Haggai 1
1 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.
In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, in the first day of the month, the word of the Lord came by the hand of Aggeus the prophet, to Zorobabel the son of Salathiel, governor of Juda, and to Jesus the son of Josedec the high priest, saying:
2 Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, “Waɗannan mutane sun ce, ‘Lokaci bai yi ba tukuna da za a gina gidan Ubangiji.’”
Thus saith the Lord of hosts, saying: This people saith: The time is not yet come for building the house of the Lord.
3 Sa’an nan maganar Ubangiji ta zo ta wurin annabi Haggai cewa,
And the word of the Lord came by the hand of Aggeus the prophet, saying:
4 “Ashe, lokaci ya yi da za ku zauna a ɗakunan da kuka yi da rufin katako, amma haikalin nan yana zaman kufai?”
Is it time for you to dwell in ceiled houses, and this house lie desolate?
5 To, ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, “Ku lura da al’amuranku.
And now thus saith the Lord of hosts: Set your hearts to consider your ways.
6 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.”
You have sowed much, and brought in little: you have eaten, but have not had enough: you have drunk, but have not been filled with drink: you have clothed yourselves, but have not been warmed: and he that hath earned wages, put them into a bag with holes.
7 Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, “Ku lura da al’amuranku.
Thus saith the Lord of hosts: Set Your hearts upon your ways:
8 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.
Go up to the mountain, bring timber, and build the house: and it shall be acceptable to me, and I shall be glorified, saith the Lord.
9 “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.
You have looked for more, and behold it became less, and you brought it home, and I blowed it away: why, saith the Lord of hosts? because my house is desolate, and you make haste every man to his own house.
10 Shi ya sa, saboda ku sammai sun ƙi saukar da raɓa, ƙasa kuma ta ƙi ba da amfani.
Therefore the heavens over you were stayed from giving dew, and the earth was hindered from yielding her fruits:
11 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.”
And I called for a drought upon the land, and upon the mountains, and upon the corn, and upon the wine, and upon the oil, and upon all that the ground bringeth forth, and upon men, and upon beasts, and upon all the labour of the hands.
12 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.
Then Zorobabel the son of Salathiel, and Jesus the son of Josedec the high priest, and all the remnant of the people hearkened to the voice of the Lord their God, and to the words of Aggeus the prophet, as the Lord their God sent him to them: and the people feared before the Lord.
13 Sai Haggai, ɗan saƙon Ubangiji, ya ba da wannan saƙo na Ubangiji ga mutane cewa, “Ina tare da ku” in ji Ubangiji.
And Aggeus the messenger of the Lord, as one of the messengers of the Lord, spoke, saying to the people: I am with you, saith the Lord.
14 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,
And the Lord stirred up the spirit of Zorobabel the son of Salathiel governor of Juda, and the spirit of Jesus the son of Josedec the high priest, and the spirit of all the rest of the people: and they went in, and did the work in the house of the Lord of hosts their God.
15 a ranar ashirin da huɗu ga watan shida. A shekara ta biyu ta mulkin Sarki Dariyus,
In the four and twentieth day of the month, in the sixth month, in the second year of Darius the king, they began.
