4Is it time for you, O yee, to dwell in your sieled houses, and this house lie waste?
5Nowe therefore thus saith the Lord of hostes; Consider your wayes.5
6Yee haue sowen much and bring in litle: ye eate, but ye haue not inough: yee drinke, but yee are not filled with drinke: yee cloth you, but there is none warme: and hee that earneth wages, earneth wages to put it into a bag with holes.6
7¶ Thus saith the Lord of hostes, Consider your wayes.
9Ye looked for much, and loe it came to litle: and when yee brought it home, I did blow vpon it: Why, saith the Lord of hostes? because of mine house that is waste, and yee runne euery man vnto his owne house.9
10Therefore the heauen ouer you is stayed from dew, and the earth is staied from her fruite.10
15In the foure and twentieth day of the sixt moneth, in the second yeere of Darius the King.
