4Is it timeH6256 for you, O ye, to dwellH3427 in your panelledH5603 housesH1004, and this houseH1004 lie wasteH2720? 5Now therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; ConsiderH7760H3824 your waysH1870.1 6Ye have sownH2232 muchH7235, and bringH935 in littleH4592; ye eatH398, but ye have not enoughH7654; ye drinkH8354, but ye are not filled with drinkH7937; ye clotheH3847 yourselves, but there is none warmH2527; and he that earneth wagesH7936 earneth wagesH7936 to put it into a bagH6872 with holesH5344.2 7Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; ConsiderH7760H3824 your waysH1870.3 8Go upH5927 to the mountainH2022, and bringH935 woodH6086, and buildH1129 the houseH1004; and I will take pleasureH7521 in it, and I will be glorifiedH3513, saithH559 the LORDH3068. 9Ye lookedH6437 for muchH7235, and, lo, it came to littleH4592; and when ye broughtH935 it homeH1004, I did blowH5301 upon it. Why? saithH5002 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635. BecauseH3282 of my houseH1004 that is wasteH2720, and ye runH7323 every manH376 to his own houseH1004.4 10Therefore the heavensH8064 over you withholdH3607 the dewH2919, and the earthH776 withholdethH3607 her fruitH2981. 11And I calledH7121 for a droughtH2721 upon the landH776, and upon the mountainsH2022, and upon the grainH1715, and upon the new wineH8492, and upon the oilH3323, and upon that which the groundH127 bringeth forthH3318, and upon menH120, and upon cattleH929, and upon all the labourH3018 of the handsH3709.
