1In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, in the first day of the month, came the word of Jehovah by Haggai the prophet unto Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, saying,

2Thus speaketh Jehovah of hosts, saying, This people say, It is not the time [for us] to come, the time for Jehovah`s house to be built.

3Then came the word of Jehovah by Haggai the prophet, saying,

4Is it a time for you yourselves to dwell in your ceiled houses, while this house lieth waste?

5Now therefore thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Consider your ways.

6Ye 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.

7Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Consider your ways.
