< Haggeo 1 >

1 Iti maikadua a tawen a panagturay ni Dario a kas ari, iti umuna nga aldaw ti maika-innem a bulan, immay ti sao ni Yahweh babaen iti ima ni Haggeo a profeta, ti sao ket para iti gobernador ti Juda a ni Zerubbabel a putot a lalaki ni Salatiel ken para kenni Josue a kangatoan a padi a putot a lalaki ni Josadak ket kinunana:
In the second year of the reign of king Darius, on the first day of the sixth month, the Lord sent a message through the prophet Haggai to Zerubbabel, son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua, son of Jehozadak, the high priest.
2 “Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a mannakabalin-amin: 'Kinuna dagitoy a tattao, “saan pay a dimteng ti tiempo nga ipatakdertayo ti balay ni Yahweh.”
The Lord Almighty says this: the people say, “This isn't the proper time to rebuild the Lord's house.”
3 Isu nga immay ti sao ni Yahweh babaen iti ima ni Haggeo a profeta ket kinunana,
Then the Lord sent a message through the prophet Haggai, saying,
4 “Tiempo kadin nga agnaedkayo kadagiti nalpasen a balayyo idinto a nadadael daytoy a balay?
Is it the proper time for you to live in your paneled houses while this house remains a ruin?
5 Isu nga ita, kastoy ti ibagbaga ni Yahweh a mannakabalin-amin: 'Panunotenyo dagiti ar-aramidenyo!
So the Lord Almighty says this: Think about what you're doing!
6 Nagmulakayo iti adu a bukel ngem bassit ti apityo; mangankayo ngem saankayo a mabsog; uminomkayo iti arak ngem saankayo a mabartek. Agkaweskayo ngem saan a maimengan dagiti bagbagiyo, ken agur-urnong iti kuarta ti mangmangged tapno ipisokna laeng iti supot a napnoan ti abot”
You have sown much but harvested little. You eat but you're still hungry. You drink but you're still thirsty. You put on clothes but you're still cold. You work hard to earn money but put it in a bag full of holes.
7 Kastoy ti ibagbaga ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin: “Panunotenyo dagiti ar-aramidenyo!
The Lord Almighty says this: Think about what you're doing!
8 Sumang-atkayo iti bantay, mangalakayo iti kayo, ket bangonenyo ti balayko; maragsakanakto iti daytoy ket maidayawakto!'.
Go into the hills and bring wood to build the house. This will please me and honor me, says the Lord.
9 'Nagsapulkayo iti adu ngem kitaenyo! Bassit ti naiyawidyo, ta pinatayab ko daytoy! Apay?'—daytoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin! 'Gapu ta nadadael ti balayko, idinto a maragragsakan ti amin a tao iti bukodna a balay.'
You were hoping for so much, but look, it turned out to be so little. Everything you brought home I blew away. And why was that? Because my house remains a ruin while you are preoccupied with building your own houses, declares the Lord Almighty.
10 Gapu iti daytoy, ipaidam dagiti langit ti linna-aw kadakayo, ket ipaidam ti daga ti bungana.
That's why the clouds of heaven refused to send rain, and the earth refused to produce crops.
11 Pinagtikagko dagiti daga ken dagiti bantay, dagiti bukel ken ti baro nga arak, ti lana ken ti apit ti daga, dagiti tattao ken narurungsot nga ayup, ken amin nga aramid dagiti imayo!'''
I called for a drought on the land, on the hills, on the grain fields, on the vineyards, and on the olive groves—on whatever the earth produces—and on people and livestock, on everything you do!
12 Ket ni Zerubbabel a putot a lalaki ni Salatiel ken ni Josue a kangatoan a padi a putot a lalaki ni Josadak, ken amin a nabatbati kadagiti tattao ket nagtulnogda iti timek ni Yahweh a Diosda, ken kadagiti sasao ni Haggeo a profeta, gapu ta ni Yahweh a Diosda ti nangibaon kenkuana. Ket nagbuteng dagiti tattao iti rupa ni Yahweh.
Then Zerubbabel, son of Shealtiel, Joshua, son of Jehozadak, the high priest, together with all the remaining people, paid attention to what the Lord said, and to the words of Haggai the prophet that the Lord their God had sent. The people showed reverence before the Lord.
13 Ket ni Haggeo, a mensahero, insaona ti mensahe ni Yahweh kadagiti tattao a kinunana, ''“Addaak kadakayo!'—daytoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh!”
Then Haggai, the Lord's messenger, delivered this message from the Lord telling the people, I am with you! says the Lord.
14 Tinignay ngarud ni Yahweh ti espiritu ti gobernador ti Juda a ni Zerubbabel a putot a lalaki ni Salatiel, ken ti espiritu ti kangatoan a padi a ni Josue a putot a lalaki ni Josadak, ken ti espiritu dagiti amin a nabatbati kadagiti tattao, isu a napanda ket nagtrabahoda iti balay ni Yahweh a Diosda.
The Lord inspired Zerubbabel, son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and Joshua, son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and all the remaining people. They came and began work on the house of the Lord Almighty.
15 Iti maika-duapulo ket uppat nga aldaw iti maika-innem a bulan, iti maikadua a tawen a panagturay ni Dario a kas ari.
This happened on the twenty-fourth day of the sixth month in the second year of the reign of king Darius.
