1 In the second year of the reign of Darius (lord), on the first day of the sixth month, the word of the LORD {YHWH} came through Haggai (festive) the prophet to Zerubbabel (sown in Babylon) son of Shealtiel (I have asked of God), governor of Judah (praised), and to Joshua (YHWH saves) son of Jehozadak (Jozadak), the high priest, stating 2 that this is what the LORD {YHWH} of Hosts says: “These people say, ‘The time has not yet come to rebuild the house of the LORD.’” 3 Then the word of the LORD {YHWH} came through Haggai (festive) the prophet, saying: 4 “Is it a time for you⁺ yourselves to live in your⁺ paneled houses, while this house lies in ruins?” Haggai 1:1-4, Berean Annotated Bible.
