1:3 The
Lord’s
message came through the
prophet Haggai as follows:
4 “Is it
right for
you to
live in richly
paneled houses while
my temple is
in ruins?
5 Here then,
this is what the
Lord of
Heaven’s Armies has
said: ‘
Think carefully about what you
are doing.
6 You have
planted much, but have
harvested little. You
eat, but are
never filled. You
drink, but are
still thirsty. You
put on clothes, but are
not warm. Those who
earn wages end up with holes in their
money bags.’”
