Haggai 1:8-9

8Go up to the 1mountains, bring wood, and 2rebuild the 3temple, that I may be 4pleased with it and be 5honored,” says the Lord.

9“6You 7start an ambitious project, but behold, it comes to little; when you bring it home, I 8blow it away. Why?” declares the Lord of armies. “It is because of My house which 9remains desolate, while each of you runs to his own house.
