Haggai 1:6-8

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁶ You have sowed much, and brought in little: you have eaten, but have not had enough: you have drunk, but have not been filled with drink: you have clothed yourselves, but have not been warmed: and he that hath earned wages, put them into a bag with holes.

⁷ Thus saith the Lord of hosts: Set Your hearts upon your ways:

⁸ Go up to the mountain, bring timber, and build the house: and it shall be acceptable to me, and I shall be glorified, saith the Lord.
