Hagay 1
1 Tamin’ ny andro voalohany tamin’ ny volana fahenina tamin’ ny taona faharoa nanjakan’ i Dariosa mpanjaka no nahatongavan’ ny tenin’ i Jehovah nentin’ i Hagay mpaminany tamin’ i Zerobabela, zanak’ i Sealtiela, governora tany Joda, sy tamin’ i Josoa, zanak’ i Jozadaka, mpisoronabe, nanao hoe:
In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, in the first day of the month, came the word of the LORD by Haggai the prophet to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, saying,
2 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro: Ity firenena ity nanao hoe: Tsy mbola tonga ny andro tokony hihaviana hanaovana ny tranon’ i Jehovah.
Thus speaks the LORD of hosts, saying, This people say, The time is not come, the time that the LORD’s house should be built.
3 Dia tonga ny tenin’ i Jehovah nentin’ i Hagay mpaminany nanao hoe:
Then came the word of the LORD by Haggai the prophet, saying,
4 Moa andro tokony hitoeran’ ny tenanareo ao amin’ ny tranonareo misy valin-drihana va izao, kanefa rava ity trano ity?
Is it time for you, O you, to dwell in your paneled houses, and this house lie waste?
5 Koa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro: Hevero ny lalanareo.
Now therefore thus says the LORD of hosts; Consider your ways.
6 Efa namafy be ianareo, nefa kely no taomina: mihinana ianareo, nefa tsy voky; misotro ianareo, nefa tsy afa-po; mitafy ianareo, nefa tsy misy mafana; ary izay mahazo karama dia mahazo karama hatao an-kitapo loaka.
You have sown much, and bring in little; you eat, but you have not enough; you drink, but you are not filled with drink; you clothe you, but there is none warm; and he that earns wages earns wages to put it into a bag with holes.
7 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro: Hevero ny lalanareo.
Thus says the LORD of hosts; Consider your ways.
8 Miakara any an-tendrombohitra, ka makà hazo, ary ataovy ny trano, dia hankasitrahako izany, sady hankalazaina Aho, hoy Jehovah.
Go up to the mountain, and bring wood, and build the house; and I will take pleasure in it, and I will be glorified, says the LORD.
9 Nanampo be ianareo, kanjo indro, kely monja; ary nony notaominareo, dia notsofiko. Nahoana? hoy Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro. Satria efa rava ny tranoko, nefa ianareo samy mihazakazaka hanao ny tranonareo avy.
You looked for much, and, see it came to little; and when you brought it home, I did blow on it. Why? says the LORD of hosts. Because of my house that is waste, and you run every man to his own house.
10 Ary noho izany dia ny aminareo no nitsaharan’ ny lanitra tsy hampilatsaka ando sy nitsaharan’ ny tany tsy hahavokatra.
Therefore the heaven over you is stayed from dew, and the earth is stayed from her fruit.
11 Ary niantso ny fahamainana Aho hamely ny tany sy ny tendrombohitra sy ny vary sy ny ranom-boaloboka sy ny diloilo sy izay vokatry ny tany ary ny olona sy ny biby fiompy mbamin’ izay rehetra efa nisasaran’ ny tanana.
And I called for a drought on the land, and on the mountains, and on the corn, and on the new wine, and on the oil, and on that which the ground brings forth, and on men, and on cattle, and on all the labor of the hands.
12 Ary Zerobabela, zanak’ i Sealtiela, sy Josoa, zanak’ i Jozadaka, mpisoronabe, mbamin’ ny sisa rehetra amin’ ny vahoaka, dia nihaino ny feon’ i Jehovah Andriamaniny sy ny tenin’ i Hagay mpaminany, araka ny nanirahan’ i Jehovah Andriamaniny azy, ary natahotra teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah ny olona.
Then Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, with all the remnant of the people, obeyed the voice of the LORD their God, and the words of Haggai the prophet, as the LORD their God had sent him, and the people did fear before the LORD.
13 Ary nambaran’ i Hagay, irak’ i Jehovah, ny teny nampitondrain’ i Jehovah ho amin’ ny olona nanao hoe: Izaho no momba anareo, hoy Jehovah.
Then spoke Haggai the LORD’s messenger in the LORD’s message to the people, saying, I am with you, says the LORD.
14 Dia notairin’ i Jehovah ny fanahin’ i Zerobabela, zanak’ i Sealtiela, governora any Joda, sy ny fanahin’ i Josoa, zanak’ i Jozadaka mpisoronabe, sy ny fanahin’ ny sisa rehetra amin’ ny vahoaka; ary dia avy izy ka nandrafitra ny tranon’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Andriamaniny,
And the LORD stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people; and they came and did work in the house of the LORD of hosts, their God,
15 tamin’ ny andro fahefatra amby roa-polo tamin’ ny volana fahenina tamin’ ny taona faharoa nanjakan’ i Dariosa.
In the four and twentieth day of the sixth month, in the second year of Darius the king.
