< Haggai 2 >

1 In the seuenth moneth, in the one and twentieth day of the moneth, came the worde of the Lord by the ministerie of the Prophet Haggai, saying,
‌ʻI hono fitu ʻoe māhina, ʻi he ʻaho ʻe uofulu ma taha ʻoe māhina, naʻe hoko ai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova ki he palōfita ko Hakeai, ʻo pehē,
2 Speake nowe to Zerubbabel the sonne of Shealtiel prince of Iudah, and to Iehoshua the sonne of Iehozadak the hie Priest, and to the residue of the people, saying,
“Ke ke lea ni kia Selupepeli ko e foha ʻo Sialiteli, ko e pule ʻo Siuta, pea kia Siosiua ko e foha ʻo Sosataki, ko e taulaʻeiki lahi, pea ki he toenga ʻoe kakai, ʻo pehē,
3 Who is left among you, that sawe this House in her first glory, and howe doe you see it nowe? is it not in your eyes, in comparison of it as nothing?
‘Ko hai ʻoku toe ʻiate kimoutolu, ʻaia naʻe mamata ki he fale ni, ʻi hono ʻuluaki nāunau? Pea ʻoku fēfē ʻa hoʻomou mamata ki ai ni? ʻIkai ʻoku hangē ko e meʻa noa pe ia ʻi homou mata ʻi he fakatatau ki ai?
4 Yet nowe be of good courage, O Zerubbabel, sayth the Lord, and be of good comfort, O Iehoshua, sonne of Iehozadak the hie Priest: and be strong, all ye people of the land, sayth the Lord, and doe it: for I am with you, sayth the Lord of hostes,
Ka ke mālohi ni, ʻE Selupepeli,’ ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova; ‘pea ke mālohi, ʻE Siosiua, ko e foha ʻo Sosataki, ko e taulaʻeiki lahi; pea ke mou mālohi, ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻoe fonua, pea ngāue,’ ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova; ‘He ʻoku ou ʻiate kimoutolu,’ ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau;
5 According to the worde that I couenanted with you, when ye came out of Egypt: so my Spirite shall remaine among you, feare ye not.
‌ʻO hangē ko e folofola ʻaia naʻaku fefuakavaʻaki mo kimoutolu ʻi hoʻomou haʻu mei ʻIsipite, ko ia ʻe nofo ai ʻa hoku Laumālie ʻiate kimoutolu: ‘ʻOua te mou manavahē.’
6 For thus sayth the Lord of hostes, Yet a litle while, and I will shake the heauens and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land:
He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau; ‘Ka ko e toe taha, ʻoku toetoe siʻi, pea te u lulululu ʻae ngaahi langi, mo māmani, mo e tahi, mo e fonua mōmoa;
7 And I will moue all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come, and I will fill this House with glory, sayth the Lord of hostes.
Pea te u luluʻi ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē, pea ʻe hāʻele mai ʻae Holi ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē: pea te u fakafonu ʻae fale ni ʻi he nāunau,’ ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau.
8 The siluer is mine, and the golde is mine, sayth the Lord of hostes.
‌ʻOku ʻaʻaku ʻae siliva, ʻoku ʻaʻaku mo e koula, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau.
9 The glory of this last House shall be greater then the first, sayth the Lord of hostes: and in this place will I giue peace, sayth the Lord of hostes.
‘ʻE lahi hake ʻae nāunau ʻoe fale kimui ni ʻi he ʻuluaki fale,’ ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau: ‘pea te u foaki ʻae melino ki he potu ni,’ ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau.”
10 In the foure and twentieth day of the ninth moneth, in the second yeere of Darius, came the worde of the Lord vnto the Prophet Haggai, saying,
“ʻI hono uofulu ma fā ʻoe ʻaho ʻi hono hiva ʻoe māhina, ʻi hono ua ʻoe taʻu ʻo Talaiasi, naʻe hoko ai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova ia Hakeai ko e palōfita, ʻo pehē,
11 Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, Aske nowe the Priests concerning the Law, and say,
“ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, Fehuʻi ni ki he kau taulaʻeiki ʻi he fono, ʻo pehē,
12 If one beare holy flesh in the skirt of his garment, and with his skirt doe touch the bread, or the potage, or the wine, or oyle, or any meate, shall it be holy? And the Priests answered and said, No.
‘Kapau ʻoku ʻave ʻe ha taha ha konga feilaulau māʻoniʻoni ʻi hono kapaʻi kofu, pea ʻoku ala ʻa hono kapa ki he mā, pe ki he peke, pe ki he uaine, pe ki he lolo, pe ki ha meʻakai, ʻe māʻoniʻoni ia?’” Pea naʻe tali ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki, ʻo pehē, “ʻIkai.”
13 Then sayde Haggai, If a polluted person touch any of these, shall it be vncleane? And the Priests answered, and sayd, It shalbe vncleane.
