< حَجَّي 2 >

فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلسَّابِعِ فِي ٱلْحَادِي وَٱلْعِشْرِينَ مِنَ ٱلشَّهْرِ، كَانَتْ كَلِمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ عَنْ يَدِ حَجَّي ٱلنَّبِيِّ قَائِلًا: ١ 1
In the seventh month on the twenty-first day of the month, the word of Yahweh came by the hand of Haggai the prophet, saying,
«كَلِّمْ زَرُبَّابِلَ بْنَ شَأَلْتِيئِيلَ وَالِيَ يَهُوذَا، وَيَهُوشَعَ بْنِ يَهُوصَادِقَ ٱلْكَاهِنِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ وَبَقِيَّةِ ٱلشَّعْبِ قَائِلًا: ٢ 2
“Speak to the governor of Judah, Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, and to the high priest Joshua son of Jehozadak, and to the remnant of the people. Say,
مَنِ ٱلْبَاقِي فِيكُمُ ٱلَّذِي رَأَى هَذَا ٱلْبَيْتَ فِي مَجْدِهِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ؟ وَكَيْفَ تَنْظُرُونَهُ ٱلْآنَ؟ أَمَا هُوَ فِي أَعْيُنِكُمْ كَلَا شَيْءٍ! ٣ 3
'Who is left among you who saw this house in its former glory? How do you see it now? Is it not like nothing in your eyes?
فَٱلْآنَ تَشَدَّدْ يَا زَرُبَّابِلُ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. وَتَشَدَّدْ يَا يَهُوشَعُ بْنُ يَهُوصَادِقَ ٱلْكَاهِنُ ٱلْعَظِيمُ، وَتَشَدَّدُوا يَا جَمِيعَ شَعْبِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. وَٱعْمَلُوا فَإِنِّي مَعَكُمْ، يَقُولُ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ. ٤ 4
Now, be strong, Zerubbabel!—this is Yahweh's declaration— and be strong, high priest Joshua son of Jehozadak; and be strong, all you people in the land!—this is Yahweh's declaration— and work, for I am with you!—this is the declaration of Yahweh of hosts.
حَسَبَ ٱلْكَلَامِ ٱلَّذِي عَاهَدْتُكُمْ بِهِ عِنْدَ خُرُوجِكُمْ مِنْ مِصْرَ، وَرُوحِي قَائِمٌ فِي وَسَطِكُمْ. لَا تَخَافُوا. ٥ 5
This is the covenant that I established with you when you came out of Egypt, and my Spirit remains with you. Do not fear!
لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ: هِيَ مَرَّةٌ، بَعْدَ قَلِيلٍ، فَأُزَلْزِلُ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ وَٱلْبَحْرَ وَٱلْيَابِسَةَ، ٦ 6
For Yahweh of hosts says this: In a little while I will once again shake the heavens and the earth, the sea and the dry land!
وَأُزَلْزِلُ كُلَّ ٱلْأُمَمِ. وَيَأْتِي مُشْتَهَى كُلِّ ٱلْأُمَمِ، فَأَمْلَأُ هَذَا ٱلْبَيْتَ مَجْدًا، قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ. ٧ 7
I will shake every nation, and every nation will bring their precious things to me, and I will fill this house with glory, says Yahweh of hosts.
لِي ٱلْفِضَّةُ وَلِي ٱلذَّهَبُ، يَقُولُ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ. ٨ 8
The silver and gold are mine!—this is the declaration of Yahweh of hosts.
مَجْدُ هَذَا ٱلْبَيْتِ ٱلْأَخِيرِ يَكُونُ أَعْظَمَ مِنْ مَجْدِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ، قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ. وَفِي هَذَا ٱلْمَكَانِ أُعْطِي ٱلسَّلَامَ، يَقُولُ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ». ٩ 9
The glory of this house will be greater in the future than at the beginning, says Yahweh of hosts, and I will give peace in this place!—this is the declaration of Yahweh of hosts.”
فِي ٱلرَّابِعِ وَٱلْعِشْرِينَ مِنَ ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلتَّاسِعِ، فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلثَّانِيَةِ لِدَارِيُوسَ، كَانَتْ كَلِمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ عَنْ يَدِ حَجَّي ٱلنَّبِيِّ قَائِلًا: ١٠ 10
On the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, in the second year of Darius, the word of Yahweh came by Haggai the prophet, saying,
«هَكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ: اِسْأَلِ ٱلْكَهَنَةَ عَنِ ٱلشَّرِيعَةِ قَائِلًا: ١١ 11
“Yahweh of hosts says this: Ask the priests concerning the law, and say,
إِنْ حَمَلَ إِنْسَانٌ لَحْمًا مُقَدَّسًا فِي طَرَفِ ثَوْبِهِ وَمَسَّ بِطَرَفِهِ خُبْزًا أَوْ طَبِيخًا أَوْ خَمْرًا أَوْ زَيْتًا أَوْ طَعَامًا مَّا، فَهَلْ يَتَقَدَّسُ؟» فَأَجَابَ ٱلْكَهَنَةُ وَقَالُوا: «لَا». ١٢ 12
'If a man carries meat that is set apart to Yahweh in the fold of his garment, and the fold touches bread or stew, wine or oil, or any kind of food, does it become holy?'” The priests answered and said, “No.”
