Haggai 1:2-9

2that this is what the LORD of Hosts says:

“These people say, ‘The time has not yet cometo rebuild the house of the LORD.’”

3Then the word of the LORD came through Haggai the prophet, saying:

4“Is it a time for you yourselvesto live in your paneled houses,while this house lies in ruins?”

5Now this is what the LORD of Hosts says:

“Consider carefully your ways.
6You have planted muchbut harvested little.You eat but never have enough.You drink but never have your fill.You put on clothes but never get warm.You earn wages to put into a bag pierced through.”

7This is what the LORD of Hosts says:

“Consider carefully your ways.
8Go up into the hills,bring down lumber, and build the house,so that I may take pleasure in it and be glorified,says the LORD.9You expected much,but behold, it amounted to little.And what you brought home, I blew away.Why? declares the LORD of Hosts.Because My house still lies in ruins,while each of you is busywith his own house.
