< Haggai 2 >

1 Ní ọjọ́ kọkànlélógún oṣù keje, ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa wá nípasẹ̀ wòlíì Hagai wí pé,
And in the seventh month, on the twenty-first of the month, the word of the Lord came, by the hand of Haggai the prophet, saying:
2 “Sọ fún Serubbabeli ọmọ Ṣealitieli, baálẹ̀ Juda, àti Joṣua ọmọ Josadaki, olórí àlùfáà àti àwọn ènìyàn yòókù. Béèrè lọ́wọ́ wọn pé,
Speak to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, the governor of Judah, and to Jesus the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and to the remainder of the people, saying:
3 ‘Ta ni nínú yín tí ó kù tí ó sì ti rí ilé yìí ní ògo rẹ̀ àkọ́kọ́? Báwo ni ó ṣe ri sí yín nísinsin yìí? Ǹjẹ́ kò dàbí asán lójú yín?
Who is left among you, who saw this house in its first glory? And how do you see it now? Is it not, in comparison to that, as nothing in your eyes?
4 Ṣùgbọ́n nísinsin yìí, múra gírí, ìwọ Serubbabeli,’ ni Olúwa wí. ‘Múra gírí, ìwọ Joṣua ọmọ Josadaki, olórí àlùfáà. Ẹ sì múra gírí gbogbo ẹ̀yin ènìyàn ilẹ̀ náà,’ ni Olúwa wí, ‘kí ẹ sì ṣiṣẹ́. Nítorí èmi wà pẹ̀lú yín,’ ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí.
And now be strengthened, Zerubbabel, says the Lord. And be strengthened, Jesus the son of Jehozadak, the high priest. And be strengthened, all people of the land, says the Lord of hosts. For I am with you, says the Lord of hosts.
5 ‘Èyí ni ohun tí Èmi fi bá a yín dá májẹ̀mú nígbà tí ẹ jáde kúrò ní Ejibiti, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Ẹ̀mí ì mi sì wà pẹ̀lú yín. Ẹ má ṣe bẹ̀rù.’
And act according to the word that I planted with you when you departed from the land of Egypt. And my Spirit will be in your midst. Do not be afraid.
6 “Báyìí ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí pé, ‘Láìpẹ́ jọjọ, Èmi yóò mi àwọn ọrun àti ayé, Òkun àti ìyàngbẹ ilẹ̀ lẹ́ẹ̀kan sí i.
For thus says the Lord of hosts: There is yet one brief time, and I will move heaven and earth, and the sea and the dry land.
7 Èmi yóò mi gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè, ìfẹ́ gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè yóò fà sí tẹmpili yìí, Èmi yóò sì kún ilé yìí pẹ̀lú ògo,’ ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí.
And I will move all nations. And the Desired of all nations will arrive. And I will fill this house with glory, says the Lord of hosts.
8 ‘Tèmi ni fàdákà àti wúrà,’ ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí.
Mine is the silver, and mine is the gold, says the Lord of hosts.
9 ‘Ògo ìkẹyìn ilé yìí yóò pọ̀ ju ti ìṣáájú lọ,’ ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí, ‘Àti ní ìhín yìí ni Èmi ó sì fi àlàáfíà fún ni,’ ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí.”
Great shall be the glory of this house, the last more than the first, says the Lord of hosts. And in this place, I will bestow peace, says the Lord of hosts.
10 Ní ọjọ́ kẹrìnlélógún oṣù kẹsànán ní ọdún kejì Dariusi, ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ wòlíì Hagai wá pé,
On the twenty-fourth of the ninth month, in the second year of king Darius, the word of the Lord came to Haggai the prophet, saying:
11 “Báyìí ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí, ‘Béèrè lọ́wọ́ àwọn àlùfáà ohun tí òfin wí pé:
Thus says the Lord of hosts: the priests question the law, saying:
12 Bí ẹnìkan bá gbé ẹran mímọ́ ní ìṣẹ́tí aṣọ rẹ̀, tí ìṣẹ́tí aṣọ rẹ̀ kan àkàrà tàbí ọbẹ̀, wáìnì, òróró tàbí oúnjẹ mìíràn, ǹjẹ́ yóò ha jẹ́ mímọ́ bí?’” Àwọn àlùfáà sì dáhùn wí pé, “Bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́.”
If a man will have carried sanctified flesh in the pocket of his garment, and the top of it touches his bread, or appetizer, or wine, or oil, or any food, shall it be sanctified? But the priests responded by saying, “No.”
