(2-17) bagaimana keadaanmu? Ketika orang pergi melihat suatu timbunan gandum yang seharusnya sebanyak dua puluh gantang, hanya ada sepuluh; dan ketika orang pergi ke tempat pemerasan anggur untuk mencedok lima puluh takar, hanya ada dua puluh.
Maka sekarang, hendaklah kiranya kamu memperhatikan hal itu dari pada hari ini dan yang sudah lalu, dahulu dari pada batu ditumpangkan di atas batu pada kaabah Tuhan.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Since those [days] were,.... From the time the foundation of the temple was laid, unto the time they began to work again, which was a space of about fifteen or sixteen years:
when [one] came to an heap of twenty [measures], there were [but] ten; when the husbandman having gathered in his corn, and who was generally a good judge of what it would yield, came to a heap of it on his corn floor, either of sheaves not threshed, or grain not winnowed, and expected it would have produced at least twenty measures, seahs, or bushels; afterward it was threshed and winnowed, to his great disappointment he had but ten out of it; there were so much straw and chaff, and so little grain; or when he came to a heap of grain, wheat, or barley, in his granary, where he thought he should have twenty bushels of it; but when he had measured it, proved but ten; being either stolen by thieves, or eaten by vermin; rather the latter:
when [one] came to the wine vat for to draw out fifty [vessels] out of the press, there were [but] twenty; by the quantity of grapes which he put into the press to tread and squeeze, he expected to have had fifty measures, or baths, or hogsheads of wine; but, instead of that, had but twenty; the bunches were so thin, or the berries so bad: there was a greater decrease and deficiency in the wine than in the grain.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Haggai 2:16. Since those days were — I have shown my displeasure against you, by sending blasting and mildew; and so poor have been your crops that a heap of corn which should have produced twenty measures produced only ten; and that quantity of grapes which in other years would have produced fifty measures, through their poverty, smallness, c., produced only twenty. And this has been the case ever since the first stone was laid in this temple for your hearts were not right with me, and therefore I blasted you in all the labours of your hands; and yet ye have not turned to me, Haggai 2:17.
