Haggai 2:15-19
World English Bible
15 Now, please consider from this day and backward, before a stone was laid on a stone in Yahweh’s temple. 16 Through all that time, when one came to a heap of twenty measures, there were only ten. When one came to the wine vat to draw out fifty, there were only twenty. 17 I struck you with blight, mildew, and hail in all the work of your hands; yet you didn’t turn to me,’ says Yahweh. 18 ‘Consider, please, from this day and backward, from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, since the day that the foundation of Yahweh’s temple was laid, consider it. 19 Is the seed yet in the barn? Yes, the vine, the fig tree, the pomegranate, and the olive tree haven’t produced. From today I will bless you.’”

Haggai 2:15-19
English Standard Version
15 Now then, (A)consider from this day onward.[a] Before stone was placed upon stone in the temple of the Lord, 16 how did you fare? (B)When[b] one came to a heap of twenty measures, there were but ten. When one came to the wine vat to draw fifty measures, there were but twenty. 17 (C)I struck you and all the products of your toil with blight and with mildew and with hail, (D)yet you did not turn to me, declares the Lord. 18 (E)Consider from this day onward, (F)from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month. Since (G)the day that the foundation of the Lord's temple was laid, (H)consider: 19 (I)Is the seed yet in the barn? Indeed, the vine, the fig tree, the pomegranate, and the olive tree have yielded nothing. But from this day on (J)I will bless you.”
