< Haggeo 2 >

1 Iti maikadua-pulo ket maysa nga aldaw iti maikapito a bulan, immay ti sao ni Yahweh babaen iti ima ni Haggeo a profeta, ket kinunana:
In the seventh month, in the twenty-first day of the month, the LORD’s word came by Haggai the prophet, saying,
2 “Makisaoka iti gobernador ti Juda, a ni Zerubbabel a putot a lalaki ni Salatiel, ken iti kangatoan a padi, a ni Josue a putot a lalaki ni Josadak, ken dagiti nabatbati kadagiti tattao. Kunam,
“Speak now to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and to the remnant of the people, saying,
3 “Siasino kadakayo a nabatbabati ti nakakita iti sigud a kinadayag daytoy a balay? Ket ania ti panagkitayo iti daytoy ita? Saan kadi a kasla awanen serserbina daytoy kadagiti matayo?
‘Who is left among you who saw this house in its former glory? How do you see it now? Is not it in your eyes as nothing?
4 Ita, bumilegka Zerubbabel!'—daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh—' bumilegka, Josue, kangatoan a padi, a putot a lalaki ni Josadak; ken bumilegkayo, dakayo amin a tattao iti daga!'—Daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh—'ket agtrabahokayo, ta addaak kadakayo'—daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin.
Yet now be strong, Zerubbabel,’ says the LORD. ‘Be strong, Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest. Be strong, all you people of the land,’ says the LORD, ‘and work, for I am with you,’ says the LORD of Armies.
5 Babaen kadagiti kari a nailanad iti tulag nga inaramidko kadakayo idi rimmuarkayo manipud idiay Egipto ken nakipagtakder ti Espirituk kadakayo, saankayo nga agbuteng!''
This is the word that I covenanted with you when you came out of Egypt, and my Spirit lived among you. ‘Do not be afraid.’
6 Ta daytoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin: 'Iti mabiit, gunggonekto manen dagiti langit ken ti daga, ti baybay ken ti namaga a daga!
For this is what the LORD of Armies says: ‘Yet once more, it is a little while, and I will shake the heavens, the earth, the sea, and the dry land;
7 Ket gunggonekto ti tunggal nasion, ket iyegto kaniak ti tunggal nasion dagiti napapateg a banbanag kadakuada, ket punuekto iti dayag daytoy a balay! 'kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin.
and I will shake all nations. The treasure of all nations will come, and I will fill this house with glory, says the LORD of Armies.
8 'Kukuak ti pirak ken balitok!'—daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin.
The silver is mine, and the gold is mine,’ says the LORD of Armies.
9 Ad-addanto pay ti kinadayag daytoy a balay iti masakbayan ngem idi damu,' kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin, 'ket Itedkonto ti kappia iti daytoy a lugar!'—daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin amin.”
‘The latter glory of this house will be greater than the former,’ says the LORD of Armies; ‘and in this place I will give peace,’ says the LORD of Armies.”
10 Iti maika-duapulo ket uppat nga aldaw iti maika-siam a bulan, iti maikadua a tawen a panagturay ni Dario a kas ari, immay ti sao ni Yahweh kenni Haggeo a profeta ket kinunana,
In the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, in the second year of Darius, the LORD’s word came by Haggai the prophet, saying,
11 “Kastoy ti kinuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin: 'Damagem kadagiti padi ti maipapan iti linteg, ket kunaem:
“The LORD of Armies says: Ask now the priests concerning the law, saying,
12 No sab-oken ti maysa a tao ti karne a naidaton kenni Yahweh iti gayadan ti kagayna, ket no maisagid ti gayadanna iti tinapay wenno nilambong, arak wenno lana, wenno dadduma pay a taraon, agbalin kadi a nasantoan dayta a taraon?”' Simmungbat dagiti padi ket kinunada, “Saan”.
‘If someone carries holy meat in the fold of his garment, and with his fold touches bread, stew, wine, oil, or any food, will it become holy?’” The priests answered, “No.”
