Haggai 2:1-8 ▼

1 In the seventh month, in the one and twentieth day of the month, came the word of the LORD by Haggai the prophet, saying:

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

3 Who is left among you that saw this house in its former glory? and how do ye see it now? is not such a one as nothing in your eyes?

4 Yet now be strong, O Zerubbabel, saith the LORD; and be strong, O Joshua, son of Jehozadak, the high priest; and be strong, all ye people of the land, saith the LORD, and work; for I am with you, saith the LORD of hosts.

5 The word that I covenanted with you when ye came out of Egypt have I established, and My spirit abideth among you; fear ye not.

6 For thus saith the LORD of hosts: Yet once, it is a little while, and I will shake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land;

7 and I will shake all nations, and the choicest things of all nations shall come, and I will fill this house with glory, saith the LORD of hosts.

8 Mine is the silver, and Mine the gold, saith the LORD of hosts.
