Zechariah 8:10
New King James Version
10 For before these days
There were no (A)wages for man nor any hire for beast;
There was no peace from the enemy for whoever went out or came in;
For I set all men, everyone, against his neighbor.
Zechariah 8:10
New International Version
10 Before that time there were no wages(A) for people or hire for animals. No one could go about their business safely(B) because of their enemies, since I had turned everyone against their neighbor.
Haggai 1:6-11
New King James Version
6 “You have (A)sown much, and bring in little;
You eat, but do not have enough;
You drink, but you are not filled with drink;
You clothe yourselves, but no one is warm;
And (B)he who earns wages,
Earns wages to put into a bag with holes.”
7 Thus says the Lord of hosts: “Consider your ways! 8 Go up to the (C)mountains and bring wood and build the [a]temple, that I may take pleasure in it and be glorified,” says the Lord. 9 (D)“You looked for much, but indeed it came to little; and when you brought it home, (E)I blew it away. Why?” says the Lord of hosts. “Because of My house that is in ruins, while every one of you runs to his own house. 10 Therefore (F)the heavens above you withhold the dew, and the earth withholds its fruit. 11 For I (G)called for a drought on the land and the mountains, on the grain and the new wine and the oil, on whatever the ground brings forth, on men and livestock, and on (H)all the labor of your hands.”

Why?” declares the Lord Almighty. “Because of my house, which remains a ruin,(K) while each of you is busy with your own house. 10 Therefore, because of you the heavens have withheld(L) their dew(M) and the earth its crops.(N) 11 I called for a drought(O) on the fields and the mountains,(P) on the grain, the new wine,(Q) the olive oil(R) and everything else the ground produces, on people and livestock, and on all the labor of your hands.(S)”
