Haggai 2:16-18

Contemporary English Version

¹⁶ you recalled what life was like in the past.^[a] When you wanted 200 kilograms of wheat, there were only 10, and when you wanted 50 jars of wine, there were only 20. ¹⁷ I made all of your hard work useless by sending mildew, mold, and hail—but you still did not return to me, your Lord.

¹⁸ Today you have completed the foundation for my temple, so listen to what your future will be like.
