In the secondH8147 yearH8141 of DariusH1867 the kingH4428, in the sixthH8345 monthH2320, in the firstH259 dayH3117 of the monthH2320, came the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 byH3027 HaggaiH2292 the prophetH5030 unto ZerubbabelH2216 the sonH1121 of ShealtielH7597, governorH6346 of JudahH3063, and to JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of JosedechH3087, the highH1419 priestH3548, sayingH559, {by: Heb. by the hand of} {governor: or, captain}
Thus speakethH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, sayingH559, This peopleH5971 sayH559, The timeH6256 is not comeH935, the timeH6256 that the LORD'SH3068 houseH1004 should be builtH1129.
Then came the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 byH3027 HaggaiH2292 the prophetH5030, sayingH559,
Is it timeH6256 for you, O ye, to dwellH3427 in your cieledH5603 housesH1004, and this houseH1004 lie wasteH2720?
Now therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; ConsiderH7760+H3824 your waysH1870. {Consider…: Heb. Set your heart on your ways}
Ye have sownH2232 muchH7235, and bringH935 in littleH4592; ye eatH398, but ye have not enoughH7654; ye drinkH8354, but ye are not filled with drinkH7937; ye clotheH3847 you, but there is none warmH2527; and he that earneth wagesH7936 earneth wagesH7936 to put it into a bagH6872 with holesH5344. {with holes: Heb. pierced through}
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; ConsiderH7760+H3824 your waysH1870. {Consider…: Heb. Set your heart on your ways}
Go upH5927 to the mountainH2022, and bringH935 woodH6086, and buildH1129 the houseH1004; and I will take pleasureH7521 in it, and I will be glorifiedH3513, saithH559 the LORDH3068.
Ye lookedH6437 for muchH7235, and, lo, it came to littleH4592; and when ye broughtH935 it homeH1004, I did blowH5301 upon it. Why? saithH5002 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635. BecauseH3282 of mine houseH1004 that is wasteH2720, and ye runH7323 every manH376 unto his own houseH1004. {blow…: or, blow it away}
Therefore the heavenH8064 over you is stayedH3607 from dewH2919, and the earthH776 is stayedH3607 from her fruitH2981.
And I calledH7121 for a droughtH2721 upon the landH776, and upon the mountainsH2022, and upon the cornH1715, and upon the new wineH8492, and upon the oilH3323, and upon that which the groundH127 bringeth forthH3318, and upon menH120, and upon cattleH929, and upon all the labourH3018 of the handsH3709.
Then ZerubbabelH2216 the sonH1121 of ShealtielH7597, and JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of JosedechH3087, the highH1419 priestH3548, with all the remnantH7611 of the peopleH5971, obeyedH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 their GodH430, and the wordsH1697 of HaggaiH2292 the prophetH5030, as the LORDH3068 their GodH430 had sentH7971 him, and the peopleH5971 did fearH3372 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068.
Then spakeH559 HaggaiH2292 the LORD'SH3068 messengerH4397 in the LORD'SH3068 messageH4400 unto the peopleH5971, sayingH559, I am with you, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
And the LORDH3068 stirred upH5782 the spiritH7307 of ZerubbabelH2216 the sonH1121 of ShealtielH7597, governorH6346 of JudahH3063, and the spiritH7307 of JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of JosedechH3087, the highH1419 priestH3548, and the spiritH7307 of all the remnantH7611 of the peopleH5971; and they cameH935 and didH6213 workH4399 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, their GodH430,
In the fourH702 and twentiethH6242 dayH3117 of the sixthH8345 monthH2320, in the secondH8147 yearH8141 of DariusH1867 the kingH4428.

And she saidH559, As the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 livethH2416, I haveH3426 not a cakeH4580, but an handfulH4393+H3709 of mealH7058 in a barrelH3537, and a littleH4592 oilH8081 in a cruseH6835: and, behold, I am gatheringH7197 twoH8147 sticksH6086, that I may go inH935 and dressH6213 it for me and my sonH1121, that we may eatH398 it, and dieH4191.
I will bring it forthH3318, saithH5002 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, and it shall enterH935 into the houseH1004 of the thiefH1590, and into the houseH1004 of him that swearethH7650 falselyH8267 by my nameH8034: and it shall remainH3885 in the midstH8432 of his houseH1004, and shall consumeH3615 it with the timberH6086 thereof and the stonesH68 thereof.
And your strengthH3581 shall be spentH8552 in vainH7385: for your landH776 shall not yieldH5414 her increaseH2981, neither shall the treesH6086 of the landH776 yieldH5414 their fruitsH6529.

Thou shalt carryH3318 muchH7227 seedH2233 outH3318 into the fieldH7704, and shalt gatherH622 but littleH4592 inH622; for the locustH697 shall consumeH2628 it.
Thou shalt plantH5193 vineyardsH3754, and dressH5647 them, but shalt neither drinkH8354 of the wineH3196, nor gatherH103 the grapes; for the wormsH8438 shall eatH398 them.
Thou shalt have olive treesH2132 throughout all thy coastsH1366, but thou shalt not anointH5480 thyself with the oilH8081; for thine oliveH2132 shall castH5394 his fruit.
But since we left offH2308 to burn incenseH6999 to the queenH4446 of heavenH8064, and to pour outH5258 drink offeringsH5262 unto her, we have wantedH2637 all things, and have been consumedH8552 by the swordH2719 and by the famineH7458.
