BrLXXΔιότι πρὸ τῶν ἡμερῶν ἐκείνων ὁ μισθὸς τῶν ἀνθρώπων οὐκ ἔσται εἰς ὄνησιν, καὶ ὁ μισθὸς τῶν κτηνῶν οὐχ ὑπάρξει, καὶ τῷ ἐκπορευομένῳ καὶ τῷ εἰσπορευομένῳ οὐκ ἔσται εἰρήνη ἀπὸ τῆς θλίψεως· καὶ ἐξαποστελῶ πάντας τοὺς ἀνθρώπους, ἕκαστον ἐπὶ τὸν πλησίον αὐτοῦ.

BrTrFor before those days the wages of men could not be profitable, and there could be no hire of cattle, and there could be no peace by reason of the affliction to him that went out or to him that came in: for I would have let loose all men, every one against his neighbour.

ULTFor before those days
 ⇔ no crops were gathered in by anyone,
 ⇔ there was no profit for either man or beast,
 ⇔ and there was no peace from enemies for anyone going or coming.
 ⇔ I had set every person each against his neighbor.

USTBefore you started to rebuild the temple, your fields gave no crops, no return for either man or beast working in them. And people were afraid to go anywhere because I had caused people to be against each other.

BSBFor before those days neither man nor beast received wages, nor was there safety from the enemy for anyone who came or went, for I had turned every man against his neighbor.


OEBFor before those days there were no wages for people or animals. No one could go out or return safe from enemies, because I set each against their neighbour.

WEBBEFor before those days there was no wages for man nor any wages for an animal, neither was there any peace to him who went out or came in, because of the adversary. For I set all men everyone against his neighbour.

WMBB (Same as above)

NETBefore that time there was no compensation for man or animal, nor was there any relief from adversity for those who came and went, because I had pitted everybody – each one – against everyone else.

LSVFor before those days there has been no hiring of man,
Indeed, a hiring of beasts there is none; And to him who is going out,
And to him who is coming in,
There is no peace because of the adversary,
And I send all men—each against his neighbor.

FBVBefore that time there wasn't enough[fn] for people or for animals. No one could live normally because they were not safe from their enemies, and I set everyone against each other.


8:10 This verse seems to be referring more to having enough to eat rather than money which was an uncommon commodity at that time.

T4TBefore you started to rebuild the temple, no one could hire men or animals to work for them, because there was no money to pay for them. And people were afraid to go anywhere because I had caused people to oppose each other, and they thought that there were enemies everywhere.

LEBFor before those days there was no wage for people or for animals, and there was no safety from the enemy for those who went out or those who came in, and I sent each person against one another.[fn]


8:10 Literally “his neighbor”

BBEFor before those days there was no payment for a man's work, or for the use of a beast, and there was no peace for him who went out or him who came in, because of the attacker: for I had every man turned against his neighbour.
