Haggai 2:15-19
Evangelical Heritage Version
15 Now, consider your ways carefully, from the time before stone was laid upon stone in the temple of the Lord, up to this day.[a] 16 Through all that time, whenever anyone came to a heap of grain to get twenty measures,[b] there were only ten. Whenever anyone came to the wine vat to draw out fifty measures, there were only twenty. 17 I struck you and all the work of your hands with blight, mildew, and hail, yet you did not turn to me, declares the Lord.
18 Consider your ways carefully, from today, the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, all the way back to the day when the foundation of the Lord’s temple was laid.[c] Consider this. 19 Is there still seed in the barn? The vine, the fig tree, the pomegranate, and the olive tree have not produced fruit.
But from this day on, I will bless you.

15 But now, please consider[a] from this day forward, before one stone was placed on another in the temple of Yahweh, 16 from that time when[b] one came to a heap of twenty measures, there were only ten, and when one came to the wine vat to draw out fifty measures,[c] there were only twenty. 17 I struck you with blight, and with plant mildew, and hail, all the work of your hands. But you did not come back to me,’[d] declares[e] Yahweh. 18 ‘Please consider[f] from this day forward, from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, from the day that the foundation of Yahweh’s temple was laid,[g] consider:[h] 19 Is there still seed in the store chamber? Do the vine, the fig tree, the pomegranate, and the olive tree still produce nothing? From this day forward I will bless you.’”
