< Aje 2 >

1 Nan venteyen jou nan setyèm mwa a, pawòl SENYÈ a te vin kote Aggée, pwofèt la. Li te di:
In the seuenth moneth, in the one and twentieth day of the moneth, came the worde of the Lord by the ministerie of the Prophet Haggai, saying,
2 “Pale koulye a a Zorobabel, fis a Schealthiel la, gouvènè a Juda a, a Josué, fis a Jotsadak la, wo prèt la e a retay a pèp la e di:
Speake nowe to Zerubbabel the sonne of Shealtiel prince of Iudah, and to Iehoshua the sonne of Iehozadak the hie Priest, and to the residue of the people, saying,
3 ‘Se kilès ki rete pami nou ki te wè tanp sa a lontan nan tout glwa li? Se kijan nou wè li koulye a? Èske li pa vin pa sanble anyen nan zye nou?
Who is left among you, that sawe this House in her first glory, and howe doe you see it nowe? is it not in your eyes, in comparison of it as nothing?
4 Men koulye a, se pou ou vin dyanm, Zorobabel,’ deklare SENYÈ a: ‘Se pou ou vin dyanm, ou menm tou, Josué, fis a Jotsadak la, wo prèt la, e tout pèp peyi a, se pou nou vin dyanm,’ deklare SENYÈ a: ‘epi travay, paske Mwen avèk nou,’ deklare SENYÈ dèzame yo.
Yet nowe be of good courage, O Zerubbabel, sayth the Lord, and be of good comfort, O Iehoshua, sonne of Iehozadak the hie Priest: and be strong, all ye people of the land, sayth the Lord, and doe it: for I am with you, sayth the Lord of hostes,
5 Selon pwomès ke M te fè nou an, depi lè nou te sòti nan peyi Égypte la, Lespri M t ap viv pami nou. ‘Pa pè anyen!’
According to the worde that I couenanted with you, when ye came out of Egypt: so my Spirite shall remaine among you, feare ye not.
6 Paske konsa pale SENYÈ dèzame yo: ‘Yon fwa ankò nan yon ti tan, Mwen va souke syèl yo, tè a, lanmè a ak tè sèch la.
For thus sayth the Lord of hostes, Yet a litle while, and I will shake the heauens and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land:
7 Mwen va souke tout nasyon yo. Konsa, gwo richès de tout nasyon yo va vini, e Mwen va plen kay sa a ak glwa,’ pale SENYÈ dèzame yo.
And I will moue all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come, and I will fill this House with glory, sayth the Lord of hostes.
8 ‘Ajan se pa M, e lò se pa M’, deklare SENYÈ dèzame yo.
The siluer is mine, and the golde is mine, sayth the Lord of hostes.
9 ‘Denyè glwa kay sa a, va pi gran ke ansyen an,’ pale SENYÈ dèzame yo: ‘Epi nan plas sa a, Mwen va bay Lapè’, deklare SENYÈ dèzame yo.”
The glory of this last House shall be greater then the first, sayth the Lord of hostes: and in this place will I giue peace, sayth the Lord of hostes.
10 Nan venn-kat nan nevyèm mwa a, nan dezyèm ane Darius la, pawòl SENYÈ a te vini a Aggée, pwofèt la. Li te di:
In the foure and twentieth day of the ninth moneth, in the second yeere of Darius, came the worde of the Lord vnto the Prophet Haggai, saying,
11 “Konsa pale SENYÈ dèzame yo: ‘Kounye a mande prèt yo konsènan Lalwa a. Mande yo:
Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, Aske nowe the Priests concerning the Law, and say,
12 Si yon nonm pote vyann sakre vlope nan ke wòb li, e avèk ke wòb li, li touche pen, manje kwit, diven, lwil, oswa nenpòt lòt manje, èske sa ki touche pa li menm va vin sakre?’” Prèt yo te reponn: “Non”.
If one beare holy flesh in the skirt of his garment, and with his skirt doe touch the bread, or the potage, or the wine, or oyle, or any meate, shall it be holy? And the Priests answered and said, No.
13 Anplis, Aggée te mande: “Si yon moun ki pa pwòp akoz yon kadav, ta touche nenpòt bagay nan sa yo, èske moun sa va pa pwòp?” Prèt yo te reponn: “Yo va vin pa pwòp.”
