Haagee 2
1 Jiʼa torbaffaa keessaa, bultii digdamii tokkoffaatti dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee karaa Haagee raajichaatiin dhufe;
In the seventh month, on the twenty-first [day] of the month, the Lord spoke by Aggaeus the prophet, saying,
2 “Zarubaabel ilma Sheʼaltiiʼeel bulchaa Yihuudaatti, Iyyaasuu ilma Yehoozaadaaq lubicha ol aanaattii fi hambaa uummataatti dubbadhu. Akkanas jedhii isaan gaafadhu;
Speak now to Zorobabel the son of Salathiel, of the tribe of Juda, and to Jesus the son of Josedec, the high priest, and to all the remnant of the people, saying,
3 ‘Isin keessaa namni mana kana ulfina isaa kan duraa sana argee amma iyyuu jiru eenyu? Inni amma maal isinitti fakkaata? Waanuma faayidaa hin qabne tokko isinitti hin fakkaatuu?
Who [is there] of you that saw this house in her former glory? and how do you now look upon it, as it were nothing before your eyes?
4 Yaa Zarubaabel, egaa amma jabaadhu’ jedha Waaqayyo. ‘Yaa Iyyaasuu ilma Yehoozaadaaq lubicha ol aanaa atis jabaadhu. Isinis sabni biyya kanaa hundinuu jabaadhaatii hojjedhaa’ jedha Waaqayyo. ‘Ani isin wajjinan jiraatii’ jedha Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu.
Yet now be strong, O Zorobabel, says the Lord; and strengthen yourself, O Jesus the high priest, the son of Josedec; and let all the people of the land strengthen themselves, says the Lord, and work, for I am with you, says the Lord Almighty;
5 ‘Yeroo isin biyya Gibxii baatan sanatti, kakuun ani isin wajjin galee kanaa dha. Hafuurri koo isin gidduu jira. Isin hin sodaatinaa.’
and my Spirit remains in the midst of you; be of good courage.
6 “Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedha: ‘Ani ammas yeroo gabaabaa keessatti deebiʼee samiiwwanii fi lafa, galaanaa fi lafa goggogaa nan raasa.
For thus says the Lord Almighty; Yet once I will shake the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry [land];
7 Ani saboota hunda nan raasa; qabeenyi sabootaa hundi ni dhufa; anis mana kana ulfinaan nan guuta’ jedha Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu.
and I will shake all nations, and the choice [portions] of all the nations shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, says the Lord Almighty.
8 ‘Meetiin kan koo ti; warqeenis kan koo ti’ jedha Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu.
Mine is the silver, and mine the gold, says the Lord Almighty.
9 ‘Ulfinni mana ammaa kun ulfina mana duraa sanaa ni caala’ jedha Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu. ‘Anis iddoo kanatti nagaa nan kenna’ jedha Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu.”
For the glory of this house shall be great, the latter more than the former, says the Lord Almighty: and in this place will I give peace, says the Lord Almighty, even peace of soul for a possession to every one that builds, to raise up this temple.
10 Waggaa lammaffaa bulchiinsa Daariyoos keessa, bultii digdamii afuraffaa jiʼa saglaffaatti, dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara Haagee raajichaa dhufe;
On the four and twentieth [day] of the ninth month, in the second year of Darius, the word of the Lord came to Aggaeus the prophet, saying,
11 “Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedha; ‘Waan seerri jedhu luboota gaafadhu;
Thus says the Lord Almighty; Inquire now of the priest [concerning] the law, saying,
12 yoo namni tokko foon qulqulleeffamee Waaqaaf kenname fuudhee dachaa wayyaa isaa keessatti baatee wayyaan sun buddeena yookaan ittoo, daadhii wayinii, zayitii yookaan nyaata gosa biraa tuqe, nyaanni sun ni qulqulleeffamaa?’” Luboonnis, “Waawuu” jedhanii deebisaniif.
If a man should take holy flesh in the skirt of his garment, and the skirt of his garment should touch bread, or pottage, or wine, or oil, or any meat, shall it be holy? And the priests answered and said, No.
13 Ergasii Haageen akkana jedhe; “Namni reeffa tuqee xuraaʼe tokko yoo wantoota kanneen keessaa tokko tuqe wanni sun ni xuraaʼaa?” Luboonni sunis, “Eeyyee, wanni sun ni xuraaʼa” jedhanii deebisaniif.
