Hagai 1
1 Pesia mopafi kini ne' Dariusi'ma kinima manino egeno nampa 2ma hia kafufina, 6si ikamofona ese knazupa, ama nanekea Ra Anumzamo'a kasnampa ne' Hagaina nemino, Juda mopare ugagota hu'nea Gavana ne', Sieltieli nemofo Zerubabeline, ugagota Pristi ne' Jehozadaki nemofo Josuakizani zanasamio huno asami'nea naneke.
[I am], Haggai, a prophet. I received a message from Yahweh on August 29th, during the second year that Darius was the king [of Persia]. I told this message to Shealtiel’s son Zerubbabel, the governor of Judah, and to Jehozadak’s son Jeshua, the Supreme Priest.
2 Monafi sondia vahete'ma ugagotama hu'nea Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hu'ne. Vahe'mo'za amanage nehaze, Ra Anumzamofo mono noma ete eri kasefa'ma huno ki kna zahufa ome'ne hu'za nehaze.
Yahweh, the Commander of the armies of heaven, told [me] that the people were saying that it was not yet time for them to rebuild Yahweh’s temple.
3 Anagema hazazanku Ra Anumzamo'a kasnampa ne' Hagai agipi huvazino amanage hu'ne,
Then Yahweh gave me this message [to tell to the people of Jerusalem]:
4 Tamagra na'a higeta Nagri mono nona atrazageno havizana huno me'negeta, marerisa nontamimpina tamagra nemanize?
“It is not right [RHQ] for you to be living in luxurious houses while my temple is only ruins!
5 E'ina hu'negu Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a huno, tamagrama nehaza avu'ava zantamia refkohu so'e huta keho.
[I, ] Yahweh, the Commander of the armies of heaven, say this: Think about what is happening to you.
6 Tamagra rama'a hoza nentazanagi, nezama'a osi'a e'nerize. Tamagra ne'zana nenazanagi, tamamura nosie. Tamagra tina nenazanagi, mago'ene tinkura tamave'nesie. Tamagra kukena nehazanagi, anazamo'a tamavufga azeri amuhoa nosie. Tamagra zago eri'zana erita kutamifina erinerizanagi, hagro hu'nea kutamifi erinerize.
You have planted a lot [of seeds], but you are not getting many [crops] to harvest. You eat [food], but you never get enough. You drink [wine], but you are still thirsty. You wear clothes, but you do not stay warm. You earn money, [but things are very expensive], with the result that [it is as though] [MET] [your money disappears because] you are putting it in purses/pockets that have [big] holes in them.”
7 Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hu'ne. Tamagrama nehaza avu'ava zana refkohu so'e huta keho.
[So] this is what Yahweh, the Commander of the armies of heaven, says: “Think about what is happening to you.
8 Tamagra agonaramimpi marerita zafa ome antagita eta Nagri mono nona eme kiho. Ana'ma hanage'na Nagra anazankura muse nehanuge'za, anampina Nagri nagia husga hugahaze huno Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.
[Then] go up into the hills, [cut down trees, ] and bring timber [down here], and rebuild my temple. When you do that, I will be pleased, and I will be honored.
9 Hozafintira tamagra knare huta ne'zana hamaregahune huta amuhara hu'nazanagi, ne'zamo'a hunte so'e nosie. Tamagra ana ne'zama erita nontamire'ma azana, Nagra ana ne'zantamina huhu hunetroe. Na'a hige'na anara nehue? Na'ankure Nagri mono nomo'a evuramino haviza huno me'negeta, atreta tamagra'ama knare'nare nontamima kisaza zante maragu'zama neti'za zante, anara nohue huno Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.
You expected [to harvest] plenty [of crops], but there were few [crops to harvest]. And when you brought the crops home, I caused them to spoil [IDM] quickly. The reason [that happened is that] my temple is a ruins, while each of you are busy building your own [beautiful] houses.
10 E'inahu tamavu tamava'ma nehaza zanku huno, hampompintira komo'a eoramigeno, hozafina ne'zamo'a hunte so'e nosie.
It is because of what you [are doing] that rain does not fall from the sky, and [as a result] there are no crops.
11 Nagra kora atresugeno mopafina ruontegahiankino, agonaramimo'ene mopamo'enena hagege nehanigeno, witimo'ene waini ragamo'ene olivi zafa ragamo'enena hagege nehanigeno, maka ama mopafima hageno mareneria zantamimo'enena hagege hugahie. Ana'ma hanigeno'a vahemo'ene afutamimo'zanena ne'zama ne'zankura hakegahaze. Anazanke huno tamagrama maraguzamatita eritruma hu'naza zantamimo'a maka haviza hugahie.
I have caused a (drought/severe lack of rain) on the hills and on your fields. The result has been that your grain [has withered], and your grapevines [MTY] and olive trees [MTY] and all your [other] crops have dried up. [Because of that, ] you and your cattle [do not have enough food], and the hard work that you have done will be for nothing.”
12 Anante Sieltieli nemofo Zerubabeli'ene, pristi ne' Jehozadaki nemofo Josua'ene, pristi vahe'mo'zane Anumzamofo vahe'ma ofri osi'ama mani'naza vahe'mo'zanena Ra Anumzana Anumzazamimofo naneke amage ante'naze. Ra Anumzana zamagri Anumzamo'ma kasnampa ne' Hagaima asamigeno, eme zamasamia kante ante'za zamagu'areti hu'za ana nanekea amage ante fatgo hu'naze. Ana nehu'za Ra Anumzamofonku koro hunente'za Agri agorga mani'naze.
Then Zerubbabel and Jeshua and all the others of God’s people who were still alive obeyed the message that Yahweh our God had said, and they heeded the message that I had given them, because [they knew that] Yahweh our God had sent/appointed me. And the people revered Yahweh.
13 Anante Ra Anumzamofo kato ne' Hagai'a amanage huno Ra Anumzamofo nanekea vahera zamasami'ne. Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Nagra tamagrane mani'noe huno huama hu'ne.
Then [I], Haggai, who was Yahweh’s messenger, gave this message from Yahweh to the people: “I, Yahweh, declare that I am with you.”
14 Hanki anante Juda mopare ugota hu'nea Gavana ne' Sieltieli nemofo Zerubabeline, ugota pristi ne' Jehozadaki nemofo Josuakiznia Ra Anumzamo'a antahintahi zanamino zanarimpa zanazeri onetino, Anumzamofo vahe'ma osi'a ofri'ma mani'zana vahe'enena anazanke hu'ne. Ana hige'za Monafi sondia vahete'ma ugagotama hu'nea Ra Anumzama Anumzazamimofo mono nona erigafa hu'za ki'naze.
[So] Yahweh motivated Zerubbabel and Jeshua and the other people to want to rebuild the temple of our God, the Commander of the armies of angels. They gathered together and started to work to rebuild it.
15 Ana eri'zama eri agafama hu'nazana, Dariusi'ma kinima manino egeno nampa 2ma hia kafufina 6si ika mofona 24ma hianknazupa eri agafa hu'naze.
[They started work] on September 21st, during the second year that Darius was the king.