13 Ket kinuna ni Haggeo, “No ti maysa a tao ket narugit gapu iti panangsagidna iti natay ket sagidenna ti aniaman kadagitoy a banbanag, agbalin kadi met a narugit dagitoy? Simmungbat dagiti papadi a kinunada. “Wen, agbalinda a narugit.''
Then Haggai said, “If one who is unclean by reason of a dead body touches any of these, will it be unclean?” The priests answered, “It will be unclean.”
14 Ket simmungbat ni Haggeo a kinunana, “Kastoy met ngarud kadagitoy a tattao ken iti daytoy a nasion iti sangoanak! —Daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh—'Ket kasta met ngarud kadagiti amin a banbanag a naaramidan dagiti imada: ti idatonda kaniak ket narugit.”
Then Haggai answered, “‘So is this people, and so is this nation before me,’ says the LORD; ‘and so is every work of their hands. That which they offer there is unclean.
15 Ita ngarud, lagipenyo manipud ita nga aldaw, sakbay a naiparabaw ti aniaman a bato iti sabali pay a bato iti templo ni Yahweh,
Now, please consider from this day and backward, before a stone was laid on a stone in the LORD’s temple.
16 tunggal iyaay ti siasinoman iti kamalig para iti duapulo a kasukat ti trigo, sangapulo laeng ti adda, ket tunggal iyaay ti maysa a tao iti ayan ti pagkargaan ti arak tapno agkaud iti limapulo a kasukat ti arak, duapulo laeng ti adda.
Through all that time, when one came to a heap of twenty measures, there were only ten. When one came to the wine vat to draw out fifty, there were only twenty.
17 Pinarigatkayo ken dagiti amin a trabaho nga inaramid dagiti imayo babaen iti panaglaylay ken buot, ngem saan kayo latta a nagsubli kaniak'—daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh.
I struck you with blight, mildew, and hail in all the work of your hands; yet you did not turn to me,’ says the LORD.
18 'Laglagipenyo manipud ita nga aldaw, iti maika-duapulo ket uppat nga aldaw iti maikasiyam a bulan, manipud iti aldaw a naipasdek ti pundasion ti templo ni Yahweh. laglagipenyo daytoy!
‘Consider, please, from this day and backward, from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, since the day that the foundation of the LORD’s temple was laid, consider it.
19 Adda kadi pay nabati a bukel iti kamalig? Saan a nagbunga ti ubas, ti kayo ti igos, ti granada, ken ti kayo nga olibo! Ngem manipud iti daytoy nga aldaw, bendisionankayo!”
Is the seed yet in the barn? Yes, the vine, the fig tree, the pomegranate, and the olive tree have not produced. From today I will bless you.’”
20 Ket immay iti maikadua a gundaway ti sao ni Yahweh kenni Haggeo iti maika-duapulo ket uppat nga aldaw iti dayta bulan a kinunana,
The LORD’s word came the second time to Haggai in the twenty-fourth day of the month, saying,
21 “Agsaoka kenni Zerubbabel a gobernador ti Juda ket ibagam, 'Gunggonekto dagiti langit ken ti daga.
“Speak to Zerubbabel, governor of Judah, saying, ‘I will shake the heavens and the earth.
22 Ta parmekekto ti trono dagiti pagarian ken dadaelek ti bileg dagiti pagarian kadagiti nasion! Parmekekto dagiti karuahe ken dagiti agluglugan; mapasagto dagiti kabalio ken dagiti nakasakay, mapasagto ti tunggal maysa gapu iti kampilan ti kabsatna.
I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms. I will destroy the strength of the kingdoms of the nations. I will overthrow the chariots and those who ride in them. The horses and their riders will come down, everyone by the sword of his brother.
23 Iti dayta nga aldaw,'—Daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin, —'Awatenka, Zerubbabel a putot a lalaki ni Salatiel, a kas adipenko,'- daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh. 'Isaadka a kas iti selio iti singsingko, ta sika ti pinilik!' —daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh a Mannakanalin-amin!”
In that day, says the LORD of Armies, I will take you, Zerubbabel my servant, the son of Shealtiel,’ says the LORD, ‘and will make you like a signet ring, for I have chosen you,’ says the LORD of Armies.”
