Genesis 26:12
12And Isaac sowed in that land and reaped in the same year a hundredfold. The Lord ablessed him,Psalms 65:9-13
9 You visit the earth and bwater it; ▼▼Or and make it overflow
you greatly enrich it;
dthe river of God is full of water;
eyou provide their grain,
for so you have prepared it.
10You water its furrows abundantly,
settling its ridges,
softening it with fshowers,
and blessing its growth.
11You crown the year with your bounty;
your wagon tracks goverflow with abundance.
12 hThe pastures of the wilderness overflow,
the hills igird themselves with joy,
13 jthe meadows clothe themselves with flocks,
the valleys deck themselves with grain,
they kshout and sing together for joy.
Joel 1:10-12
10The fields are destroyed,lthe ground mourns,
because mthe grain is destroyed,
nthe wine dries up,
the oil languishes.
11 oBe ashamed, ▼ O tillers of the soil;
wail, O vinedressers,
for the wheat and the barley,
qbecause the harvest of the field has perished.
12The vine dries up;
rthe fig tree languishes.
Pomegranate, palm, and apple,
all the trees of the field are dried up,
and sgladness dries up
from the children of man.
Haggai 1:5-6
5Now, therefore, thus says the Lord of hosts: tConsider your ways. 6 uYou have sown much, and harvested little. vYou eat, but you never have enough; you drink, but you never have your fill. You clothe yourselves, but no one is warm. And he who wearns wages does so to put them into a bag with holes.Haggai 1:10-11
10Therefore xthe heavens above you have withheld the dew, and the earth has withheld its produce. 11And yI have called for a drought on the land and the hills, on zthe grain, the new wine, the oil, on what the ground brings forth, on man and beast, and aaon all their labors.”Haggai 2:16-19
16how did you fare? abWhen ▼▼Probable reading (compare Septuagint); Hebrew Lord, since they were. When
one came to a heap of twenty measures, there were but ten. When one came to the wine vat to draw fifty measures, there were but twenty. 17 adI struck you and all the products of your toil with blight and with mildew and with hail, aeyet you did not turn to me, declares the Lord. 18 afConsider from this day onward, agfrom the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month. Since ahthe day that the foundation of the Lord’s temple was laid, aiconsider: 19 ajIs the seed yet in the barn? Indeed, the vine, the fig tree, the pomegranate, and the olive tree have yielded nothing. But from this day on akI will bless you.” Zechariah 8:12
12 alFor there shall be a sowing of peace. The vine shall give its fruit, and the ground shall give its produce, amand the heavens shall give their dew. anAnd I will cause the remnant of this people to possess all these things.
