3And the word of the Lord came by the hand of the prophet Haggai, saying,
4Is it time for you to dwell in your ceiled houses, whereas our house is desolate?
— Haggai 1:5 —
6Ye have sown much, but brought in little; ye have eaten, and are not satisfied; ye have drunk, and are not satisfied with drink, ye have clothed yourselves, and have not become warm thereby: and he that earns wages has gathered them into a bag full of holes.
7Thus saith the Lord Almighty; Consider your ways.
