Haggai 2:1-5

1On the twenty-first of the seventh month, the word of the Lord came by 1Haggai the prophet, saying,

2“Speak now to 2Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, 3governor of Judah, and to 4Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and to the 5remnant of the people, saying,

3‘Who is 6left among you who saw this 7temple in its 8former glory? And how do you see it now? 9Does it not seem to you like nothing 10in comparison?

4But now 11 12take courage, Zerubbabel,’ declares the Lord, ‘take courage also, Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and all you people of the land take courage,’ declares the Lord, ‘and work; for 13I am with you,’ declares the Lord of armies.

5‘As for the 14 15promise which I 16made you when you came out of Egypt, 17My 18Spirit remains in your midst; 19do not fear!’
