1 nʼụbọchị nke iri abụọ na otu, nʼọnwa nke asaa, okwu Onyenwe anyị si nʼọnụ onye amụma Hegai bịakwa na-asị:
Ngenyanga yesikhombisa, ngolwamatshumi amabili lanye lwenyanga, kwafika ilizwi leNkosi ngesandla sikaHagayi umprofethi, lisithi:
2 “Gwa Zerubabel nwa Shealtiel, onye na-achị Juda, na Joshua nwa Jehozadak, onyeisi nchụaja, na ndị Izrel ahụ fọdụrụ nʼala ahụ sị:
Khuluma khathesi kuZerubhabheli indodana kaSheyalithiyeli, umbusi wakoJuda, lakuJoshuwa indodana kaJehozadaki, umpristi omkhulu, lakunsali yabantu, usithi:
3 ‘Onye nʼime unu nwere ike icheta otu ụlọnsọ ukwu nke mbụ si dị ebube? Ọ dị aṅaa nʼanya unu ugbu a? Ọ bụ na ọ dịghị unu ka ihe efu ugbu a.
Ngubani oseleyo phakathi kwenu owabona lindlu enkazimulweni yayo yakuqala? Liyibona njani khathesi? Kayinjengento engekho yini emehlweni enu nxa ilinganiswa layo?
4 Ma ugbu a nwee obi ike Zerubabel,’ ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru. ‘Nwekwaa obi ike gị Joshua onyeisi nchụaja, nwa Jehozadak. Nwekwaanụ obi ike unu ndị niile bi nʼala a.’ Ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru. ‘Rụọnụ ọrụ nʼihi na anọnyeere m unu,’ ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile na-ekwu.
Kanti khathesi qina, Zerubhabheli, itsho iNkosi; uqine, Joshuwa, ndodana kaJehozadaki, mpristi omkhulu; liqine, lani lonke bantu belizwe, itsho iNkosi, lisebenze: ngoba ngilani, itsho iNkosi yamabandla,
5 ‘Nke a bụ ihe merenụ mgbe mụ na unu gbara ndụ nʼoge ahụ unu si nʼIjipt pụta. Mmụọ m na-anọgidekwa nʼetiti unu. Unu atụla egwu.’
njengokwelizwi engavumelana ngalo lani ekuphumeni kwenu eGibhithe, ngokunjalo umoya wami uhlala phakathi kwenu; lingesabi.
6 “Nʼihi na ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwuru, ‘Ọ fọdụrụ otu ugbo, nwa oge nta gasịa, aga m ayọgharị eluigwe na ụwa, na osimiri na ala akọrọ.
Ngoba itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla: Kusekanye, kuyisikhatshana, ngizazamazamisa amazulu, lomhlaba, lolwandle, lomhlabathi owomileyo;
7 Aga m ayọgharịkwa mba niile; ihe mba niile na-achọsi ike ga-abịa. Aga m eme ka ụlọ a jupụta nʼebube,’ ọ bụ ihe Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwuru.
ngizamazamise izizwe zonke, lesiloyiso sezizwe zonke sizafika; ngigcwalise lindlu ngenkazimulo, itsho iNkosi yamabandla.
8 ‘Ọlaọcha niile na ọlaedo niile, bụ nke m.’ Ọ bụ ihe Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwupụtara.
Isiliva ngesami, legolide ngelami, itsho iNkosi yamabandla.
9 ‘Ebube nke ụlọ a ga-adị ukwuu karịa ebube nke mbụ,’ ọ bụ ihe Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwuru. ‘Ọ bụkwa nʼebe a ka m ga-enye ọganihu na udo,’ otu a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwubiri ya.”
Inkazimulo yalindlu yokucina izakuba nkulu kuleyokuqala, itsho iNkosi yamabandla; lakulindawo ngizanika ukuthula, itsho iNkosi yamabandla.
10 Nʼụbọchị nke iri abụọ na anọ, nʼọnwa itoolu, nke afọ abụọ, nke ọchịchị eze Daraiọs, okwu Onyenwe anyị bịakwutere onye amụma, bụ Hegai.
Ngolwamatshumi amabili lane lwenyanga yesificamunwemunye, ngomnyaka wesibili kaDariyusi, lafika ilizwi leNkosi ngesandla sikaHagayi umprofethi, lisithi:
11 “Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwuru, ‘Jụọ ndị nchụaja ihe iwu na-ekwu.
Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla: Buza khathesi abapristi ngomthetho, usithi:
12 Ọ bụrụ na mmadụ etinye anụ e doro nsọ nʼakpa uwe ya, ọ bụrụkwa na uwe ahụ anụ nsọ ahụ dị nʼime ya emetụ achịcha, maọbụ ofe, maọbụ nri ọzọ dị iche, mmetụ uwe ahụ metụrụ ha ọ ga-eme ka ha dịrị nsọ?’” Ndị nchụaja zara sị: “Mba!”
Uba umuntu ethwala inyama engcwele emphethweni wesembatho sakhe, athinte isinkwa ngomphetho wakhe, kumbe ukudla okuphekiweyo, kumbe iwayini, kumbe amafutha, kumbe loba yikuphi ukudla, kuzakuba ngcwele yini? Abapristi basebephendula bathi: Hatshi.
13 Mgbe ahụ Hegai kwukwara, “Ọ bụrụ na mmadụ emerụọ onwe ya site nʼimetụ onye nwụrụ anwụ aka, mesịa metụ otu nʼime ihe ndị a aka, ọ ga-abụ ihe rụrụ arụ?” Ndị nchụaja zara sị, “E, ọ ga-abụ ihe rụrụ arụ.”
