Haggai 2:16-18

Holman Christian Standard Bible

¹⁶ what state were you in?^[a] When someone came to a grain heap of 20 measures, it only amounted to 10; when one came to the winepress to dip 50 measures from the vat, it only amounted to 20. ¹⁷ I struck you—all the work of your hands—with blight, mildew,^(A) and hail,^(B) but you didn’t turn to Me”—this is the Lord’s declaration. ¹⁸ “Consider carefully^(C) from this day forward; from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, from the day the foundation of the Lord’s temple was laid; consider it carefully.
