< Malachi 3 >

1 Lo, I am sending My messenger, And he hath prepared a way before Me, And suddenly come in unto his temple Doth the Lord whom ye are seeking, Even the messenger of the covenant, Whom ye are desiring, Lo, he is coming, said Jehovah of Hosts.
Hina Gode Bagadedafa da agoane adole iaha, “Na da Na sia: sia: na ahoasu dunu, Na logo fodoma: ne, amo asunasimu. Amasea, Hina Gode amo dilia hogoi helesa, E da hedolodafa Ea Debolo diasuga doaga: mu. Amo sia: sia: na ahoasu dunu dilia ba: mu hanai gala, amo da misini, Na gousa: su amo dilima sisia: mu.
2 And who is bearing the day of his coming? And who is standing in his appearing? For he [is] as fire of a refiner, And as soap of a fuller.
Be e da masea, nowa da moloiwane leloma: bela: ? E da aliaguda: lalebe ba: sea, nowa da mae bogole esaloma: bela: ? E da nigima: doga: su liligi gasa bagade agoai ba: mu, amola lalu bagade amo da silifa amola gouli ledo fadegasu agoane ba: mu.
3 And he hath sat, a refiner and purifier of silver, And he hath purified the sons of Levi, And hath refined them as gold and as silver, And they have been to Jehovah bringing nigh a present in righteousness.
E da dunu amo da silifa amola gouli amoga ledo doga: su, amo defele e da fofada: musa: misunu. Amo silifa amola gouli hahamosu dunu da silifa amola gouli amoga ledo doga: sa, amo defele Hina Gode Ea sia: sia: na ahoasu dunu da gobele salasu dunu ilima ledo doga: sea, ilia da gobele salasu noga: idafa bu gaguli misunu.
4 And sweet to Jehovah hath been the present of Judah and Jerusalem, As in days of old, and as in former years.
Amasea, Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade dunu amola Yuda fi dunu huluane da Hina Godema gobele salasu liligi gaguli masea, Hina Gode da musa: agoane iasu amoma hahawane ba: mu.
5 And I have drawn near to you for judgment, And I have been a witness, Making haste against sorcerers, And against adulterers, And against swearers to a falsehood, And against oppressors of the hire of an hireling, Of a widow, and of a fatherless one, And those turning aside a sojourner, And who fear Me not, said Jehovah of Hosts.
Hina Gode Bagadedafa da amane sia: sa, “Na da dilima aliaguda: lalebe ba: sea, fofada: mu galebe. Na da wadela: i hamosu dunuma fofada: mu amo fefedoasu dunu, inia uda adole lasu dunu, ogogosu dunu, nowa da ea hawa: hamosu dunuma ea bidi imunu sia: i amo hame iaha, nowa da didalo, guluba: mano amola ga fi ilima wadela: le hamosu dunu amola Nama hame nodosu dunu, amo huluane ilima Na da fofada: mu,” Hina Gode da amane sia: sa.
6 For I [am] Jehovah, I have not changed, And ye, the sons of Jacob, Ye have not been consumed.
“Na da Hina Godedafa! Na da hame afadenesa. Amaiba: le, dilia Ya: igobe egaga fi mogili da hame fisi, esalebe ba: sa.
7 Even from the days of your fathers Ye have turned aside from My statutes, And ye have not taken heed. Turn back unto Me, and I turn back to you, Said Jehovah of Hosts. And ye have said, 'In what do we turn back?'
Dilia da dilia aowalali defele, Na Sema amo higabeba: le, wadela: lesi dagoi. Be wali dilia Nama sinidigima. Amasea, Na amola da dilima sinidigimu. Be dilia da Nama adole ba: sa, ‘Ninia da habodane Dima sinidigima: bela: ?’
8 Doth man deceive God? but ye are deceiving Me, And ye have said: 'In what have we deceived Thee?' The tithe and the heave-offering!
Na da dilima agoane adole ba: sa, ‘Godema ogogosu hamomu da defeala: ?’ Hame mabu! Amo da defea hame galebe. Be dilia da Nama ogogosu hou hamonana. Be dilia da Nama adole ba: sa, ‘Ninia da Dima habodane ogogosu hou hamosala: ?’ Na da dilima bu adole iaha, ‘Dilia Nama iabe, amo ‘daide’ (dilia gagui nabuane momogili, afae Nama iaha), amola hahawane udigili iasu hou amo ganodini Nama ogogosa.’
