Marakai 3

1 Hagi antahiho, Nagri nanekema erino vania kato vaheni'a huntoankino agra vugoteno nevuno, kama vanua kana retro hugahie. Ana hanigeno, tamagrama nehakaza Ra Anumzamo'a antri hanazaza huno mono noma'are egahie. Huhagerafi huvempagema huama'ma hania kato neku'ma nehakaza ne'mo'a tamage huno egahie, huno Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.

Behold, I send my angel, and he will prepare the way before my face. And presently the Sovereign, whom you seek, and the angel of testimony, whom you desire, will arrive at his temple. Behold, he approaches, says the Lord of hosts.

2 Hianagi Agrama esanigeno'a, iza knarera huno ana knarera otigahie? Iza knarera hu'nenimo oti'nenora kegahie? Na'ankure Agra aenima krefizo huno'ma azeri agruma nehia teve nefakna huge, pehenage kukenama sese huno azeri agruma nehia sopegna huno mani'ne.

And who will be able to consider the day of his advent, and who will stand firm in order to see him? For he is like a refining fire, and like the fuller’s herb.

3 Agrama eri'zama erisiana, tevefima silvama kreno eri agruma nehiankna huno, Livae vahera zamazeri agru hanige'za, agrunentake goline silvagna hu'ne'za Ra Anumzamofontera fatgo avu'ava hu'za ofa hugahaze.

And he will sit refining and cleansing the silver, and he will purge the sons of Levi, and he will gather them like gold and like silver, and they will offer sacrifices to the Lord in justice.

4 Ana hanage'za, ko'ma evu'nea knaramimpine kafuramimpinema hu'naza ofama antahizami'nea kna huno Ra Anumzamo'a Juda vahe'ene Jerusalemi vahe'mokizmi ofa antahi zamigahie.

And the sacrifice of Judah and of Jerusalem will please the Lord, just as in the days of past generations, and as in the ancient years.

5 Ana knarera Nagra erava'o hu'na keagare tamavrente'na keaga huramantegahue. Avuatga vahe'ene savri hu'za monko avu'avazama hu'zama vanoma nehaza vahe'ene, zamagi'ari vahe'enena Nagra ame hu'na keagare zamavarente'na keaga huzmantegahue. Hagi iza'o eri'za vahe'ama zagoma atesinte so'ema nosuno, kento a'nene, megusa mofavreramima zamazeri haviza nehuno, ruregati'ma emani vahe'enema zamazeri havizama nehia vahe'ene koroma hunante'za nagorgama nomaniza vahe'enena Nagra keaga huzmantegahue. Na'ankure ama ana vahe'mo'za Nagrira korora hunante'za nagoraga'a nomanize, huno Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.

And I will approach you in judgment, and I will be a swift witness against evil-doers, and adulterers, and perjurers, and those who cheat the hired hand in his wages, the widows and the orphans, and who oppress the traveler, and who have not feared me, says the Lord of hosts.

6 Nagra Ra Anumzana ruzahe osu Anumza mani'noe. E'ina agafare Jekopu mofavreramimota tamazeri haviza osugeta fananea osu'naze.

For I am the Lord, and I do not change. And you, the sons of Jacob, have not been consumed.

7 Tamafahe'mofo knareti'ma e'neana, kasegeni'a kehenkami netreta ovariri'naze. Menina ete rukrahe huta nagrite enkena, Nagra ete rukrahe huna tamagrite vaneno, huno Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne. Hianagi tamagra nagenoka huta, inankna huta tagra rukrahera huta egahune? huta nehaze.

For, from the days of your fathers, you have withdrawn from my ordinances and have not kept them. Return to me, and I will return to you, says the Lord of hosts. And you have said, “In what way, shall we return?”

8 Vahe'mo'a Anumzamofo zantamina amane musufa segahifi? Hianagi Anumzamo'na zantamina tamagra musufa nesaze. Hianagi tamagra huta, inankna huta Anumzamofo zana musufa nesone? Taitine ofane tamagra musufa nesaze.

If a man will afflict God, then you greatly afflict me. And you have said, “In what way, do we afflict you?” In tithes and in first-fruits.

