Hageo 2
Leeser Old Testament
1In the seventh month, on the one and twentieth day of the month, came the word of the Lord by means of Haggai the prophet, saying,
2Do say to Zerubbabel the son of Shealthiel, the governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and to the residue of the people, saying,
3Who is there yet left among you that hath seen this house in its first glory? and how do ye see it now? is it not in comparison with it as nothing in your eyes?
4Yet now be strong, O Zerubbabel, saith the Lord, and be strong O Joshua, the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and be strong, all ye people of the land, saith the Lord, and do; for I am with you, saith the Lord of hosts,
5In accordance with the word that I covenanted with you when ye came out of Egypt, so will my spirit remain among you: fear nought.
6For thus hath said the Lord of hosts, Yet one thing more will I do, it is but little, when I will cause to quake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land;
7And I will cause to quake all the nations, and the precious things of all the nations shall come hither: and I will fill this house with glory, saith the Lord of hosts.
8Mine is the silver, and mine is the gold, saith the Lord of hosts.
9Greater shall be the glory of this latter house than that of the former, saith the Lord of hosts: and in this place will I give peace, saith the Lord of hosts.
10On the four and twentieth day of the ninth month, in the second year of Darius, came the word of the Lord by means of Haggai the prophet, saying,
11Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, Do ask the priests concerning the law, saying,
12Lo! if one should carry holy flesh in the corner of his garment, and touch with his corner bread, or pottage, or wine, or oil, or any food, shall it become holy? And the priests answered and said, No.
13Then said Haggai, If one that is unclean by a dead body shall touch any of these, will it become unclean? And the priests answered and said, It will become unclean.
14Then answered Haggai, and said, So is this people, and so is this nation before me, saith the Lord; and so are all works of their hands; and what they offer there is unclean.
15And now direct, I pray you, your heart from this day and upward, before the time that a stone was laid upon a stone in the temple of the Lord:
16Since those days were, when one came to a heap of sheaves of twenty in number, and there were but ten; when one came to the winepress for to draw off fifty measures out of the vat, and there were but twenty.
17I smote you with blasting and with mildew and with hail in all the labors of your hands: yet ye turned not back to me, saith the Lord.
18Direct, I pray you, your heart from this day and upward, from the four and twentieth day of the ninth month, even from the day that the foundation of the Lords temple was laid, direct your heart to this.
19Is the seed yet in the barn? yes, as yet the vine, and the figtree, and the pomegranate, and the olivetree, have not brought forth; but from this day will I bless you.
20And the word of the Lord came the second time unto Haggai on the four and twentieth day of the month, saying,
21Speak to Zerubbabel the governor of Judah, saying, I will cause to quake the heavens and the earth;
22And I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms, and I will destroy the strength of the kingdoms of the nations; and I will overthrow chariots, and those that ride in them; and the horses and their riders shall come down, every one by the sword of his brother.
23On that day, saith the Lord of hosts, will I take thee, O Zerubbabel, the son of Shealthiel, my servant, saith the Lord, and I will place thee as a signet; for of thee have I made choice, saith the Lord of hosts.
Reina-Valera 1909
1EN el mes séptimo, á los veinte y uno del mes, fué palabra de Jehová por mano del profeta Haggeo, diciendo:
2Habla ahora á Zorobabel hijo de Sealtiel, gobernador de Judá, y á Josué hijo de Josadac, gran sacerdote, y al resto del pueblo, diciendo:
3¿Quién ha quedado entre vosotros que haya visto esta casa en su primera gloria, y cual ahora la veis? ¿No es ella como nada delante de vuestros ojos?
4Pues ahora, Zorobabel, esfuérzate, dice Jehová; esfuérzate también Josué, hijo de Josadac, gran sacerdote; y cobra ánimo, pueblo todo de la tierra, dice Jehová, y obrad: porque yo soy con vosotros, dice Jehová de los ejércitos.
