1 Por medio del profeta Hageo, el Señor les envió un mensaje a Zorobabel, hijo de Salatiel, que era el gobernador de Judá, y al jefe de los sacerdotes Josué, hijo de Josadac. Esto sucedió el día primero del mes sexto del segundo año del reinado de Darío, rey de Persia.
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 El Señor Todopoderoso les preguntó: «¿Por qué andan todos diciendo que todavía no es tiempo de reedificar mi templo en Jerusalén?».
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 Luego, el Señor les volvió a hablar a través del profeta Hageo:
3 Then Yahweh’s word came by Haggai the prophet, saying,
4 «¿Cómo es posible que ustedes vivan en casas bien hermosas, mientras mi templo permanece en ruinas?
4 “Is it a time for you yourselves to dwell in your paneled houses, while this house lies waste?
5 Yo, que soy el Señor Todopoderoso, les digo: ¡Tengan mucho cuidado con lo que están haciendo!
5 Now therefore this is what Yahweh of Armies says: ‘Consider your ways.
6 Siembran mucho, pero recogen poco; comen, pero quedan con hambre; beben, pero quedan con sed; se visten, pero la ropa no los calienta; y el salario no les alcanza para nada.
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 »¡Piensen muy bien lo que están haciendo! Se los digo yo, el Señor Todopoderoso.
7 “This is what Yahweh of Armies says: ‘Consider your ways.
8 Suban a las montañas, traigan madera y reedifiquen mi templo. Eso me alegrará mucho y ustedes serán recompensados. Lo digo yo, 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 »Esperan mucho, pero reciben poco. Lo que logran guardar en sus casas, yo lo hago desaparecer de un soplo. ¿Por qué? Porque mi templo yace en ruinas y a ustedes nada les importa. Su única preocupación es el adorno de sus propias casas. Lo digo yo, el Señor Todopoderoso.
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 »A consecuencia de esa negligencia suya es que yo me he enojado y decidido no enviarles la lluvia necesaria para sus cosechas.
10 Therefore for your sake the heavens withhold the dew, and the earth withholds its fruit.
11 En realidad he decidido que haya sequía en el valle y sobre los montes; una sequía que hará marchitar el trigo, las uvas, los olivares y todas sus cosechas; una sequía que destruirá todo aquello por lo que han trabajado arduamente, de modo que tanto ustedes como sus animales padecerán sed y hambre».
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, gobernador de Judá, el jefe de los sacerdotes Josué, hijo de Josadac, y el resto de la gente sintió mucho miedo. Por eso estuvieron dispuestos a obedecer el mensaje que el Señor su Dios les había enviado por medio del profeta Hageo.
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 Entonces, después de que cambiaron de actitud, el Señor envió de nuevo al profeta Hageo para que les dijera: «Yo estaré con ustedes ayudándoles a cumplir este buen propósito».
13 Then Haggai, Yahweh’s messenger, spoke Yahweh’s message to the people, saying, “I am with you,” says Yahweh.
14 Fue así como el Señor animó a Zorobabel, hijo de Salatiel, gobernador de Judá, al jefe de los sacerdotes Josué, hijo de Josadac, y al resto del pueblo para que comenzaran a trabajar en la reconstrucción del templo de su Dios, el Señor Todopoderoso.
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 Así que comenzaron los trabajos el día veinticuatro del mes sexto del segundo año del reinado de Darío, rey de Persia.
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.
