saith the
LORD of
hosts; Consider* your
ways.

Go
up to the
mountain, and
bring wood, and
build the
house; and I will take
pleasure in it, and I will be
glorified,
saith the
LORD.

Ye
looked for
much, and, lo, it came to
little; and when ye
brought it
home, I did
blow upon it. Why?
saith the
LORD of
hosts. Because of mine
house that is
waste, and ye
run every
man unto his own
house.

Therefore the

earth is
stayed from her
fruit.

And I
called for a
drought upon the
land, and upon the
mountains, and upon the
corn, and upon the new
wine, and upon the
oil, and upon that which the
ground bringeth
forth, and upon
men, and upon
cattle, and upon all the
labour of the
hands.