5Según el pacto que concerté con vosotros á vuestra salida de Egipto, así mi espíritu estará en medio de vosotros: no temáis.
6Porque así dice Jehová de los ejércitos: De aquí á poco aun haré yo temblar los cielos y la tierra, y la mar y la seca:
7Y haré temblar á todas las gentes, y vendrá el Deseado de todas las gentes; y henchiré esta casa de gloria, ha dicho Jehová de los ejércitos.
8Mía es la plata, y mío el oro, dice Jehová de los ejércitos.
9La gloria de aquesta casa postrera será mayor que la de la primera, ha dicho Jehová de los ejércitos; y daré paz en este lugar, dice Jehová de los ejércitos.
10A veinticuatro del noveno mes, en el segundo año de Darío, fué palabra de Jehová por mano del profeta Haggeo, diciendo:
11Así ha dicho Jehová de los ejércitos: Pregunta ahora á los sacerdotes acerca de la ley, diciendo:
12Si llevare alguno las carnes sagradas en la falda de su ropa, y con el vuelo de ella tocare el pan, ó la vianda, ó el vino, ó el aceite, ú otra cualquier comida, ¿será santificado? Y respondieron los sacerdotes, y dijeron: No.
13Y dijo Haggeo: Si un inmundo á causa de cuerpo muerto tocare alguna cosa de éstas, ¿será inmunda? Y respondieron los sacerdotes, y dijeron: Inmunda será.
14Y respondió Haggeo y dijo: Así es este pueblo, y esta gente, delante de mí, dice Jehová; y asimismo toda obra de sus manos; y todo lo que aquí ofrecen es inmundo.
15Ahora pues, poned vuestro corazón desde este día en adelante, antes que pusiesen piedra sobre piedra en el templo de Jehová,
16Antes que fuesen estas cosas, venían al montón de veinte hanegas, y había diez; venían al lagar para sacar cincuenta cántaros del lagar, y había veinte.
17Os herí con viento solano, y con tizoncillo, y con granizo en toda obra de vuestras manos; mas no os convertisteis á mí, dice Jehová.
18Pues poned ahora vuestro corazón desde este día en adelante, desde el día veinticuatro del noveno mes, desde el día que se echó el cimiento al templo de Jehová; poned vuestro corazón.
19¿Aun no está la simiente en el granero? Ni la vid, ni la higuera, ni el granado, ni el árbol de la oliva ha todavía florecido: mas desde aqueste día daré bendición.
20Y fué segunda vez palabra de Jehová á Haggeo, á los veinticuatro del mismo mes, diciendo:
21Habla á Zorobabel, gobernador de Judá, diciendo: Yo haré temblar los cielos y la tierra;
22Y trastornaré el trono de los reinos, y destruiré la fuerza del reino de las gentes; y trastornaré el carro, y los que en él suben; y vendrán abajo los caballos, y los que en ellos montan, cada cual por la espada de su hermano.
23En aquel día, dice Jehová de los ejércitos, te tomaré, oh Zorobabel, hijo de Sealtiel, siervo mío, dice Jehová, y ponerte he como anillo de sellar: porque yo te escogí, dice Jehová de los ejércitos.
King James Version
1In the seventh month, in the one and twentieth day of the month, came the word of the LORD by the prophet Haggai, saying,
2Speak 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,
3Who is left among you that saw this house in her first glory? and how do ye see it now? is it not in your eyes in comparison of it as nothing?
4Yet 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 am with you, saith the LORD of hosts:
5According to the word that I covenanted with you when ye came out of Egypt, so my spirit remaineth among you: fear ye not.
6For thus saith the LORD of hosts; Yet once, it is a little while, and I will shake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land;
7And 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.
8The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, saith the LORD of hosts.
9The 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.
10In the four and twentieth day of the ninth month, in the second year of Darius, came the word of the LORD by Haggai the prophet, saying,
11Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Ask now the priests concerning the law, saying,
12If one bear holy flesh in the skirt of his garment, and with his skirt do touch bread, or pottage, or wine, or oil, or any meat, shall it be holy? And the priests answered and said, No.
