Hagay 2
1 Niheo amy Kagày mpitokiy amy volam-pahafitoy, amy andro faha-roapolo-raik’ ambi’ i volañeiy, ty tsara’ Iehovà manao ty hoe:
In the seventh month, in the twenty-first day of the month, Yahweh’s word came by Haggai the prophet, saying,
2 anò ty hoe amy Zerobabele, ana’ i Sealtiele, naho am’ Iehosoa, ana’ Iehotsadake, mpisorom-bey, vaho amo sehanga’ondatio:
“Speak now to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and to the remnant of the people, saying,
3 Ia ty honka ama’ areo nahaisake ty anjomba toy amy enge’e taoloy? akore ty fahaoniña’ areo aze henanekeo? Hera tsy vente’e am-pihaino’ areo?
‘Who is left among you who saw this house in its former glory? How do you see it now? Isn’t it in your eyes as nothing?
4 Fe mihaozara henane zao ry Zerobabele, hoe t’Iehovà; le mihafatrara ry Iehosoa, ana’ Iehotsadake, mpisorom-bey, naho mihaozara ry hene ondati’ o taneo, hoe t’Iehovà vaho mifanehafa, fa himbaeko, hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy.
Yet now be strong, Zerubbabel,’ says Yahweh. ‘Be strong, Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest. Be strong, all you people of the land,’ says Yahweh, ‘and work, for I am with you,’ says Yahweh of Armies.
5 Kanao nampijadoñeko i tsara nifañinàko ama’ areo t’ie niavotse i Mitsraimey te mimoneñe ama’ areo ao ty Troko: le ko mirevendreveñe.
This is the word that I covenanted with you when you came out of Egypt, and my Spirit lived among you. ‘Don’t be afraid.’
6 Fa hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà’ i Màroy: Indraik’ avao, le anianike te hozoñozoñeko i likerañey naho ty tane toy, naho i riakey vaho o tamboho maikeo;
For this is what Yahweh of Armies says: ‘Yet once more, it is a little while, and I will shake the heavens, the earth, the sea, and the dry land;
7 le hampiezeñezeñeko o kilakila’ ondatio, naho homb’atoy iaby ze vara soa’ o fifeheañeo vaho hatsafeko engeñe ty anjomba toy, hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy.
and I will shake all nations. The treasure of all nations will come, and I will fill this house with glory, says Yahweh of Armies.
8 Ahiko o volafotio, Ahiko ka o volamènao, hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy.
The silver is mine, and the gold is mine,’ says Yahweh of Armies.
9 Handikoatse ty enge’ i taoloy ty enge’ i anjomba manonjohiy, hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy; vaho hampanintsiñeko ty toetse toy, hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà’ i Màroy.
‘The latter glory of this house will be greater than the former,’ says Yahweh of Armies; ‘and in this place I will give peace,’ says Yahweh of Armies.”
10 Niheo amy Kagày mpitoky amy faha-roapolo-efats’ambi’ i volam-paha-sivey, amy taom-paha-roe’ i Dariavesey ty tsara’ Iehovà manao ty hoe:
In the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, in the second year of Darius, Yahweh’s word came by Haggai the prophet, saying,
11 Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà’ i Màroy: Añontaneo o mpisoroñeo ty amy Hàke, ty hoe:
“Yahweh of Armies says: Ask now the priests concerning the law, saying,
12 Ie minday hena navaheñe an-kitambe’e ao vaho mioza ami’ty mofo ndra ampemba ndra divay ndra menake ndra amy ze atao mahakama i kitambey, hiavake hao re? Tsie, hoe ty natoi’ o mpisoroñeo.
‘If someone carries holy meat in the fold of his garment, and with his fold touches bread, stew, wine, oil, or any food, will it become holy?’” The priests answered, “No.”
13 Le hoe t’i Kagày: Aa ie tsapae’ ty nileoren-dolo i raha rezay, halio hao re? Haleotse re, hoe ty natoi’ o mpisoroñeo.
Then Haggai said, “If one who is unclean by reason of a dead body touches any of these, will it be unclean?” The priests answered, “It will be unclean.”
14 Nanoiñe amy zao t’i Kagày nanao ty hoe: Izay ka ondaty retoañe, naho ty fifeheañe miatrek’ ahy, hoe t’Iehovà: hambañe ama’e ka o satam-pità’ iareo iabio; vaho maleotse o engae’ iereoo.
Then Haggai answered, “‘So is this people, and so is this nation before me,’ says Yahweh; ‘and so is every work of their hands. That which they offer there is unclean.
15 Ie henane zao, haraharao: taolo’ ty nampiningirañe ty vato ambone’ ty vato añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà ao,
Now, please consider from this day and backward, before a stone was laid on a stone in Yahweh’s temple.
16 ie henane zay naho niheo-mb’am-pitoboroñañe aman-droapolo ondatio, folo avao ty nitendreke; ie nimb’am-pipiritañe mb’eo hañakara’e fitovy limampolo am-pipiritañe ao, le roa-polo avao ty tao;
Through all that time, when one came to a heap of twenty measures, there were only ten. When one came to the wine vat to draw out fifty, there were only twenty.
17 linafako ty voreke o satam-pità’ areoo, naho tromambo, vaho havandra; fe tsy nitolike, hoe t’Iehovà:
I struck you with blight, mildew, and hail in all the work of your hands; yet you didn’t turn to me,’ says Yahweh.
18 Ehe, vetsevetseo henane zao, mifototse amy andro faha-roapolo-efats’ ambi’ i volam-paha-siveiy, i andro nañoreñañe ty mananta’ i anjomba’ Iehovàiy—itsakoreo;
‘Consider, please, from this day and backward, from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, since the day that the foundation of Yahweh’s temple was laid, consider it.
19 ke mbe aman-tabiry ty an-driha ao? Eka, mboe tsy namoa o vaheo, o sakoañeo, o raketao, naho o oliveo—fe henane zao, ho tahieko nahareo.
Is the seed yet in the barn? Yes, the vine, the fig tree, the pomegranate, and the olive tree haven’t produced. From today I will bless you.’”
20 Niheo amy Kagày fañindroe’e amy andro faha-roapolo-efats’ambi’ i volañeiy ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
Yahweh’s word came the second time to Haggai in the twenty-fourth day of the month, saying,
21 Saontsio amy Zerobabele, mpanjaka’ Iehodà ty hoe: hampiezeñezeñeko o likerañeo naho ty tane toy;
“Speak to Zerubbabel, governor of Judah, saying, ‘I will shake the heavens and the earth.
22 havalitsingoreko ty fiambesa’ o fifeheañeo naho harotsako ty haozaram-pifeleha’ o kilakila’ ndatio vaho hahohoko o sareteo rekets’ o mijoñe ama’eo; sindre hikorovoke o soavalao rekets’ o mpiningitseo, songa am-pibaran-dongo’e.
I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms. I will destroy the strength of the kingdoms of the nations. I will overthrow the chariots and those who ride in them. The horses and their riders will come down, everyone by the sword of his brother.
23 Ie amy andro zay, hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy, ho rambeseko irehe ry Zerobabele, mpitoroko, toe ana’ i Sealtiele, hoe t’Iehovà, hanoeko bangem-pitomboke; toe ihe ty jinoboko, hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy.
In that day, says Yahweh of Armies, I will take you, Zerubbabel my servant, the son of Shealtiel,’ says Yahweh, ‘and will make you like a signet ring, for I have chosen you,’ says Yahweh of Armies.”
