|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.
|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.
|"'You looked for something fancy but it resulted in nothing. When you brought it home, I blew on it. Why?" says the Lord of the angels, 'Because my house is a ruin, and every man among you runs into his own house.'"
|"'You looked for a great return but it resulted in nothing. When you brought it home, I blew on it. Why?" says the Lord of the angels, 'Because my house is a ruin, and every man among you runs into his own house.'"
