2“This is what Yahweh of Armies says: These people say, ‘The time hasn’t yet come, the time for Yahweh’s house to be built.’ ”

3Then Yahweh’s word came by Haggai, the prophet, saying,

4“Is it a time for you yourselves to dwell in your paneled houses, while this house lies waste?

5Now therefore this is what Yahweh of Armies says: Consider your ways.

6You have sown much, and bring in little. You eat, but you don’t have enough. You drink, but you aren’t filled with drink. You clothe yourselves, but no one is warm, and he who earns wages earns wages to put them into a bag with holes in it.”