Wasesithi uHagayi: Uba ongcoliswe yisidumbu ethinta loba yiziphi zalezi, kuzangcola yini? Abapristi basebephendula bathi: Kuzangcola.
14 Mgbe ahụ Hegai kwuru sị, “‘Otu a ka mba a na ndị bi nʼime ya dị nʼihu m. Ihe ọbụla aka ha rụpụtara na onyinye ọbụla ha nyere bụ ihe rụrụ arụ.’ Ọ bụ ihe Onyenwe anyị kwuru.
Khona uHagayi waphendula wathi: Banjalo lababantu, futhi sinjalo lesisizwe phambi kwami, itsho iNkosi, futhi unjalo wonke umsebenzi wezandla zabo, lalokho abakunikelayo lapho kungcolile.
15 “‘Ma ugbu a, chezienụ echiche banyere ihe ndị ga-emenụ site taa gaa nʼihu. Tuleenụ otu ihe si dị tupu adọnye otu nkume nʼelu ibe ya nʼụlọnsọ ukwu nke Onyenwe anyị.
Khathesi-ke, ake libeke inhliziyo yenu kukho, kusukela kulolusuku kusiya phambili, kungakabekwa ilitshe phezu kwelitshe ethempelini leNkosi;
16 Kedụ ọnọdụ unu? Mgbe mmadụ bịara nʼebe o debere ọtụtụ iri efere ọka abụọ, ihe ọ na-ahụ bụ naanị ọtụtụ efere ọka iri. Ọ bụrụkwa na ọ bịa nʼebe ịnara mmanya ka o were iri ite mmanya ise, ọ bụ naanị iri ite mmanya abụọ ka ọ ga-enweta.
kusukela lapho umuntu efika enqwabeni yezilinganiso ezingamatshumi amabili, kwakuletshumi kuphela; esiya esikhamelweni sewayini ukukha imbiza ezingamatshumi amahlanu esikhamelweni, kwakulamatshumi amabili kuphela.
17 Eji m ọrịa na-eripịa ihe ubi, na ọmụma ebu, na mkpụrụ mmiri igwe bibie ọrụ aka unu niile; ma unu alọghachikwuteghị m,’ ọ bụ ihe Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara.
Ngalitshaya ngokuhanguka langengumane langesiqhotho, wonke umsebenzi wezandla zenu; kanti kaliphendukelanga kimi, itsho iNkosi.
18 ‘Ma site nʼụbọchị taa gaa nʼihu, site nʼụbọchị taa bụ iri ụbọchị anọ nke ọnwa itoolu, chenụ echiche banyere ụbọchị a bụ ụbọchị a tọrọ ntọala ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị. Chezienụ echiche banyere ya.
Ake libeke inhliziyo yenu kukho kusukela kulolusuku kusiya phambili, kusukela osukwini lwamatshumi amabili lane lwenyanga yesificamunwemunye, ngitsho kusukela osukwini isisekelo sethempeli leNkosi sibekwa, libeke inhliziyo yenu kukho.
19 Ọ ka nwere mkpụrụ ọghịgha unu nwere nʼọba unu? Ọzọkwa, osisi vaịnị, osisi fiig, osisi pomegranet na osisi oliv amịghị mkpụrụ, ruo ugbu a. “‘Ma site nʼụbọchị taa gaa nʼihu aga m agọzi unu.’”
Inhlanyelo isesesiphaleni yini? Yebo, ivini, lomkhiwa, lepomegranati, lesihlahla somhlwathi kakukatheli. Kusukela kulolusuku ngizalibusisa.
20 Okwu Onyenwe anyị bịakwutere Hegai nke ugboro abụọ, nʼụbọchị nke iri abụọ na anọ nke ọnwa ahụ, sị,
Ilizwi leNkosi lafika ngokwesibili kuHagayi ngolwamatshumi amabili lane lwenyanga, lisithi:
21 “Gwa Zerubabel, onye na-achị Juda sị ana m aga ịyọgharị eluigwe na ụwa.
Khuluma kuZerubhabheli, umbusi wakoJuda, usithi: Ngizazamazamisa amazulu lomhlaba.
22 Aga m akwatu ocheeze alaeze dị iche iche, ana m agakwa imebi ike alaeze nke mba dị iche iche. Aga m akwatu ụgbọ ịnyịnya nʼala na ndị na-anya ha; ịnyịnya na ndị na-agba ha ga-adakwa. Onye ọbụla ga-adakwa site na mma agha nke onye otu ya.
Ngigenqule isihlalo sobukhosi semibuso, ngichithe amandla emibuso yezizwe, ngigenqule inqola labagadi bayo; lamabhiza labagadi bawo bazakwehla, ngulowo ngenkemba yomfowabo.
23 “‘Nʼụbọchị ahụ,’ ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile na-ekwu, ‘Aga m ewere gị bụ onyeozi m Zerubabel nwa Shealtiel,’ ọ bụ ihe Onyenwe anyị kwuru, ‘mee gị ka ị dị ka mgbaaka akara m, nʼihi na ahọrọla m gị,’ Ọ bụ Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile na-ekwu.”
Ngalolosuku, itsho iNkosi yamabandla, ngizakuthatha, wena Zerubhabheli, ndodana kaSheyalithiyeli, nceku yami, itsho iNkosi, ngikwenze ube njengendandatho elophawu; ngoba ngikukhethile, itsho iNkosi yamabandla.
