Haggai 1:2-4
Haggai 1: 2 to 4
2 Thus says the Lord of hosts: These people say, The time is not yet come that the [1]Lord’s house should be rebuilt [although Cyrus had ordered it done eighteen years before]. ⓐ
3 Then came the word of the Lord by Haggai the prophet, saying,
4 Is it time for you yourselves to dwell in your paneled houses while this house [of the Lord] lies in ruins?
