Deuteronomy 28:38
37 You will become an occasion of horror, a proverb, and an object of ridicule to all the peoples to whom the Lord will drive you. 38 “You will take much seed to the field but gather little harvest, because locusts will consume it. 39 You will plant vineyards and cultivate them, but you will not drink wine or gather in grapes, because worms will eat them. 40 You will have olive trees throughout your territory, but you will not anoint yourself with olive oil, because the olives will drop off the trees while still unripe.
Haggai 1:6
5 Here then, this is what the Lord of Heaven’s Armies has said: ‘Think carefully about what you are doing. 6 You have planted much, but have harvested little. You eat, but are never filled. You drink, but are still thirsty. You put on clothes, but are not warm. Those who earn wages end up with holes in their money bags.’” 7 Moreover, this is what the Lord of Heaven’s Armies has said: “Pay close attention to these things also.
Notes and References
"... despite the prose style of Haggai, there is the use of parallelism. Haggai utilizes antithetical parallelism (the juxtaposition of opposites) as a means to intensify his message. For example, in chapter 1: “You have sown much but harvest little” (Haggai 1:6; see also Haggai 1:4, 9–10). Fourth, allusions to other texts and quotations abound as well. Haggai 1:6 has striking connection with Deuteronomy 28:38–40, and 2:17 with verse 22 of Deuteronomy 28. Indeed, the whole context of blessings and cursings undergird the tone of these oracles ..."
