Haggaï zegt dat de tempel herbouwd moet worden
1 Toen Darius twee jaar koning van Perzië[a] was, op de eerste dag van de zesde maand, zei de Heer tegen Haggaï dat Hij een boodschap had voor Zerubbabel, de zoon van Sealtiël, en voor Jozua, de zoon van Jozadak. Zerubbabel[b] was de bestuurder van Juda en Jozua was de hogepriester. 2 Haggaï moest tegen hen zeggen:
"Dit zegt de Heer van de hemelse legers: Dit volk zegt: 'Het is nog niet de tijd om de tempel van de Heer te herbouwen.'[c] 3 Maar de Heer zegt: 4 Is het dan wel de tijd voor júllie om in mooie huizen te wonen, terwijl míjn huis, mijn tempel, in puin ligt? 5 Ik, de Heer van de hemelse legers, zeg: Denk na over wat er gebeurt. 6 Jullie zaaien veel, maar oogsten weinig. Jullie hebben wel te eten, maar nooit echt genoeg. Jullie hebben wel te drinken, maar hebben nog steeds dorst. Jullie hebben wel kleren aan, maar niet genoeg om het warm te hebben. Jullie verdienen wel geld, maar het is nooit genoeg doordat alles zo duur is. 7 Nu zeg Ik, de Heer van de hemelse legers: Denk daar eens over na!
8 Ga de bergen in, haal hout en bouw mijn tempel. Dáár zal Ik blij mee zijn en jullie zullen Mij prijzen, zegt de Heer. 9 Jullie verwachten grote oogsten, maar kijk, er is niet veel. En het beetje dat jullie thuisbrengen, blaas Ik weg. Waarom doe Ik dat? Omdat míjn huis in puin ligt en jullie alleen maar hard werken aan jullie eigen huizen. 10 Daarom valt er geen dauw en geen regen op het land en zijn de oogsten slecht. 11 Want Ik heb droogte laten komen over het land en de bergen, over het graan, de druiven, de olijfbomen en alle andere vruchten, over mensen en dieren en al het werk dat zij doen."
Er wordt een begin gemaakt met de herbouw van de tempel
12 Zerubbabel (de zoon van Sealtiël), hogepriester Jozua (de zoon van Jozadak) en alle anderen die van het volk waren overgebleven, gehoorzaamden aan wat Haggaï namens God tegen hen zei. Ze hadden ontzag voor hun Heer God. 13 En Haggaï, de boodschapper van de Heer, zei namens de Heer tegen het volk: "De Heer zegt: Ik ben met jullie." 14 En de Heer moedigde Zerubbabel, hogepriester Jozua en alle anderen die van het volk waren overgebleven aan, om de tempel te herbouwen. Toen gingen ze weer verder bouwen aan de tempel van hun God, de Heer van de hemelse legers.

哈该书 1
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
耶和华命令百姓重建圣殿
1 大流士王执政第二年六月一日，耶和华借着先知哈该对撒拉铁的儿子犹大省长所罗巴伯和约撒答的儿子大祭司约书亚说：
2 “万军之耶和华说，‘这些百姓说，重建耶和华殿的时候还没到。’” 3 因此，耶和华对先知哈该说： 4 “这殿还是一片废墟，你们却住在华丽的房子里。 5 万军之耶和华说，你们要认真反省自己的行为。 6 你们种多收少，吃不饱，喝不足，穿不暖，挣来的工钱却放在漏口袋中。”
7 万军之耶和华说：“你们要认真反省自己的行为。 8 你们要上山伐木，重建这殿，好让我欢喜并得到尊崇。这是耶和华说的。 9 你们盼望丰收，结果收的很少；你们把收成带回家，我却把它们吹走。这是什么缘故？万军之耶和华告诉你们，‘因为你们都忙于建自家的房子，任由我的殿一片废墟。 10 所以，天不降雨露，地无出产。 11 我让旱灾临到大地、群山、五谷、葡萄、橄榄等地里的出产以及人畜，使你们一切的劳碌付诸东流。’”
12 撒拉铁的儿子犹大省长所罗巴伯、约撒答的儿子大祭司约书亚和所有的余民[a]听到他们的上帝耶和华借先知哈该所讲的话，都顺服耶和华的话。百姓都敬畏耶和华。 13 耶和华的使者哈该向百姓传达耶和华的话，说：“耶和华说，‘我与你们同在。’” 14 耶和华感动撒拉铁的儿子犹大省长所罗巴伯、约撒答的儿子大祭司约书亚和所有的余民，他们就动工建造他们的上帝万军之耶和华的殿， 15 时值大流士王执政第二年六月二十四日。

Haggai 1
King James Version
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,
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.
Haggai 1
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
The Command to Rebuild the Temple
1 In the second year of King Darius, in the sixth month, on the first day of the month, the word of the Lord came by the prophet Haggai to Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest: 2 Thus says the Lord of hosts: These people say the time has not yet come to rebuild the Lord’s house. 3 Then the word of the Lord came by the prophet Haggai, saying: 4 Is it a time for you yourselves to live in your panelled houses, while this house lies in ruins? 5 Now therefore, thus says the Lord of hosts: Consider how you have fared. 6 You have sown much, and harvested little; you eat, but you never have enough; you drink, but you never have your fill; you clothe yourselves, but no one is warm; and you that earn wages earn wages to put them into a bag with holes.
7 Thus says the Lord of hosts: Consider how you have fared. 8 Go up to the hills and bring wood and build the house, so that I may take pleasure in it and be honoured, says the Lord. 9 You have looked for much, and, lo, it came to little; and when you brought it home, I blew it away. Why? says the Lord of hosts. Because my house lies in ruins, while all of you hurry off to your own houses. 10 Therefore the heavens above you have withheld the dew, and the earth has withheld its produce. 11 And I have called for a drought on the land and the hills, on the grain, the new wine, the oil, on what the soil produces, on human beings and animals, and on all their labours.
12 Then Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, and Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest, with all the remnant of the people, obeyed the voice of the Lord their God, and the words of the prophet Haggai, as the Lord their God had sent him; and the people feared the Lord. 13 Then Haggai, the messenger of the Lord, spoke to the people with the Lord’s message, saying, I am with you, says the Lord. 14 And the Lord stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people; and they came and worked on the house of the Lord of hosts, their God, 15 on the twenty-fourth day of the month, in the sixth month.
