Haggai 2:16-19

New International Version

¹⁶ When anyone came to a heap^(A) of twenty measures, there were only ten. When anyone went to a wine vat^(B) to draw fifty measures, there were only twenty.^{(C) 17} I struck all the work of your hands^(D) with blight,^(E) mildew and hail,^(F) yet you did not return^(G) to me,’ declares the Lord.^{(H) 18} ‘From this day on, from this twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, give careful thought^(I) to the day when the foundation^(J) of the Lord’s temple was laid. Give careful thought: ¹⁹ Is there yet any seed left in the barn? Until now, the vine and the fig tree, the pomegranate^(K) and the olive tree have not borne fruit.^(L)

“‘From this day on I will bless^(M) you.’”
