CHAP. I. 1 The time of the prophecie of Haggai. 8 An exhortation to build the Temple againe.


1   In the second yeere of King note Darius, in the sixt moneth, the first day of the moneth, came þe; worde of the Lorde (by the ministery of the Prophet Haggai) vnto note Zerubbabel the sonne of Shealtiel, a prince of Iudah, and to Iehoshua the sonne of Iehozadak the hie Priest, saying,


2   Thus speaketh the Lorde of hostes, saying, This people say, The time is not yet come, note that the Lords House should be builded.


3   Then came the worde of the Lorde by the ministerie of the Prophet Haggai, saying,


4   Is it time for your selues to dwell in your note sieled houses, and this House lie waste?


5   Now therefore thus saith þe; Lord of hostes, Consider your owne wayes in your hearts.


6    noteYe haue sowen much, and bring in litle: ye eate, but ye haue not ynough: ye drinke, but ye are not filled: ye clothe you, but ye be not warme: and he that earneth wages, putteth the wages into a broken bagge.


7   Thus sayth the Lorde of hostes, Consider your owne wayes in your hearts.


8   Goe note vp to the mountaine, & bring wood, and build this House, and note I wil be fauourable in it, and I will note be glorified, sayth the Lord.


9   Ye looked for much, and lo, it came to litle: and when ye brought it home, I did blowe note vpon it. And why, sayth the Lord of hostes? Because of mine House that is waste, and ye runne euery man vnto his owne house.


10   Therefore the heauen ouer you stayed it selfe from dewe, and the earth stayed her fruite.


11   And I called for a drought vpon the land, and vpon the mountaines, & vpon the corne, and vpon the wine, and vpon the oyle, vpon all that the ground bringeth foorth: both vpon men and vpon cattell, and vpon all the labour of the hands.


12   When Zerubbabel the sonne of Shealtiel, and Iehoshua the sonne of Iehozadak the hie Priest with all the remnant of the people, heard the note voyce of the Lord their God, & the wordes of the Prophet Haggai (as the Lorde their God had sent him) then the people did feare before the Lorde.


13   Then spake Haggai the Lords messenger in the Lords message vnto the people, saying, I am with you, sayth the Lord.


14   And the Lord stirred vp note the spirite of Zerubbabel, Two questions asked. the sonne of Shealtiel a prince of Iudah, and the spirit of Iehoshua the sonne of Iehozadak the hie Priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people, and they came, and did the worke in the House of the Lorde of hostes their God.
