Haggai 2:16-18

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

¹⁶ what state were you in?^[a] When someone came to a grain heap of twenty measures, it only amounted to ten; when one came to the winepress to dip fifty measures from the vat, it only amounted to twenty. 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 From this day on, think carefully;^(C) from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, from the day the foundation of the Lord’s temple was laid; think carefully.
