16 Who were ye coming to the heap of twenty and it was ten? coming to the wine-vat to draw fifty of the wine-press, and there was twenty? 17 I struck you with blasting and with yellowness and with hail in all the work of your hands; and none with you to me, says Jehovah. 18 Set now your heart from this day and upward, from the twenty and fourth day to the ninth, from the day that the temple of Jehovah was founded, set ye your heart. 19 Is the seed yet in the storehouse? and even the vine and the fig tree, and the pomegranate and the olive tree bore not: from this day will I praise. 20 And the word of Jehovah will be the second time to Haggai in the twenty and fourth to the month, saying, 21 Say to Zerubbabel, governor of Judah, saying, I shake the heavens and the earth. 22 And I overturned the throne of kingdoms, and I destroyed the strength of the kingdoms of the nations; and I overturned the chariot and those riding it; and the horses and their horsemen came down, a man by the sword of his brother. 23 In that day, says Jehovah of armies, I will take thee, O Zerubbabel, son of Shealtiel, my servant, says Jehovah, and I set thee as a seal; for I chose in thee, says Jehovah of armies.
