< Haggai 2 >
1 a ranar ashirin da ɗaya ga watan bakwai, maganar Ubangiji ta zo ta wurin annabi Haggai cewa,
In the seventh [month], in the one and twentieth [day] of the month, came the word of the LORD by the prophet Haggai, saying,
2 “Ka yi magana da Zerubbabel ɗan Sheyaltiyel wanda yake gwamna a Yahuda, da Yoshuwa ɗan Yehozadak, babban firist, da kuma dukan raguwar mutane. Ka tambaye su ka ce,
Speak now to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, and to the residue of the people, saying,
3 ‘Wane ne a cikinku ya ragu da ya ga wannan gida a darajarsa ta dā? Yaya yake a gare ku a yanzu? Bai yi kamar a bakin kome ba, ko ba haka ba?
Who [is] left among you that saw this house in her first glory? and how do ye see it now? [is it] not in your eyes in comparison of it as nothing?
4 Amma yanzu ka ƙarfafa, ya Zerubbabel,’ in ji Ubangiji. ‘Ka ƙarfafa, ya Yoshuwa ɗan Yehozadak, babban firist. Ku ƙarfafa, dukanku mutanen ƙasar,’ in ji Ubangiji, ‘ku yi aiki. Gama ina tare da ku,’ in ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki.
Yet now be strong, O Zerubbabel, saith the LORD; and be strong, O Joshua, son of Josedech, the high priest; and be strong, all ye people of the land, saith the LORD, and work: for I [am] with you, saith the LORD of hosts:
5 ‘Wannan shi ne alkawarin da na yi da ku a lokacin da kuka fito daga Masar. Ruhuna kuwa yana tare da ku. Kada ku ji tsoro.’
[According to] the word that I covenanted with you when ye came out of Egypt, so my spirit remaineth among you: fear ye not.
6 “Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, ‘Ba da jimawa ba zan sāke girgiza sammai da kuma ƙasa, teku da busasshiyar ƙasa.
For thus saith the LORD of hosts; Yet once, it [is] a little while, and I will shake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry [land; ]
7 Zan girgiza dukan al’ummai, marmarin kowace al’umma kuma zai taso, sa’an nan zan cika gidan nan da ɗaukaka,’ in ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki.
And I will shake all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, saith the LORD of hosts.
8 ‘Da zinariya da azurfa duka nawa ne,’ in ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki.
The silver [is] mine, and the gold [is] mine, saith the LORD of hosts.
9 ‘Ɗaukakar gidan nan na yanzu za tă fi ɗaukakar gidan nan na dā,’ in ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki. ‘A wannan wuri kuma zan ba da salama,’ in ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki.”
The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former, saith the LORD of hosts: and in this place will I give peace, saith the LORD of hosts.
10 A ranar ashirin da huɗu ga watan tara, a shekara ta biyu ta mulkin Dariyus, maganar Ubangiji ta zo wa annabi Haggai cewa,
In the four and twentieth [day] of the ninth [month], in the second year of Darius, came the word of the LORD by Haggai the prophet, saying,
11 “Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, ‘Ku tambayi firist abin da doka ta ce.
Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Ask now the priests [concerning] the law, saying,
12 Idan mutum yana riƙe da naman da aka keɓe a rigarsa, sa’an nan kuma wannan rigar ta taɓa burodi, ko dafaffen abinci, ko ruwan inabi, ko mai, ko kowane irin abinci, wannan zai sa abin yă zama tsarkake?’” Firistoci suka amsa, suka ce, “A’a.”
If one bear holy flesh in the skirt of his garment, and with his skirt do touch bread, or pottage, or wine, or oil, or any meat, shall it be holy? And the priests answered and said, No.
13 Sa’an nan Haggai ya ce, “In mutumin da ya ƙazantar da kansa ta wurin taɓa gawa, ya taɓa wani daga cikin waɗannan abubuwa, za su ƙazantu?” Firistoci suka amsa, suka ce, “I, zai ƙazantu.”
