Marakai 1

1 Ama'i nanekea Ra Anumzamo'a kasnampa ne' Malakaiampi huvazino Israeli vahe zamasmi'nea naneke,

The burden of the word of the Lord to Israel by the hand of Malachi.

2 Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Nagra navesi neramantoe. Hianagi tamagra amanage hutma nantahinegaze, Kagra inankna kazigati tavesia nerantane? Anagema hazageno'a, Ra Anumzamo'a anage hu'ne, Jekopu'a Iso negna mani'neanagi, nagra Jekopuna navesi ante'noe. (Rom 9:13)

I have loved you, says the Lord, and you have said, “In what way have you loved us?” Was not Esau brother to Jacob, says the Lord? And have I not loved Jacob,

3 Hianagi Isona navresra hunente'na, agona kokama erisantima hare'nea kokana eri hagage hugeno, hagage koka me'negeno, ana kokampina afi kraramimo avite'ne.

but held hatred for Esau? And I have set his mountains in solitude, and his inheritance with the serpents of the desert.

4 Idomu vahe'mo'za amanage hugahaze, tazeri haviza hazageta havizantfa hu'nonanagi, ete vuta nonkumatia omeri so'e huta kigahune. Hianagi Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a huno, nonkumara tro hu'za manigahazanagi, Nagra ana nonkumazmia eri tagna taganu vazitrenugeno, ana mopagura kefo avu'avazamo avite'nea mope hu'za nehu'za, anampima nemaniza vahekura, Ra Anumzamo arimpa ahezmante vava nehia vahere hu'za hugahaze.

But if Idumea will say, “We have been destroyed, but when we return, we will build up what has been destroyed,” thus says the Lord of hosts: They will build up, and I will destroy. And they will be called “The limits of impiety,” and, “The people with whom the Lord has been angry, even to eternity.”

5 Tamagra'a tamavufinti negeta amanage huta hugahaze, Ra Anumzamofo hihamu'amo'a rankrerfa hu'neankino, Israeli vahe mopa atupa agatereno vuno eno hu'ne huta hugahaze.

And your eyes will see. And you will say, “May the Lord be magnified beyond the limits of Israel.”

6 Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a pristi vahetaminkura amanage hie, ne'mofavremo'a nefana antahimino kesga nehuno ke'a antahinemigeno, eri'za vahe'mo'a kva'amofona kesga huno ke'a antahinemie. Hanki Nagrikura huta nafatimo'e nehuta, kvatimo'e nehaze. Hianagi nahigeta nagesga nehuta keni'a nontahize? huno Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne. Hianagi tamagra huta, inankna huta Kagri kagia eri haviza nehune? huta nehaze.

The son honors the father, and the servant his master. If, therefore, I am Father, where is my honor? And if I am Master, where is my fear? says the Lord of hosts to you, O priests, who despise my name. And you have said, “In what way, have we despised your name?”

7 Tamagra agru osu ne'za erita kre sramana vu itanirera Kresramana nevaze. Hianagi tamagra amanage nehaze, inankna huta kagri kagia eri pehana nehune? huta nantahinegaze. Ra Anumzamofo ita kehenkami netrone huta nehuta, tamagra ana ita keamane zankna nehaze.

You offer polluted bread upon my altar, and you say, “In what way, have we polluted you?” In that you say, “The table of the Lord has been despised.”

8 Avuma asuhu afu'ma avreta nagrite'ma ofama eme kre sramana vanazana, e'i knare avu'avaza hugahazafi? Agia azamo'ma haviza huge, kri erige'ma hu'nesia afu'ma kre sramanama vanazana, e'i knare avu'vaza hugahazafi? E'ina'ma hu'nenia afura avrenka gavana nera ome aminenka ko, agra musena hugantegahifi? huno Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.

If you offer the blind for sacrifice, is this not evil? And if you offer the lame and the sick, is this not evil? Offer it to your leader, if he will be pleased with it, or if he will accept your face, says the Lord of hosts.

9 Hagi menina Anumzamofo asunku zankura pristi vahe'mota antahigeho. E'ina ofama tamagra tamazanuti'ma hanaza zana Anumzamo'a negeno musena hugahifi? huno Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.

And now, beseech the face of God, so that he may have mercy on you (for by your hand has this been done) if, in any way, he might accept your faces, says the Lord of hosts.

10 Hagi mago'mo'ma mono no kafama erigisigeta knare osu ofama Kresramanama nevaza zama eme Kresramanama ovanazana, e'i knare hugahie. Nagra tamagrikura musena hunoramantoanki'na, ofama hanazana musena hu'na antahi oramigahue, huno Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.

Who is there among you that would close the doors and enflame my altar without pay? I have no favor in you, says the Lord of hosts. And I will not accept a gift from your hand.

11 Zage hanati kazigati evuno zage fre kazigama mani'naza vahepina, nagri nagimo'a marerigahie. Hagi nagri nagire maka kaziga mananentake'za insensine agru ofanena hugahaze. Na'ankure nagri nagimo'a kokankoka vahetera marerigahie, huno Ra Anumzana Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Anumzamo'a hu'ne.

For, from the rising of the sun even to its setting, my name is great among the Gentiles, and in every place, a clean oblation is being sacrificed and offered to my name. For my name is great among the Gentiles, says the Lord of hosts.

12 Hianagi tamagra Nagri Kresramana vu ita keamne zankna nehuta, knare osu zana erita Kresramana vu itarera eme ofa nehuta kresramna vu itani'a eri pehana hu'naze.

And you have polluted it, in that you say, “The table of the Lord has been contaminated; and that which is placed upon it is contemptible, compared with the fire that devours it.”

13 Tamagra amanage nehaze, Ra Anumzama amage'ma ante zamo'a tusi amuho hu'ne huta nehuta, kasegeni'ama amage'ma ante'zankura tamagona remaku hu nagamunetraze, huno Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne. Musufasege, agaza haviza huge, kri erige'ma hu'nenia afu'ma ofama erita eme Nagrite'ma nehazana Nagra ana ofatamirera musena nehufi? huno Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.

And you have said, “Behold our labor,” and you have exhaled it away, says the Lord of hosts. And you brought in by plunder the lame, and the sick, and brought it in as a gift. How can I receive this from your hand, says the Lord?

14 Hagi iza'o knare ve sipisipi afu ofa hugahue huno'ma huteno, agaza haviza huge kri erige'ma hu'nenia sipisipi afu'ma eme ofama Ra Anumzamofonte'ma hanimo'a, kazusifi manigahie. Na'ankure Nagra ra kini ne' manugeno kokankoka vahe'mo'za Nagri nagigura koro nehaza ne' mani'noe, huno Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.

Cursed is the deceitful, who holds in his flock a male, and, when making a vow, offers in sacrifice that which is feeble to the Lord. For I am a great King, says the Lord of hosts, and my name is dreadful among the Gentiles.
