Haggai 2:15-19

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁵ “And from now on, carefully consider this. Consider how things were before one stone was laid on another in the temple of the Lord. ¹⁶ When anyone came to a pile of grain ⌞to get⌟ 20 measures, there would be only 10. And when anyone came to a wine vat to draw out 50 measures, there would be only 20 in it. ¹⁷ I infested all your work with blight and mildew and struck it with hail. But you didn’t come back to me, declares the Lord. ¹⁸ Carefully consider from now on, from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, from the day when the foundation of the house of the Lord was laid. Carefully consider: ¹⁹ Is there any seed left in the barn? The vine, the fig tree, the pomegranate, and the olive tree still haven’t produced. But from now on I will bless you.”
