Haggai 1
1 In the second year of the reign of king Darius, on the first day of the sixth month, the Lord sent a message through the prophet Haggai to Zerubbabel, son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua, son of Jehozadak, the high priest.
in anno secundo Darii regis in mense sexto in die una mensis factum est verbum Domini in manu Aggei prophetae ad Zorobabel filium Salathihel ducem Iuda et ad Iesum filium Iosedech sacerdotem magnum dicens
2 The Lord Almighty says this: the people say, “This isn't the proper time to rebuild the Lord's house.”
haec ait Dominus exercituum dicens populus iste dicit nondum venit tempus domus Domini aedificandae
3 Then the Lord sent a message through the prophet Haggai, saying,
et factum est verbum Domini in manu Aggei prophetae dicens
4 Is it the proper time for you to live in your paneled houses while this house remains a ruin?
numquid tempus vobis est ut habitetis in domibus laqueatis et domus ista deserta
5 So the Lord Almighty says this: Think about what you're doing!
et nunc haec dicit Dominus exercituum ponite corda vestra super vias vestras
6 You have sown much but harvested little. You eat but you're still hungry. You drink but you're still thirsty. You put on clothes but you're still cold. You work hard to earn money but put it in a bag full of holes.
seminastis multum et intulistis parum comedistis et non estis satiati bibistis et non estis inebriati operuistis vos et non estis calefacti et qui mercedes congregavit misit eas in sacculum pertusum
7 The Lord Almighty says this: Think about what you're doing!
haec dicit Dominus exercituum ponite corda vestra super vias vestras
8 Go into the hills and bring wood to build the house. This will please me and honor me, says the Lord.
ascendite in montem portate lignum et aedificate domum et acceptabilis mihi erit et glorificabor dicit Dominus
9 You were hoping for so much, but look, it turned out to be so little. Everything you brought home I blew away. And why was that? Because my house remains a ruin while you are preoccupied with building your own houses, declares the Lord Almighty.
respexistis ad amplius et ecce factum est minus et intulistis in domum et exsuflavi illud quam ob causam dicit Dominus exercituum quia domus mea deserta est et vos festinatis unusquisque in domum suam
10 That's why the clouds of heaven refused to send rain, and the earth refused to produce crops.
propter hoc super vos prohibiti sunt caeli ne darent rorem et terra prohibita est ne daret germen suum
11 I called for a drought on the land, on the hills, on the grain fields, on the vineyards, and on the olive groves—on whatever the earth produces—and on people and livestock, on everything you do!
et vocavi siccitatem super terram et super montes et super triticum et super vinum et super oleum et quaecumque profert humus et super homines et super iumenta et super omnem laborem manuum
12 Then Zerubbabel, son of Shealtiel, Joshua, son of Jehozadak, the high priest, together with all the remaining people, paid attention to what the Lord said, and to the words of Haggai the prophet that the Lord their God had sent. The people showed reverence before the Lord.
et audivit Zorobabel filius Salathihel et Iesus filius Iosedech sacerdos magnus et omnes reliquiae populi vocem Dei sui et verba Aggei prophetae sicut misit eum Dominus Deus eorum ad ipsos et timuit populus a facie Domini
13 Then Haggai, the Lord's messenger, delivered this message from the Lord telling the people, I am with you! says the Lord.
et dixit Aggeus nuntius Domini de nuntiis Domini populo dicens ego vobiscum dicit Dominus
14 The Lord inspired Zerubbabel, son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and Joshua, son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and all the remaining people. They came and began work on the house of the Lord Almighty.
et suscitavit Dominus spiritum Zorobabel filii Salathihel ducis Iuda et spiritum Iesu filii Iosedech sacerdotis magni et spiritum reliquorum de omni populo et ingressi sunt et faciebant opus in domo Domini exercituum Dei sui
15 This happened on the twenty-fourth day of the sixth month in the second year of the reign of king Darius.
in die vicesima et quarta mensis in sexto mense in anno secundo Darii regis