Then sayde Haggai, If a polluted person touch any of these, shall it be vncleane? And the Priests answered, and sayd, It shalbe vncleane.
14 Epi Aggée te di: “‘Se konsa pèp sa a ye. Epi se konsa nasyon sa a ye devan Mwen,’ deklare SENYÈ a: ‘Anplis, se konsa tout zèv men yo, ak sa ke yo ofri la yo, vin pa pwòp.
Then answered Haggai, and sayd, So is this people, and so is this nation before me, saith the Lord: and so are all the workes of their hands, and that which they offer here, is vncleane.
15 Alò, koulye a, m ap priye nou byen konsidere sa soti nan jou sa a pou gade dèyè nèt: avan yon sèl wòch te plase sou yon wòch sou tanp SENYÈ a.
And nowe, I pray you, consider in your mindes: from this day, and afore, euen afore a stone was layde vpon a stone in the Temple of the Lord:
16 Pandan tout tan sa a, lè yon moun te rive sou yon pil sereyal ak ven mezi, te gen sèlman dis. Lè yon moun te rive sou gwo ja diven, pou rale retire senkant mezi, te gen sèlman ven.
Before these things were, when one came to an heape of twentie measures, there were but ten: when one came to the wine presse for to drawe out fiftie vessels out of the presse, there were but twentie.
17 Tout zèv ki te fèt ak men nou yo, Mwen te frape ak destriksyon, lakanni, ak lagrèl. Malgre sa, nou pa t retounen vin jwenn Mwen,’ deklare SENYÈ a.
I smote you with blasting, and with mildewe, and with haile, in all the labours of your hands: yet you turned not to me, saith the Lord.
18 ‘Byen konsidere sa, m ap priye nou. Soti nan jou sa a gade dèyè nèt, soti nan venn-katriyèm jou nan nevyèm mwa a; depi jou lè tanp SENYÈ a te fonde a, konsidere sa:
Consider, I pray you, in your mindes, from this day, and afore from the foure and twentieth day of the ninth moneth, euen from the day that the foundation of the Lords Temple was laide: consider it in your mindes.
19 Èske semans lan gen tan rive nan depo a? Menm pye rezen an, pye fig etranje a, pye grenad ak bwa doliv la, pa reyisi pote anyen. Malgre sa, soti nan jou sila a, Mwen va beni nou.’”
Is the seede yet in the barne? as yet the vine, and the figtree, and the pomegranate, and the oliue tree hath not brought forth: from this day will I blesse you.
20 Konsa, pawòl SENYÈ a te vini yon dezyèm fwa a Aggée nan venn-katriyèm jou nan mwa a e te di:
And againe the worde of the Lord came vnto Haggai in the foure and twentieth day of the moneth, saying,
21 “Pale ak Zorobabel, gouvènè a Juda a e di: ‘Mwen va souke syèl yo ak tè a.
Speake to Zerubbabel the prince of Iudah, and say, I wil shake the heauens and the earth,
22 Mwen va boulvèse twòn a wayòm yo, e detwi pouvwa wayòm a nasyon yo. Epi Mwen va boulvèse cha lagè yo ansanm ak sila k ap kondwi cha yo. Cheval yo ak chevalye yo va tonbe, yo tout pa nepe a frè yo.’
And I will ouerthrowe the throne of kingdomes, and I wil destroy the strength of the kingdomes of the heathen, and I wil ouerthrowe the charets, and those that ride in them, and the horse and the riders shall come downe, euery one by the sword of his brother.
23 ‘Nan jou sa a,’ deklare SENYÈ dèzame yo: “Mwen va pran ou, Zorobabel, fis a Schealthiel la, sèvitè Mwen an,’ deklare SENYÈ a. ‘Epi konsa, Mwen va fè ou vin tankou yon bag so, paske Mwen te chwazi ou,’ deklare SENYÈ dèzame yo.”
In that day, saith the Lord of hostes, will I take thee, O Zerubbabel my seruant, the sonne of Shealtiel, sayth the Lord, and wil make thee as a signet: for I haue chosen thee, sayth the Lord of hostes.
