4. Is it time for you to dwell in your paneled houses while this house lies in ruins?
5. Now thus says the Lord of hosts:Reflect on your experience!
6. You have sown much, but have brought in little;you have eaten, but have not been satisfied;You have drunk, but have not become intoxicated;you have clothed yourselves, but have not been warmed;And the hired worker labors for a bag full of holes.
7. Thus says the Lord of hosts:Reflect on your experience!
