Haggai 2:15-19

New International Version

¹⁵ “‘Now give careful thought^(A) to this from this day on^[a]—consider how things were before one stone was laid^(B) on another in the Lord’s temple.^{(C) 16} When anyone came to a heap^(D) of twenty measures, there were only ten. When anyone went to a wine vat^(E) to draw fifty measures, there were only twenty.^{(F) 17} I struck all the work of your hands^(G) with blight,^(H) mildew and hail,^(I) yet you did not return^(J) to me,’ declares the Lord.^{(K) 18} ‘From this day on, from this twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, give careful thought^(L) to the day when the foundation^(M) 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^(N) and the olive tree have not borne fruit.^(O)

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