< Hagai 2 >

1 I KA la iwakaluakumamakahi o ka malama ahiku, hiki mai la ka olelo a Iehova ma o Hagai la ke kaula, i ka i ana mai,
In the seventh month, in the one and twentieth day of the month, came the word of the LORD by Haggai the prophet, saying:
2 E olelo aku oe ia Zerubabela ke keiki a Saletiela, ke kiaaina o Iuda, a ia Iosua ke keiki a Iosedeka, ke kahuna nui, a i ke koena o kanaka, i ka i ana aku,
'Speak now to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and to the remnant of the people, saying:
3 Owai o oukou e koe, nana i ike i kela luakini me kona nani mua? pehea oukou i ike ai i keia, ano, aole anei ia ma ko oukou maka me he mea ole la?
Who is left among you that saw this house in its former glory? and how do ye see it now? is not such a one as nothing in your eyes?
4 Aka, i nui hoi ka ikaika ou, e Zerubabela, wahi a Iehova; i nui hoi ka ikaika ou, e Iosua, e ke keiki a Iosedeka, ke kahuna nui; i nui hoi ka ikaika o oukou, e na kanaka a pau o ka aina nei, a e hana hoi, wahi a Iehova; no ka mea, me oukou pu hoi au, wahi a Iehova o na kaua.
Yet now be strong, O Zerubbabel, saith the LORD; and be strong, O Joshua, son of Jehozadak, 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 E like me ka berita a'u i hoopaa aku ai me oukou, ia oukou i puka ai mai Aigupita mai, pela hoi e noho ai kuu Uhane iwaena o oukou; mai makau oukou.
The word that I covenanted with you when ye came out of Egypt have I established, and My spirit abideth among you; fear ye not.
6 No ka mea, penei ka i ana mai a Iehova, ke Akua o na kaua; I kekahi manawa aku, he liuliu iki ia, a e hoonaue au i ka lani a me ka honua, i ke kai a me ka aina maloo;
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 A e hoonaue hoi au i na lahuikanaka a pau, a e hele mai auanei ka mea i makemakeia e na lahuikanaka a pau, a e hoopiha auanei au i keia hale i ka nani, wahi a Iehova o na kaua.
and I will shake all nations, and the choicest things of all nations shall come, and I will fill this house with glory, saith the LORD of hosts.
8 No'u no ke kala, no'u hoi ke gula, wahi a Iehova o na kaua.
Mine is the silver, and Mine the gold, saith the LORD of hosts.
9 E oi auanei ka nani o keia hale hope imua o ko ka mua, wahi a Iehova o na kaua; a ma keia wahi hoi e haawi aku no wau i ka maluhia, wahi a Iehova o na kaua.
The glory of this latter house shall be greater than that of the former, saith the LORD of hosts; and in this place will I give peace, saith the LORD of hosts.'
10 I ka la iwakaluakumamaha o ka iwa o ka malama, i ka lua o ka makahiki o Dariu, hiki mai la ka olelo a Iehova ma o Hagai la ke kaula, i ka i ana mai,
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 Penei ka Iehova o na kaua e olelo mai nei, E ninau aku oe i na kahuna no ke kanawai, penei,
'Thus saith the LORD of hosts: Ask now the priests for instruction, saying:
12 Ina e lawelawe kekahi i ka io laa ma ke kihi o kona aahu, a hoopa aku kona kihi i ka berena, i ka io hoolapalapa paha, a i ka waina, a i ka aila paha, a i kekahi mea ai e ae, e laa no anei ia? Hoole mai la na kahuna, i mai la, Aole.
If one bear hallowed flesh in the skirt of his garment, and with his skirt do touch bread, or pottage, or wine, or oil, or any food, shall it be holy?' And the priests answered and said: 'No.'
13 Alaila i aku la o Hagai, Ina i haumia kekahi i ke kupapau, a hoopa aku ia i kekahi o keia mau mea, e haumia anei ia mea? Pane mai la na kahuna, i mai la, E haumia no.
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 Olelo aku la o Hagai, i aku la, Pela no keia poe kanaka, a pela keia lahuikanaka imua o'u, wahi a Iehova: a pela hoi ka hana a pau a ko lakou lima; a o ka mea a lakou e mohai mai ai ilaila, he haumia ia.
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 Nolaila hoi, e noonoo pono oukou mai keia la e noho nei a hiki i ka wa mamua, i ka wa i kau ole ia'i ka pohaku maluna o kekahi pohaku ma ka luakini o Iehova.
And now, I pray you, consider from this day and forward — before a stone was laid upon a stone in the temple of the LORD,
16 Mai ia manawa, ina hele aku kekahi i ka puu hua ai he iwakalua na ana ona, a loaa he umi; a i hele aku hoi kekahi i kahi kaomi waina e hookahe ai i na ana he kanalima mailoko mai o ke kaomi waina, a loaa iho he iwakalua wale no.
through all that time, when one came to a heap of twenty measures, there were but ten; when one came to the winevat to draw out fifty press-measures, there were but twenty;
17 Hahau aku la au ia oukou i ka maloo a me ka popo, a me ka huahekili ma na hana a pau a ko oukou mau lima; aka, aole o oukou i huli mai i o'u nei, wahi a Iehova.
I smote you with blasting and with mildew and with hail in all the work of your hands; yet ye turned not to Me, saith the LORD —
18 E noonoo oukou mai keia la e noho nei a mamua aku, mai ka la iwakaluakumamaha o ka malama aiwa, a hiki i kela la i hookumuia'i ka luakini o Iehova; e noonoo oukou.
consider, I pray you, from this day and forward, 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 Ua koe anei ka hua ai iloko ka halepapaa? Eia hoi, aole ka waina, a me ka fiku, a me ka pomegerane, a me ka laau oliva i hua mai i ka hua: mai keia la aku nae, e hoomaikai aku no wau ia oukou.
is the seed yet in the barn? yea, 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 Hiki hou mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia Hagai i ka la iwakaluakumamaha o ua malama la, i ka i ana mai,
And the word of the LORD came the second time unto Haggai in the four and twentieth day of the month, saying:
21 E i aku oe ia Zerubabela ke kiaaina o Iuda, penei, E hoonaue ana au i ka lani a me ka honua;
'Speak to Zerubbabel, governor of Judah, saying: I will shake the heavens and the earth;
22 A e hookahuli au i ka nohoalii o na aupuni, a e hoolilo au i ka ikaika o na aupuni kanaka e i mea ole; e hookahuli hoi au i na halekaa a me ka poe holo maloko; a e haule iho auanei na lio a me na hoohololio, o kela mea keia mea o lakou, i ka pahikaua a kona hoahanau.
and I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms, and I will destroy the strength of the kingdoms of the nations; 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 Ia la hoi, wahi a Iehova o na kaua, e lawe au ia oe, e Zerubabela ke keiki a Saletiela, o ka'u kauwa, wahi a Iehova, a e hoolike au ia oe me ke komolima hoopili wepa; no ka mea, ua koho au ia oe, wahi a Iehova o na kaua.
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.'