فَقَالَ حَجَّي: «إِنْ كَانَ ٱلْمُنَجَّسُ بِمَيْتٍ يَمَسُّ شَيْئًا مِنْ هَذِهِ، فَهَلْ يَتَنَجَّسُ؟» فَأَجَابَ ٱلْكَهَنَةُ وَقَالُوا: «يَتَنَجَّسُ». ١٣ 13
Then Haggai said, “If someone who is unclean because of death touches any of these things, do they become unclean?” The priests answered and said, “Yes, they become unclean.”
فَأَجَابَ حَجَّي وَقَالَ: «هَكَذَا هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبُ، وَهَكَذَا هَذِهِ ٱلْأُمَّةُ قُدَّامِي، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، وَهَكَذَا كُلُّ عَمَلِ أَيْدِيهِمْ وَمَا يُقَرِّبُونَهُ هُنَاكَ. هُوَ نَجِسٌ. ١٤ 14
So Haggai answered and said, “So it is with this people and this nation before me!—this is Yahweh's declaration—and so it is with everything done by their hands. What they offer to me is unclean!
وَٱلْآنَ فَٱجْعَلُوا قَلْبَكُمْ مِنْ هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ فَرَاجِعًا، قَبْلَ وَضْعِ حَجَرٍ عَلَى حَجَرٍ فِي هَيْكَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ. ١٥ 15
So now, think in your minds about the past leading up to this very day. Before stone was placed upon stone in the temple of Yahweh,
مُذْ تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ كَانَ أَحَدُكُمْ يَأْتِي إِلَى عَرَمَةِ عِشْرِينَ فَكَانَتْ عَشَرَةً. أَتَى إِلَى حَوْضِ ٱلْمِعْصَرَةِ لِيَغْرُفَ خَمْسِينَ فُورَةً فَكَانَتْ عِشْرِينَ. ١٦ 16
how was it then? When you came to a heap of twenty measures of grain, there were only ten; and when you came to the wine vat to draw out fifty measures, there were only twenty.
قَدْ ضَرَبْتُكُمْ بِٱللَّفْحِ وَبِالْيَرَقَانِ وَبِالْبَرَدِ فِي كُلِّ عَمَلِ أَيْدِيكُمْ، وَمَا رَجَعْتُمْ إِلَيَّ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. ١٧ 17
I afflicted you and all the work of your hands with blight and mildew, but you still did not turn to me—this is Yahweh's declaration.
فَٱجْعَلُوا قَلْبَكُمْ مِنْ هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ فَصَاعِدًا، مِنَ ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلرَّابِعِ وَٱلْعِشْرِينَ مِنَ ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلتَّاسِعِ، مِنَ ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلَّذِي فِيهِ تَأَسَّسَ هَيْكَلُ ٱلرَّبِّ، ٱجْعَلُوا قَلْبَكُمْ. ١٨ 18
Consider from this day forward, from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, from the day that the foundation of Yahweh's temple was laid. Consider it!
هَلِ ٱلْبَذْرُ فِي ٱلْأَهْرَاءِ بَعْدُ؟ وَٱلْكَرْمُ وَٱلتِّينُ وَٱلرُّمَّانُ وَٱلزَّيْتُونُ لَمْ يَحْمِلْ بَعْدُ. فَمِنْ هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ أُبَارِكُ». ١٩ 19
Is there still seed in the storehouse? The vine, the fig tree, the pomegranate, and the olive tree have not produced! But from this day will I bless you!”
وَصَارَتْ كَلِمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ ثَانِيَةً إِلَى حَجَّي، فِي ٱلرَّابِعِ وَٱلْعِشْرِينَ مِنَ ٱلشَّهْرِ قَائِلًا: ٢٠ 20
Then the word of Yahweh came a second time to Haggai on the twenty-fourth day of the month and said,
«كَلِّمْ زَرُبَّابِلَ وَالِيَ يَهُوذَا قَائِلًا: إِنِّي أُزَلْزِلُ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ، ٢١ 21
“Speak to the governor of Judah, Zerubbabel, and say, 'I will shake the heavens and the earth.
وَأَقْلِبُ كُرْسِيَّ ٱلْمَمَالِكِ، وَأُبِيدُ قُوَّةَ مَمَالِكِ ٱلْأُمَمِ، وَأَقْلِبُ ٱلْمَرْكَبَاتِ وَٱلرَّاكِبِينَ فِيهَا، وَيَنْحَطُّ ٱلْخَيْلُ وَرَاكِبُوهَا، كُلٌّ مِنْهَا بِسَيْفِ أَخِيهِ. ٢٢ 22
For I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms and destroy the strength of the kingdoms of the nations! I will overthrow the chariots and their riders; the horses and their riders will fall down, each one because of his brother's sword.
فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ، يَقُولُ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ، آخُذُكَ يَا زَرُبَّابِلُ عَبْدِي ٱبْنُ شَأَلْتِيئِيلَ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، وَأَجْعَلُكَ كَخَاتِمٍ، لِأَنِّي قَدِ ٱخْتَرْتُكَ، يَقُولُ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ». ٢٣ 23
On that day—this is the declaration of Yahweh of hosts—I will take you, Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, as my servant—this is Yahweh's declaration. I will make you like a signet ring, for I have chosen you! —this is the declaration of Yahweh of hosts!'”
