2 in the seventh, on the twenty-first of the month, the word of Yahweh was by the hand of Haggai the prophet, saying, 2 “Speak now to Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, the governor of Judah, and to Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and to the remnant of the people, saying, 3 ‘Who is the one left among you who saw this house in its former glory? How are you seeing it now? Compared with that, is it not like nothing in your eyes? 4 But now, be strong, Zerubbabel!’—the declaration of Yahweh—‘and be strong, Joshua son of Jehozadak, you high priest, and be strong, all people of the land!’—the declaration of Yahweh—‘and work, for I am with you!’—the declaration of Yahweh of Armies. 5 ‘The word that I covenanted with you when you came out of Egypt, and my Spirit remains in your midst. Do not fear!’ 6 For thus says Yahweh of Armies: ‘Yet once, it will be a little while,
and I will be shaking the heavens and the earth
and the sea and the dry land!
7 And I will shake all of the nations,
and they will come with the treasure of all of the nations,
and I will fill this house with glory,’ says Yahweh of Armies. 8 ‘The silver is mine, and the gold is mine’—the declaration of Yahweh of Armies. 9 ‘The latter glory of this house will be greater than the former,’ says Yahweh of Armies, ‘and in this place I will give peace’—the declaration of Yahweh of Armies.”
10 On the twenty-fourth of the ninth, in the second year of Darius, the word of Yahweh was to Haggai the prophet, saying, 11 “Thus says Yahweh of Armies: ‘Now ask the priests about the law, saying, 12 “If a man carries holy flesh in the fold of his garment and he touches with his fold upon bread or upon stew or upon wine or upon oil or upon any food, does it become holy?” ’ ” And the priests answered and said, “No.” 13 Then Haggai said, “If the unclean by a person touches any of these, will it be unclean?” And the priests answered and said, “It will be unclean.” 14 And Haggai answered and said, “‘Thus is this people and thus is this nation to my face!’—the declaration of Yahweh—‘and thus is every work of their hands, and what they offer there, it is unclean! 15 And now, do set your hearts from before until this day, from before the placing of stone upon stone in the temple of Yahweh. 16 From their being, one came to a heap of twenty but there were ten; one came to a vat to draw out fifty from the press but there were twenty. 17 I struck you with blight and with mildew and with hail, all of the work of your hands, but it was not you to me’—the declaration of Yahweh. 18 ‘Now set your hearts from before until this day, from the day that the temple of Yahweh was founded until this twenty-fourth day of the ninth. Set your hearts! 19 Is the seed yet in the storehouse? And the vine and the fig tree and the pomegranate tree and the olive tree have not yet produced! From this day I will bless you!’ ”
20 And the word of Yahweh was to Haggai a second time on the twenty-fourth of the month, saying, 21 “Speak to Zerubbabel, the governor of Judah, saying,
‘I am shaking the heavens and the earth.
22 And I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms
and I will destroy the strength of the kingdoms of the nations!
And I will overthrow the chariot and its rider,
and the horses and their riders will fall,
a man by the sword of his brother.
23 On that day’—the declaration of Yahweh of Armies—‘I will take you, Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, my servant’—the declaration of Yahweh— ‘and I will make you like a signet ring, for I have chosen you’—the declaration of Yahweh of Armies!’ ”
