When one came to the pressfat for to draw out fifty vessels out of the press, there were but twenty.

In all the labours of your hands;

Yet ye turned not to me, saith the Lord.

15 Look at what was happening to you before you began to lay the foundation of the Lord’s Temple. 16 When you hoped for a twenty-bushel crop, you harvested only ten.

Even so, you refused to return to me, says the Lord.

And a person used to come to the wine vat to take out fifty jarfuls, but only twenty were there. 17 I destroyed your work with diseases, mildew, and hail, but you still did not come back to me,’ says the Lord.
