< Hagai 1 >
1 Le Fia Darius ƒe dziɖuɖu ƒe ƒe evelia me le ɣleti adelia ƒe ŋkeke gbãtɔ dzi la, Yehowa ƒe gbe va to Hagai, nyagblɔɖila la dzi na Yudatɔwo ƒe anyigbadziɖulagã, Zerubabel, Sealtiel ƒe vi kple nunɔlagã Yosua, Yehozadak ƒe vi dzi.
Ngomnyaka wesibili kaDariyusi inkosi, ngenyanga yesithupha, ngosuku lokuqala lwenyanga, kwafika ilizwi leNkosi ngesandla sikaHagayi umprofethi kuZerubhabheli indodana kaSheyalithiyeli, umbusi wakoJuda, lakuJoshuwa indodana kaJehozadaki, umpristi omkhulu, lisithi:
2 Ale Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la gblɔe nye esi: “Ame siawo le gbɔgblɔm be, ‘Ɣeyiɣi mede ne woagbugbɔ nye gbedoxɔ atu o.’”
Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla, isithi: Lababantu bathi: Isikhathi kasikafiki, isikhathi sokuthi indlu yeNkosi yakhiwe.
3 Tete Yehowa ƒe gbe va to Nyagblɔɖila Hagai dzi be,
Laselifika ilizwi leNkosi ngesandla sikaHagayi umprofethi, lisithi:
4 “Ɖe ɣeyiɣi de be miawo ya mianɔ aƒe nyuiwo me esi nye gbedoxɔ ƒe glikpowo gale nenema koa?”
Kuyisikhathi senu yini, lina ngokwenu, sokuthi lihlale ezindlini zenu ezembeswe ngaphakathi ngamapulanka, kanti le indlu ilunxiwa?
5 Azɔ la Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la gblɔ be, “Mibu ta me nyuie tso miaƒe zɔzɔme ŋuti.
Ngakho khathesi itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla: Bekani inhliziyo yenu ezindleleni zenu.
6 Mieƒãa nuku taŋtaŋ gake nuku ʋɛ aɖewo ko mieŋena. Mieɖua nu gake meɖia ƒo na mi o. Mienoa nu gake meɖia kɔ na mi o, mietaa avɔ gake medea dzo lãme na mi o. Miexɔa fetu ke ɖeko mietsɔnɛ dea kotoku ŋɔŋɔ me.”
Lihlanyele okunengi, langenisa okulutshwana; liyadla, kodwa kalisuthi; liyanatha, kodwa kalikholwa; liyagqoka, kodwa kakho okhudumalayo, lohola umholo uholela umholo esikhwameni esibhobokileyo.
7 Ale Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la gblɔe nye esi, “Mibu ta me nyuie tso miaƒe zɔzɔme ŋu.
Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla: Bekani inhliziyo yenu ezindleleni zenu.
8 Miyi ɖe towo dzi ne miatso atiwo vɛ ne miatsɔ agbugbɔ atu nye gbedoxɔe. Ekema makpɔ ŋudzedze le eŋuti wòade bubu ŋunye.” Yehowae gblɔe.
Yenyukelani entabeni, lilethe izigodo, liyakhe indlu; njalo ngizathokoza ngayo, ngidunyiswe, itsho iNkosi.
9 “Miele mɔ kpɔm na nu geɖe, ke nu ʋɛ aɖe ko miekpɔ, eye ne mietsɔe va aƒe mee la, meɖoa ƒuƒu ɖee, eye metɔna ɖe mia si o. Nu ka tae?” Yehowa Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ lae gblɔe. “Elabena nye gbedoxɔ ganye gli gbagbã li ko, ke mia dome ame sia ame le ʋiʋlim be miatso aƒe nyuiwo na mia ɖokuiwo.
Belikhangele okunengi, kodwa khangelani, kube kulutshwana; lapho likuletha ekhaya, ngikuphephethile. Kungani? itsho iNkosi yamabandla. Ngenxa yendlu yami elunxiwa, kanti lina liyagijimela ngulowo lalowo endlini yakhe.
10 Esia tae dziƒowo te zãmu mi eye anyigba gbe nukuwo nana mi ɖo.
Ngakho-ke amazulu phezu kwenu ayagodla ukuze kungabi lamazolo, lomhlabathi uyagodla izithelo zawo.
11 Meɖe gbe be ku neɖi le agblewo kple towo dzi. Kuɖiɖi ana bli, wain yeye, ami kple miaƒe agblemenu bubuwo nagblẽ. Kuɖiɖi la nava amegbetɔwo, lãwo kple amegbetɔwo ƒe asinudɔwɔwɔ ɖe sia ɖe dzi.”
Ngasengibiza ukoma phezu kwelizwe, laphezu kwezintaba, laphezu kwamabele, laphezu kwewayini elitsha, laphezu kwamafutha, laphezu kwalokho umhlabathi okuvezayo, laphezu kwabantu, laphezu kwezinkomo, laphezu kwawo wonke umsebenzi wezandla.
12 Tete Zerubabel, Sealtiel ƒe vi, Yosua, Yehozadak ƒe vi, nunɔlagã kple ame mamlɛawo katã ɖo to Nyagblɔɖila Hagai ƒe gbedeasi si wòxɔ tso Yehowa, woƒe Mawu la gbɔ elabena woxɔe se be Yehowa, woƒe Mawu lae dɔe eya ta ameawo vɔ̃ Yehowa eye wosubɔe.
Khona uZerubhabheli indodana kaSheyalithiyeli, loJoshuwa indodana kaJehozadaki, umpristi omkhulu, layo yonke insali yabantu, balilalela ilizwi leNkosi uNkulunkulu wabo, lamazwi kaHagayi umprofethi, njengoba iNkosi uNkulunkulu wabo wayemthumile; njalo abantu besaba phambi kweNkosi.
13 Le esia megbe la, Hagai, Yehowa ƒe ame dɔdɔ, tsɔ Yehowa ƒe gbedeasi sia na ameawo, “Meli kpli mi,” Yehowae gblɔe.
Wasekhuluma uHagayi isithunywa seNkosi ngelizwi leNkosi ebantwini, esithi: Ngilani, itsho iNkosi.
14 Ale Yehowa de dzo Zerubabel, Sealtiel ƒe vi, ame si nye Yudatɔwo ƒe anyigbadziɖulagã kple Yosua, Yehozadak ƒe vi, nunɔlagã la kple ame mamlɛawo ƒe gbɔgbɔ me. Woƒo ƒu eye wodze Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ, woƒe Mawu la ƒe gbedoxɔ tutu gɔme
INkosi yasivusa umoya kaZerubhabheli indodana kaSheyalithiyeli, umbusi wakoJuda, lomoya kaJoshuwa indodana kaJehozadaki, umpristi omkhulu, lomoya wensali yonke yabantu; basebesiza, benza umsebenzi endlini yeNkosi yamabandla, uNkulunkulu wabo,

ngosuku lwamatshumi amabili lane lwenyanga yesithupha, ngomnyaka wesibili kaDariyusi inkosi.
