Aggæi Prophetæ 1
1 In anno secundo Darii regis, in mense sexto, in die una mensis, factum est verbum Domini in manu Aggaei prophetae ad Zorobabel filium Salathiel, ducem Iuda, et ad Iesum, filium Iosadec, sacerdotem magnum, dicens:
In the second year of Daryavesh the king, in the sixth month, in the first day of the month, the word of the LORD came by Haggai, the prophet, to Zerubbabel, the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua, the son of Jehozadak, the cohen hagadol, saying,
2 Haec ait Dominus exercituum, dicens: Populus iste dicit: Nondum venit tempus domus Domini aedificandae.
"This is what the LORD of hosts says: These people say, 'The time hasn't yet come, the time for the LORD's house to be built.'"
3 Et factum est verbum Domini in manu Aggaei prophetae, dicens:
Then the word of the LORD came by Haggai, the prophet, saying,
4 Numquid tempus vobis est ut habitetis in domibus laqueatis, et domus ista deserta?
"Is it a time for you yourselves to dwell in your paneled houses, while this house lies waste?
5 Et nunc haec dicit Dominus exercituum: Ponite corda vestra super vias vestras.
Now therefore this is what the LORD of hosts says: Consider your ways.
6 Seminastis multum, et intulistis parum: comedistis, et non estis satiati: bibistis, et non estis inebriati: operuistis vos, et non estis calefacti: et qui mercedes congregavit, misit eas in sacculum pertusum.
You have sown much, and bring in little. You eat, but you do not have enough. You drink, but you aren't filled with drink. You clothe yourselves, but no one is warm, and he who earns wages earns wages to put them into a bag with holes in it."
7 Haec dicit Dominus exercituum: Ponite corda vestra super vias vestras:
This is what the LORD of hosts says: "Consider your ways.
8 ascendite in montem, portate ligna, et aedificate domum: et acceptabilis mihi erit, et glorificabor, dicit Dominus.
Go up to the mountain, bring wood, and build the house. I will take pleasure in it, and I will be glorified," says the LORD.
9 Respexistis ad amplius, et ecce factum est minus: et intulistis in domum, et exufflavi illud: quam ob causam, dicit Dominus exercituum? quia domus mea deserta est, et vos festinatis unusquisque in domum suam.
"You looked for much, and, look, it came to little; and when you brought it home, I blew it away. Why?" says the LORD of hosts, "Because of my house that lies waste, while each of you is busy with his own house.
10 Propter hoc super vos prohibiti sunt caeli ne darent rorem, et terra prohibita est ne daret germen suum:
Therefore for your sake the heavens withhold the dew, and the earth withholds its fruit.
11 et vocavi siccitatem super terram, et super montes, et super triticum, et super vinum, et super oleum, et quaecumque profert humus, et super homines, et super iumenta, et super omnem laborem manuum.
I called for a drought on the land, and on the mountains, and on the grain, and on the new wine, on the oil, and on all what the ground produces, and on men, and on livestock, and on all the labor of the hands."
12 Et audivit Zorobabel filius Salathiel, et Iesus filius Iosedech sacerdos magnus, et omnes reliquiae populi vocem Dei sui, et verba Aggaei prophetae, sicut misit eum Dominus Deus eorum ad eos: et timuit populus a facie Domini.
Then Zerubbabel, the son of Shealtiel, and Joshua, the son of Jehozadak, the cohen hagadol, 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 LORD.
13 Et dixit Aggaeus nuncius Domini de nunciis Domini, populo dicens: Ego vobiscum sum, dicit Dominus.
Then Haggai, the LORD's messenger, spoke the LORD's message to the people, saying, "I am with you," says the LORD.
14 Et suscitavit Dominus spiritum Zorobabel filii Salathiel, ducis Iuda, et spiritum Iesu filii Iosedec sacerdotis magni, et spiritum reliquorum de omni populo: et ingressi sunt, et faciebant opus in domo Domini exercituum Dei sui.
The LORD stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel, the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua, the son of Jehozadak, the cohen hagadol, 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 In die vigesima et quarta mensis, in sexto mense, in anno secundo Darii regis.
in the twenty-fourth day of the month, in the sixth month, in the second year of Daryavesh the king.
