1 ダリヨス王の二年六月其月の一日にヱホバの言預言者ハガイによりてシヤルテルの子ユダの方伯ゼルバベルおよびヨザダクの子 祭司の長ヨシユアに臨めりいはく
In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, in the first day of the month, came the word of Yhwh by Haggai the prophet unto Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, saying,
2 萬軍のヱホバかくいひたまふ是民はヱホバの殿を建べき時期未だ來らずといへり
Thus speaketh Yhwh of Armies, saying, This people say, The time is not come, the time that Yhwh's house should be built.
3 ヱホバの言また預言者ハガイによりて臨めり曰く
Then came the word of Yhwh by Haggai the prophet, saying,
4 此殿かく毀壞をれば汝等板をもてはれる家に居るべき時ならんや
Is it time for you, O ye, to dwell in your cieled houses, and this house lie waste?
5 されば今萬軍のヱホバかく曰たまふ 汝等おのれの行爲を省察べし
Now therefore thus saith Yhwh of Armies; Consider your ways.
6 汝らは多く播ども収入るところは少く食へども飽ことを得ず 飮ども滿足ことを得ず 衣れども暖きことを得ず 又工價を得るものは之を破れたる袋に入る
Ye have sown much, and bring in little; ye eat, but ye have not enough; ye drink, but ye are not filled with drink; ye clothe you, but there is none warm; and he that earneth wages earneth wages to put it into a bag with holes.
7 萬軍のヱホバまた曰たまふ 汝等おのれの行爲を省察べし
Thus saith Yhwh of Armies; Consider your ways.
8 山に上り木を携へ來て殿を建てよ さすれば我これを悦び又榮光を受ん ヱホバこれを言ふ
Go up to the mountain, and bring wood, and build the house; and I will take pleasure in it, and I will be glorified, saith Yhwh.
9 なんぢら多く得んと望みたりしに反て少かりき 又汝等これを家に携へ歸りしとき我これを吹はらへり 萬軍のヱホバいひたまふ 是何故ぞや 是は我が殿破壞をるに汝等おのおの己の室に走り至ればなり
Ye looked for much, and, lo, it came to little; and when ye brought it home, I did blow upon it. Why? saith Yhwh of Armies. Because of mine house that is waste, and ye run every man unto his own house.
10 この故になんぢらの上の天は雨露を止め地はその產物を止めたり
Therefore the heaven over you is stayed from dew, and the earth is stayed from her fruit.
11 且われ地にも山にも穀物にも新酒にも油にも地の生ずる物にも人にも家畜にも手のもろもろの工にもすべて毀壞を召きかうむらしめたり
And I called for a drought upon the land, and upon the mountains, and upon the grain, and upon the new wine, and upon the oil, and upon that which the ground bringeth forth, and upon men, and upon cattle, and upon all the labour of the hands.
12 シヤルテルの子ゼルバベルとヨザダクの子祭司の長ヨシユアおよびその殘れるすべての民ともに其神ヱホバの聲と預言者ハガイの言に聽したがへり 是は其神ヱホバかれを遣したまひしに因る 民みなヱホバの前に敬畏たり
Then Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, with all the remnant of the people, obeyed the voice of Yhwh their God, and the words of Haggai the prophet, as Yhwh their God had sent him, and the people did fear before Yhwh.
13 時にヱホバの使者ハガイ、ヱホバの命により民に告て曰けるは我なんぢらと偕に在りとヱホバ曰たまふと
Then spake Haggai Yhwh's messenger in Yhwh's message unto the people, saying, I am with you, saith Yhwh.
14 ヱホバ、シヤルテルの子ユダの方伯ゼルバベルの心とヨザダクの子 祭司の長ヨシユアの心およびその殘れるすべての民の心をふりおこしたまひければ彼等來りて其神萬軍のヱホバの殿にて工作を爲り
And Yhwh stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people; and they came and did work in the house of Yhwh of Armies, their God,
15 これダリヨス王の二年六月二十四日なりき
In the four and twentieth day of the sixth month, in the second year of Darius the king.