Then said Haggai, If [one that is] unclean by a dead body touch any of these, shall it be unclean? And the priests answered and said, It shall be unclean.
14 Sai annabi Haggai ya ce, “‘Haka yake da wannan mutane da kuma wannan al’umma a gabana,’ in ji Ubangiji. ‘Duk abin da suke yi da kuma dukan abin da suke miƙawa ƙazantattu ne.
Then answered Haggai, and said, So [is] this people, and so [is] this nation before me, saith the LORD; and so [is] every work of their hands; and that which they offer there [is] unclean.
15 “‘Yanzu kuwa sai ku yi la’akari da wannan daga wannan rana zuwa gaba, ku tuna yadda al’amura suke kafin a ɗora wani dutse bisa wani a haikalin Ubangiji.
And now, I pray you, consider from this day and upward, from before a stone was laid upon a stone in the temple of the LORD:
16 A lokacin, idan wani ya tafi wurin tsibin da zai auna mudu ashirin, sai yă iske mudu goma kawai. Idan kuma wani ya tafi wurin matse ruwan inabi don yă ɗebo lita hamsin, sai yă tarar da lita ashirin kawai.
Since those [days] were, when [one] came to an heap of twenty [measures], there were [but] ten: when [one] came to the pressfat for to draw out fifty [vessels] out of the press, there were [but] twenty.
17 Na mai da aikin da kuka sha wahala kuka yi ya zama banza ta wurin saukar da burtuntuna, da fumfuna, da ƙanƙara, duk da haka ba ku juyo gare ni ba,’ in ji Ubangiji.
I smote you with blasting and with mildew and with hail in all the labours of your hands; yet ye [turned] not to me, saith the LORD.
18 ‘Daga wannan rana zuwa gaba, wato, rana ta ashirin da huɗu ga watan tara, ku lura da ranar da aka kafa harsashin haikalin Ubangiji. Ku lura da kyau.
Consider now from this day and upward, from the four and twentieth day of the ninth [month, even] from the day that the foundation of the LORD’s temple was laid, consider [it].
19 Akwai sauran irin da ya rage a rumbu? Har yanzu, kuringar inabi da itacen ɓaure, rumman da itacen zaitun ba su ba da’ya’ya ba tukuna. “‘Amma daga wannan rana zuwa gaba zan sa muku albarka.’”
Is the seed yet in the barn? yea, as yet the vine, and the fig tree, and the pomegranate, and the olive tree, hath not brought forth: from this day will I bless [you].
20 Maganar Ubangiji ta zo wa annabi Haggai sau na biyu a rana ta ashirin da huɗu ga wata cewa,
And again the word of the LORD came unto Haggai in the four and twentieth [day] of the month, saying,
21 “Ka faɗa wa Zerubbabel gwamnan Yahuda cewa zan girgiza sammai da ƙasa.
Speak to Zerubbabel, governor of Judah, saying, I will shake the heavens and the earth;
22 Zan hamɓarar da gadajen mulki in kuma ragargaza ƙarfin ƙasashen al’ummai. Zan tumɓuke kekunan yaƙi da mahayansu; dawakai da mahayansu za su mutu, kowane ta wurin takobin ɗan’uwansu.
And I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms, and I will destroy the strength of the kingdoms of the heathen; and I will overthrow the chariots, and those that ride in them; and the horses and their riders shall come down, every one by the sword of his brother.
23 “‘A wannan rana,’ in ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, ‘Zan ɗauke ka, bawana Zerubbabel ɗan Sheyaltiyel,’ in ji Ubangiji, ‘in kuma maishe ka kamar zoben hatimi, gama na zaɓe ka,’ in ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki.”
In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, will I take thee, O Zerubbabel, my servant, the son of Shealtiel, saith the LORD, and will make thee as a signet: for I have chosen thee, saith the LORD of hosts.
