King James
VersionZephaniah 3. The
Book of Haggai
|
Chapter 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 the
LORD by Haggai the prophet unto Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel,
governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest,
saying,
Matt 1:12
| 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. | 3 | Then came
the word of the LORD by Haggai the prophet, saying, |
4 | Is it time for you, O ye, to dwell in your
cieled houses, and this house lie waste? |
5 |
Now therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts; Consider your ways. |
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. |
7 | Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Consider your
ways. |
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. |
9 |
Ye looked for much, and, lo it came to little; and when ye brought it home, I
did blow upon it. Why? saith the LORD of hosts. Because of mine house that is
waste, and ye run every man unto his own house. |
10 | Therefore the heaven over you is stayed
from dew, and the earth is stayed from her fruit. |
11 | And I called for a drought upon the land,
and upon the mountains, and upon the corn, 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. |
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. |
13 | Then spake Haggai the LORD's messenger in
the LORD's message unto the people, saying, I am with you, saith the
LORD. | 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 did work in the house of the LORD of hosts, their God, |
15 |
In the four and twentieth day of the sixth month, in the second year of
Darius the king. |
