and the sea, and the dry
land;
7
And I will shake all nations, and the desire of all nations shall
come: and I will fill this house with glory, saith the L
ORD
of hosts.
8
The silver
is
mine, and the
gold
is
mine, saith the L
ORD
of hosts.
9
The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the
former, saith the L
ORD
of hosts: and in this place will I give peace, saith the L
ORD
of hosts.
10
In the four and twentieth
day
of the ninth
month,
in the second year of Darius, came the word
of the L
ORD
by Haggai the prophet, saying,
11
Thus saith the L
ORD
of hosts; Ask now the priests
concerning
the law, saying,
12
If one bear holy flesh in the skirt of his garment, and with his skirt
do touch bread, or pottage, or wine, or oil, or any meat, shall it be holy? And the priests answered
and said, No.
13
Then said Haggai, If
one that is
unclean by a dead body touch any of these, shall
it be unclean? And the priests answered and said, It shall be unclean.
14
Then answered Haggai,
and said, So
is
this people, and so
is
this nation before me, saith the L
ORD
; and so
is
every work of
their hands; and that which they offer there
is
unclean.
15
And now, I pray you, consider from this
day and upward, from before a stone was laid upon a stone in the temple of the L
ORD
:
16
Since those
days
were, when
one
came to an heap of twenty
measures,
there were
but
ten: when
one
came to
the pressfat for to draw out fifty
vessels
out of the press, there were
but
twenty.
17
I smote you with
blasting and with mildew and with hail in all the labours of your hands; yet ye
turned
not to me,
saith the L
ORD
.
18
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 L
ORD
’S temple was laid, consider
it.
19
Is the seed yet in the barn? yea, as yet the vine, and the fig tree, and the pomegranate, and the
olive tree, hath not brought forth: from this day will I bless
you.
20
And again the word of the L
ORD
came unto Haggai in the four and twentieth
day
of the month,
saying,
21
Speak to Zerubbabel, governor of Judah, saying, I will shake the heavens and the earth;
22
And I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms, and I will destroy the strength of the kingdoms of
the heathen; and I will overthrow the chariots, and those that ride in them; and the horses and their
riders shall come down, every one by the sword of his brother.
23
In that day, saith the L
ORD
of
hosts, will I take thee, O Zerubbabel, my servant, the son of Shealtiel, saith the L
ORD
, and will make
thee as a signet: for I have chosen thee, saith the L
ORD
of hosts.
Zechariah
CHAPTER 1
In the eighth month, in the second year of Darius, came the word of the L
ORD
unto Zechariah, the
son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo the prophet, saying,
2
The L
ORD
hath been sore displeased with
your fathers.
3
Therefore say thou unto them, Thus saith the L
ORD
of hosts; Turn ye unto me, saith
the L
ORD
of hosts, and I will turn unto you, saith the L
ORD
of hosts.
4
Be ye not as your fathers, unto
whom the former prophets have cried, saying, Thus saith the L
ORD
of hosts; Turn ye now from your
