Appel à reconstruire le temple
1 La deuxième année du règne de Darius, le premier jour du sixième mois, la parole de l'Eternel fut adressée par l’intermédiaire du prophète Aggée au gouverneur de Juda Zorobabel, fils de Shealthiel, et au grand-prêtre Josué, fils de Jotsadak: 2 «Voici ce que dit l'Eternel, le maître de l’univers: Ce peuple prétend: ‘Il n'est pas encore venu, le moment de reconstruire la maison de l'Eternel.’ 3 Et pourtant, la parole de l'Eternel leur était adressée par l’intermédiaire du prophète Aggée: 4 ‘Est-ce le moment pour vous d'habiter vos maisons lambrissées, quand ce temple est détruit?’
5 »Voici ce que dit maintenant l'Eternel, le maître de l’univers: Réfléchissez attentivement à votre conduite! 6 Vous semez beaucoup et vous récoltez peu; vous mangez et vous n'êtes pas rassasiés; vous buvez et vous n'êtes pas désaltérés; vous êtes habillés et vous n'avez pas chaud; le salaire de celui qui travaille tombe dans un sac percé.
7 »Voici ce que dit l'Eternel, le maître de l’univers:
Réfléchissez attentivement à votre conduite!
8 Montez sur la montagne, apportez du bois
et construisez le temple!
J'en aurai de la joie et je serai honoré,
dit l'Eternel.
9 Vous comptiez sur beaucoup, et vous avez eu peu;
vous l'avez rentré chez vous, mais j'ai soufflé dessus.
Pourquoi? déclare l'Eternel, le maître de l’univers.
A cause de ma maison qui est détruite,
tandis que vous vous empressez chacun pour votre maison.
10 Voilà pourquoi le ciel a retenu la rosée,
et la terre ses produits.
11 J'ai appelé la sécheresse sur le pays, sur les montagnes,
sur le blé, sur le vin nouveau, sur l'huile,
sur les produits du sol,
sur les hommes et sur les bêtes,
sur tout le travail de vos mains.»
12 Zorobabel, fils de Shealthiel, le grand-prêtre Josué, fils de Jotsadak, et tout le reste du peuple écoutèrent la voix de l'Eternel, leur Dieu, et les paroles du prophète Aggée, conformément à la mission que l'Eternel, leur Dieu, lui avait confiée. Et le peuple fut saisi de crainte devant l'Eternel. 13 Aggée, le messager de l'Eternel, dit au peuple d'après l'ordre de l'Eternel: «Je suis moi-même avec vous, déclare l'Eternel.»
14 L'Eternel réveilla l'esprit du gouverneur de Juda Zorobabel, fils de Shealthiel, l'esprit du grand-prêtre Josué, fils de Jotsadak, et l'esprit de tout le reste du peuple. Ils vinrent et ils se mirent à l'œuvre dans la maison de l'Eternel, le maître de l’univers, leur Dieu, 15 le vingt-quatrième jour du sixième mois, la deuxième année du règne de Darius.

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)

The Command to Build God’s House(A)
1 In (B)the second year of King Darius, in the sixth month, on the first day of the month, the word of the Lord came by (C)Haggai the prophet to (D)Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to (E)Joshua the son of (F)Jehozadak, the high priest, saying, 2 “Thus speaks the Lord of hosts, saying: ‘This people says, “The time has not come, the time that the Lord’s house should be built.” ’ ”
3 Then the word of the Lord (G)came by Haggai the prophet, saying, 4 “Is it (H)time for you yourselves to dwell in your paneled houses, and this [a]temple to lie in ruins?” 5 Now therefore, thus says the Lord of hosts: (I)“Consider your ways!
6 “You have (J)sown much, and bring in little;
You eat, but do not have enough;
You drink, but you are not filled with drink;
You clothe yourselves, but no one is warm;
And (K)he who earns wages,
Earns wages to put into a bag with holes.”
7 Thus says the Lord of hosts: “Consider your ways! 8 Go up to the (L)mountains and bring wood and build the [b]temple, that I may take pleasure in it and be glorified,” says the Lord. 9 (M)“You looked for much, but indeed it came to little; and when you brought it home, (N)I blew it away. Why?” says the Lord of hosts. “Because of My house that is in ruins, while every one of you runs to his own house. 10 Therefore (O)the heavens above you withhold the dew, and the earth withholds its fruit. 11 For I (P)called for a drought on the land and the mountains, on the grain and the new wine and the oil, on whatever the ground brings forth, on men and livestock, and on (Q)all the labor of your hands.”
The People’s Obedience
12 (R)Then Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Joshua the 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 Haggai the prophet, as the Lord their God had sent him; and the people feared the presence of the Lord. 13 Then Haggai, the Lord’s messenger, spoke the Lord’s message to the people, saying, (S)“I am with you, says the Lord.” 14 So (T)the Lord stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, (U)governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people; (V)and they came and worked on the house of the Lord of hosts, their God, 15 on the twenty-fourth day of the sixth month, in the second year of King Darius.