Pea naʻe toki pehē ʻe Hakeai, “Ka ala ʻe ha taha ʻoku taʻemaʻa ʻi ha pekia, ki ha taha ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ni, ʻe taʻemaʻa ia?” Pea naʻe tali ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki, ʻo pehē, “ʻE taʻemaʻa ia.”
14 Then answered Haggai, and sayd, So is this people, and so is this nation before me, saith the Lord: and so are all the workes of their hands, and that which they offer here, is vncleane.
Pea naʻe toki lea ʻa Hakeai, ʻo pehē, “‘ʻOku pehē ʻae kakai ni, pea ʻoku pehē mo e puleʻanga ni ʻi hoku ʻao, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova; pea ʻoku pehē ʻae ngaahi ngāue kotoa pē ʻa honau nima, pea ʻoku taʻemaʻa mo ia ʻaia ʻoku nau feilaulau ʻaki ʻi hena.
15 And nowe, I pray you, consider in your mindes: from this day, and afore, euen afore a stone was layde vpon a stone in the Temple of the Lord:
Pea ko eni, ʻOku ou kole ke mou fakakaukau mei he ʻaho ni ʻo fai atu, ʻi he teʻeki ke fokotuʻu ha maka ki ha maka ʻi he falelotu lahi ʻo Sihova:
16 Before these things were, when one came to an heape of twentie measures, there were but ten: when one came to the wine presse for to drawe out fiftie vessels out of the presse, there were but twentie.
Talu ʻa e [ngaahi ʻaho ]ko ia, ʻi he ʻalu ha taha ki ha fokotuʻunga ʻoe [puha fua ]ʻe uofulu, naʻe ai ʻae hongofulu pe: ʻi he ʻalu ha taha ki he tataʻoʻanga ke ne fakatafe mei he tataʻoʻanga ki he [ngaahi ipu ]ʻe nimangofulu, naʻe ai ʻae uofulu pe.
17 I smote you with blasting, and with mildewe, and with haile, in all the labours of your hands: yet you turned not to me, saith the Lord.
Naʻaku taaʻi ʻaki ʻakimoutolu ʻae fakamae, pea mo e tuʻungafulufulua, pea mo e ʻuha maka ʻi he ngaahi ngāue kotoa pē ʻa homou nima; ka naʻe ʻikai te mou tafoki kiate au,’ ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.
18 Consider, I pray you, in your mindes, from this day, and afore from the foure and twentieth day of the ninth moneth, euen from the day that the foundation of the Lords Temple was laide: consider it in your mindes.
‘Fakakaukau ni mei he ʻaho ni ʻo fai atu, mei hono uofulu ma fā ʻoe ʻaho ʻi hono hiva ʻoe māhina, ʻio, mei he ʻaho naʻe ai ʻae tuʻunga ʻoe falelotu lahi ʻo Sihova, fakakaukau ki ai.
19 Is the seede yet in the barne? as yet the vine, and the figtree, and the pomegranate, and the oliue tree hath not brought forth: from this day will I blesse you.
‌ʻOku kei ʻi he feleoko ʻae tenga? ʻIo, ʻoku teʻeki ai ke tupu ʻae fua ʻoe vaine mo e ʻakau ko e fiki, mo e pomikanite, mo e ʻakau ko e ʻolive: te u tāpuakiʻi ʻakimoutolu mei he ʻaho ni.’”
20 And againe the worde of the Lord came vnto Haggai in the foure and twentieth day of the moneth, saying,
Pea naʻe toe hoko ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kia Hakeai, ʻi he ʻaho ʻe uofulu ma fā ʻoe māhina, ʻo pehē,
21 Speake to Zerubbabel the prince of Iudah, and say, I wil shake the heauens and the earth,
“Fakahā kia Selupepeli, ko e pule ʻo Siuta,” ʻo pehē, ‘Te u luluʻi ʻae ngaahi langi mo māmani;
22 And I will ouerthrowe the throne of kingdomes, and I wil destroy the strength of the kingdomes of the heathen, and I wil ouerthrowe the charets, and those that ride in them, and the horse and the riders shall come downe, euery one by the sword of his brother.
Pea te u fulihi ʻae nofoʻa fakaʻeiʻeiki ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga; pea te u maumauʻi ʻae mālohi ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga hiteni; pea te u fulihi ʻae ngaahi meʻa teka, mo kinautolu ʻoku heka ai; pea ʻe hinga ki lalo ʻae fanga hoosi mo honau kau tangata heka, taki taha ʻi he heletā ʻa hono tokoua.
23 In that day, saith the Lord of hostes, will I take thee, O Zerubbabel my seruant, the sonne of Shealtiel, sayth the Lord, and wil make thee as a signet: for I haue chosen thee, sayth the Lord of hostes.
‌ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ʻI he ʻaho ko ia, te u ʻave koe, ʻE Selupepeli, ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki, ko e foha ʻo Sialiteli,’ ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, ‘pea te u ngaohi koe ke hangē ko e fakaʻilonga: he kuo u fili koe,’ ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau.”
