Malachi 3

1 Behold I send my angel, and he shall prepare the way before my face. And presently the Lord, whom you seek, and the angel of the testament, whom you desire, shall come to his temple. Behold he cometh, saith the Lord of hosts.

Hina Gode Bagadedafa da agoane adole iaha, “Na da Na sia: sia: na ahoasu dunu, Na logo fodoma: ne, amo asunasimu. Amasea, Hina Gode amo dilia hogoi helesa, E da hedolodafa Ea Debolo diasuga doaga: mu. Amo sia: sia: na ahoasu dunu dilia ba: mu hanai gala, amo da misini, Na gousa: su amo dilima sisia: mu.

2 And who shall be able to think of the day of his coming? and who shall stand to see him? for he is like a refining fire, and like the fuller’s herb:

Be e da masea, nowa da moloiwane leloma: bela: ? E da aliaguda: lalebe ba: sea, nowa da mae bogole esaloma: bela: ? E da nigima: doga: su liligi gasa bagade agoai ba: mu, amola lalu bagade amo da silifa amola gouli ledo fadegasu agoane ba: mu.

3 And he shall sit refining and cleansing the silver, and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and shall refine them as gold, and as silver, and they shall offer sacrifices to the Lord in justice.

E da dunu amo da silifa amola gouli amoga ledo doga: su, amo defele e da fofada: musa: misunu. Amo silifa amola gouli hahamosu dunu da silifa amola gouli amoga ledo doga: sa, amo defele Hina Gode Ea sia: sia: na ahoasu dunu da gobele salasu dunu ilima ledo doga: sea, ilia da gobele salasu noga: idafa bu gaguli misunu.

4 And the sacrifice of Juda and of Jerusalem shall please the Lord, as in the days of old, and in the ancient years.

Amasea, Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade dunu amola Yuda fi dunu huluane da Hina Godema gobele salasu liligi gaguli masea, Hina Gode da musa: agoane iasu amoma hahawane ba: mu.

5 And I will come to you in judgment, and will be a speedy witness against sorcerers, and adulterers, and false swearers, and them that oppress the hireling in his wages; the widows, and the fatherless: and oppress the stranger, and have not feared me, saith the Lord of hosts.

Hina Gode Bagadedafa da amane sia: sa, “Na da dilima aliaguda: lalebe ba: sea, fofada: mu galebe. Na da wadela: i hamosu dunuma fofada: mu amo fefedoasu dunu, inia uda adole lasu dunu, ogogosu dunu, nowa da ea hawa: hamosu dunuma ea bidi imunu sia: i amo hame iaha, nowa da didalo, guluba: mano amola ga fi ilima wadela: le hamosu dunu amola Nama hame nodosu dunu, amo huluane ilima Na da fofada: mu,” Hina Gode da amane sia: sa.

6 For I am the Lord, and I change not: and you the sons of Jacob are not consumed.

“Na da Hina Godedafa! Na da hame afadenesa. Amaiba: le, dilia Ya: igobe egaga fi mogili da hame fisi, esalebe ba: sa.

7 For from the days of your fathers you have departed from my ordinances, and have not kept them: Return to me, and I will return to you, saith the Lord of hosts. And you have said: Wherein shall we return?

Dilia da dilia aowalali defele, Na Sema amo higabeba: le, wadela: lesi dagoi. Be wali dilia Nama sinidigima. Amasea, Na amola da dilima sinidigimu. Be dilia da Nama adole ba: sa, ‘Ninia da habodane Dima sinidigima: bela: ?’

8 Shall a man afflict God? for you afflict me. And you have said: Wherein do we afflict thee? in tithes and in firstfruits.

Na da dilima agoane adole ba: sa, ‘Godema ogogosu hamomu da defeala: ?’ Hame mabu! Amo da defea hame galebe. Be dilia da Nama ogogosu hou hamonana. Be dilia da Nama adole ba: sa, ‘Ninia da Dima habodane ogogosu hou hamosala: ?’ Na da dilima bu adole iaha, ‘Dilia Nama iabe, amo ‘daide’ (dilia gagui nabuane momogili, afae Nama iaha), amola hahawane udigili iasu hou amo ganodini Nama ogogosa.’

