Haggai 1:2-6
Lexham English Bible
2 “Thus says Yahweh of hosts: ‘This people says, “The time has not come to rebuild the temple of Yahweh.’” [a] 3 And the word of Yahweh came through[b] Haggai the prophet, saying, 4 “Is it a time for you yourselves to dwell in your houses that have been paneled while this house[c] is desolate?” 5 And so then, thus says Yahweh of hosts: ‘Consider your ways![d] 6 You have sown much but have harvested little. You have eaten without being satisfied; you have drunk without being satiated;[e] you have worn clothes without being warm; the one who earns wages puts it in a pouch with holes.’[f]
