Haggai 1:6

* The two F.O.G. Bibles & Commentary below are currently a work in progress.

You have planted much but harvested little. You eat but never have enough. You drink but never have your fill. You put on clothes but never get warm. You earn wages to put into a bag pierced through.”
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
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.”
World English Bible (WEB)
Ye have sown{H2232}{(H8804)} much{H7235}{(H8687)}, and bring{H935}{(H8687)} in little{H4592}; ye eat{H398}{(H8800)}, but ye have not enough{H7654}; ye drink{H8354}{(H8800)}, but ye are not filled with drink{H7937}{(H8800)}; ye clothe{H3847}{(H8800)} you, but there is none warm{H2527}; and he that earneth wages{H7936}{(H8693)} earneth wages{H7936}{(H8693)} to put it into a bag{H6872} with holes{H5344}{(H8803)}.
Strong's King James
You have sown much, bringing in a little food, but not enough to be satisfied, drinking but not becoming drunk. You put on clothing, but no one is warm, the one who earns, earns into a bag of holes.
The F.O.G*
The F.O.G Paraphrase
Ye have sown much, and brought in little, To eat, and not to satiety, To drink, and not to drunkenness, To clothe, and none hath heat, And he who is hiring himself out, Is hiring himself for a bag pierced through.
Young's Literal Translation
