11 “Zvanzi naJehovha Wamasimba Ose: ‘Bvunza vaprista kuti murayiro unorevei:
“Yehova Wamphamvuzonse akuti, ‘Funsa ansembe za zimene lamulo likunena:
12 Kana munhu akatakura nyama tsvene mumupendero wenguo yake, uye mupendero ukagunzva chingwa kana nyama yakabikwa, kana waini, kana mafuta kana zvimwe zvokudya, zvichava zvitsvene here?’” Vaprista vakapindura vakati, “Kwete.”
Ngati munthu wakulunga nyama yopatulika mu mkanjo wake, ndipo mkanjowo nʼkukhudza buledi kapena msuzi, kapena vinyo, mafuta kapena chakudya cha mtundu wina uliwonse, kodi zimenezo zimasanduka zopatulika?’” Ansembe anayankha kuti, “Ayi.”
13 Ipapo Hagai akapindura akati, “Kana munhu asvibiswa nokubata kwaaita chitunha, akabata chimwe chaizvozvi, ko, chingasvibiswa here?” Vaprista vakapindura vakati, “Hongu chinosvibiswa.”
Pamenepo Hagai anati, “Ngati munthu amene anayipitsidwa pokhudza mtembo akhudza chimodzi cha zinthu zimenezi, kodi chinthucho chimayipitsidwa?” Ansembe anayankha kuti, “Inde, chimayipitsidwa.”
14 Ipapo Hagai akapindura akati, “‘Ndizvo zvakaita vanhu ava norudzi urwu pamberi pangu,’ ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha. ‘Zvose zvavanoita uye zvose zvavanopa sechibayiro ipapo zvakasvibiswa.
Pamenepo Hagai anati, “‘Ndi mmene zilili ndi anthu awa ndi dziko ili pamaso panga,’ akutero Yehova. ‘Chilichonse amachita ndiponso chilichonse chimene amapereka nʼchodetsedwa.
15 “‘Zvino fungisisai, kubvira pazuva ranhasi, muchidzokera shure, chimbofungai zvazvakanga zvakaita ibwe rimwe richigere kuiswa pamusoro perimwe ibwe mutemberi yaJehovha.
“‘Tsopano muganizire zimenezi kuyambira lero mpaka mʼtsogolo. Ganizirani momwe zinthu zinalili asanayambe kumanga nyumba ya Yehova.
16 Munhu aiti kana achinge asvika pamurwi wezviyero makumi maviri, paingova negumi chete. Munhu aiti kana asvika pachisviniro chewaini achida kuchera zviyero makumi mashanu, kwaingova nezviyero makumi maviri chete.
Pamene munthu ankayembekezera miyeso ya tirigu makumi awiri ankangopeza khumi yokha. Munthu akapita kuti akatunge miyeso makumi asanu ya vinyo mu mtsuko, ankangopeza miyeso makumi awiri yokha.
17 Ndakarova mabasa ose amaoko enyu nenyunje, nokuvhuvha nechimvuramabwe, asi hamuna kutendeukira kwandiri,’ ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
Ndinawononga ntchito yonse ya manja anu ndi chinsikwi, chiwawu ndi matalala, komabe inu simunatembenukire kwa Ine,’ akutero Yehova
18 Kubvira pazuva ranhasi zvichienda mberi, kubvira pazuva ramakumi maviri namana romwedzi wepfumbamwe, fungisisai zuva riya rakateyiwa nheyo dzetemberi yaJehovha. Fungisisai izvozvo:
‘Kuyambira lero tsiku la 24 la mwezi wachisanu ndi chinayi mpaka mʼtsogolo, chonde ganizirani bwino tsiku limene munayika maziko a nyumba ya Yehova. Ganizirani bwino.
19 Ko, muchine mbeu yakasara mudura here? Kusvikira zvino, muzambiringa nomuonde, mutamba nomuorivhi hazvina kubereka michero. “‘Kubvira pazuva ranhasi ndichakuropafadzai.’”
Kodi mʼnkhokwe mwatsala mbewu? Mpaka lero, mpesa ndi mtengo wa mkuyu, makangadza ndi mtengo wa olivi sizinabereke zipatso. “‘Kuyambira lero mpaka mʼtsogolo ndidzakudalitsani.’”
20 Shoko raJehovha rakasvika kuna Hagai kechipiri pazuva ramakumi maviri namana romwedzi richiti,

21 “Udza Zerubhabheri mubati weJudha kuti ndichazungunusa matenga nenyika.
“Uza Zerubabeli, bwanamkubwa wa Yuda, kuti ndidzagwedeza thambo ndi dziko lapansi.
22 Ndichawisira pasi zvigaro zvoushe uye ndichaparadza simba roushe hwavatorwa. Ndichawisira pasi ngoro navafambisi vadzo; mabhiza navatasvi vawo zvichawira pasi, mumwe nomumwe nomunondo wehama yake.
Ndidzagwetsa mipando yaufumu ndi kuwononga mphamvu za maufumu achilendo. Ndidzagubuduza magaleta ndi okwerapo ake; akavalo ndi okwerapo ake adzagwa, aliyense adzaphedwa ndi lupanga la mʼbale wake.
23 “‘Pazuva iroro,’ ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha Wamasimba Ose, ‘ndichakutora iwe, muranda wangu, Zerubhabheri mwanakomana waShearitieri,’ ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, ‘uye ndichakuita sechisimbiso changu, nokuti ndakakusarudza,’ ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha Wamasimba Ose.”
“‘Tsiku limenelo,’ akutero Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, ‘ndidzakutenga, iwe mtumiki wanga Zerubabeli mwana wa Sealatieli,’ akutero Yehova, ‘ndipo ndidzakusandutsa kukhala mphete yanga yolamulira, pakuti ndasankha iwe,’ akutero Yehova Wamphamvuzonse.”
