5NowH6258 therefore, thusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068 of hostsH6635, “1ConsiderH7760H3824H5921 your waysH1870! 6You have 2sownH2232 muchH7235, but 3harvestH935 littleH4592; you eatH398, but there is not enough to be satisfiedH7654; you drinkH8354, but there is 4not enough to becomeH7937 drunkH7937; you putH3847 on clothingH3847, but noH369 oneH369 is warmH2552 enough; and he who earnsH7936, earnsH7936 wagesH7939 to put into a purseH6872 with holesH5344.”

7ThusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068 of hostsH6635, “5ConsiderH7760H3824H5921 your waysH1870! 8GoH5927 up to the 6mountainsH2022, bringH935 woodH6086 and 7rebuildH1129 the 8templeH1004, that I may be 9pleasedH7521 with it and be 10glorifiedH3513,” saysH559 the LordH3068. 9“11You lookH6437 for muchH7235, but beholdH2009, it comes to littleH4592; when you bringH935 it homeH1004, I 12blowH5301 it away. WhyH3282H4100?” declaresH5002 the LordH3068 of hostsH6635, “BecauseH3282 of My houseH1004 whichH834 13lies desolateH2720, while eachH376 of you runsH7323 to his own houseH1004.
