\v 1 In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, in the first day of the month, came the word of the LORD by Haggai the prophet to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, saying,  
\v 2 Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, This people say, The time is not come, the time that the LORD'S house should be built.  
\v 3 Then came the word of the LORD by Haggai the prophet, saying,  
\v 4 \add Is it\add* time for you, O ye, to dwell in your ceiled houses, and this house \add lie\add* waste?  
\v 5 Now therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts; Consider your ways.  
\v 6 Ye have sown much, and bring in little; ye eat, but ye have not enough; ye drink, but ye are not filled with drink; ye clothe yourselves, but there is none warm; and he that earneth wages earneth wages \add to put it\add* into a bag with holes.  
\v 7 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Consider your ways.  
\v 8 Go up to the mountain, and bring wood, and build the house; and I will take pleasure in it, and I will be glorified, saith the LORD.  
\v 9 Ye looked for much, and lo, \add it came\add* to little; and when ye brought \add it\add* home, I did blow upon it. Why? saith the LORD of hosts. Because of my house that \add is\add* waste, and ye run every man to his own house.  
\v 10 Therefore the heaven over you is stayed from dew, and the earth is stayed \add from\add* her fruit.  
\v 11 And I called for a drouth upon the land, and upon the mountains, and upon the corn, and upon the new wine, and upon the oil, and upon \add that\add* which the ground bringeth forth, and upon men, and upon cattle, and upon all the labor of the hands.  
\v 12 Then Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, with all the remnant of the people, obeyed the voice of the LORD their God, and the words of Haggai the prophet, as the LORD their God had sent him, and the people did fear before the LORD.  
\v 13 Then spoke Haggai the LORD'S messenger in the LORD'S message to the people, saying, I \add am\add* with you, saith the LORD.  
\v 14 And the LORD stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people; and they came and performed work in the house of the LORD of hosts, their God,  
\v 15 In the four and twentieth day of the same month, in the second year of Darius the king.

\v 1 In the seventh \add month\add* , in the one and twentieth \add day\add* of the month, came the word of the LORD by the prophet Haggai, saying,  
\v 2 Speak now to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Josedech the high priest, and to the residue of the people, saying,  
\v 3 Who \add is\add* left among you that saw this house in her first glory? and how do ye see it now? \add is it\add* not in your eyes in comparison of it as nothing?  
\v 4 Yet now be strong, O Zerubbabel, saith the LORD; and be strong, O Joshua, son of Josedech, the high priest; and be strong, all ye people of the land, saith the LORD, and work: for I \add am\add* with you, saith the LORD of hosts:  
\v 5 \add According to\add* the word that I covenanted with you when ye came out of Egypt, so my spirit remaineth among you: fear ye not.  
\v 6 For thus saith the LORD of hosts; Yet once, it \add is\add* a little while, and I will shake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry \add land\add* ;  
\v 7 And I will shake all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, saith the LORD of hosts.  
\v 8 The silver \add is\add* mine, and the gold \add is\add* mine, saith the LORD of hosts.  
\v 9 The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former, saith the LORD of hosts: and in this place will I give peace, saith the LORD of hosts.  
\v 10 In the four and twentieth \add day\add* of the ninth \add month\add* , in the second year of Darius, came the word of the LORD by Haggai the prophet, saying,  
\v 11 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, Ask now the priests \add concerning\add* the law, saying,  
\v 12 If one shall bear holy flesh in the skirt of his garment, and with his skirt shall touch bread, or pottage, or wine, or oil, or any food, shall it be holy? And the priests answered and said, No.  
\v 13 Then said Haggai, If \add one that is\add* unclean by a dead body shall touch any of these, shall it be unclean? And the priests answered and said, It shall be unclean.  
\v 14 Then answered Haggai, and said, So \add is\add* this people, and so \add is\add* this nation before me, saith the LORD; and so \add is\add* every work of their hands; and that which they offer there \add is\add* unclean.  
\v 15 And now, I pray you, consider from this day and upward, from before a stone was laid upon a stone in the temple of the LORD:  
\v 16 Since those \add days\add* were, when \add one\add* came to a heap of twenty \add measures\add* , there were \add but\add* ten: when \add one\add* came to the press-vat to draw out fifty \add vessels\add* out of the press, there were \add but\add* twenty.  
\v 17 I smote you with blasting and with mildew and with hail in all the labors of your hands; yet ye \add turned\add* not to me, saith the LORD.  
\v 18 Consider now from this day, and upward, from the four and twentieth day of the ninth \add month\add* , \add even\add* from the day that the foundation of the LORD'S temple was laid, consider \add it\add* .  
\v 19 Is the seed yet in the barn? yes, as yet the vine, and the fig-tree, and the pomegranate, and the olive-tree, hath not brought forth: from this day will I bless \add you\add* .  
\v 20 And again the word of the LORD came to Haggai in the four and twentieth \add day\add* of the month, saying,  
\v 21 Speak to Zerubbabel, governor of Judah, saying, I will shake the heavens and the earth;  
\v 22 And I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms, and I will destroy the strength of the kingdoms of the heathen: and I will overthrow the chariots, and those that ride in them; and the horses and their riders shall come down, every one by the sword of his brother.  
\v 23 In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, will I take thee, O Zerubbabel, my servant, the son of Shealtiel, saith the LORD, and will make thee as a signet; for I have chosen thee, saith the LORD of hosts.
