Haggai 2:15-19
Legacy Standard Bible
15 But now, (A)oh set your heart to consider from this day [a]onward: from before one (B)stone was set on another in the temple of Yahweh, 16 [b]from when it was that one came to a grain heap of twenty measures, then there would be only ten; and from when one came to the wine vat to draw fifty troughs full, then there would be only twenty. 17 I struck you and every work of your hands with (C)scorching wind, mildew, and hail; [c]yet you did not come back to Me,’ declares Yahweh. 18 ‘(D)Oh set your heart to consider from this day [d]onward, from the (E)twenty-fourth day of the ninth month; from the day when the temple of Yahweh was (F)founded, set your heart to consider: 19 Is the seed still in the barn? Even including the vine, the fig tree, the pomegranate, and the olive tree, it has not borne fruit. Yet from this day on I will (G)bless you.’”

Haggai 2:15-19
Revised Standard Version
15 Pray now, consider what will come to pass from this day onward. Before a stone was placed upon a stone in the temple of the Lord, 16 how did you fare?[a] When one came to a heap of twenty measures, there were but ten; when one came to the winevat to draw fifty measures, there were but twenty. 17 I smote you and all the products of your toil with blight and mildew and hail; yet you did not return to me, says the Lord. 18 Consider from this day onward, from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month. Since the day that the foundation of the Lord’s temple was laid, consider: 19 Is the seed yet in the barn? Do the vine, the fig tree, the pomegranate, and the olive tree still yield nothing? From this day on I will bless you.”
