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.
