1 V drugem letu kralja Dareja, v šestem mesecu, na prvi dan meseca, je prišla Gospodova beseda po preroku Ageju k Zerubabélu, Šealtiélovemu sinu, voditelju Juda in k Ješúu, Jocadákovemu sinu, vélikemu duhovniku, rekoč:
In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, in the first day of the month, came the word of Jehovah by Haggai the prophet unto Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, saying,
2 »Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki, rekoč: ›To ljudstvo pravi: ›Čas ni prišel, čas, da bi bila zgrajena Gospodova hiša.‹
Thus speaketh Jehovah of hosts, saying, This people say, It is not the time [for us] to come, the time for Jehovah’s house to be built.
3 Potem je prišla Gospodova beseda po preroku Ageju, rekoč:
Then came the word of Jehovah by Haggai the prophet, saying,
4 › Ali je čas za vas, oh vi, da prebivate v svojih obitih hišah, ta hiša pa leži zapuščena?‹
Is it a time for you yourselves to dwell in your ceiled houses, while this house lieth waste?
5 Zdaj torej tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki: ›Preudarite svoje poti.‹
Now therefore thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Consider your ways.
6 Mnogo ste sejali, prinesli pa malo; jedli ste, toda nimate dovolj; pijete, toda niste nasičeni s pijačo; oblačite se, toda nihče ni ogret; in tisti, ki zasluži plačila, zasluži plačila, da jih daje v torbo z luknjami.‹
Ye have sown much, and bring in little; ye eat, but ye have not enough; ye drink, but ye are not filled with drink; ye clothe you, but there is none warm; and he that earneth wages earneth wages [to put it] into a bag with holes.
7 Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki: ›Preudarite svoje poti.
Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Consider your ways.
8 Pojdite gor na goro, pripeljite les, zgradite hišo in razveseljeval se bom v njej in jaz bom proslavljen, ‹ govori Gospod.
Go up to the mountain, and bring wood, and build the house; and I will take pleasure in it, and I will be glorified, saith Jehovah.
9 Precej ste iskali in glejte, postalo je malo; in ko ste to prinesli domov, sem pihnil na to. Zakaj?‹ govori Gospod nad bojevniki. ›Zaradi moje hiše, ki je opustošena, vi pa tečete vsakdo za svojo lastno hišo.
Ye looked for much, and, lo, it came to little; and when ye brought it home, I did blow upon it. Why? saith Jehovah of hosts. Because of my house that lieth waste, while ye run every man to his own house.
10 Zatorej je nebo nad vami zadržano pred roso in zemlja je zadržana pred njenim sadom.
Therefore for your sake the heavens withhold the dew, and the earth withholdeth its fruit.
11 In jaz sem poklical sušo na deželo, na gore, na žito, na novo vino, na olje in na to, kar prinašajo tla, na ljudi, na živino in na ves trud rok.‹«
And I called for a drought upon the land, and upon the mountains, and upon the grain, and upon the new wine, and upon the oil, and upon that which the ground bringeth forth, and upon men, and upon cattle, and upon all the labor of the hands.
12 Potem sta Zerubabél, Šealtiélov sin in Ješúa, Jocadákov sin, véliki duhovnik, z vsem preostankom ljudstva, ubogala glas Gospoda, svojega Boga in besede preroka Ageja, kakor mu jih je poslal Gospod, njihov Bog in ljudstvo se je balo pred Gospodom.
Then Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, with all the remnant of the people, obeyed the voice of Jehovah their God, and the words of Haggai the prophet, as Jehovah their God had sent him; and the people did fear before Jehovah.
13 Potem je spregovoril Agej, Gospodov poslanec v Gospodovi poslanici ljudstvu, rekoč: ›Jaz sem z vami, ‹ govori Gospod.
Then spake Haggai Jehovah’s messenger in Jehovah’s message unto the people, saying, I am with you, saith Jehovah.
14 In Gospod je razvnel duha Zerubabéla, Šealtiélovega sina, voditelja Judeje in duha Ješúa, Jocadákovega sina, vélikega duhovnika in duha vsega preostanka ljudstva in prišli so in delali v hiši Gospoda nad bojevniki, svojega Boga,
And Jehovah stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people; and they came and did work on the house of Jehovah of hosts, their God,
15 v štiriindvajsetem dnevu šestega meseca, v drugem letu kralja Dareja.
in the four and twentieth day of the month, in the sixth [month], in the second year of Darius the king.