9 With a curse ye are cursed! And Me ye are deceiving — this nation — all of it.
Isala: ili dunu fi huluanedafa da Nama ogogole hedebeba: le, Na gagabusu da ilima aligisa.
10 Bring in all the tithe unto the treasure-house, And there is food in My house; When ye have tried Me, now, with this, Said Jehovah of Hosts, Do not I open to you the windows of heaven? Yea, I have emptied on you a blessing till there is no space.
Be dilia ogogosu hedesu fisili, “daide” liligi huluanedafa amo Debolo diasuga gaguli misa. Amasea, Debolo diasu ganodini, ha: i manu defele agoane da ba: mu. Nama adoba: le ba: ma. Amasea, Na da Hebene logo doasili, hahawane dogolegesu hou bagadedafa amo dilima gugudili sogadigimu. Amasea, dilia da liligi noga: idafa labeba: le, lelegesu diasu da baligili nabaidafa ba: mu.
11 And I have pushed for you against the consumer, And He doth not destroy to you the fruit of the ground, Nor miscarry to you doth the vine in the field, Said Jehovah of Hosts.
Na da sia: beba: le, danuba: da dilia ha: i manu bugi amo hame wadela: lesimu. Amola dilia waini efe da waini fage bagohame legebe ba: mu.
12 And declared you happy have all the nations, For ye are a delightful land, said Jehovah of Hosts.
Amasea, osobo bagade fifi asi gala dunu huluane da dilia da Gode Ea hahawane dogolegei fi amo sia: mu. Bai dilia soge da fimu noga: i soge ba: mu.
13 Hard against Me have been your words, Said Jehovah, and ye have said: 'What have we spoken against Thee?'
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Dilia da Na hou amoma lasogole bagadewane sia: su. Be dilia da agoane adole ba: sa, ‘Ninia da Dia hou olelema: ne adi sia: bela: ?’
14 Ye have said, 'A vain thing to serve God! And what gain when we kept His charge? And when we have gone in black, Because of Jehovah of Hosts?
Dilia da amane sia: su, ‘Gode Ea hawa: hamosu hamomu da hamedei. Ninia Hina Gode Bagadedafa Ea sia: amoga fa: no bobogemu amola Ema sinidigima: ne fofada: ne, asigi sia: sia: mu da hamedei liligi agoai galebe.
15 And now, we are declaring the proud happy, Yea, built up have been those doing wickedness, Yea they have tempted God, and escape.'
Ninia ba: loba, gasa fi dunu ilia fawane da hahawane esala. Wadela: i dunu da hahawane liligi bagade gagusa. Amola, ilia da Godema wadela: i adoba: su hou hamonana, amola Gode da ilima se hame iaha,’ dilia da agoane sia: sa.”
16 Then have those fearing Jehovah spoken one to another, And Jehovah doth attend and hear, And written is a book of memorial before Him Of those fearing Jehovah, And of those esteeming His name.
Amasea, Hina Godema beda: iwane dawa: su dunu da gilisili sia: dasu. Amola Hina Gode da ilia sia: dasu nabi dagoi. Amola E ba: ma: ne, a:igele dunu da buga ganodini, dunu amola uda huluane da Hina Godema beda: iwane dawa: su amola Ema nodosu, ilia dio huluane dedei dagoi.
17 And they have been to Me, said Jehovah of Hosts, In the day that I am appointing — a peculiar treasure, And I have had pity on them, As one hath pity on his son who is serving him.
Amola Hina Gode Bagadedafa da amane sia: i, “Amo dunu amola uda da Na fidafa esalumu. Na eso Bagadedafa da doaga: sea, ilia da Na dunudafa esalebe ba: mu. Osobo bagade ada da ea mano amo da ea hawa: hamosa, ilima asigiba: le gogolema: ne olofosa, amo defele Na da amo dunu ilima asigimu amola gogolema: ne olofomu.
18 And ye have turned back and considered, Between the righteous and the wicked, Between the servant of God and him who is not His servant.
Amola Na fi dunu da Na houdafa bu ba: mu. Amola hou da fa: no moloidafa dunu amoga doaga: mu da hou hisu amola hou da wadela: i hamosu dunu amoma doaga: mu da hou hisu, amo ilia da ba: mu. Amola Nama hawa: hamosu dunu ilia da hou hisu ba: mu, amola Nama fa: no bobogemu higa: i dunu ilia da hou hisu ba: mu, amo ilia da dawa: mu.
