Haagee 2
1 Jiʼa torbaffaa keessaa, bultii digdamii tokkoffaatti dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee karaa Haagee raajichaatiin dhufe;
In the seventh month, in the twenty-first day of the month, the word of Jehovah came by Haggai 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 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 ‘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 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 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, Zerubbabel,' says Jehovah. 'Be strong, Joshua, son of Jehozadak, the high priest. Be strong, all you people of the land,' says Jehovah, 'and work, for I am with you,' says Jehovah of hosts.
5 ‘Yeroo isin biyya Gibxii baatan sanatti, kakuun ani isin wajjin galee kanaa dha. Hafuurri koo isin gidduu jira. Isin hin sodaatinaa.’
This is the word that I covenanted with you when you came out of Egypt, and my Spirit lived among you. 'Do not be afraid.'
6 “Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedha: ‘Ani ammas yeroo gabaabaa keessatti deebiʼee samiiwwanii fi lafa, galaanaa fi lafa goggogaa nan raasa.
For this is what Jehovah of hosts says: 'Yet once more, it is a little while, and I will shake the heavens 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 they will come with the treasures of all nations, and I will fill this house with glory, says Jehovah of hosts.
8 ‘Meetiin kan koo ti; warqeenis kan koo ti’ jedha Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu.
The silver is mine, and the gold is mine,' says Jehovah of hosts.
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.”
'The latter glory of this house will be greater than the former,' says Jehovah of hosts; 'and in this place will I give peace,' says Jehovah of hosts."
10 Waggaa lammaffaa bulchiinsa Daariyoos keessa, bultii digdamii afuraffaa jiʼa saglaffaatti, dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara Haagee raajichaa dhufe;
In the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, in the second year of Daryavesh, the word of Jehovah came by Haggai the prophet, saying,
11 “Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedha; ‘Waan seerri jedhu luboota gaafadhu;
"Thus says Jehovah of hosts: Ask now the priests 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 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 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.
Then Haggai said, "If one who is unclean by reason of a dead body touch any of these, will it be unclean?" The priests answered, "It will be unclean."
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.
Then Haggai answered, "'So is this people, and so is this nation before me,' says Jehovah; 'and so is every work of their hands. That which they offer there is unclean.
15 “‘Egaa guyyaa kanaa jalqabaatii of eeggannaadhaan qalbeeffadhaa; mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessatti haala utuu dhagaan tokko dhagaa kaan irra hin kaaʼamin dura ture hubadhaa.
Now, please consider from this day and backward, before a stone was laid on a stone in the temple of Jehovah.
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.
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 Ani hojii harka keessanii hunda waagiidhaan, awwaaroo fi cabbiidhaan nan rukute; isin garuu gara kootti hin deebine’ jedha Waaqayyo.
I struck you with blight, mildew, and hail in all the work of your hands; yet you did not turn to me,' says Jehovah.
18 Guyyaa kanaa jalqabaatii jechuunis guyyaa digdamii afuraffaa jiʼa saglaffaa kanaa jalqabaatii hamma guyyaa hundeen mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo buufameetti of eeggannaadhaan qalbeeffadhaa.
'Consider, please, from this day and backward, from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, since the day that the foundation of Jehovah's temple was laid, consider it.
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.’”
Is the seed yet in the barn? Yes, the vine, the fig tree, the pomegranate, and the olive tree haven't brought forth. From this day will I bless you.'"
20 Dubbiin Waaqayyoo bultii digdamii afuraffaa jiʼa sanaatti yeroo lammaffaa akkana jedhee gara Haagee dhufe;
The word of Jehovah came the second time to Haggai in the twenty-fourth day of the month, saying,
21 “Akka ani samiiwwanii fi lafa raasuuf jiru Zarubaabel bulchaa Yihuudaatti himi.
"Speak to Zerubbabel, governor of Judah, saying, 'I will shake the heavens and the earth.
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.
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 “‘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 Jehovah of hosts, will I take you, Zerubbabel, my servant, the son of Shealtiel,' says Jehovah, 'and will make you as a signet, for I have chosen you,' says Jehovah of hosts."
