< Haggai 1 >

1 In the secounde yeer of Darius, kyng of Persis, in the sixte monethe, in the firste dai of the monethe, the word of the Lord was maad in the hond of Aggey, profete, to Sorobabel, sone of Salatiel, duyk of Juda, and to Jhesu, the greet preest, sone of Josedech,
大流士王第二年六月初一日,耶和華的話藉先知哈該向猶大省長撒拉鐵的兒子所羅巴伯和約撒答的兒子大祭司約書亞說:
2 and seide, The Lord of oostis seith these thingis, and spekith, This puple seith, Yit cometh not the tyme of the hous of the Lord to be bildid.
萬軍之耶和華如此說:「這百姓說,建造耶和華殿的時候尚未來到。」
3 And the word of the Lord was maad in the hond of Aggei,
那時耶和華的話臨到先知哈該說:
4 profete, and seide, Whether it is tyme to you, that ye dwelle in housis couplid with tymbir, and this hous be forsakun?
「這殿仍然荒涼,你們自己還住天花板的房屋嗎?
5 And now the Lord of oostis seith these thingis, Putte ye youre hertis on youre weies.
現在萬軍之耶和華如此說:你們要省察自己的行為。
6 Ye han sowe myche, and brouyte in litil; ye han etun, and ben not fillid; ye han drunke, and ye ben not ful of drynk; ye hiliden you, and ye ben not maad hoote; and he that gaderide hiris, sente tho in to a sak holid, ether brokun.
你們撒的種多,收的卻少;你們吃,卻不得飽;喝,卻不得足;穿衣服,卻不得暖;得工錢的,將工錢裝在破漏的囊中。」
7 The Lord of oostis seith these thingis, Putte ye youre hertis on youre weies.
萬軍之耶和華如此說:「你們要省察自己的行為。
8 Stie ye vp in to the munteyn, bere ye trees, and bilde ye an hous; and it schal be acceptable to me, and Y schal be glorified, seith the Lord.
你們要上山取木料,建造這殿,我就因此喜樂,且得榮耀。這是耶和華說的。
9 Ye bihelden to more, and lo! it is maad lesse; and ye brouyten in to the hous, and Y blew it out. For what cause, seith the Lord of oostis? for myn hous is desert, and ye hasten ech man in to his hous.
你們盼望多得,所得的卻少;你們收到家中,我就吹去。這是為甚麼呢?因為我的殿荒涼,你們各人卻顧自己的房屋。這是萬軍之耶和華說的。
10 For this thing heuenes ben forbedun, that thei schulden not yyue dew on you; and the erthe is forbodun, that it schulde not yyue his buriownyng.
所以為你們的緣故,天就不降甘露,地也不出土產。
11 And Y clepide drynesse on erthe, and on mounteyns, and on wheete, and on wyn, and on oile, and what euer thingis the erthe bryngith forth; and on men, and on beestis, and on al labour of hondis.
我命乾旱臨到地土、山岡、五穀、新酒,和油,並地上的出產、人民、牲畜,以及人手一切勞碌得來的。」
12 And Sorobabel, the sone of Salatiel, and Jhesus, the greet preest, the sone of Josedech, and alle relifs of the puple, herden the vois of her God, and the wordis of Aggei, the profete, as the Lord God of hem sente him to hem; and al the puple dredde of the face of the Lord.
那時,撒拉鐵的兒子所羅巴伯和約撒答的兒子大祭司約書亞,並剩下的百姓,都聽從耶和華-他們上帝的話和先知哈該奉耶和華-他們上帝差來所說的話;百姓也在耶和華面前存敬畏的心。
13 And Aggei, a messanger of the Lord, of the messangeris of the Lord, seide to the puple, and spak, Y am with you, seith the Lord.
耶和華的使者哈該奉耶和華差遣對百姓說:「耶和華說:我與你們同在。」
14 And the Lord reiside the spirit of Sorobabel, the sone of Salatiel, duik of Juda, and the spirit of Jhesu, the greet preest, the sone of Josedech, and the spirit of the relifs of al puple; and thei entriden, and maden werk in the hous of the Lord of oostis, her God.
耶和華激動猶大省長撒拉鐵的兒子所羅巴伯和約撒答的兒子大祭司約書亞,並剩下之百姓的心,他們就來為萬軍之耶和華-他們上帝的殿做工。
15 In the foure and twentithe dai of the monethe, in the sixte monethe, in the secunde yeer of kyng Darius.
這是在大流士王第二年六月二十四日。
