Haggai 1:2-8 "Thus says Yahweh of hosts: 'This people says, "⌊The time has not come to rebuild the temple of Yahweh⌋.'" *

LEB⁽ⁱ⁾ ² "Thus says Yahweh of hosts: 'This people says, "_⌊The time has not come to rebuild the temple of Yahweh_⌋.'" * ³ And the word of Yahweh came _⌊through_⌋* Haggai the prophet, saying, ⁴ "Is it a time for you yourselves to dwell in your houses that have been paneled while this house* is desolate?" ⁵ And so then, thus says Yahweh of hosts: '_⌊Consider your ways_⌋!* ⁶ You have sown much but have harvested little. You have eaten without being satisfied; _⌊you have drunk without being satiated_⌋;* you have worn clothes without being warm; the one who earns wages puts it in _⌊a pouch with holes_⌋.'* ⁷ Thus says Yahweh of hosts: '_⌊Consider your ways_⌋!* ⁸ Go up the mountain and bring wood and build the house* so that I may be pleased with it and honored,' says Yahweh.
