Test Me in this,” says the LORD of Hosts. “See if I will not open the windows of heaven and pour out for you blessing without measure.^b ¹¹I will rebuke the devourer^c for you, so that it will not destroy the fruits of your land, and the vine in your field will not fail to produce fruit,” says the LORD of Hosts.

¹²“Then all the nations will call you blessed, for you will be a land of delight,” says the LORD of Hosts.
