Haggai 1:8 in Context — Haggai 1

6 Vous semez beaucoup, et vous recueillez peu, Vous mangez, et vous n’êtes pas rassasiés, Vous buvez, et vous n’êtes pas désaltérés, Vous êtes vêtus, et vous n’avez pas chaud; Le salaire de celui qui est à gages tombe dans un sac percé.

7 Ainsi parle l’Éternel des armées: Considérez attentivement vos voies!

8 Montez sur la montagne, apportez du bois, Et bâtissez la maison: J’en aurai de la joie, et je serai glorifié, Dit l’Éternel.

9 Vous comptiez sur beaucoup, et voici, vous avez eu peu; Vous l’avez rentré chez vous, mais j’ai soufflé dessus. Pourquoi? Dit l’Éternel des armées. A cause de ma maison, qui est détruite, Tandis que vous vous empressez chacun pour sa maison.

10 C’est pourquoi les cieux vous ont refusé la rosée, Et la terre a refusé ses produits.
