1 Ní ọdún kejì ọba Dariusi ní ọjọ́ kìn-ín-ní oṣù kẹfà, ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa wá nípasẹ̀ wòlíì Hagai sí Serubbabeli ọmọ Ṣealitieli, baálẹ̀ Juda, àti sọ́dọ̀ Joṣua ọmọ Josadaki, olórí àlùfáà.
In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, in the first day of the month, hath a word of Jehovah been by the hand of Haggai the prophet, unto Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and unto Joshua son of Josedech, the high priest, saying:
2 Báyìí ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí: “Àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí wí pé, ‘Kò tí ì tó àkókò láti kọ́ ilé Olúwa.’”
Thus spake Jehovah of Hosts, saying: This people! — they have said, 'The time hath not come, The time the house of Jehovah [is] to be built.'
3 Nígbà náà ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa wá láti ọ̀dọ̀ wòlíì Hagai wí pé,
And there is a word of Jehovah by the hand of Haggai the prophet, saying:
4 “Ǹjẹ́ àkókò ni fún ẹ̀yin fúnra yín láti máa gbé ní ilé tí a ṣe ní ọ̀ṣọ́ nígbà tí ilé yìí wà ni ahoro?”
Is it time for you — you! To dwell in your covered houses, And this house to lie waste?
5 Nísìnsinyìí, èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí: “Ẹ kíyèsi ọ̀nà yín.
And now, thus said Jehovah of Hosts, Set your heart to your ways.
6 Ẹ̀yin ti gbìn ohun ti ó pọ̀. Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin kórè díẹ̀ níbẹ̀. Ẹ̀yin jẹun, ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin kò yó. Ẹ̀yin mu ṣùgbọ́n kò tẹ́ ẹ yín lọ́run; ẹ̀yin wọ aṣọ, ṣùgbọ́n kò mú òtútù yin lọ; ẹyin gba owó iṣẹ́ ṣùgbọ́n ẹ ń gbà á sínú ajádìí àpò.”
Ye have sown much, and brought in little, To eat, and not to satiety, To drink, and not to drunkenness, To clothe, and none hath heat, And he who is hiring himself out, Is hiring himself for a bag pierced through.
7 Báyìí ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí: “Ẹ kíyèsi ọ̀nà yín.
Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: Set your heart to your ways.
8 Ẹ gun orí àwọn òkè ńlá lọ, kí ẹ sì mú igi wá pẹ̀lú yín. Kí ẹ sì kọ́ ilé náà, kí inú mi bà le è dùn sí i, kí a sì yín mí lógo,” ni Olúwa wí.
Go up the mountain, and ye have brought in wood, And build the house, and I am pleased with it. And I am honoured, said Jehovah.
9 “Ẹyin ti ń retí ọ̀pọ̀, ṣùgbọ́n kíyèsi i, o yípadà sí díẹ̀. Ohun tí ẹ̀yin mú wa ilé, èmi sì fẹ́ ẹ dànù. Nítorí kí ni?” ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí. “Nítorí ilé mi tí ó dahoro; tí olúkúlùkù yín sì ń sáré fún ilé ara rẹ̀.
Looking for much, and lo, little, And ye brought [it] home, and I blew on it, Wherefore? — an affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts, Because of My house that is waste, And ye are running — each to his house,
10 Nítorí yín ni àwọn ọ̀run ṣe dá ìrì dúró tí ilẹ̀ sì kọ̀ láti mu èso jáde.
Therefore, over you refrained have the heavens from dew, And the land hath refrained its increase.
11 Mo sì ti pe ọ̀dá sórí ilẹ̀ àti sórí àwọn òkè ńlá, sórí ọkà àti sórí wáìnì tuntun, sórí òróró àti sórí ohun ti ilẹ̀ ń mú jáde, sórí ènìyàn, sórí ẹran àti sórí gbogbo iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ yín.”
And I proclaim draught on the land, And on the mountains, and on the corn, And on the new wine, and on the oil, And on what the ground doth bring forth, And on man, and on beast, And on all labour of the hands.'
12 Nígbà náà ni Serubbabeli ọmọ Ṣealitieli, Joṣua ọmọ Josadaki, olórí àlùfáà pẹ̀lú gbogbo ènìyàn ìyókù, gba ohùn Olúwa Ọlọ́run wọn gbọ́ àti ọ̀rọ̀ wòlíì Hagai, nítorí Olúwa Ọlọ́run ni ó rán an. Àwọn ènìyàn sì bẹ̀rù Olúwa.
And Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, and Joshua son of Josedech, the high priest, and all the remnant of the people, do hearken to the voice of Jehovah their God, and unto the words of Haggai the prophet, as Jehovah their God had sent him, and the people are afraid of the face of Jehovah.
13 Nígbà náà ni Hagai ìránṣẹ́ Olúwa ń jíṣẹ́ Olúwa fún àwọn ènìyàn pé, “Èmí wà pẹ̀lú yín,” ni Olúwa wí.
And Haggai, messenger of Jehovah, in messages of Jehovah, speaketh to the people, saying: 'I [am] with you, an affirmation of Jehovah.'
14 Nítorí náà, Olúwa ru ẹ̀mí Serubbabeli ọmọ Ṣealitieli sókè, baálẹ̀ Juda àti ẹ̀mí Joṣua ọmọ Josadaki, olórí àlùfáà àti ẹ̀mí gbogbo ènìyàn ìyókù. Wọ́n sì wá, wọ́n sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní ṣiṣẹ́ lórí ilé Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun Ọlọ́run wọn,
And Jehovah doth stir up the spirit of Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua son of Josedech, the high priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people, and they come in, and do work in the house of Jehovah of Hosts their God,

in the twenty and fourth day of the sixth month, in the second year of Darius the king.
