< Haggai 1 >

1 In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, in the first day of the month, came the word of Yhwh by Haggai the prophet unto Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, saying,
In anno secundo Darii regis, in mense sexto, in die una mensis, factum est verbum Domini in manu Aggæi prophetæ, ad Zorobabel, filium Salathiel, ducem Juda, et ad Jesum, filium Josedec, sacerdotem magnum, dicens:
2 Thus speaketh Yhwh of Armies, saying, This people say, The time is not come, the time that Yhwh's house should be built.
Hæc ait Dominus exercituum, dicens: Populus iste dicit: Nondum venit tempus domus Domini ædificandæ.
3 Then came the word of Yhwh by Haggai the prophet, saying,
Et factum est verbum Domini in manu Aggæi prophetæ, dicens:
4 Is it time for you, O ye, to dwell in your cieled houses, and this house lie waste?
Numquid tempus vobis est ut habitetis in domibus laqueatis, et domus ista deserta?
5 Now therefore thus saith Yhwh of Armies; Consider your ways.
Et nunc hæc dicit Dominus exercituum: Ponite corda vestra super vias vestras.
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 you, but there is none warm; and he that earneth wages earneth wages to put it into a bag with 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 Thus saith Yhwh of Armies; Consider your ways.
Hæc dicit Dominus exercituum: Ponite corda vestra super vias vestras;
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 Yhwh.
ascendite in montem, portate ligna, et ædificate domum: et acceptabilis mihi erit, et glorificabor, dicit Dominus.
9 Ye looked for much, and, lo, it came to little; and when ye brought it home, I did blow upon it. Why? saith Yhwh of Armies. Because of mine house that is waste, and ye run every man unto his own house.
Respexistis ad amplius, et ecce factum est minus; et intulistis in domum, et exsufflavi illud: quam ob causam? dicit Dominus exercituum: quia domus mea deserta est, et vos festinatis unusquisque in domum suam.
10 Therefore the heaven over you is stayed from dew, and the earth is stayed from her fruit.
Propter hoc super vos prohibiti sunt cæli ne darent rorem, et terra prohibita est ne daret germen suum:
11 And I called for a drought upon the land, and upon the mountains, and upon the grain, and upon the new wine, and upon the oil, and upon that which the ground bringeth forth, and upon men, and upon cattle, and upon all the labour of the hands.
et vocavi siccitatem super terram, et super montes, et super triticum, et super vinum, et super oleum, et quæcumque profert humus, et super homines, et super jumenta, et super omnem laborem manuum.
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 Yhwh their God, and the words of Haggai the prophet, as Yhwh their God had sent him, and the people did fear before Yhwh.
Et audivit Zorobabel, filius Salathiel, et Jesus, filius Josedec, sacerdos magnus, et omnes reliquiæ populi, vocem Domini Dei sui, et verba Aggæi prophetæ, sicut misit eum Dominus Deus eorum ad eos, et timuit populus a facie Domini.
13 Then spake Haggai Yhwh's messenger in Yhwh's message unto the people, saying, I am with you, saith Yhwh.
Et dixit Aggæus, nuntius Domini de nuntiis Domini, populo dicens: Ego vobiscum sum, dicit Dominus.
14 And Yhwh 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 did work in the house of Yhwh of Armies, their God,
Et suscitavit Dominus spiritum Zorobabel, filii Salathiel, ducis Juda, et spiritum Jesu, filii Josedec, sacerdotis magni, et spiritum reliquorum de omni populo: et ingressi sunt, et faciebant opus in domo Domini exercituum, Dei sui.
15 In the four and twentieth day of the sixth month, in the second year of Darius the king.
In die vigesima et quarta mensis, in sexto mense, in anno secundo Darii regis.
