Haggai 2:15-19 - The Lord Promises His Blessing

¹⁵ Now, therefore, I pray you apply your heart, from this day and upwards, - So long as there had not been laid one stone upon another in the temple of Yahweh, ¹⁶ So long were things thus, that, on coming unto a heap of twenty, then was it found to be ten, - on coming unto the vat to draw off fifty measures, then were there found to be twenty. ¹⁷ I smote you with blight and with mildew and with hail, in all the work of your hands, - Yet ye did not return unto me, Declareth Yahweh. ¹⁸ Apply your heart, I pray you, from this day and upwards, - from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, even from the day when was founded the temple of Yahweh, apply your heart: ¹⁹ Is the seed yet in the store-house? Howbeit, though at present neither, the vine nor the fig-tree nor the pomegranate nor the olive tree, hath brought forth, from this very day, will I bless you.
