Haggai 2:10-12

New Living Translation

Blessings Promised for Obedience

¹⁰ On December 18^[a] of the second year of King Darius’s reign, the Lord sent this message to the prophet Haggai: ¹¹ “This is what the Lord of Heaven’s Armies says. Ask the priests this question about the law: ¹² ‘If one of you is carrying some meat from a holy sacrifice in his robes and his robe happens to brush against some bread or stew, wine or olive oil, or any other kind of food, will it also become holy?’”

The priests replied, “No.”
