Haggai

Chapter 1

1 In the second year of Darius the king,
in the sixth month,
in the first day of the month,
came the word/'doctrinal communication' {dabar} of Jehovah/God
by Haggai, the prophet,
unto Zerubbabel,
the son of Shealtiel,
governor of Judah,
and to Joshua,
the son of Josedech,
the high priest, saying, 2
"Thus spoke Jehovah/God of the armies/hosts, saying,
'This people say,
'The time is not come,
the time that the Jehovah/God 's house should be built.' "

3 Then came the word/'doctrinal communication' {dabar}
of Jehovah/God by Haggai, the prophet, saying, 4
"Is it time for you,
O you all,
to dwell in your ceiled houses,
and this house lie waste?"

5 Now therefore thus said Jehovah/God of the armies/hosts,
"Consider your Ways."

6 "You all have sown much,
and bring in little.

You eat, but you have not enough.

You drink, but you all are not filled with drink.

You all clothe yourselves,
but no one is warm.

And he who earns wages
earns wages to put it into a bag with holes."

7 Thus said Jehovah/God of the armies/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," said Jehovah/God.

9 "You all looked for much,
and, lo, it came to little.

And when you all brought it home,
I did blow upon it.

Why?"

said Jehovah/God of the armies/hosts.

"Because of My house that is waste,
and you all run every man unto his own house. 10

Therefore the heaven over you is stayed from dew,
and the earth is stayed from her fruit. 11

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 brings forth,
and upon men, and upon cattle,
and upon all the labor of the hands."

12 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 Jehovah/God their 'Elohiym/Godhead,
and the words of Haggai the prophet,
as Jehovah/God their 'Elohiym/Godhead had sent him,
and the people did fear before Jehovah/God.

13 Then spoke Haggai,
the Jehovah/God 's messenger
in Jehovah/God 's message unto the people, saying,
"I am with you," said Jehovah/God.

14 And Jehovah/God 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 Jehovah/God of the armies/hosts,
their 'Elohiym/Godhead . . .15
in the four and twentieth day of the sixth month,
in the second year of Darius the king.