9 And you are cursed with want, and you afflict me, even the whole nation of you.

Isala: ili dunu fi huluanedafa da Nama ogogole hedebeba: le, Na gagabusu da ilima aligisa.

10 Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in my house, and try me in this, saith the Lord: if I open not unto you the flood-gates of heaven, and pour you out a blessing even to abundance.

Be dilia ogogosu hedesu fisili, “daide” liligi huluanedafa amo Debolo diasuga gaguli misa. Amasea, Debolo diasu ganodini, ha: i manu defele agoane da ba: mu. Nama adoba: le ba: ma. Amasea, Na da Hebene logo doasili, hahawane dogolegesu hou bagadedafa amo dilima gugudili sogadigimu. Amasea, dilia da liligi noga: idafa labeba: le, lelegesu diasu da baligili nabaidafa ba: mu.

11 And I will rebuke for your sakes the devourer, and he shall not spoil the fruit of your land: neither shall the vine in the field be barren, saith the Lord of hosts.

Na da sia: beba: le, danuba: da dilia ha: i manu bugi amo hame wadela: lesimu. Amola dilia waini efe da waini fage bagohame legebe ba: mu.

12 And all nations shall call you blessed: for you shall be a delightful land, saith the Lord of hosts.

Amasea, osobo bagade fifi asi gala dunu huluane da dilia da Gode Ea hahawane dogolegei fi amo sia: mu. Bai dilia soge da fimu noga: i soge ba: mu.

13 Your words have been unsufferable to me, saith the Lord.

Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Dilia da Na hou amoma lasogole bagadewane sia: su. Be dilia da agoane adole ba: sa, ‘Ninia da Dia hou olelema: ne adi sia: bela: ?’

14 And you have said: What have we spoken against thee? You have said: He laboureth in vain that serveth God, and what profit is it that we have kept his ordinances, and that we have walked sorrowful before the Lord of hosts?

Dilia da amane sia: su, ‘Gode Ea hawa: hamosu hamomu da hamedei. Ninia Hina Gode Bagadedafa Ea sia: amoga fa: no bobogemu amola Ema sinidigima: ne fofada: ne, asigi sia: sia: mu da hamedei liligi agoai galebe.

15 Wherefore now we call the proud people happy, for they that work wickedness are built up, and they have tempted God and are preserved.

Ninia ba: loba, gasa fi dunu ilia fawane da hahawane esala. Wadela: i dunu da hahawane liligi bagade gagusa. Amola, ilia da Godema wadela: i adoba: su hou hamonana, amola Gode da ilima se hame iaha,’ dilia da agoane sia: sa.”

16 Then they that feared the Lord spoke every one with his neighbour: and the Lord gave ear, and heard it: and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that fear the Lord, and think on his name.

Amasea, Hina Godema beda: iwane dawa: su dunu da gilisili sia: dasu. Amola Hina Gode da ilia sia: dasu nabi dagoi. Amola E ba: ma: ne, a:igele dunu da buga ganodini, dunu amola uda huluane da Hina Godema beda: iwane dawa: su amola Ema nodosu, ilia dio huluane dedei dagoi.

17 And they shall be my special possession, saith the Lord of hosts, in the day that I do judgment: and I will spare them, as a man spareth his son that serveth him.

Amola Hina Gode Bagadedafa da amane sia: i, “Amo dunu amola uda da Na fidafa esalumu. Na eso Bagadedafa da doaga: sea, ilia da Na dunudafa esalebe ba: mu. Osobo bagade ada da ea mano amo da ea hawa: hamosa, ilima asigiba: le gogolema: ne olofosa, amo defele Na da amo dunu ilima asigimu amola gogolema: ne olofomu.

18 And you shall return, and shall see the difference between the just and the wicked: and between him that serveth God, and him that serveth him not.

Amola Na fi dunu da Na houdafa bu ba: mu. Amola hou da fa: no moloidafa dunu amoga doaga: mu da hou hisu amola hou da wadela: i hamosu dunu amoma doaga: mu da hou hisu, amo ilia da ba: mu. Amola Nama hawa: hamosu dunu ilia da hou hisu ba: mu, amola Nama fa: no bobogemu higa: i dunu ilia da hou hisu ba: mu, amo ilia da dawa: mu.
