Haggai 1:6
You have sown much, and bring in little. You eat, but you don’t have enough. You drink, but you aren’t filled with drink. You clothe yourselves, but no one is warm; and he who earns wages earns wages to put them into a bag with holes in it.’Haggai 1:6 · WEB

- ગુજરાતી — હાગ્ગાય ૧:૬
- “તમે ઘણું વાવ્યું છે, પણ થોડી જ ફસલ લાવ્યા છો; તમે ખાઓ છો, પણ ધરાઈને નહિ; તમે પીઓ છો ખરા પણ તૃપ્ત થતા નથી. તમે વસ્ત્રો પહેરો છો પણ તે તમને ગરમી આપતાં નથી; જે માણસ કમાણી કરે છે તે માણસ પોતાની કમાણીને કાણી કોથળીમાં નાખે છે!’
- हिन्दी — हाग्गै १:६
- तुम ने बहुत बोया परन्तु थोड़ा काटा; तुम खाते हो, परन्तु पेट नहीं भरता; तुम पीते हो, परन्तु प्यास नहीं बुझती; तुम कपड़े पहनते हो, परन्तु गरमाते नहीं; और जो मजदूरी कमाता है, वह अपनी मजदूरी की कमाई को छेदवाली थैली में रखता है।
