Consider your ways <1870 derek > .
: 06 Ye have sown <2232 zara< > much <7235 rabah > , and bring
<0935 bow> > in little <4592 m@<at > ; ye eat <0398 >akal > ,
but ye have not enough <7654 sob<ah > ; ye drink <8354 shathah

clothe <3847 labash > you , but there is none <0369 >ayin >
warm <2527 chom > ; and he that earneth <7936 sakar > wages

is stayed <3607 kala> > from dew <2919 tal > , and the earth
<0776 >erets > is stayed <3607 kala> > [ from ] her fruit
<2981 y@buwl > .
