In the second
year
of Darius
the king,
in the sixth
month,
in the first
day
of the month,
came the word
of the LORD
by
Haggai
the prophet
unto Zerubbabel
the son
of Shealtiel,
governor
of Judah,
and to Joshua
the son
of Josedech,
the high
priest,
saying,

Thus speaketh
the LORD
of hosts,
saying,
This people
say,
The time
is not come,
the time
that the LORD'S
house
should be built.
Then came the word
of the LORD
by
Haggai
the prophet,
saying,
Is it time
for you, O ye, to dwell
in your cieled
houses,
and this house
lie waste?
Now therefore thus saith
the LORD
of hosts;
Consider
your ways.
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.

Thus saith
the LORD
of hosts;
Consider
your ways.
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
the LORD.
Ye looked
for much,
and, lo, it came to little;
and when ye brought
it home,
I did blow
upon it. Why? saith
the LORD
of hosts.
Because
of mine house
that is waste,
and ye run
every man
unto his own house.
blow away

Therefore the heaven
over you is stayed
from dew,
and the earth
is stayed
from her fruit.
And I called
for a drought
upon the land,
and upon the mountains,
and upon the corn,
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 labour
of the hands.
Then Zerubbabel
the son
of Shealtiel,
and Joshua
the son
of Josedech,
the high
priest,
with all the remnant
of the people,
obeyed
the voice
of the LORD
their God,
and the words
of Haggai
the prophet,
as the LORD
their God
had sent
him, and the people
did fear
before
the LORD.

Then spake
Haggai
the LORD'S
messenger
in the LORD'S
message
unto the people,
saying,
I am with you, saith
the LORD.
And the LORD
stirred up
the spirit
of Zerubbabel
the son
of Shealtiel,
governor
of Judah,
and the spirit
of Joshua
the son
of Josedech,
the high
priest,
and the spirit
of all the remnant
of the people;
and they came
and did
work
in the house
of the LORD
of hosts,
their God,

In the four
and twentieth
day
of the sixth

in the second
year
of Darius
the king.
