruined?
“Ashe, lokaci ya yi da za ku zauna a ɗakunan da kuka yi da rufin katako, amma haikalin nan yana zaman kufai?”
5 So now Yahweh of hosts says this: Consider your ways!
To, ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, “Ku lura da al’amuranku.
6 You have sown much seed, but bring in little harvest; you eat but do not have enough; you drink but cannot get drunk. You wear clothes but cannot warm yourselves, and the wage earner earns money only to put it into a bag full of holes!
Kun shuka da yawa, amma kun girbe kaɗan. Kun ci, amma ba ku ƙoshi ba. Kun sha, amma ba ku kashe ƙishirwa ba. Kun sa tufafi, amma ba ku ji ɗumi ba. Kuna karɓar albashi, ya zama sai ka ce kuna zuba a hudajjen aljihu.”
7 Yahweh of hosts says this: “Consider your ways!
Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, “Ku lura da al’amuranku.
8 Go up to the mountain, bring timber, and build my house; then I will take pleasure in it, and I will be glorified!—says Yahweh.”
Ku haura zuwa kan duwatsu ku sauko da katakai don ku gina gidan, don ni ma in ji daɗinsa, in kuma sami ɗaukaka,” in ji Ubangiji.
9 “You looked for much, but behold! you have brought little home, for I blew it away! Why?” declares Yahweh of hosts. “Because my house lies in ruins, while every one of you is working on his own house.
“Ga shi, kukan sa rai za ku sami da yawa, amma sai ku ga kun sami kaɗan. Ɗan kaɗan ɗin ma da kukan kawo gida, nakan hura shi yă tafi. Me ya sa yake faruwa haka?” In ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki. “Saboda gidana da yake zaman kango, yayinda kowannenku yana faman gina gidansa.
10 Because of this the heavens withhold the dew from you, and the earth withholds its produce.
Shi ya sa, saboda ku sammai sun ƙi saukar da raɓa, ƙasa kuma ta ƙi ba da amfani.
11 I have summoned a drought upon the land and upon the mountains, upon the grain and upon the new wine, upon the oil and upon the harvest of the earth, upon men and upon beasts, and upon all the labor of your hands!”
Na kawo fări a ƙasar, da a kan duwatsu, da a kan hatsi, da a kan dukan abin da yake tsirowa daga ƙasa, da a kan mutane, da a kan dabbobi da kuma a kan wahalar hannuwanku.”
12 Then Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, and the high priest Joshua son of Jehozadak, along with all the remnant of the people, obeyed the voice of Yahweh their God and the words of Haggai the prophet, because Yahweh their God had sent him and the people feared the face of Yahweh.
Sa’an nan sai Zerubbabel ɗan Sheyaltiyel, da Yoshuwa ɗan Yehozadak, wanda yake babban firist, da kuma dukan raguwar jama’ar suka yi biyayya da muryar Ubangiji Allahnsu da kuma saƙon annabi Haggai, domin Ubangiji Allahnsu ne ya aiko shi. Mutane kuwa suka ji tsoron Ubangiji.
13 Then Haggai, the messenger of Yahweh, spoke Yahweh's message to the people and said, “I am with you!—this is Yahweh's declaration!”
Sai Haggai, ɗan saƙon Ubangiji, ya ba da wannan saƙo na Ubangiji ga mutane cewa, “Ina tare da ku” in ji Ubangiji.
14 So Yahweh stirred up the spirit of the governor of Judah, Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, and the spirit of the high priest Joshua son of Jehozadak, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people, so that they went and worked on the house of Yahweh of hosts, their God
Saboda haka Ubangiji ya motsa zuciyar Zerubbabel ɗan Sheyaltiyel, wanda yake gwamna a Yahuda, da kuma zuciyar Yoshuwa ɗan Yehozadak, babban firist, da kuma zukatan dukan raguwar jama’ar. Suka zo suka fara aiki a gidan Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, Allahnsu,
