זְרַעְתֶּ֨ם הַרְבֵּ֜ה וְהָבֵ֣א מְעָ֗ט אָכ֤וֹל וְאֵין־לְשָׂבְעָה֙ שָׁת֣וֹ וְאֵין־לְשָׁכְרָ֔ה לָב֖וֹשׁ וְאֵין־לְחֹ֣ם ל֑וֹ וְהַ֨מִּשְׂתַּכֵּ֔ר מִשְׂתַּכֵּ֖ר אֶל־צְר֥וֹר נָקֽוּב׃ (פ)
Kamu menabur banyak, tetapi membawa pulang sedikit; kamu makan, tetapi tidak sampai kenyang; kamu minum, tetapi tidak sampai puas; kamu berpakaian, tetapi tak seorang pun merasa hangat; dan orang yang mencari upah, mencari upah untuk dimasukkan ke dalam pundi-pundi yang berlubang.
Rashi
את יבולה [THE GROUND WILL NOT GIVE] ITS יבול — it will not yield even as much as what you have brought (יבול) to it (even the same quantity of seed you have sown in it), just as it is said, (Hag. 1:6) “You sow much, but bring in little” (Sifrei Devarim 43:28; cf. Rashi on Leviticus 26:20).
