Haggai 1:6-8
1599 Geneva Bible
6 [a]Ye have sown much, and bring in little: ye eat, but ye have not enough: ye drink, but ye are not filled: ye clothe you, but ye be not warm: and he that earneth wages, putteth the wages into a broken bag.
7 Thus saith the Lord of hosts, Consider your own ways in your hearts.
8 Go [b]up to the mountain, and bring wood, and build this House, and [c]I will be favorable in it, and I will [d]be glorified, saith the Lord.
