Haggai 1:4
World English Bible (WEB)
“Is it a time for you yourselves to dwell in your paneled houses, while this house lies waste?
In context
2 “This is what the LORD of Armies says: These people say, ‘The time hasn’t yet come, the time for the LORD’s house to be built.’”
3 Then the LORD’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?
5 Now therefore this is what the LORD of Armies says: ‘Consider your ways.
6 You 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.’
