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 among you has been left that saw this house in its former glory? And what are you seeing it now? Is it not, compared with it, as nothing in your eyes?
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.

For thus said YHWH of Hosts: “Yet once more—it [is] a little, And I am shaking 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 have shaken all the nations, And they have come [to] the desire of all the nations, And I have filled this house [with] glory,” said YHWH of Hosts.
8 ‘Da zinariya da azurfa duka nawa ne,’ in ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki.

10 A ranar ashirin da huɗu ga watan tara, a shekara ta biyu ta mulkin Dariyus, maganar Ubangiji ta zo wa annabi Haggai cewa,
On the twenty-fourth of the ninth [month], in the second year of Darius, a word of YHWH has been by the hand of Haggai the prophet, saying,
11 “Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, ‘Ku tambayi firist abin da doka ta ce.
Thus said YHWH of Hosts: “Now ask the priests of 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.”
Behold, [when] one carries holy flesh in the skirt of his garment, and he has come with his skirt against the bread, or against the stew, or against the wine, or against the oil, or against any food—is it holy?” And the priests answer and say, “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.”
And Haggai says, “If the unclean of body comes against any of these, is it unclean?” And the priests answer and say, “It is 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.
And Haggai answers and says, “So [is] this people, and so [is] this nation before Me,” a declaration of YHWH, “and so [is] every work of their hands, and that which they bring near there—it 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, please lay [it] to your heart, From this day and onward, Before the laying of stone to stone in the temple of YHWH.
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.
From that time [one] has come to a heap of twenty, And it has been ten, He has come to the wine vat to draw out fifty measures, And it has been 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 have struck you with blasting, And with mildew, and with hail—All the work of your hands, And there is none of you with Me,” A declaration of YHWH.
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.
“Now set [it] to your heart, from this day and onward, from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth [month], even from the day that the temple of YHWH has been founded, set [it] to your heart.
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? And until now the vine and the fig, And the pomegranate, and the olive-tree, Have not borne—from this day I bless.”
20 Maganar Ubangiji ta zo wa annabi Haggai sau na biyu a rana ta ashirin da huɗu ga wata cewa,
And there is a word of YHWH a second time to Haggai, on the twenty-fourth 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 am shaking 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 have overturned the throne of kingdoms, And I have destroyed the strength of kingdoms of the nations, And overturned chariot and its charioteers, And horses and their riders have come down, Each 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.”
