1In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, in the first day of the month, Yahweh’s word came by Haggai, the prophet, to Zerubbabel, the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua, the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, saying,

2“This is what Yahweh of Armies says: These people say, ‘The time hasn’t yet come, the time for Yahweh’s house to be built.’”

3Then Yahweh’s word came by Haggai, the prophet, saying,

4“Is it a time for you yourselves to dwell in your paneled houses, while this house lies waste?

5Now therefore this is what Yahweh of Armies says: Consider your ways.
