| 1 | 1 | In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, in the first day of the month, the word of the Lord came by the hand of Aggeus the prophet, to Zorobabel the son of Salathiel, governor of Juda, and to Jesus the son of Josedec the high priest, saying: | in anno secundo Darii regis in mense sexto in die una mensis factum est verbum Domini in manu Aggei prophetae ad Zorobabel filium Salathihel ducem Iuda et ad Iesum filium Iosedech sacerdotem magnum dicens |
| 1 | 2 | Thus saith the Lord of hosts, saying: This people saith: The time is not yet come for building the house of the Lord. | haec ait Dominus exercituum dicens populus iste dicit nondum venit tempus domus Domini aedificandae |
| 1 | 3 | And the word of the Lord came by the hand of Aggeus the prophet, saying: | et factum est verbum Domini in manu Aggei prophetae dicens |
| 1 | 4 | Is it time for you to dwell in ceiled houses, and this house lie desolate? | numquid tempus vobis est ut habitetis in domibus laqueatis et domus ista deserta |
| 1 | 5 | And now thus saith the Lord of hosts: Set your hearts to consider your ways. | et nunc haec dicit Dominus exercituum ponite corda vestra super vias vestras |
| 1 | 6 | You have sowed much, and brought in little: you have eaten, but have not had enough: you have drunk, but have not been filled with drink: you have clothed yourselves, but have not been warmed: and he that hath earned wages, put them into a bag with holes. | 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 |
| 1 | 7 | Thus saith the Lord of hosts: Set your hearts upon your ways: | haec dicit Dominus exercituum ponite corda vestra super vias vestras |
| 1 | 8 | Go up to the mountain, bring timber, and build the house: and it shall be acceptable to me, and I shall be glorified, saith the Lord. | ascendite in montem portate lignum et aedificate domum et acceptabilis mihi erit et glorificabor dicit Dominus |
| 1 | 9 | You have looked for more, and behold it became less, and you brought it home, and I blowed it away: why, saith the Lord of hosts? because my house is desolate, and you make haste every man to his own house. | respexistis ad amplius et ecce factum est minus et intulistis in domum et exsuflavi illud quam ob causam dicit Dominus exercituum quia domus mea deserta est et vos festinatis unusquisque in domum suam |
| 1 | 10 | Therefore the heavens over you were stayed from giving dew, and the earth was hindered from yielding her fruits: | propter hoc super vos prohibiti sunt caeli ne darent rorem et terra prohibita est ne daret germen suum |
| 1 | 11 | And I called for a drought upon the land, and upon the mountains, and upon the corn, and upon the wine, and upon the oil, and upon all that the ground bringeth forth, and upon men, and upon beasts, and upon all the labour of the hands. | 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 |
| 1 | 12 | Then Zorobabel the son of Salathiel, and Jesus the son of Josedec the high priest, and all the remnant of the people hearkened to the voice of the Lord their God, and to the words of Aggeus the prophet, as the Lord their God sent him to them: and the people feared before the Lord. | et audivit Zorobabel filius Salathihel et Iesus filius Iosedech sacerdos magnus et omnes reliquiae populi vocem Dei sui et verba Aggei prophetae sicut misit eum Dominus Deus eorum ad ipsos et timuit populus a facie Domini |
| 1 | 13 | And Aggeus the messenger of the Lord, as one of the messengers of the Lord, spoke, saying to the people: I am with you, saith the Lord. | et dixit Aggeus nuntius Domini de nuntiis Domini populo dicens ego vobiscum dicit Dominus |
| 1 | 14 | And the Lord stirred up the spirit of Zorobabel the son of Salathiel governor of Juda, and the spirit of Jesus the son of Josedec the high priest, and the spirit of all the rest of the people: and they went in, and did the work in the house of the Lord of Hosts their God. | et suscitavit Dominus spiritum Zorobabel filii Salathihel ducis Iuda et spiritum Iesu filii Iosedech sacerdotis magni et spiritum reliquorum de omni populo et ingressi sunt et faciebant opus in domo Domini exercituum Dei sui |
