1 En el segundo año del rey Darío, el primer día del sexto mes, la palabra del Señor vino por medio del profeta Ageo a Zorobabel, hijo de Salatiel, gobernante de Judá, y a Josué, hijo de Josadac, el sumo sacerdote:
1 In 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 «Esto dice el Señor de los ejércitos: Este pueblo dice: “No ha llegado el tiempo de construir la casa del Señor”».
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.’”
3 Entonces la palabra del Señor vino por medio del profeta Ageo:
3 Then Yahweh’s word came by Haggai the prophet, saying,
4 «¿Es tiempo de que ustedes vivan en casas con techo mientras esta casa está en ruinas?
4 “Is it a time for you yourselves to dwell in your paneled houses, while this house lies waste?
5 Por eso, esto dice el Señor de los ejércitos: Piensen en sus caminos.
5 Now therefore this is what Yahweh of Armies says: ‘Consider your ways.
6 Han sembrado mucho, pero han cosechado poco. Comen, pero no tienen suficiente; beben, pero no quedan satisfechos; se visten, pero nadie entra en calor. El que recibe el pago por su trabajo lo guarda en una bolsa llena de agujeros».
6 You have sown much, and bring in little. You eat, but you don’t 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 Esto dice el Señor de los ejércitos: «Piensen en sus caminos.
7 “This is what Yahweh of Armies says: ‘Consider your ways.
8 Suban a las colinas, traigan madera y construyan la casa. Me agradará y seré honrado —dice el Señor—.
8 Go up to the mountain, bring wood, and build the house. I will take pleasure in it, and I will be glorified,” says Yahweh.
9 Esperaban mucho, pero resultó poco, y cuando lo llevaron a casa, lo quité con un soplo. ¿Por qué? —dice el Señor de los ejércitos—. Porque mi casa está en ruinas mientras cada uno cuida de su propia casa.
9 “You looked for much, and, behold, it came to little; and when you brought it home, I blew it away. Why?” says Yahweh of Armies, “Because of my house that lies waste, while each of you is busy with his own house.
10 Por eso los cielos sobre ustedes no dan rocío, y la tierra no da su fruto.
10 Therefore for your sake the heavens withhold the dew, and the earth withholds its fruit.
11 Por mi orden no cayó lluvia sobre la tierra, las montañas, el grano, el vino, el aceite, los productos de la tierra, los seres humanos, el ganado ni ningún trabajo de las manos humanas».
11 I called for a drought on the land, on the mountains, on the grain, on the new wine, on the oil, on that which the ground produces, on men, on livestock, and on all the labor of the hands.”
12 Entonces Zorobabel, hijo de Salatiel, y Josué, hijo de Josadac, el sumo sacerdote, y todo el resto del pueblo escucharon la voz del Señor su Dios y las palabras del profeta Ageo, porque el Señor su Dios lo había enviado. El pueblo sintió temor ante el Señor.
12 Then Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel and Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, with all the remnant of the people, obeyed Yahweh their God’s voice, and the words of Haggai the prophet, as Yahweh their God had sent him; and the people feared Yahweh.
13 Ageo, a quien el Señor había enviado para comunicar sus palabras al pueblo, dijo: «Estoy con ustedes —dice el Señor—».
13 Then Haggai, Yahweh’s messenger, spoke Yahweh’s message to the people, saying, “I am with you,” says Yahweh.
14 El Señor movió el espíritu de Zorobabel, hijo de Salatiel, gobernante de Judá, el espíritu de Josué, hijo de Josadac, el sumo sacerdote, y el espíritu de todo el resto del pueblo. Ellos vinieron y trabajaron en la casa del Señor de los ejércitos, su Dios,
14 Yahweh stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, 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; and they came and worked on the house of Yahweh of Armies, their God,
15 el día veinticuatro del sexto mes, en el segundo año del rey Darío.
15 in the twenty-fourth day of the month, in the sixth month, in the second year of Darius the king.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Quotes verse 1:1 Augustine of Hippo, Expositions on the Psalms (Psalm CXLIX)

    For if the Word be not in their hands, why is it written, "The Word of the Lord was put in the hand of the Prophet Haggai"? Surely, brethren, God set not His Word in His fingers.
