Haggai 1:4 BBE

²  These are the words of the Lord of armies: These people say, The time has not come for building the Lord's house.

³  Then the word of the Lord came by Haggai the prophet, saying,

⁴  Is it a time for you to be living in roofed houses while this house is a waste?

⁵  For this cause the Lord of armies has said, Give thought to your ways.

⁶  Much has been planted, but little got in; you take food, but have not enough; you take drink, but are not full; you are clothed, but no one is warm; and he who gets payment for his work, gets it to put it into a bag full of holes.
