Haggai 1:4-9

1. 4 Is it time for you, O ye, to dwell in your cieled houses, and this house lie waste?

2. 5 Now therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts; Consider your ways.

3. 6 Ye have sown much, and bring in little; ye eat, but ye have not enough; ye drink, but ye are not filled with drink; ye clothe you, but there is none warm; and he that earneth wages earneth wages to put it into a bag with holes.

4. 7 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Consider your ways.

5. 8 Go up to the mountain, and bring wood, and build the house; and I will take pleasure in it, and I will be glorified, saith the LORD.

6. 9 Ye looked for much, and lo, it came to little; and when ye brought it home, I did blow upon it. Why? saith the LORD of hosts. Because of mine house that is waste, and ye run every man unto his own house.
