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.

"Look, I send my messenger, and he will prepare the way before me; and the Lord, whom you seek, will suddenly come to his temple; and the messenger of the covenant, whom you desire, look, he comes." 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.

But who can endure the day of his coming? And who will stand when he appears? For he is coming like a refiner's fire, and like launderer's soap.

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 as a refiner and purifier of silver, and he will purify the sons of Levi, and refine them as gold and silver; and they shall offer to the LORD offerings in righteousness.

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.

Then the offering of Judah and Jerusalem will be pleasant to the LORD, as in the days of old, and as in 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.

I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against the perjurers, and against those who oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and who deprive the foreigner of justice, and do not fear 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, the LORD, do not change; therefore you, sons of Jacob, are not 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.

From the days of your fathers you have turned aside from my ordinances, and have not kept them. Return to me, and I will return to you," says the LORD of hosts. "But you say, 'How 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.

Will a man rob God? Yet you rob me. But you say, 'How have we robbed you?' In tithes and offerings.

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

You are cursed with the curse; for you rob me, even this whole nation.

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 the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house, and test me now in this," says the LORD of hosts, "if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough for.

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.

I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast its fruit before its time in the field," 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.

"All nations shall call you blessed, for you will be a delightful 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 been stout against me," says the LORD. "Yet you say, 'What have we spoken against you?'

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.

You have said, 'It is vain to serve God;' and 'What profit is it that we have followed his instructions, and that we have walked mournfully before 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 we call the proud blessed; indeed, evildoers prosper. They even tempt God and escape.'

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 feared the LORD spoke one with another; and the LORD listened, and heard, and a book of remembrance was written before him, for those who feared the LORD, and who honored 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.

They shall be mine," says the LORD of hosts, "my own possession in the day that I make, and I will spare them, as a man spares his own 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.

Then you shall return and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him who serves God and him who doesn't serve him.
