Haggai 2:16-18

Common English Bible

¹⁶     when one came to the granary for twenty measures,
        there were only ten;
    and when one came to the wine vat for fifty measures,
        there were only twenty.
¹⁷     I struck you—everything you do with your hands—
            with blight and mildew and hail;
            but you didn’t return to me.^[a]
18 So take it to heart from this day forward,
        from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month.
        Take it to heart from the day when the foundation for the Lord’s temple was laid.
