  • 4. Is it a time for you to be living in roofed houses while this house is a waste?
  • 5. For this cause the Lord of armies has said, Give thought to your ways.
  • 6. Much has been planted, but little got in; you take food, but have not enough; you take drink, but are not full; you are clothed, but no one is warm; and he who gets payment for his work, gets it to put it into a bag full of holes.

  • 8. Go up to the hills and get wood and put up the house; and I will take pleasure in it and be honoured, says the Lord.

  • 12. Then Zerubbabel, the son of Shealtiel, and Joshua, the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and all the rest of the people, gave ear to the voice of the Lord their God and to the words of Haggai the prophet, because the Lord their God had sent him, and the people were in fear before the Lord.
  • 13. Then Haggai, whom the Lord had sent to give his words to the people, said, I am with you, says the Lord.
  • 14. And the spirit of Zerubbabel, the son of Shealtiel, ruler of Judah, was moved by the Lord, as was the spirit of Joshua, the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and the spirit of all the rest of the people; and they came and did work in the house of the Lord of armies, their God.
  • 15. On the twenty-fourth day of the month, in the sixth month, in the second year of Darius the king.
