“I struck you — all the work of your hands — with blight, mildew, and hail, but you did not turn to Me, declares the LORD.”
Haggai 2:17 (BSB)
Context Reading
15Now consider carefully from this day forward: Before one stone was placed on another in the temple of the LORD, 16from that time, when one came expecting a heap of twenty ephahs of grain, there were but ten. When one came to the winepress to draw out fifty baths, there were but twenty. 17I struck you — all the work of your hands — with blight, mildew, and hail, but you did not turn to Me, declares the LORD. 18Consider carefully from this day forward — from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, the day the foundation of the LORD’s temple was laid — consider carefully: 19Is there still seed in the barn? The vine, the fig, the pomegranate, and the olive tree have not yet yielded fruit. But from this day on, I will bless you.”
