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,
2 Asɛm a Asafo Awurade ka nie: “Nnipa no reka sɛ, ‘Ɛberɛ no nnya nnuruiɛ sɛ wɔsi Awurade fie no.’”
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.
3 Afei, Awurade de saa asɛm yi faa Odiyifoɔ Hagai so:
And the word of the Lord was maad in the hond of Aggei,
4 “Saa ɛberɛ yi a me fie yi abubuo yi, ɛna mo deɛ motete mo afie a wɔaduradura mu yi anaa?”
profete, and seide, Whether it is tyme to you, that ye dwelle in housis couplid with tymbir, and this hous be forsakun?
5 Asɛm a, Asafo Awurade ka nie: “Monnwene mo akwan ho yie.
And now the Lord of oostis seith these thingis, Putte ye youre hertis on youre weies.
6 Moduaa bebree, nanso motwaa kakraa bi. Modidi, nanso mommee. Monom, nanso osukɔm de mo ara. Mohyɛ ntadeɛ, nanso ɛnka mo hye. Monya akatua, na mode gu sikabɔtɔ a wɔatuetue mu ntokuro mu.”
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.
7 Asɛm a Otumfoɔ Awurade ka nie: “Monnwene mo akwan ho yie.
The Lord of oostis seith these thingis, Putte ye youre hertis on youre weies.
8 Afei, momforo nkɔ nkokoɔ no atifi, na momfa nnua mmra mmɛsi me fie no. Na mʼani bɛgye ho, na wɔahyɛ me animuonyam.” Saa na Awurade ka.
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.
9 “Mo ani daa bebree so, nanso ɛyɛɛ kakraa bi. Na mode baa fie no, mehu guiɛ. Ɛdeɛn ntira?” Ɛfiri sɛ, “me fie abubu.” Saa na Asafo Awurade ka, “ɛberɛ a mo ani abere resisi mo afie.
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.
10 Mo enti na ɔsoro akyere ɛbɔ agyina, na asase nso akyere mo mfudeɛ.
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.
11 Mahyɛ ɔpɛ sɛ ɛnsi mo mfuo ne nkokoɔ so; ɔpɛ a ɛbɛhye mo atokoɔ ne mo bobe ne mo ngo dua ne mo mfudeɛ, ɛbɛyɛ ɔpɛ a ɛbɛsi mo ne mo anantwie mu, na asɛe dwuma biara a mode mo nsa adi.”
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.
12 Ɛnna Sealtiel babarima Serubabel, Ɔsɔfopanin Yehosadak babarima Yosua ne Onyankopɔn nkurɔfoɔ nkaeɛ no tiee asɛm a ɛfiri Awurade, wɔn Onyankopɔn, ne Odiyifoɔ Hagai a Awurade, wɔn Onyankopɔn, asoma no no. Na nnipa no de osuro maa Awurade.
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.
13 Na Hagai, Awurade somafoɔ no, de saa asɛm yi a ɛfiri Awurade nkyɛn maa nkurɔfoɔ no: “Meka mo ho.” Saa na Awurade seɛ.
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.
14 Ɛno enti, Awurade kanyanee Sealtiel babarima Serubabel a ɔyɛ Yuda amrado, Ɔsɔfopanin Yehosadak babarima Yosua ne Onyankopɔn nkurɔfoɔ nkaeɛ no nyinaa. Wɔbɛhyɛɛ wɔn adwuma a ɛwɔ Asafo Awurade, wɔn Onyankopɔn, fie no ase,
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.
