Haggai 1:6
King James Version

Haggai 1:9-11
New International Version
9 “You expected much, but see, it turned out to be little.(A) What you brought home, I blew(B) away. Why?” declares the Lord Almighty. “Because of my house, which remains a ruin,(C) while each of you is busy with your own house. 10 Therefore, because of you the heavens have withheld(D) their dew(E) and the earth its crops.(F) 11 I called for a drought(G) on the fields and the mountains,(H) on the grain, the new wine,(I) the olive oil(J) and everything else the ground produces, on people and livestock, and on all the labor of your hands.(K)”
Haggai 1:9-11
King James Version
9 Ye looked for much, and, lo it came to little; and when ye brought it home, I did blow upon it. Why? saith the Lord of hosts. Because of mine house that is waste, and ye run every man unto his own house.
10 Therefore the heaven over you is stayed from dew, and the earth is stayed from her fruit.
11 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.
