Douay Rheims Original ↷
Haggai 1 💬 📚 📜 📕 ↷
4 Why is it time for you to dwell in embowed houses, and this house desert?
5 And now thus saith the Lord of hosts? Set your hearts upon your ways.
6 You have sowed much, and brought in little: you have eaten, and have not been filled: you have drunk, and have not been inebriated: you have covered your selves, and have not been warmed: and he that hath gathered the wages, put them into a broken bag.
7 Thus saith the Lord of hosts: Set your hearts upon your ways:
8 go up into the mountain, carry timber, and build the house: and it shall be acceptable to me, & I shall be glorified, saith our Lord.
9 You have looked for more, and behold it became less, and you brought it into the house, and I puft at it: for what cause saith the Lord of hosts? Because my house is desert, and you hasten every man into his own house.
