Haggai 2:14-16
Contemporary English Version
14 So the Lord told Haggai to say:
That's how it is with this entire nation. Everything you do and every sacrifice you offer is unacceptable to me. 15 But from now on, things will get better. Before you started laying the foundation for the temple, 16 you recalled what life was like in the past.[a] When you wanted 200 kilograms of wheat, there were only 10, and when you wanted 50 jars of wine, there were only 20.
