Haggai 1:6

6 ^aYou have sown much, and harvested little. ^bYou 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 ^cearns wages does so to put them into a bag with holes.

Haggai 1:9

9 ^dYou looked for much, and behold, it came to little. And when you brought it home, ^eI blew it away. Why? declares the Lord of hosts. Because of my house ^fthat lies in ruins, while each of you busies himself with his own house.

Haggai 2:16-17

16 how did you fare? ^gWhen ^{▼▼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 ⁱI struck you and all the products of your toil with blight and with mildew and with hail, ^jyet you did not turn to me, declares the Lord.

Luke 23:28-30

28 But turning to them Jesus said, “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children. 29 For behold, ^kthe days are coming when they will say, ^l‘Blessed are the barren and the wombs that never bore and the breasts that never nursed!’ 30 ^mThen they will begin to say to the mountains, ‘Fall on us,’ and to the hills, ‘Cover us.’
