< Hagaja 2 >

1 Septītā mēneša divdesmit pirmā dienā notika Tā Kunga vārds caur pravieti Hagaju sacīdams:
On October 17 [of that year], Yahweh gave [me], the prophet Haggai, [another] message.
2 Runā jel uz Zerubabeli, Šealtiēļa dēlu, Jūda valdnieku, un uz Jozua, Jocadaka dēlu, augsto priesteri, un uz tiem atlikušiem ļaudīm un saki:
[The message was that I should] say this to Zerubbabel, Jeshua, and to the other people who were still alive [in Jerusalem]:
3 Kurš ir jūsu starpā atlicis, kas šo namu redzējis viņa pirmā godībā un to tagad redz? Vai šis(nams) pret viņu nav tā kā nekas jūsu acīs?
“Do any of you remember how glorious our former temple was? [If you do, ] what does it look like to you now? It must seem like nothing at all.
4 Tomēr nu, Zerubabel, esi drošs! saka Tas Kungs, un Jozua, Jocadaka dēls, augstais priesteri, esi drošs, un esiet droši, visi šīs zemes ļaudis! saka Tas Kungs, un strādājiet, jo Es esmu ar jums, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot.
But now the Commander of the armies of angels says to [all of you], to Zerubbabel and Jeshua and the rest of you people who live in this nation, ‘[Do not be discouraged; ] be strong [DOU], and work [to build this new temple], because I will (be with/help) you.
5 Tas vārds, caur ko Es ar jums derību cēlis, kad jūs izgājāt no Ēģiptes zemes, un Mans gars paliek jūsu vidū. Nebīstaties!
My Spirit remains among you, like I promised your [ancestors] when they left Egypt. [So] do not be afraid!’”
6 Jo tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot: vēl mazs brīdis, tad Es kustināšu debesis un zemi, jūru un sausumu,
This is what the Commander of the armies of angels says: “Soon I will shake the sky and the earth, the oceans and the land again.
7 Un visus pagānus Es kustināšu, un tad nāks visu tautu prieks. Un Es piepildīšu šo namu ar godību, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot.
I will shake [again the people of] all the nations, and as a result they will bring their treasures [to this temple]. I will fill this temple with [my] glory.
8 Man pieder sudrabs un Man pieder zelts, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot.
The silver and the gold [that they own] are [really] mine, [so they will bring them to me].
9 Šā pēdīgā nama godība būs lielāka nekā tā pirmā, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot. Un šai vietai Es došu mieru, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot.
[Then] this temple will be more glorious than the former/previous [temple was]. And I will cause things to go well for you all. [That will surely happen because I, ] the Commander of the armies of angels, have said it.”
10 Divdesmit ceturtā dienā, devītā mēnesī, Dārija otrā gadā, Tā Kunga vārds notika caur pravieti Hagaju sacīdams:
On December 18 of that year, Yahweh gave [another] message to [me], the prophet Haggai.
11 Tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot: vaicā jel priesteriem par bauslību un saki:
This is what the Commander of the armies of angels said to me: “Ask the priests [this question] about what is written in the laws [of Moses about sacrifices]:
12 Redzi, kad kas svētu gaļu nestu savas drēbes stūrī, un ar savu stūri aizskartu maizi vai pavalgu vai vīnu vai eļļu vai kādu citu barību, vai tā būtu svētīta? Tad tie priesteri atbildēja un sacīja: Nebūtu.
‘If one [of you priests takes from the altar some] meat that was sacrificed and is carrying it in his robes, if his robe touches [some] bread or stew or wine or [olive] oil or some other food, does that food also become (holy/acceptable for a sacrifice)?’” [When he said that to] the priests, they replied, “No.”
13 Tad Hagaja sacīja: ja kāds, nešķīsts būdams no miroņa, visu šo aizskar, vai tas paliktu nešķīsts? Un priesteri atbildēja un sacīja: tas paliktu nešķīsts.
Then Haggai asked them, “If someone becomes unacceptable to God by touching a corpse, and [then he] touches any of those foods, will the food [also] become unacceptable to God?” The priests replied, “Yes.”
14 Tad Hagaja atbildēja un sacīja: tādi ir šie ļaudis, un tāda ir šī tauta Manā priekšā, saka Tas Kungs, un tāds viss viņu roku darbs, un ko tie tur upurē, tas ir nešķīsts.
Then Haggai replied, “Yahweh says [this]: ‘It is the same with you people and with this nation. Everything that you do and [all the sacrifices] that you all offer are unacceptable to me [because of the sins that you have committed].
15 Un nu ņemiet vērā savā sirdī, kas bijis no šās dienas atpakaļ un vēl senāki, pirms akmens tapa likts uz akmeni pie Tā Kunga nama,
Think about what has been happening to you before you began to lay the foundation of my temple.
16 Pirms tas notika, kad kāds gāja pie labības kopas no divdesmit pūriem, tad tur bija tikai desmit, kad viņš gāja pie vīna spaida un gribēja smelt piecdesmit mērus, tad bija tikai divdesmit.
When you expected [to harvest] 20 bushels [of grain, you harvested] only ten bushels. When someone went to a [big] wine vat to get 50 gallons [of wine], there were only 20 [gallons in the vat].
17 Es jūs situ ar bulu, rūsu un krusu, visu jūsu roku darbu, un jūs neatgriežaties pie manis, saka Tas Kungs.
I sent (blight/hot winds) and mildew and hail to destroy all your crops. But still you did not return to me.
18 Ņemiet jel vērā savā sirdi, kas būs no šās dienas un uz priekšu, no devītā mēneša divdesmit ceturtās dienas, no tās dienas, kad pamats ir likts pie Tā Kunga nama, ņemiet to vērā savā sirdī.
Starting from this day, December 18, the day when [you] have laid the foundation of my [new] temple, continue to think carefully [about your situation].
19 Vai vēl ir sēkla klētī? Un vīna koks un vīģes koks un granātkoks un eļļas koks, tie nav nesuši(augļus). No šās dienas es svētīšu.
Is there now [RHQ] [any grain] seed left in your barns? [No, because you have eaten the small amount that you harvested]. And there is no fruit on your grapevines and fig trees and pomegranate [trees] and olive trees. But, from now on, I will bless you!’”
20 Un Tā Kunga vārds otrreiz notika uz Hagaju divdesmit ceturtā mēneša dienā sacīdams:
On that same day, Yahweh gave another message to me.
21 Runā uz Zerubabeli, Jūda valdnieku, un saki: Es kustināšu debesis un zemi.
[He said, ] “Tell Zerubbabel the governor of Judah that I am going to shake the sky and the earth.
22 Un Es apgāzīšu ķēniņu goda krēslus un izdeldēšu stiprās pagānu valstis un apgāzīšu ratus un braucējus, un kritīs zirgi un jātnieki, cits caur cita zobenu.
I will end the power of the kings of [many] nations [DOU]. I will cause their chariots and their drivers, their horses and [the soldiers] who are riding on them to be destroyed. [What will happen is that I will cause the soldiers] to kill each other with their swords.
23 Tai dienā, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot, Es tevi ņemšu, Zerubabel, Šealtiēļa dēls, Mans kalps, saka Tas Kungs, un tevi turēšu kā spiežamu gredzenu, jo tevi Es esmu izredzējis, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot.
Zerubbabel, you serve [me well]. So [I], the Commander of the armies of angels, declare that [like kings wear] signet rings [to show that they have authority to rule people], I will appoint you and cause you [to have authority to rule]. I will do that because I have chosen you. [That will surely happen because I, ] the Commander of the armies of angels, have said it.”
