Hagai 1
1 I KA lua o ka makahiki o Dariu ke alii, i ke ono o ka malama, i ka la mua o ua malama la, hiki mai la ka olelo a Iehova ma o Hagai la, o ke kaula, ia Zerubabela ke keiki a Saletiela, ke kiaaina o Iuda, a ia Iosua ke keiki a Iosedeka, ke kahuna nui, i ka i ana ae,
In the second year of king Darius, in the sixth month, on the first day of the month, the word of the Lord came, by the hand of Haggai the prophet, to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Jesus the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, saying:
2 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua, penei, i mai la; Ke i mai nei keia poe kanaka, Aole i hiki mai ka manawa, ka manawa e kapili ai i ka hale o Iehova.
Thus says the Lord of hosts, saying: This people claims that the time has not yet arrived for building the house of the Lord.
3 Nolaila, hiki mai ai ka olelo a Iehova ma o Hagai la, o ke kaula, i ka i ana'e,
But the word of the Lord came by the hand of Haggai the prophet, saying:
4 E oukou nei, o ka manawa anei keia no oukou e noho ai iloko o ko oukou mau hale papa kedera, a e neoneo ai hoi keia hale?
Is it time for you to dwell in paneled houses, while this house is deserted?
5 Nolaila hoi, eia ka Iehova ke Akua o na kaua e olelo nei; E noonoo oukou i ko oukou mau aoao.
And now, thus says the Lord of hosts: Set your hearts upon your ways.
6 Ua lulu nui aku oukou, a he uuku ka mea a oukou i ohi ai; ua ai oukou, aole nae i maona; ua inu oukou, aole nae i kena ka makewai; ua aahu kapa oukou, aole no nae oukou i mehana; a o ka mea i hana e ukuia mai, ua hahaoia kana uku maloko o ke eke pukapuka.
You sowed much and have brought in little. You consumed and have not been satisfied. You drank and have not been inebriated. You covered yourselves and have not been warmed. And whoever gathered wages, has put them in a bag with holes.
7 Eia ka Iehova ke Akua o na kaua i olelo mai nei; e noonoo oukou i ko oukou mau aoao.
Thus says the Lord of hosts: Set your hearts upon your ways.
8 E pii aku i ke kuahiwi a e lawe mai i laau, a e hana i ka hale a e oluolu au ia, a e hoomaikaiia auanei hoi au, wahi a Iehova.
Ascend to the mountain, bring wood and build the house, and it shall be acceptable to me, and I shall be glorified, says the Lord.
9 Kuko aku la oukou i nui, aia hoi he uuku; lawe aku la oukou iloko o ka hale, a pupuhi aku la au ia. No ke aha? wahi a Iehova, ke Akua o na kaua. No kuu hale no i neoneo, a holo oukou kela mea keia mea i kona hale iho.
You have looked for more, and behold, it became less, and you brought it home, and I blew it away. What is the cause of this, says the Lord of hosts? It is because my house is desolate, yet you have hurried, each one to his own house.
10 Nolaila, ua paniia ka lani maluna o oukou, i haawi ole mai ai ia i ka hau, a ua pau ka hoohua mau ana o ka honua i kona hua.
Because of this, the heavens over you have been prohibited from giving dew, and the earth has been prohibited from giving her sprouts.
11 Ua kahea aku la au i manawa wi maluna o ka aina, a maluna o na mauna, a maluna o ka ai, a maluna o ka waina hou, a maluna o ka aila oliva, a maluna o na mea a pau a ka lepo e hua mai ai, a maluna o kanaka, maluna o na holoholona, a maluna o ka hana a pau a na lima.
And I called a drought over the land, and over the mountains, and over the wheat, and over the wine, and over the oil, and whatever the soil would bring forth, and over men, and over beasts of burden, and over all the labor of hands.
12 Alaila, hoolohe ae la o Zerubabela ke keiki a Saletiela, a o Iosua ke keiki a Iosedeka, ke kahuna nui, a me ke koena kanaka a pau, i ka leo o Iehova ko lakou Akua, a me ka olelo a Hagai ke haula, me ka Iehova o ko lakou Akua i hoouna mai ai ia ia, a makau ae la na kanaka ia Iehova.
And Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Jesus the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and all the remnant of the people heeded the voice of the Lord their God, and the words of Haggai the prophet, just as the Lord their God sent him to them. And the people were fearful before the face of the Lord.
13 Olelo aku la o Hagai o ka elele o Iehova, ma ka ke kauoha a Iehova i na kanaka, i ka i ana ae, Me oukou pu no wau, wahi a Iehova.
And Haggai, a messenger of the Lord among messengers of the Lord, spoke to the people, saying: the Lord says, “I am with you.”
14 A paipai mai la o Iehova i ka naau o Zerubabela ke keiki a Saletiela, ke kiaaina o Iuda, a me ka naau o Iosua ke keiki a Iosedeka, ke kahuna nui, a me ka naau o ke koena kanaka a pau; a hele aku la lakou a hana iho la i ka hale o Iehova o na kaua, o ko lakou Akua,
And the Lord stirred the spirit of Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Jesus the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and the spirit of the remainder of all the people. And they entered and performed work in the house of the Lord of hosts their God.
15 I ka la iwakaluakumamaha o ka malama eono, i ka lua o ka makahiki o ke alii o Dariu.
On the twenty-fourth day of the month, in the sixth month, in the second year of king Darius, they began.