13Then said Haggai, If one that is unclean by a dead body touch any of these, shall it be unclean? And the priests answered and said, It shall be unclean.
14Then answered Haggai, and said, So is this people, and so is this nation before me, saith the LORD; and so is every work of their hands; and that which they offer there is unclean.
15And 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:
16Since those days were, when one came to an heap of twenty measures, there were but ten: when one came to the pressfat for to draw out fifty vessels out of the press, there were but twenty.
17I smote you with blasting and with mildew and with hail in all the labours of your hands; yet ye turned not to me, saith the LORD.
18Consider now from this day and upward, from the four and twentieth day of the ninth month, even from the day that the foundation of the LORD’s temple was laid, consider it.
19Is the seed yet in the barn? yea, 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 you.
20And again the word of the LORD came unto Haggai in the four and twentieth day of the month, saying,
21Speak to Zerubbabel, governor of Judah, saying, I will shake the heavens and the earth;
22And 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.
23In 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.
World English Bible
1In the seventh month, in the twenty-first day of the month, the LORD’s word came by Haggai the prophet, saying,
2“Speak now to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and to the remnant of the people, saying,
3‘Who is left among you who saw this house in its former glory? How do you see it now? Isn’t it in your eyes as nothing?
4Yet now be strong, Zerubbabel,’ says the LORD. ‘Be strong, Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest. Be strong, all you people of the land,’ says the LORD, ‘and work, for I am with you,’ says the LORD of Armies.
5This is the word that I covenanted with you when you came out of Egypt, and my Spirit lived among you. ‘Don’t be afraid.’
6For this is what the LORD of Armies says: ‘Yet once more, it is a little while, and I will shake the heavens, the earth, the sea, and the dry land;
7and I will shake all nations. The treasure of all nations will come, and I will fill this house with glory, says the LORD of Armies.
8The silver is mine, and the gold is mine,’ says the LORD of Armies.
9‘The latter glory of this house will be greater than the former,’ says the LORD of Armies; ‘and in this place I will give peace,’ says the LORD of Armies.”
10In the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, in the second year of Darius, the LORD’s word came by Haggai the prophet, saying,
11“The LORD of Armies says: Ask now the priests concerning the law, saying,
12‘If someone carries holy meat in the fold of his garment, and with his fold touches bread, stew, wine, oil, or any food, will it become holy?’” The priests answered, “No.”
13Then Haggai said, “If one who is unclean by reason of a dead body touches any of these, will it be unclean?” The priests answered, “It will be unclean.”
14Then Haggai answered, “‘So is this people, and so is this nation before me,’ says the LORD; ‘and so is every work of their hands. That which they offer there is unclean.
15Now, please consider from this day and backward, before a stone was laid on a stone in the LORD’s temple.
16Through all that time, when one came to a heap of twenty measures, there were only ten. When one came to the wine vat to draw out fifty, there were only twenty.
17I struck you with blight, mildew, and hail in all the work of your hands; yet you didn’t turn to me,’ says the LORD.
18‘Consider, please, from this day and backward, from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, since the day that the foundation of the LORD’s temple was laid, consider it.
19Is the seed yet in the barn? Yes, the vine, the fig tree, the pomegranate, and the olive tree haven’t produced. From today I will bless you.’”
20The LORD’s word came the second time to Haggai in the twenty-fourth day of the month, saying,
21“Speak to Zerubbabel, governor of Judah, saying, ‘I will shake the heavens and the earth.
22I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms. I will destroy the strength of the kingdoms of the nations. I will overthrow the chariots and those who ride in them. The horses and their riders will come down, everyone by the sword of his brother.
23In that day, says the LORD of Armies, I will take you, Zerubbabel my servant, the son of Shealtiel,’ says the LORD, ‘and will make you like a signet ring, for I have chosen you,’ says the LORD of Armies.”
