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.

The Command to Rebuild the Temple
1 (A)In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, on the first day of the month, the word of the Lord came by the hand of Haggai the prophet to (B)Zerubbabel the son of (C)Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to (D)Joshua the son of (E)Jehozadak, the high priest: 2 “Thus says the Lord of hosts: These people say the time has not yet come to rebuild the house of the Lord.” 3 Then the word of the Lord came (F)by the hand of Haggai the prophet, 4 (G)“Is it a time for you yourselves to dwell in your paneled houses, while (H)this house lies in ruins? 5 Now, therefore, thus says the Lord of hosts: (I)Consider your ways. 6 (J)You have sown much, and harvested little. (K)You eat, but you never have enough; you drink, but you never have your fill. You clothe yourselves, but no one is warm. And he who (L)earns wages does so to put them into a bag with holes.
7 “Thus says the Lord of hosts: (M)Consider your ways. 8 Go up to the hills and bring wood and build the house, that (N)I may take pleasure in it and that (O)I may be glorified, says the Lord. 9 (P)You looked for much, and behold, it came to little. And when you brought it home, (Q)I blew it away. Why? declares the Lord of hosts. Because of my house (R)that lies in ruins, while each of you busies himself with his own house. 10 Therefore (S)the heavens above you have withheld the dew, and the earth has withheld its produce. 11 And (T)I have called for a drought on the land and the hills, on (U)the grain, the new wine, the oil, on what the ground brings forth, on man and beast, and (V)on all their labors.”
The People Obey the Lord
12 (W)Then (X)Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and (Y)Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, with all (Z)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 feared the Lord. 13 Then Haggai, the messenger of the Lord, spoke to the people with the Lord's message, (AA)“I am with you, declares the Lord.” 14 And (AB)the Lord stirred up the spirit of (AC)Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of (AD)Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and the spirit of all (AE)the remnant of the people. And they came and (AF)worked on the house of the Lord of hosts, their God, 15 (AG)on the twenty-fourth day of the month, in the sixth month, in the second year of Darius the king.

A Call to Build the House of the Lord
1 In the second year of King Darius,(A) on the first day of the sixth month, the word of the Lord came through the prophet Haggai(B) to Zerubbabel(C) son of Shealtiel, governor(D) of Judah, and to Joshua(E) son of Jozadak,[a](F) the high priest:(G)
2 This is what the Lord Almighty(H) says: “These people(I) say, ‘The time has not yet come to rebuild the Lord’s house.(J)’”
3 Then the word of the Lord came through the prophet Haggai:(K) 4 “Is it a time for you yourselves to be living in your paneled houses,(L) while this house remains a ruin?(M)”
5 Now this is what the Lord Almighty says: “Give careful thought(N) to your ways. 6 You have planted much, but harvested little.(O) You eat, but never have enough.(P) You drink, but never have your fill.(Q) You put on clothes, but are not warm. You earn wages,(R) only to put them in a purse with holes in it.”
7 This is what the Lord Almighty says: “Give careful thought(S) to your ways. 8 Go up into the mountains and bring down timber(T) and build my house, so that I may take pleasure(U) in it and be honored,(V)” says the Lord. 9 “You expected much, but see, it turned out to be little.(W) What you brought home, I blew(X) away. Why?” declares the Lord Almighty. “Because of my house, which remains a ruin,(Y) while each of you is busy with your own house. 10 Therefore, because of you the heavens have withheld(Z) their dew(AA) and the earth its crops.(AB) 11 I called for a drought(AC) on the fields and the mountains,(AD) on the grain, the new wine,(AE) the olive oil(AF) and everything else the ground produces, on people and livestock, and on all the labor of your hands.(AG)”
12 Then Zerubbabel(AH) son of Shealtiel, Joshua son of Jozadak, the high priest, and the whole remnant(AI) of the people obeyed(AJ) the voice of the Lord their God and the message of the prophet Haggai, because the Lord their God had sent him. And the people feared(AK) the Lord.
13 Then Haggai,(AL) the Lord’s messenger,(AM) gave this message of the Lord to the people: “I am with(AN) you,” declares the Lord. 14 So the Lord stirred up(AO) the spirit of Zerubbabel(AP) son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua son of Jozadak,(AQ) the high priest, and the spirit of the whole remnant(AR) of the people. They came and began to work on the house of the Lord Almighty, their God, 15 on the twenty-fourth day of the sixth month.(AS)
The Promised Glory of the New House
In the second year of King Darius,(AT)
