CHAP. I.
1 Haggai reproveth the people for neglecting
the building of the house: 7 He inciteth them
to the building: 12 He promiseth God's assistance
to them being forward.
1 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
note by Haggai the prophet to Zerubbabel
the son of Shealtiel, note governor of Judah,
and to Joshua the son of Josedech, the
high priest, saying,
2 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.
3 Then came the word of the Lord by
Haggai the prophet, saying,
4 Is it time for you, O ye, to dwell in
your ceiled houses, and this house lie
waste?
5 Now therefore thus saith the Lord of
hosts; note Consider your ways.
6 Ye have note sown much, and bring in
little; ye eat, but ye have not enough;
ye drink, but ye are not filled with drink;
ye clothe yourselves, but there is none
warm; and he that earneth wages earneth
wages to put it into a bag note with
holes.
7 ¶2; Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Consider
your ways.
8 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.
9 Ye looked for much, and lo, it came
to little; and when ye brought it home,
I did note blow upon it. Why? saith the
Lord of hosts. Because of my house
that is waste, and ye run every man to
his own house.
10 Therefore note the heaven over you is
stayed from dew, and the earth is stayed
from her fruit.
11 And I called for a drouth 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 labor of
the hands.
12 ¶2; 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.
13 Then spoke Haggai the Lord's
messenger in the Lord's message to the
people, saying, I am with you, saith the
Lord.
14 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 performed work
in the house of the Lord of hosts, their
God,
15 In the four and twentieth day of
the same month, in the second year of
Darius the king.
