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 king Darius, in the sixth month, on the first day of the month, came the word of the Lord through means of Haggai the prophet unto Zerubbabel the son of Shealthiel, the 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
Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, saying, This people have said, The time is not 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
And the word of the Lord came by means of 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 ceiled houses, while this house lieth in ruins?
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 hath said the Lord of hosts, Direct your heart unto 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 it doth not satisfy hunger; ye drink, but it doth not appease thirst; ye clothe yourselves, but no one is warm; and he that earneth something earneth it for 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 hath said the Lord of hosts, Direct your heart to 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: that I may take pleasure in it, and be glorified, saith 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
[Till now] ye looked for much, and lo, it came to be little; and when ye brought it home, I blew upon it. For what cause? saith the Lord of hosts. Because of my house that lieth in ruins, while 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 do the heavens for your sake withhold the dew, and the earth withholdeth her products.
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 over the land, and over the mountains, and over the corn, and over the new wine, and over the oil, and over what the ground bringeth forth, and over men, and over cattle, and over all the labor 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 hearkened Zerubbabel the son of Shealthiel, and Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, with all the remnant of the people, unto the voice of the Lord their God, and to the words of Haggai the prophet, as the Lord their God had sent him, and the people were afraid of 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 said Haggai the messenger of the Lord by the Lord's message unto the people saying, I am with you, saith 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
And the Lord stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel the son of Shealthiel, the 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 did work on the house of the Lord of hosts, their God.
15 これダリヨス王の二年六月二十四日なりき
On the four and twentieth day of the sixth month, in the second year of king Darius.
