大利乌王第二年六月初一日,耶和华的话藉先知哈该向犹大省长撒拉铁的儿子所罗巴伯和约撒答的儿子大祭司约书亚说:
|
|
In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, in the first day of the month, came the word of Jehovah by Haggai the prophet unto Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, saying,
|
1:2
|
万军之耶和华如此说:「这百姓说,建造耶和华殿的时候尚未来到。」
|
|
Thus speaketh Jehovah of hosts, saying, This people say, It is not the time [for us] to come, the time for Jehovah`s house to be built.
|
1:3
|
那时耶和华的话临到先知哈该说:
|
|
Then came the word of Jehovah by Haggai the prophet, saying,
|
1:4
|
「这殿仍然荒凉,你们自己还住天花板的房屋吗?
|
|
Is it a time for you yourselves to dwell in your ceiled houses, while this house lieth waste?
|
1:5
|
现在万军之耶和华如此说:你们要省察自己的行为。
|
|
Now therefore thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Consider your ways.
|
1:6
|
你们撒的种多,收的却少;你们吃,却不得饱;喝,却不得足;穿衣服,却不得暖;得工钱的,将工钱装在破漏的囊中。」
|
|
Ye have sown much, and bring in little; ye eat, but ye have not enough; ye drink, but ye are not filled with drink; ye clothe you, but there is none warm; and he that earneth wages earneth wages [to put it] into a bag with holes.
|
1:7
|
万军之耶和华如此说:「你们要省察自己的行为。
|
|
Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Consider your ways.
|
1:8
|
你们要上山取木料,建造这殿,我就因此喜乐,且得荣耀。这是耶和华说的。
|
|
Go up to the mountain, and bring wood, and build the house; and I will take pleasure in it, and I will be glorified, saith Jehovah.
|
1:9
|
你们盼望多得,所得的却少;你们收到家中,我就吹去。这是为什么呢?因为我的殿荒凉,你们各人却顾(原文作奔)自己的房屋。这是万军之耶和华说的。
|
|
Ye looked for much, and, lo, it came to little; and when ye brought it home, I did blow upon it. Why? saith Jehovah of hosts. Because of my house that lieth waste, while ye run every man to his own house.
|
1:10
|
所以为你们的缘故,天就不降甘露,地也不出土产。
|
|
Therefore for your sake the heavens withhold the dew, and the earth withholdeth its fruit.
|
1:11
|
我命干旱临到地土、山冈、五谷、新酒,和油,并地上的出产、人民、牲畜,以及人手一切劳碌得来的。」
|
|
And I called for a drought upon the land, and upon the mountains, and upon the grain, and upon the new wine, and upon the oil, and upon that which the ground bringeth forth, and upon men, and upon cattle, and upon all the labor of the hands.
|
1:12
|
那时,撒拉铁的儿子所罗巴伯和约撒答的儿子大祭司约书亚,并剩下的百姓,都听从耶和华他们神的话和先知哈该奉耶和华他们神差来所说的话;百姓也在耶和华面前存敬畏的心。
|
|
Then Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, with all the remnant of the people, obeyed the voice of Jehovah their God, and the words of Haggai the prophet, as Jehovah their God had sent him; and the people did fear before Jehovah.
|
1:13
|
耶和华的使者哈该奉耶和华差遣对百姓说:「耶和华说:我与你们同在。」
|
|
Then spake Haggai Jehovah`s messenger in Jehovah`s message unto the people, saying, I am with you, saith Jehovah.
|
1:14
|
耶和华激动犹大省长撒拉铁的儿子所罗巴伯和约撒答的儿子大祭司约书亚,并剩下之百姓的心,他们就来为万军之耶和华他们神的殿做工。
|
|
And Jehovah stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people; and they came and did work on the house of Jehovah of hosts, their God,
|
1:15
|
这是在大利乌王第二年六月二十四日。
|
|
in the four and twentieth day of the month, in the sixth [month], in the second year of Darius the king.
