[1]In the secondH8147 yearH8141 of DariusH1867 the kingH4428, in the sixthH8345 monthH2320, in the firstH259 dayH3117 of the monthH2320, came the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 byH3027 HaggaiH2292 the prophetH5030 unto ZerubbabelH2216 the sonH1121 of ShealtielH7597, governorH6346 of JudahH3063, and to JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of JosedechH3087, the highH1419 priestH3548, sayingH559,[H8800]
[2]Thus speakethH559[H8804] the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, sayingH559[H8800], This peopleH5971 sayH559[H8804], The timeH6256 is not comeH935[H8800], the timeH6256 that the LORD'SH3068 houseH1004 should be builtH1129.[H8736]
[3]Then came the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 byH3027 HaggaiH2292 the prophetH5030, sayingH559,[H8800]
[4]Is it timeH6256 for you, O ye, to dwellH3427[H8800] in your cieledH5603[H8803] housesH1004, and this houseH1004 lie wasteH2720?
[5]Now therefore thus saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; ConsiderH7760[H8798][H3824] your waysH1870.
[6]Ye have sownH2232[H8804] muchH7235[H8687], and bringH935[H8687] in littleH4592; ye eatH398[H8800], but ye have not enoughH7654; ye drinkH8354[H8800], but ye are not filled with drinkH7937[H8800]; ye clotheH3847[H8800] you, but there is none warmH2527; and he that earneth wagesH7936[H8693] earneth wagesH7936[H8693] to put it into a bagH6872 with holesH5344.[H8803]
[7]Thus saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; ConsiderH7760[H8798][H3824] your waysH1870.
[8]Go upH5927[H8798] to the mountainH2022, and bringH935[H8689] woodH6086, and buildH1129[H8798] the houseH1004; and I will take pleasureH7521[H8799] in it, and I will be glorifiedH3513[H8735], saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068.
[9]Ye lookedH6437[H8800] for muchH7235[H8687], and, lo, it came to littleH4592; and when ye broughtH935[H8689] it homeH1004, I did blowH5301[H8804] upon it. Why? saithH5002[H8803] the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635. BecauseH3282 of mine houseH1004 that is wasteH2720, and ye runH7323[H8801] every manH376 unto his own houseH1004.
[10]Therefore the heavenH8064 over you is stayedH3607[H8804] from dewH2919, and the earthH776 is stayedH3607[H8804] from her fruitH2981.
[11]And I calledH7121[H8799] for a droughtH2721 upon the landH776, and upon the mountainsH2022, and upon the cornH1715, and upon the new wineH8492, and upon the oilH3323, and upon that which the groundH127 bringeth forthH3318[H8686], and upon menH120, and upon cattleH929, and upon all the labourH3018 of the handsH3709.
[12]Then ZerubbabelH2216 the sonH1121 of ShealtielH7597, and JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of JosedechH3087, the highH1419 priestH3548, with all the remnantH7611 of the peopleH5971, obeyedH8085[H8799] the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 their GodH430, and the wordsH1697 of HaggaiH2292 the prophetH5030, as the LORDH3068 their GodH430 had sentH7971[H8804] him, and the peopleH5971 did fearH3372[H8799] beforeH6440 the LORDH3068.
[13]Then spakeH559[H8799] HaggaiH2292 the LORD'SH3068 messengerH4397 in the LORD'SH3068 messageH4400 unto the peopleH5971, sayingH559[H8800], I am with you, saithH5002[H8803] the LORDH3068.
[14]And the LORDH3068 stirred upH5782[H8686] the spiritH7307 of ZerubbabelH2216 the sonH1121 of ShealtielH7597, governorH6346 of JudahH3063, and the spiritH7307 of JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of JosedechH3087, the highH1419 priestH3548, and the spiritH7307 of all the remnantH7611 of the peopleH5971; and they cameH935[H8799] and didH6213[H8799] workH4399 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, their GodH430,
[15]In the fourH702 and twentiethH6242 dayH3117 of the sixthH8345 monthH2320, in the secondH8147 yearH8141 of DariusH1867 the kingH4428.