Then there was a famineH7458 in the daysH3117 of DavidH1732 threeH7969 yearsH8141, yearH8141 afterH310 yearH8141; and DavidH1732 enquiredH1245 ofH6440 the LORDH3068. And the LORDH3068 answeredH559, It is for SaulH7586, and for his bloodyH1818 houseH1004, because he slewH4191 the GibeonitesH1393. {enquired…: Heb. sought the face, etc}
Moreover he saidH559 unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, behold, I will breakH7665 the staffH4294 of breadH3899 in JerusalemH3389: and they shall eatH398 breadH3899 by weightH4948, and with careH1674; and they shall drinkH8354 waterH4325 by measureH4884, and with astonishmentH8078:
A fruitfulH6529 landH776 into barrennessH4420, for the wickednessH7451 of them that dwellH3427 therein. {barrenness: Heb. saltiness}
That they may wantH2637 breadH3899 and waterH4325, and be astoniedH8074 oneH376 with anotherH251, and consume awayH4743 for their iniquityH5771.
YeaH3588, tenH6235 acresH6776 of vineyardH3754 shall yieldH6213 oneH259 bathH1324, and the seedH2233 of an homerH2563 shall yieldH6213 an ephahH374.
Because the groundH127 is chaptH2865, for there was no rainH1653 in the earthH776, the plowmenH406 were ashamedH954, they coveredH2645 their headsH7218.
For they shall eatH398, and not have enoughH7646: they shall commit whoredomH2181, and shall not increaseH6555: because they have left offH5800 to take heedH8104 to the LORDH3068.
For they have sownH2232 the windH7307, and they shall reapH7114 the whirlwindH5492: it hath no stalkH7054: the budH6780 shall yieldH6213 no mealH7058: ifH194 so be it yieldH6213, the strangersH2114 shall swallow it upH1104. {stalk: or, standing corn}
The fieldH7704 is wastedH7703, the landH127 mournethH56; for the cornH1715 is wastedH7703: the new wineH8492 is dried upH3001, the oilH3323 languishethH535.
Be ye ashamedH3001, O ye husbandmenH406; howlH3213, O ye vinedressersH3755, for the wheatH2406 and for the barleyH8184; because the harvestH7105 of the fieldH7704 is perishedH6.
The vineH1612 is dried upH3001, and the fig treeH8384 languishethH535; the pomegranateH7416 tree, the palm treeH8558 also, and the apple treeH8598, even all the treesH6086 of the fieldH7704, are witheredH3001: because joyH8342 is withered awayH3001 from the sonsH1121 of menH120.
GirdH2296 yourselves, and lamentH5594, ye priestsH3548: howlH3213, ye ministersH8334 of the altarH4196: comeH935, lie all nightH3885 in sackclothH8242, ye ministersH8334 of my GodH430: for the meat offeringH4503 and the drink offeringH5262 is withholdenH4513 from the houseH1004 of your GodH430.
And I also have givenH5414 you cleannessH5356 of teethH8127 in all your citiesH5892, and wantH2640 of breadH3899 in all your placesH4725: yet have ye not returnedH7725 unto me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
And also I have withholdenH4513 the rainH1653 from you, when there were yet threeH7969 monthsH2320 to the harvestH7105: and I caused it to rainH4305 upon oneH259 cityH5892, and caused it not to rainH4305 upon anotherH259 cityH5892: oneH259 pieceH2513 was rainedH4305 upon, and the pieceH2513 whereupon it rainedH4305 not witheredH3001.
So twoH8147 or threeH7969 citiesH5892 wanderedH5128 unto oneH259 cityH5892, to drinkH8354 waterH4325; but they were not satisfiedH7646: yet have ye not returnedH7725 unto me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
I have smittenH5221 you with blastingH7711 and mildewH3420: when your gardensH1593 and your vineyardsH3754 and your fig treesH8384 and your olive treesH2132 increasedH7235, the palmerwormH1501 devouredH398 them: yet have ye not returnedH7725 unto me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068. {when…: or, the multitude of your gardens, etc. did the palmerworm}
Thou shalt eatH398, but not be satisfiedH7646; and thy casting downH3445 shall be in the midstH7130 of thee; and thou shalt take holdH5253, but shalt not deliverH6403; and that which thou deliverestH6403 will I give upH5414 to the swordH2719.
Thou shalt sowH2232, but thou shalt not reapH7114; thou shalt treadH1869 the olivesH2132, but thou shalt not anointH5480 thee with oilH8081; and sweet wineH8492, but shalt not drinkH8354 wineH3196.
For beforeH6440 these daysH3117 there wasH1961 no hireH7939 for manH120, nor any hireH7939 for beastH929; neither was there any peaceH7965 to him that went outH3318 or came inH935 because of the afflictionH6862: for I setH7971 all menH120 every oneH376 against his neighbourH7453. {there was…: or, the hire of man became nothing}
If ye will not hearH8085, and if ye will not layH7760 it to heartH3820, to giveH5414 gloryH3519 unto my nameH8034, saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, I will even sendH7971 a curseH3994 upon you, and I will curseH779 your blessingsH1293: yea, I have cursedH779 them already, because ye do not layH7760 it to heartH3820.
Ye are cursedH779 with a curseH3994: for ye have robbedH6906 me, even this whole nationH1471.
BringH935 ye all the tithesH4643 into the storehouseH214, that there may be meatH2964 in mine houseH1004, and proveH974 me now herewithH2063, saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, if I will not openH6605 you the windowsH699 of heavenH8064, and pour you outH7324 a blessingH1293, that there shall not be room enoughH1767 to receive it. {pour…: Heb. empty out}
And I will rebukeH1605 the devourerH398 for your sakes, and he shall not destroyH7843 the fruitsH6529 of your groundH127; neither shall your vineH1612 cast her fruitH7921 before the time in the fieldH7704, saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635. {destroy: Heb. corrupt}
