Marakai 2
1 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Pristi vahe'mota antahiho, ama'i tamagrama amage'ma antesaza kasege.
You priests, I will say something to warn you.
2 Hagi tamagra tamagu'areti huta nagi'a ahentesga hiho. Hagi ana'ma osana zana, Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a huno, asomu'ma eri'naza zantamina eri haviza hugahue. Tamage Nagra ko kazusi huramante'noe, na'ankure tamagra tamagu'aretira huta keni'a antahita novaririze.
The Commander of the armies of angels says [this]: “Pay attention [to what I am saying], and [then] decide [IDM] to honor me [MTY]. If you do not do that, I will curse you, and I will curse [the things that I have given to you to] bless you. And I have already cursed them, because you have not honored [IDM] me.
3 Tamagripinti'ma fore hu'naza mofavreramina kna zami'na zamazeri haviza nehu'na, tamagrama ofa Kresramana vunaku'ma eme ahegisaza ofa afumofo arifa eri'na tamavugosafina rehame hu'na freneramante'na, tamazeri matevanugeta afu arimpama hute'za arifa'ama eri'za ome netrazafi umanigahaze.
I will punish your descendants [MET], and [it will be as though] I will splatter on your faces [some of] the material inside the stomachs of the animals that are brought to be sacrificed, and you will be thrown away with the rest of that material.
4 E'ina hanugeta Nagriku ama kasegea atregeno e'ne huta keta antahita nehanageno, Livae nagate'ma huhagerafi huvempa kema hu'noa kemo'a meno vugahie, huno Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.
When that happens, you will know that I warned you like this, in order that my agreement with [you priests who are descendants of] Levi will continue [to be obeyed]. [That is what I, ] the Commander of the armies of angels, am saying [to you].
5 Livae vahe'enema huhagerafi huvempagema hu'noana, asimu'ma erino mani ke'ne, arimpa fruma huno mani ke ami'noe. Nagri'ma koro'ma hunanteno, nagoraga'ama mani huhagerafi huvempage amugeno agra Nagri nagorga koro hunanteno mani'ne.
My agreement with [your ancestor] Levi was because I wanted the priests to live prosperously and peacefully. And that is what I have done for them. I required that they greatly respect me and revere [DOU] me.
6 Agrira tamage nanekemo agipina me'negeno, mago havige nanekea osu'ne. Agra Nagri'ene arimpa fru zampine fatgo avu'ava zampine nevuno, kumi avu'ava zampintira rama'a vahe zamazeri rukrahe hu'ne.
They told the people that what I instructed them to do was right. And they did not tell [MTY] lies. They worked for me peacefully and loyally, and they helped many people to stop sinning.
7 Hagi pristi vahe'mo'za vahe'ma zamaza hanage'za Anumzamo'nama nage'za antahi'zama hanaza vahe mani'naze. Ana hu'negu vahe'mo'zama knare antahi'zama erinaku'ma hanu'za zamagrite vanage'za rempi huzamigahaze. Na'ankure pristi vahera Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamofo kema erino vuno eno'ma hu vahe mani'naze.
What priests say [MTY] should enable more people to know [about me], and people should go to them [MTY] to be taught [what I want them to know], because priests [should] be messengers from me, the Commander of the armies of angels.
8 Hianagi pristi vahe'mota Anumzamo'na kana atreta hazanegraze. Rama'a vahe tamagra antahintahia zamizage'za kumipina trakara hu'naze. Livae vahe'enema huhagerafi'noa huvempa kea ru hantagi'naze, huno Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.
But, you priests have stopped doing what I wanted you to do. What you have taught people has caused many [of them] to sin. You have rejected the agreement [that I made] with [the descendants of] Levi [long ago].
9 Tamagra Nagri kea amagera nonteta, veamokizmima Nagri kema rempima hunezamita mago'amofona masavenke hunezamita, mago'amokizmia ha'renezmantaze. Ana hu'negu Israeli vahe'mo'za tamefi huramigahaze.
Therefore I have caused all the people to despise you, and I have caused you to be humiliated, because you have not obeyed me. When you teach [people] my commands, you do not treat all [people] equally.”
10 Maka vahe'mota antahita ketama hanunana magoke Nerafa'a mani'ne. Ana hu'neankino Agrake'za Anumzana mani'neno, mika vahera tro hurante'ne. Hagi nahigeta hara ore are nehuta, Anumzamo'ma tafahe'inema huhagerafi huvempagema hu'neana ruha'nentagune?
