‘ From this day on, from this twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, give careful thought to the day when the foundation of the Lord’s temple was laid. Give careful thought:

It is the 24th day of the ninth month. From this day on, here is what you should think carefully about. Think about the day when the foundation of my temple was laid.

Consider from this day onward, from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month. Since the day that the foundation of the Lord’s temple was laid, consider:

“ Think about this eighteenth day of December, the day when the foundation of the Lord’s Temple was laid. Think carefully.

From this day on, think carefully; from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, from the day the foundation of the LORD’s temple was laid; think carefully.

‘ Do consider from this day onward, from the twenty fourth day of the ninth month; from the day when the temple of the Lord was founded, consider:

‘ Consider now from this day forward, from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, from the day that the foundation of the LORD’s temple was laid— consider it:

Consider, I pray you, from this day and backward, from the four and twentieth day of the ninth month, since the day that the foundation of Jehovah’s temple was laid, consider it.

“ Consider carefully from this day forward; from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, from the day the foundation of the Lord’s temple was laid; consider it carefully.

Consider now from this day and upward, from the four and twentieth day of the ninth[ month, even] from the day that the foundation of the LORD’S temple was laid, consider[ it].

‘ Think carefully about the past: from today, the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, to the day work on the temple of the LORD was resumed, think about it.

‘ Consider, please, from this day and backward, from the twenty- fourth day of the ninth month, since the day that the foundation of Yahweh’s temple was laid, consider it.

“万军之耶和华如此说：你们的手要坚强；这些日子，你们已听见先知的口，在万军之耶和华殿的根基立定、圣殿建造的日子所说的这些话。

“现在，你们心里要想一想，从今日起，耶和华的殿还没有一块石头放在石头上的情况。

因为他们要平安撒种，葡萄树要结果子，土地必有出产，天也必降甘露。我要使这余民享受这一切。

那时，哈该先知和易多的孙子撒迦利亚，两个先知奉以色列神的名向犹大和耶路撒冷的犹太人说预言。于是撒拉铁的儿子所罗巴伯和约萨达的儿子耶书亚起来，开始建造耶路撒冷神的殿，有神的先知在那里帮助他们。

惟愿他们有智慧，能明白这事，他们就会想到自己的结局。

大流士王第二年九月二十四日，耶和华的话临到哈该先知，说：

他醒悟过来，就说：‘我父亲有多少雇工，粮食有余，我倒在这里饿死吗？我要起来，到我父亲那里去，对他说：父亲！我得罪了天，又得罪了你，从今以后，我不配称为你的儿子，把我当作一个雇工吧。’于是他起来，往他父亲那里去。相离还远，他父亲看见，就动了慈心，跑去拥抱着他，连连亲他。

耶和华激发撒拉铁的儿子犹大省长所罗巴伯、约撒答的儿子约书亚大祭司，和所有幸存百姓的心，他们就来为万军之耶和华—他们神的殿做工。这是在大流士王第二年六月二十四日。
