2. Haggai 2:1-9 (New Living Translation)
1 Then on October 17 of the second year of King Darius’s reign, the Lord sent another message through the prophet Haggai. 2 “Say this to Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Jeshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest,
and to the remnant of God’s people there in the land: 
3  ‘Does anyone remember this house – this Temple –
in its former splendour? How, in comparison, does
it look to you now? It must seem like nothing at all! 
4 But now the Lord says: Be strong, Zerubbabel.
Be strong, Jeshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest.
Be strong, all you people still left in the land.
And now get to work, for I am with you,
says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies. 
5 My Spirit remains among you, just as I promised
when you came out of Egypt. So do not be afraid.’

3. Haggai 2:1-9 (New Living Translation)
6 “For this is what the Lord of Heaven’s Armies says:
In just a little while I will again shake the heavens and the earth, the oceans and the dry land. 7 I will shake all the nations, and the treasures of all the nations will be brought to this Temple. I will fill this place with glory,
says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies. 
8 The silver is mine, and the gold is mine,
says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies. 
9 The future glory of this Temple will be greater
than its past glory, says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies.
And in this place I will bring peace.
I, the Lord of Heaven’s Armies, have spoken!”
