ગુજરાતીહાગ્ગાય ૧:૯
તમે ઘણાંની આશા રાખતા હતા, પણ જુઓ, તમે થોડું જ લઈને ઘરે આવ્યા, કેમ કે મેં તેને ફૂંક મારીને ઉડાવી દીધું. શા માટે?’ ‘કેમ કે જ્યારે દરેક માણસ ખુશીથી પોતપોતાના ઘરે જાય છે ત્યારે મારું સભાસ્થાન ઉજ્જડ પડી રહ્યું છે.
हिन्दीहाग्गै १:९
तुम ने बहुत उपज की आशा रखी, परन्तु देखो थोड़ी ही है; और जब तुम उसे घर ले आए, तब मैंने उसको उड़ा दिया। सेनाओं के यहोवा की यह वाणी है, ऐसा क्यों हुआ? क्या इसलिए नहीं, कि मेरा भवन उजाड़ पड़ा है और तुम में से प्रत्येक अपने-अपने घर को दौड़ा चला जाता है?