And Aggaeus said, If a defiled person who is unclean by reason of a dead body, touch any of these, shall it be defiled? And the priests answered and said, It shall be defiled.
14 Haageen akkana jedhe; “‘Uummanni kunii fi sabni kun fuula koo duratti akkasuma’ jedha Waaqayyo. ‘Wanni isaan hojjetan hundii fi wanni isaan achitti dhiʼeessan hundi xuraaʼaa dha.
And Aggaeus answered and said, So is this people, and so is this nation before me, says the Lord; and so are all the works of their hands: and whoever shall approach them, shall be defiled [because of their early burdens: they shall be pained because of their toils; and you have hated him that reproved in the gates].
15 “‘Egaa guyyaa kanaa jalqabaatii of eeggannaadhaan qalbeeffadhaa; mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessatti haala utuu dhagaan tokko dhagaa kaan irra hin kaaʼamin dura ture hubadhaa.
And now consider, I pray you, from this day and beforetime, before they laid a stone on a stone in the temple of the Lord, what manner of men you were.
16 Namni kam iyyuu yeroo gara tuullaa safartuu digdamaa dhufetti safartuu kudhan qofa argate. Namni kam iyyuu yeroo daadhii wayinii safartuu shantama waraabbachuuf gara boolla itti wayinii cuunfanii dhaqetti safartuu digdama qofa argate.
When you cast into the corn-bin twenty measures of barley, and there were [only] ten measures of barley: and you went to the vat to draw out fifty measures, and there were [but] twenty.
17 Ani hojii harka keessanii hunda waagiidhaan, awwaaroo fi cabbiidhaan nan rukute; isin garuu gara kootti hin deebine’ jedha Waaqayyo.
I struck you with barrenness, and with blasting, and all the works of your hands with hail; yet you returned not to me, says the Lord.
18 Guyyaa kanaa jalqabaatii jechuunis guyyaa digdamii afuraffaa jiʼa saglaffaa kanaa jalqabaatii hamma guyyaa hundeen mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo buufameetti of eeggannaadhaan qalbeeffadhaa.
Set your hearts now [to think] from this day and upward, from the four and twentieth [day] of the ninth month, even from the day when the foundation of the temple of the Lord was laid;
19 Amma iyyuu sanyiin gombisaa keessatti hafe tokko iyyuu jiraa? Hamma ammaatti mukni wayiniitii fi mukni harbuu, roomaanii fi mukni ejersaa ija hin naqanne. “‘Ani guyyaa kanaa jalqabee isin nan eebbisa.’”
consider in your hearts, whether [this] shall be known on the corn-floor, and whether yet the vine, and the fig tree, and the pomegranate, and the olive-trees that bear no fruit [are with you]: from this day will I bless [you].
20 Dubbiin Waaqayyoo bultii digdamii afuraffaa jiʼa sanaatti yeroo lammaffaa akkana jedhee gara Haagee dhufe;
And the word of the Lord came the second time to Aggaeus the prophet, on the four and twentieth [day] of the month, saying,
21 “Akka ani samiiwwanii fi lafa raasuuf jiru Zarubaabel bulchaa Yihuudaatti himi.
Speak to Zorobabel the son of Salathiel, of the tribe of Juda, saying, I shake the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry [land];
22 Ani teessoo moototaa nan garagalcha; humna mootummoota biyya alaas nan barbadeessa. Ani gaariiwwanii fi ooftota isaanii nan garagalcha; fardeenii fi warra fardeen yaabbatan ni kufu; tokkoon tokkoon isaanii goraadee obboleessa isaaniitiin ni kufu.
and I will overthrow the thrones of kings, and I will destroy the power of the kings of the nations; and I will overthrow chariots and riders; and the horses and their riders shall come down, every one by the sword striving against his brother.
23 “‘Guyyaa sana’ jedha Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu; ‘Yaa tajaajilaa koo Zarubaabel ilma Sheʼaltiiʼeel, ani sin fudhadha’ jedha Waaqayyo; ‘Ani waanan si filadheef akka qubeelaa chaappaa koo sin godhadha’ jedha Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu.”
In that day, says the Lord Almighty, I will take you, O Zorobabel, the son of Salathiel, my servant, says the Lord, and will make you as a seal: for I have chosen you, says the Lord Almighty.
