< Hagay 1 >
1 Tamy taom-paha-roe’ i Dariavese mpanjakay, amy volam-paha-eneñey, amy valoha’ i volañey, le niheo amy Zerobabele ana’ i Sealtiele mpifehe’ Iehodà naho am’ Iehosoa ana’ Iehotsadake mpisorombey ty tsara’ Iehovà añamy Kagày mpitokiy, nanao ty ti-hoe:
In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, in the first day of the month, the word of Jehovah came by Haggai the prophet to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, saying,
2 Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà’ i Màroy, Manao ty hoe ondaty retoañe, Mboe tsy tondroke i àndroy, ty andro hamboareñe ty anjomba’ Iehovà.
Thus speaks Jehovah of hosts, saying, This people say, It is not the time for us to come, the time for Jehovah's house to be built.
3 Niheo eo amy zao añamy Kagày mpitokiy ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
Then the word of Jehovah came by Haggai the prophet, saying,
4 Sam-piagaregaña’ areo amo akiba’ areo soa tinemetseo hao henaneo, ie mangoakoake ty anjomba toy?
Is it a time for you yourselves to dwell in your paneled houses while this house lies waste?
5 Aa le hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà’ i màroy, Itsakoreo o sata’ areoo:
Now therefore thus says Jehovah of hosts: Consider your ways.
6 Bey ty tinongi’ areo fa kede ty nivokareñe; mikama fe tsy ànjañe; minoñe fe tsy etsake; misikiñe fe tsy mafana; vaho mandrambe tambe an-koroñe loadoake ty mpitoroñe.
Ye have sown much, and bring in little. Ye eat, but ye have not enough. Ye drink, but ye are not filled with drink. Ye clothe yourselves, but there is none warm. And he who earns wages earns wages to put into a bag with holes.
7 Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà’ i Màroy, Vetsevetseo o sata’ areoo.
Thus says Jehovah of hosts: Consider your ways.
8 Mionjona mb’amy vohitsey mb’eo naho añandeso hatae le amboaro i anjombay hahafale ahy, hahazoako engeñe, hoe t’Iehovà.
Go up to the mountain, and bring wood, and build the house. And I will take pleasure in it, and I will be glorified, says Jehovah.
9 Mipay maro nahareo fe tsy ampeampe ty oniñe; ie endese’ areo moly le tiofeko añe. Akore arè? hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy: Toe napoke ho kòake i kivohokoy, ie songa milay mb’añ’akiba’e mb’eo.
Ye looked for much, and, lo, it came to little, and when ye brought it home, I blew upon it. Why? says Jehovah of hosts. Because of my house that lays waste while ye run each man to his own house.
10 Toe ie ty añajà’ i likerañey zono, naho itambozora’ i taney havokarañe.
Therefore for your sake the heavens withhold the dew, and the earth withholds its fruit.
11 Nitokavako hasalikoañe ty tane toy naho o vohitseo naho o vare-boleo naho o divaio naho o menakeo naho o famokara’ ty tane toio, naho ondatio naho o hareo vaho ze fonga fitoloñam-pitàñe.
And I called for a drought upon the land, and upon the mountains, and upon the grain, and upon the new wine, and upon the oil, and upon that which the ground brings forth, and upon men, and upon cattle, and upon all the labor of the hands.
12 Aa le jinanji’ i Zerobabele, ana’ i Sealtiele, naho Iehosoa, ana’ Iehotsadake, mpisorom-bey, naho ze sehanga’ ondaty iaby ty fiarañanaña’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ iareo naho o tsara naboa’ i Kagày mpitoky, namantoha’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ iareoo, vaho nañeveñe am’ Iehovà ondatio.
Then Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, with all the remnant of the people, obeyed the voice of Jehovah their God, and the words of Haggai the prophet, as Jehovah their God had sent him. And the people feared before Jehovah.
13 Le nitaroñe’ i Kagày ira’ Iehovà am’ ondatio ty nafe’ Iehovà: Ama’ areo iraho, hoe t’Iehovà.
Then Haggai, Jehovah's agent, spoke in Jehovah's message to the people, saying, I am with you, says Jehovah.
14 Nitroboe’ Iehovà amy zao ty arofo’ i Zerobabele, ana’ i Sealtiele, mpifele’ Iehodà naho ty arofo’ Iehosoa, ana’ Iehotsadake, mpisorom-bey naho o tro’ ondaty sehanga’e iabio, Vaho niheo mb’eo nitoloñe amy anjomba’ Iehovà’ i Màroy, Andrianañahare’ iareoy,
And Jehovah stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people. And they came and did work on the house of Jehovah of hosts, their God,
15 amy andro faha-roapolo-efats-ambi’ i volam-pah-ene’ i taom-paharoe’ i Dariavese mpanjakaiy.
in the twenty-fourth day of the month, in the sixth month, in the second year of Darius the king.