13 Nígbà náà ni Hagai wí pé, “Bí ẹnìkan tí ó jẹ́ aláìmọ́ nípa fífi ara kan òkú bá fi ara kan ọ̀kan lára nǹkan wọ̀nyí, ǹjẹ́ yóò ha jẹ́ aláìmọ́?” Àwọn àlùfáà sì dáhùn wí pé, “Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, yóò jẹ́ aláìmọ́.”
And Haggai said, “If the polluted in soul will have touched any of all these things, shall it be contaminated?” And the priests responded and said, “It shall be contaminated.”
14 Nígbà náà ni Hagai dáhùn ó sì wí pé, “‘Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ènìyàn wọ̀nyí rí, bẹ́ẹ̀ sì ni orílẹ̀-èdè yìí rí níwájú mi,’ ni Olúwa wí. ‘Bẹ́ẹ̀ sì ni olúkúlùkù iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ wọn; èyí tí wọ́n sì fi rú ẹbọ níbẹ̀ jẹ́ aláìmọ́.
And Haggai answered and he said: Such is this people, and such is this nation before my face, says the Lord, and such is all the work of their hands. And so all that they have offered there has been contaminated.
15 “‘Ǹjẹ́ nísinsin yìí, ẹ ro èyí dáradára láti òní yìí lọ, ẹ kíyèsi bí nǹkan ṣe rí tẹ́lẹ̀, a to òkúta kan lé orí èkejì ní tẹmpili Olúwa.
And now, consider in your hearts, from this day and beyond, before stone may be placed upon stone in the temple of the Lord:
16 Nígbà tí ẹnikẹ́ni bá dé ibi òkìtì òsùwọ̀n ogun, mẹ́wàá péré ni yóò ba níbẹ̀. Nígbà tí ẹnikẹ́ni bá dé ibi ìfúntí wáìnì láti wọn àádọ́ta ìwọ̀n, ogún péré ni yóò ba níbẹ̀.
when you approached a pile of twenty measures, and they became ten, and you entered to the press, to press out fifty bottles, and they became twenty,
17 Mo fi ìrẹ̀dànù, ìmúwòdù àti yìnyín bá gbogbo iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ yín jẹ; síbẹ̀ ẹ̀yin kò yípadà sí ọ̀dọ̀ mi,’ ni Olúwa wí.
how I struck you with a burning wind, and a mildew, and a hailstorm, all the works of your hand, yet there was no one among you who returned to me, says the Lord.
18 ‘Láti òní lọ, láti ọjọ́ kẹrìnlélógún oṣù kẹsànán yìí kí ẹ kíyèsi, kí ẹ sì rò ó dáradára, ọjọ́ ti a fi ìpìlẹ̀ tẹmpili Olúwa lélẹ̀, rò ó dáradára.
Set your hearts from this day and into the future, from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, from the day that the foundations of the temple of the Lord have been uttered, and place it upon your heart.
19 Ǹjẹ́ èso ha wà nínú abà bí? Títí di àkókò yìí, àjàrà àti igi ọ̀pọ̀tọ́ àti pomegiranate, àti igi olifi kò ì tí ì so èso kankan. “‘Láti òní lọ ni èmi yóò bùkún fún un yin.’”
Has the seed been germinated yet? And has the vine, and the fig tree, and the pomegranate, and the olive tree still not flourished? From this day on, I will bless you.
20 Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa sì tún tọ Hagai wá nígbà kejì, ní ọjọ́ kẹrìnlélógún oṣù náà pé,
And the word of the Lord came a second time to Haggai, on the twenty-fourth of the month, saying:
21 “Sọ fún Serubbabeli baálẹ̀ Juda pé èmi yóò mi àwọn ọ̀run àti ayé.
Speak to Zerubbabel the governor of Judah, saying: I will move both heaven and earth.
22 Èmi yóò bi ìtẹ́ àwọn ìjọba ṣubú, Èmi yóò sì pa agbára àwọn aláìkọlà run, Èmi yóò sì dojú àwọn kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun dé, àti àwọn tí ń gùn wọ́n; ẹṣin àti àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣin yóò ṣubú; olúkúlùkù nípa idà arákùnrin rẹ̀.”
And I will overturn the throne of kingdoms, and I will crush the strength of the kingdom of the Gentiles. And I will overturn the four-horse chariot, and its rider; and the horses and their riders shall be brought down, a man by the sword of his brother.
23 Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí pé, “Ní ọjọ́ náà, ìwọ ìránṣẹ́ mi Serubbabeli ọmọ Ṣealitieli, Èmi yóò mú ọ, Èmi yóò sì sọ ọ di bí òrùka èdìdì mi, nítorí mo ti yan ọ, ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí.”
In that day, says the Lord of hosts, I will take you, Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, my servant, says the Lord, and will set you like a seal, for I have chosen you, says the Lord of hosts.
