aYou lookh6437 for muchh7235a, but beholdh2009, it comes to littleh4592; when you bringh935 it homeh1004, I  bblowh5301 it away. Whyh3282h4100?" declaresh5002 the LORDh3068 of hostsh6635, "Becauseh3282 of My househ1004 whichh834  clies desolateh2720b, while eachh376 of you runsh7323 to his own househ1004.

10
