1 In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, on the first day of the month, the word of Yahweh was by the hand of Haggai the prophet to the governor of Judah, Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, and to the high priest, Joshua son of Jehozadak, saying, 2 “Thus says Yahweh of Armies, saying: ‘This people, they say, “The time has not come to rebuild the house of Yahweh.”’” 3 Then the word of Yahweh came by the hand of Haggai the prophet, saying, 4 “Is it a time for you yourselves to live in your paneled houses, while this house is desolate? 5 So now, thus says Yahweh of Armies: ‘Set your heart upon your ways!
6 You have sown much, but you have brought in little.
You eat, but not to satiety.
You drink, but not enough to become drunk.
One wears clothes, but he does not warm himself.
And the wage earner earns wages into a punctured bag!’ 7 Thus says Yahweh of Armies: ‘Set your heart upon your ways!

and the earth withholds its produce.
11 And I have called for desolation upon the land and upon the mountains
and upon the grain and upon the new wine
and upon the oil and upon what the ground produces
and upon the man and upon the beast
and upon all the labor of your hands!’”
12 Then Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel and Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and all of the remnant of the people listened to the voice of Yahweh their God and to the words of Haggai the prophet, because Yahweh their God had sent him and the people feared the face of Yahweh. 13 Then Haggai, the messenger of Yahweh, spoke the message of Yahweh to the people, saying, “‘I am with you!’—the declaration of Yahweh.” 14 And Yahweh awakened the spirit of the governor of Judah, Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, and the spirit of Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and the spirit of all of the remnant of the people, and they came and did the work on the house of Yahweh of Armies, their God, 15 on the twenty-fourth day of the sixth month in the second year of Darius the king,
