ハガイ書 1
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, the LORD’s word came by Haggai the prophet, to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, 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
“This is what the LORD of Armies says: These people say, ‘The time hasn’t yet come, the time for the LORD’s house to 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 the LORD’s word came 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 a time for you yourselves to dwell in your panelled houses, while this house lies 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 this is what the LORD of Armies says: ‘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
You have sown much, and bring in little. You eat, but you don’t have enough. You drink, but you aren’t filled with drink. You clothe yourselves, but no one is warm; and he who earns wages earns wages to put them into a bag with holes in it.’
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
“This is what the LORD of Armies says: ‘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, bring wood, and build the house. I will take pleasure in it, and I will be glorified,” says the LORD.
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
“You looked for much, and, behold, it came to little; and when you brought it home, I blew it away. Why?” says the LORD of Armies, “Because of my house that lies waste, while each of you is busy with 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 for your sake the heavens withhold the dew, and the earth withholds its 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
I called for a drought on the land, on the mountains, on the grain, on the new wine, on the oil, on that which the ground produces, on men, on livestock, and on 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 Jehozadak, the high priest, with all the remnant of the people, obeyed the LORD their God’s voice, and the words of Haggai the prophet, as the LORD their God had sent him; and the people feared the LORD.
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 Haggai, the LORD’s messenger, spoke the LORD’s message to the people, saying, “I am with you,” says the LORD.
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
The LORD stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people; and they came and worked on the house of the LORD 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 twenty-fourth day of the month, in the sixth month, in the second year of Darius the king.