[Now I will warn you about something else]. We all certainly [RHQ] have the same [heavenly] Father. We are certainly [RHQ] [all] created by the same God. So why are [RHQ] [some of] you disobeying/despising the agreement [that Yahweh made] with our ancestors, by not doing for each other what you said that you would do?
11 Juda vahe'mo'za zamentintia atre'za hazagrazageno, kasrino hi'mnama vu'nea avu'ava zana Israeli mopafine Jerusalemi kumapinena hu'naze. Hagi Juda venenemo'za kaza osu havi anumzante'ma mono'ma hunentaza a'neramina ara eri'za Ra Anumzamofo mono nona eri pehana hu'naze.
[You people of] Judah have been unfaithful [to Yahweh]. You have done detestable things in Jerusalem and in [other places] in Israel. You Israeli men have defiled the temple that Yahweh loves. [You have done that by] marrying women who worship idols.
12 Ra Anumzamo'a Israeli vahepinti'ma iza'o ana avu'ava'ma nehia vahe'ene, ana avu'ava'ma nehuno ofama erino Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamofonte'ma esia vahera ahe fanane hugahie. (Jen-Agafa 2:18-25)
I wish that Yahweh would expel from Israel every man who has done that, [even though] they [say that they are obeying] the Commander of the armies of angels by bringing offerings to him.
13 Hagi ana nehuta mago zama nehazana tamagra amana nehaze, Ra Anumzamofo Kresramana vu ita zavi krafage nehuta tamavunuteti repasupa negita, kragira neraze. Na'ankure ofama eme nehaza ofagura musena huno e'norie.
This is another thing that you do: You cover Yahweh’s altar with your tears. You wail because he no longer pays attention to your offerings; but he is not pleased with them.
14 Hianagi tamagra agenoka huta, nahigeno Anumzamo'a antahinoramie? hutama nehazana, na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'ma neramagegetama nehazavema manineta huvempa huta eri'naza a'enena mani fatgo huta nomanize.
You [cry out], saying, “Why does Yahweh not like our offerings?” The answer is that Yahweh heard what each of you men solemnly promised to your wives when you were young. But you men have not done what you promised your wives; you sent them away, the ones to whom you made that agreement.
15 Anumzamo'a tanagrira vene a'enena trohu tanantegeta, arave huta magoke tanavufga huta mani'na'e. Amega tanavufgare'ene avamupine tanagra Agri su'a mani'na'e. Hagi Agra naza tanagripintira eri'za nehie? Tanagripinti'ma fore'ma hanaza mofavreramimo'ma Agri'ma koroma hunte'za agoraga'ama mani zanku ave'nesie. E'igu kagu'a kegava hunenka nehazavema mani'nenka eri'nana aka'are mani fatgo huo.
It is certainly [RHQ] Yahweh who joined you together. Your spirits and your bodies belong to him. [So] what he wants [RHQ] from you are godly children. So make sure that each of you men remain (with/loyal to) the woman that you married when you were young.
16 Na'ankure aravema atane zankura tusiza huno nevresra nehie huno Ra Anumzana Israeli vahe Anumzamo'a hu'ne. A'ma netranana, nomani'zama'a azeri amuho nehunka, tusi'a ataza nemine, huno Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne. E'igu kagu'a kegava hu'nenka, aka'are mani fatgo hunka manio.
Yahweh, the God to whom [we] Israelis belong, says, “I hate divorce!” [So] if you men divorce your wives, you are overwhelming them by being cruel to them. So be sure that you are (not disloyal/remain united) to your wives. [That is what] the Commander of the armies of angels says.
17 Tamagra rama'a naneke huta Anumzamofona azeri avesra nehaze. Nehuta inankna huta azeri avesra nehune? huta agenoka nehaze. Kefo avu'ava'ma nehaza vahe'mota huta, Ra Anumzamofo avurera tagra knare hu'nonankino, Agra muse hunerante hutama nehaza kemo'a, Ra Anumzamofona azeri avesra nehigeta, iga fatgo huno'ma refkoma nehia Anumzana mani'ne? huta agenoka nehaze.
Yahweh [also says], “What you have said has caused me to become disgusted.” You reply, “What have we said that caused him to become disgusted?” [The answer is that you have caused him to become disgusted] by saying that Yahweh is pleased with all those who do evil things. [You have caused him to become disgusted] by [constantly] asking, “Why does God not act fairly?”