9 Tamagra ana maka'mota kazusifi mani'naze, na'ankure tamagra maka ama mopafima mani'naza vahe'mota Nagri'za musufa nesaze.

And you have been cursed with privation, and you greatly afflict me, even your entire people.

10 Hagi maka'zama refkoma nehanageno 10ni'ma hania kevua erita ne'zama nentazafi ome antenkeno nezamo'a aviteno mono nonifina meno. Ana nehuta menina renaheta keho, zahoma eri kana monafintira Nagra eri anagi'na tusi'a asomura eri tagitresugeno nontamifina fenomo'ma aviteno varehiramina fenoma ante kankamunkura hakegahaze huno Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.

Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, and let there be food in my house. And test me about this, says the Lord, as to whether I will not open to you the floodgates of heaven, and pour out to you a blessing, all the way to abundance.

11 Hagi anama hanage'na hozatamia kegava huramante'nugeno havi kafamo'za zafa ragatamia neza eri hana nosanageno, waini zafamo'a ragama rente'nuno'a zahufafina havizana huno hariri huoramigahie, huno Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.

And I will rebuke for your sakes the devourer, and he will not corrupt the fruit of your land. Neither will the vine in the field be barren, says the Lord of hosts.

12 Ana hanige'za maka kokankoka vahe'mo'za asomu'ene nemaniza vahere hu'za hugahaze. Na'ankure mopatmimo'a hentofaza hu'ne huno Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.

And all nations will call you blessed. For you will be a desirable land, says the Lord of hosts.

13 Tamagra hankave kege huta Nagrira nazeri haviza nehaze huno Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne. Hianagi tamagra huta, tagra inankna huta hankave kea huta kazeri haviza nehune? huta nehaze.

Your words have gathered strength over me, says the Lord.

14 Tamagra huta, nanknare zama'agu Anumzamofona eri'zama'a erinenteta, nanknare'za agripintira erisunku huta kasege'a amagera antegahune nehuta, Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzante'ma kumitigu'ma tasunku huta zavi'matesunana na'a eri fore hugahune? huta nehaze.

And you have said, “What have we spoken against you?” You have said, “He labors in vain who serves God,” and, “What advantage is it that we have kept his precepts, and that we have walked sorrowfully in the sight of the Lord of hosts?”

15 Hianagi menina huta, zamavufaga rama nehaza vahe'mo'za asomu eri'za nemanizageno, kefo avu'ava zama nehaza vahe'mo'za feno vahe nesazageno, Anumzamofoma rehe'za negaza vahe'mo'za knazana e'norize huta nehaze.

Now, therefore, we call the arrogant blessed, as if those who work impiety have been built up, and as if they have tempted God and been saved.

16 Hagi anante Ra Anumzamofoma koro'ma hunente'za agoraga'ama nemaniza vahe'mo'za keaga huganti kama nehazageno, Ra Anumzamo'a agesa anteno nentahie. Ana nehazageno age'okani antahimi vava avontafema Agri avugama me'nea avontafepi, Ra Anumzamofoma koroma hunente'za, agoraga'ama nemaniza vahe'mokizmi zamagia krente'ne.

Then those who fear the Lord spoke, each one with his neighbor. And the Lord paid attention and heeded. And a book of remembrance was written in his sight, for those who fear the Lord and for those who consider his name.

17 Nagra ana vahetmima mareri fenozama hiaza hu'nama zamazeri nafa'ama hanua knarera, kema antahi mofavrema nefa'ma kegava hiaza hanuge'za, zamagra nagri vahe manigahaze, huno Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.

And they will be my special possession, says the Lord of hosts, on the day that I act. And I will spare them, just as a man spares his son who serves him.

18 E'ina hanugeta, e'i fatgo avu'ava'ene vaheki, kefo avu'ava'ene vaheki, e'i Anumzamofoma eri'zama erinentea vaheki, Anumzamofoma eri'zama'ama eri nontea vaheki huta mago'ane keta antahita hugahaze.

And you shall be converted, and you will see the difference between the just and the impious, and between those who serve God and those who do not serve him.
