Haagee 2
1 Jiʼa torbaffaa keessaa, bultii digdamii tokkoffaatti dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee karaa Haagee raajichaatiin dhufe;
In the seventh month, on the one and twentieth day of the month, came the word of Jehovah by the prophet Haggai, 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 Josedech, 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 there left among you, That saw this house In its former glory? And what do ye see it now? Is it not as nothing in 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 Zerubbabel, saith Jehovah; And be strong, O Joshua, son of Josedech, the high-priest; And be strong, O all ye people of the land, saith Jehovah, and work! For I am with you, saith 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 covenant which I made with you when ye came out of Egypt, And my spirit remaineth among you: Fear ye not!
6 “Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedha: ‘Ani ammas yeroo gabaabaa keessatti deebiʼee samiiwwanii fi lafa, galaanaa fi lafa goggogaa nan raasa.
For thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Yet once more, in a short time, I will shake the heavens and the earth, 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.
I will shake all the nations, And here shall come the precious things of all the nations; And I will fill this house with glory, Saith Jehovah of hosts.
8 ‘Meetiin kan koo ti; warqeenis kan koo ti’ jedha Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu.
Mine is the silver and mine the gold, Saith 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.”
Greater shall be the glory of this latter house than of the former, Saith Jehovah of hosts; And in this place will I give peace, Saith Jehovah of hosts.
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, came the word of Jehovah by Haggai the prophet, saying,
11 “Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedha; ‘Waan seerri jedhu luboota gaafadhu;
Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Ask now the law from the priests, 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 carry holy flesh in the skirt of his garment, and with his skirt touch bread, or pottage, or wine, or oil, or any food, 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.
Then said Haggai, If a man unclean by a dead body touch any of these things, shall it be unclean? And the priests answered and said, It shall 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 answered Haggai and said: — So is this people, and so is this nation before me, saith Jehovah; And so is all the work of their hands; And 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.
And now, I pray you, consider [[how it hath gone with you]] From that day and upward, From the time before one stone was laid upon another 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.
Since that time one hath come to a heap of twenty measures, And there were but ten; One hath come to a vat to draw out fifty vessels from the wine-press, 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 have smitten you with blasting, with mildew, and with hail, Even all the works of your hands; Yet none among you hath turned to me, saith Jehovah.
18 Guyyaa kanaa jalqabaatii jechuunis guyyaa digdamii afuraffaa jiʼa saglaffaa kanaa jalqabaatii hamma guyyaa hundeen mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo buufameetti of eeggannaadhaan qalbeeffadhaa.
Consider, I pray you, From that day and upward, From the four and twentieth day of the ninth month, From the day when the foundation of the temple of Jehovah was laid, Consider ye!
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 there yet seed in the barn? Yea, as yet the vine, and the fig-tree, and pomegranate, and the olive-tree have not borne. But 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 Jehovah came the second time to Haggai, on the four and twentieth day of the month, saying,
21 “Akka ani samiiwwanii fi lafa raasuuf jiru Zarubaabel bulchaa Yihuudaatti himi.
Speak to Zerubbabel, the governor of Judah, and say: — 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.
And I will overthrow the thrones of kingdoms, And I will destroy the strength of the kingdoms of the nations, And I will overthrow the chariots, and those that ride in them, And the horses and their riders shall come down, One by the sword of the other.
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, saith Jehovah of hosts, I will take thee, O Zerubbabel, son of Shealtiel, my servant, saith Jehovah, And keep thee as a signet-ring; For thee have I chosen, saith Jehovah of hosts.
