Agej 2
1 Sedmoga mjeseca dvadeset prvoga dana doðe rijeè Gospodnja preko Ageja proroka govoreæi:
In the seventh month, in the twenty-first day of the month, the LORD’s word came by Haggai the prophet, saying,
2 Kaži sada Zorovavelju sinu Salatilovu, upravitelju Judejskom, i Isusu sinu Josedekovu, poglavaru sveštenièkom, i ostatku narodnom govoreæi:
“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 Ko je meðu vama ostao koji je vidio ovaj dom u prvoj slavi njegovoj? a kakav vi sada vidite? nije li prema onom kao ništa u vašim oèima?
‘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 Nego sada budi hrabar, Zorovavelju, govori Gospod, i budi hrabar Isuse sine Josedekov, poglavaru sveštenièki, i budi hrabar sav narode zemaljski, govori Gospod, i radite; jer sam ja s vama, govori Gospod nad vojskama.
Yet now be strong, Zerubbabel,’ says the LORD. ‘Be strong, Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest. Be strong, all you people of the land,’ says the LORD, ‘and work, for I am with you,’ says the LORD of Hosts.
5 Po rijeèi kojom sam uèinio zavjet s vama kad izidoste iz Misira, duh æe moj stajati meðu vama, ne bojte se.
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 Jer ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: još jednom, domalo, i ja æu potresti nebesa i zemlju i more i suhu zemlju;
For this is what the LORD of Hosts says: ‘Yet once more, it is a little while, and I will shake the heavens, the earth, the sea, and the dry land;
7 I potrešæu sve narode, i doæi æe izabrani iz svijeh naroda, i napuniæu ovaj dom slave, veli Gospod nad vojskama.
and I will shake all nations. The treasure of all nations will come, and I will fill this house with glory, says the LORD of Hosts.
8 Moje je srebro i moje je zlato, govori Gospod nad vojskama.
The silver is mine, and the gold is mine,’ says the LORD of Hosts.
9 Slava æe ovoga doma pošljednjega biti veæa nego onoga prvoga, veli Gospod nad vojskama; i postaviæu mir na ovom mjestu, govori Gospod nad vojskama.
‘The latter glory of this house will be greater than the former,’ says the LORD of Hosts; ‘and in this place I will give peace,’ says the LORD of Hosts.”
10 Dvadeset èetvrtoga dana devetoga mjeseca druge godine Darijeve doðe rijeè Gospodnja preko Ageja proroka govoreæi:
In the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, in the second year of Darius, the LORD’s word came by Haggai the prophet, saying,
11 Ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: upitaj sveštenike za zakon, i reci:
“The LORD of Hosts says: Ask now the priests concerning the law, saying,
12 Gle, ako bi ko nosio sveto meso u skutu od haljine svoje, ili bi se skutom svojim dotakao hljeba ili variva ili vina ili ulja ili kakoga god jela, bi li se osvetio? A sveštenici odgovoriše i rekoše: ne.
‘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 Potom reèe Agej: ako bi se ko neèist od mrtvaca dotakao èega toga, hoæe li biti neèisto? A sveštenici odgovoriše i rekoše: biæe neèisto.
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 Tada Agej odgovori i reèe: taki je taj narod i taki su ti ljudi preda mnom, govori Gospod, i tako je sve djelo ruku njihovijeh, i što god prinose tamo, neèisto je.
Then Haggai answered, “‘So is this people, and so is this nation before me,’ says the LORD; ‘and so is every work of their hands. That which they offer there is unclean.
15 A sada uzmite na um, od ovoga dana nazad, prije nego se položi kamen na kamen u crkvi Gospodnjoj,
Now, please consider from this day and backward, before a stone was laid on a stone in the LORD’s temple.
16 Prije toga kad ko doðe ka gomili od dvadeset mjera, bješe deset; kad doðe ka kaci da dobije pedeset vjedara iz kace, bješe dvadeset;
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 Bih vas sušom i medljikom i gradom, svako djelo ruku vaših; ali se vi ne obratiste k meni, govori Gospod.
I struck you with blight, mildew, and hail in all the work of your hands; yet you didn’t turn to me,’ says the LORD.
18 Uzmite na um, od toga dana nazad, od dana dvadeset èetvrtoga mjeseca devetoga, od dana kad se osnova crkva Gospodnja, uzmite na um.
‘Consider, please, from this day and backward, from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, since the day that the foundation of the LORD’s temple was laid, consider it.
19 Ima li jošte sjemena u žitnici? ni vinova loza ni smokva ni šipak ni maslina još ne rodi; od ovoga æu dana blagosloviti.
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 Potom doðe rijeè Gospodnja drugi put Ageju dvadeset èetvrtoga dana mjeseca govoreæi:
The LORD’s word came the second time to Haggai in the twenty-fourth day of the month, saying,
21 Kaži Zorovavelju upravitelju Judejskom, i reci: ja æu potresti nebo i zemlju;
“Speak to Zerubbabel, governor of Judah, saying, ‘I will shake the heavens and the earth.
22 I prevaliæu prijesto carstvima, i satræu silu carstvima narodnijem, prevaliæu kola i one koji sjede na njima, i popadaæe konji i konjici, svaki od maèa brata svojega.
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 U to vrijeme, govori Gospod nad vojskama, uzeæu tebe, Zorovavelju, sine Salatilov, slugo moj, govori Gospod, i postaviæu te kao peèat; jer sam te izabrao, govori Gospod nad vojskama.
In that day, says the LORD of Hosts, I will take you, Zerubbabel my servant, the son of Shealtiel,’ says the LORD, ‘and will make you like a signet ring, for I have chosen you,’ says the LORD of Hosts.”
