Haggai 2:15, 18-19

“ ‘Now give careful thought to this from this day on—consider how things were before one stone was laid on another in the LORD’s temple.

‘From this day on, from this twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, give careful thought to the day when the foundation of the LORD’s temple was laid. Give careful thought: Is there yet any seed left in the barn? Until now, the vine and the fig tree, the pomegranate and the olive tree have not borne fruit. “ ‘From this day on I will bless you.’ ”
