2 This is what the LORD of heavenly forces says: These people say, "The time hasn't come, the time to rebuild the LORD's house."

4 Is it time for you to dwell in your own paneled houses while this house lies in ruins?
4 Is it a time for you yourselves to live in your paneled houses, while this house lies in ruins?
5 So now, this is what the LORD of heavenly forces says: Take your ways to heart.

6 You have sown much, but it has brought little. You eat, but there's not enough to satisfy. You drink, but not enough to get drunk. There is clothing, but not enough to keep warm. Anyone earning wages puts those wages into a bag with holes.
6 You have sown much, and harvested little; you eat, but you never have enough; you drink, but you never have your fill; you clothe yourselves, but no one is warm; and you that earn wages earn wages to put them into a bag with holes.

10 Therefore the heavens above you have withheld the dew, and the earth has withheld its produce.
11 I have called for drought on the earth, on the mountains, on the grain, on the wine, on the olive oil, on that which comes forth from the fertile ground, on humanity, on beasts, and upon everything that handles produce.
11 And I have called for a drought on the land and the hills, on the grain, the new wine, the oil, on what the soil produces, on human beings and animals, and on all their labors.

7 I will make all the nations quake. The wealth of all the nations will come. I will fill this house with glory, says the LORD of heavenly forces.
