Haggai 1:10-11
Haggai 1:9-11 The Message (MSG)
“And why?” (This is a Message from GOD-of-the-Angel-Armies, remember.) “Because while you’ve run around, caught up with taking care of your own houses, my Home is in ruins. That’s why. Because of your stinginess. And so I’ve given you a dry summer and a meager crop. I’ve matched your tight-fisted stinginess by decreeing a season of drought, drying up fields and hills, withering gardens and orchards, stunting vegetables and fruit. Nothing—not man or woman, not animal or crop—is going to thrive.” * * *
Haggai 1:10-11 King James Version (KJV)
Therefore the heaven over you is stayed from dew, and the earth is stayed from her fruit. And I called for a drought upon the land, and upon the mountains, and upon the corn, and upon the new wine, and upon the oil, and upon that which the ground bringeth forth, and upon men, and upon cattle, and upon all the labour of the hands.
Haggai 1:10-11 New American Standard Bible - NASB 1995 (NASB1995)

Haggai 1:10-11 New Century Version (NCV)
Because of what you have done, the sky holds back its rain and the ground holds back its crops.

Haggai 1:10-11 American Standard Version (ASV)

It’s because of you that the heavens withhold the dew and the earth produces no crops.
