[1] In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, in the first day of the month, Yahweh’s§ word came by Haggai the prophet, to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, saying, [2] “This is what Yahweh of Armies says: These people say, ‘The time hasn’t yet come, the time for Yahweh’s house to be built.’” [3] Then Yahweh’s word came by Haggai the prophet, saying, [4] “Is it a time for you yourselves to dwell in your paneled houses, while this house lies waste? [5] Now therefore this is what Yahweh of Armies says: ‘Consider your ways. [6] You have sown much, and bring in little. You eat, but you don’t have enough. You drink, but you aren’t filled with drink. You clothe yourselves, but no one is warm; and he who earns wages earns wages to put them into a bag with holes in it.’ [7] “This is what Yahweh of Armies says: ‘Consider your ways. [8] Go up to the mountain, bring wood, and build the house. I will take pleasure in it, and I will be glorified,” says Yahweh. [9] “You looked for much, and, behold,§ it came to little; and when you brought it home, I blew it away. Why?” says Yahweh of Armies, “Because of my house that lies waste, while each of you is busy with his own house. [10] Therefore for your sake the heavens withhold the dew, and the earth withholds its fruit. [11] I called for a drought on the land, on the mountains, on the grain, on the new wine, on the oil, on that which the ground produces, on men, on livestock, and on all the labor of the hands.” [12] Then Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel and Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, with all the remnant of the people, obeyed Yahweh their God’s§ voice, and the words of Haggai the prophet, as Yahweh their God had sent him; and the people feared Yahweh. [13] Then Haggai, Yahweh’s messenger, spoke Yahweh’s message to the people, saying, “I am with you,” says Yahweh. [14] Yahweh 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 worked on the house of Yahweh of Armies, their God, [15] in the twenty-fourth day of the month, in the sixth month, in the second year of Darius the king.

King James Version
[1] In the second H8147 year H8141 of Darius H1867 the king, H4428 in the sixth H8345 month, H2320 in the first H259 day H3117 of the month, H2320 came the word H1697 of the Lord H3068 by H3027 Haggai H2292§ the prophet H5030 unto H413 Zerubbabel H2216 the son H1121 of Shealtiel, H7597 governor H6346§ of Judah, H3063 and to Joshua H3091 the son H1121 of Josedech, H3087 the high H1419 priest, H3548 saying, H559 [2] Thus H3541 speaketh H559 the Lord H3068 of hosts, H6635 saying, H559 This H2088 people H5971 say, H559 The time H6256 is not come, H935 the time H6256 that the Lord’s H3068 house H1004 should be built. H1129

This House Lies Waste

[3] Then came the word H1697 of the Lord H3068 by H3027 Haggai H2292 the prophet, H5030 saying, H559 [4] Is it time H6256 for you, O ye, to dwell H3427 in your cieled H5603 houses, H1004 and this house H1004 lie waste? H2720 [5] Now H6258 therefore thus saith H559 the Lord H3068 of hosts; H6635 Consider H7760 H3824 your ways. H1870§ [6] Ye have sown H2232 much, H7235 and bring H935 in little; H4592 ye eat, H398 but ye have not enough; H7654 ye drink, H8354 but ye are not filled with drink; H7937 ye clothe H3847 you, but there is none warm; H2527 and he that earneth wages H7936 earneth wages H7936 to put it into a bag H6872 with holes. H5344§ [7] Thus H3541 saith H559 the Lord H3068 of hosts; H6635 Consider H7760 H3824 your ways. H1870 [8] Go up H5927 to the mountain, H2022 and bring H935 wood, H6086 and build H1129 the house; H1004 and I will take pleasure H7521 in it, and I will be glorified, H3513 saith H559 the Lord. H3068 [9] Ye looked H6437 for much, H7235 and, lo, it came to little; H4592 and when ye brought H935 it home, H1004 I did blow H5301 upon it.§ Why? saith H5002 the Lord H3068 of hosts. H6635 Because H3282 of mine house H1004 that is waste, H2720 and ye run H7323 every man H376 unto H413 his own house. H1004 [10] Therefore the heaven H8064 over H5921 you is stayed H3607 from dew, H2919 and the earth H776 is stayed H3607 from her fruit. H2981 [11] And I called H7121 for a drought H2721 upon H5921 the land, H776 and upon the mountains, H2022 and upon the corn, H1715 and upon the new wine, H8492 and upon the oil, H3323 and upon that which the ground H127 bringeth forth, H3318 and upon men, H120 and upon cattle, H929 and upon all the labour H3018 of the hands. H3709 [12] Then Zerubbabel H2216 the son H1121 of Shealtiel, H7597 and Joshua H3091 the son H1121 of Josedech, H3087 the high H1419 priest, H3548 with all the remnant H7611 of the people, H5971 obeyed H8085 the voice H6963 of the Lord H3068 their God, H430 and the words H1697 of Haggai H2292 the prophet, H5030 as the Lord H3068 their God H430 had sent H7971 him, and the people H5971 did fear H3372 before H6440 the Lord. H3068 [13] Then spake H559 Haggai H2292 the Lord’s H3068 messenger H4397 in the Lord’s H3068 message H4400 unto the people, H5971 saying, H559 I am with you, saith H5002 the Lord. H3068 [14] And the Lord H3068 stirred up H5782 the spirit H7307 of Zerubbabel H2216 the son H1121 of Shealtiel, H7597 governor H6346 of Judah, H3063 and the spirit H7307 of Joshua H3091 the son H1121 of Josedech, H3087 the high H1419 priest, H3548 and the spirit H7307 of all the remnant H7611 of the people; H5971 and they came H935 and did H6213 work H4399 in the house H1004 of the Lord H3068 of hosts, H6635 their God, H430 [15] in the four H702 and twentieth H6242 day H3117 of the sixth H8345 month, H2320 in the second H8147 year H8141 of Darius H1867 the king.
