Haggai 1:2-6
New King James Version
2 “Thus speaks the Lord of hosts, saying: ‘This people says, “The time has not come, the time that the Lord’s house should be built.” ’ ”
3 Then the word of the Lord (A)came by Haggai the prophet, saying, 4 “Is it (B)time for you yourselves to dwell in your paneled houses, and this [a]temple to lie in ruins?” 5 Now therefore, thus says the Lord of hosts: (C)“Consider your ways!
6 “You have (D)sown much, and bring in little;
You eat, but do not have enough;
You drink, but you are not filled with drink;
You clothe yourselves, but no one is warm;
And (E)he who earns wages,
Earns wages to put into a bag with holes.”
