Haggai 1:7-9

Common English Bible

⁷ This is what the Lord of heavenly forces says:
    Take your ways to heart.
⁸     Go up to the highlands and bring back wood.
    Rebuild the temple so that I may enjoy it
        and that I may be honored, says the Lord.
⁹ You expect a surplus, but look how it shrinks.
You bring it home, and I blow it away, says the Lord of heavenly forces,
        because my house lies in ruins.
But all of you hurry to your own houses.
