Encouragement and Promise of Greater Glory

1

In the seventh month , in the twenty and first of the month, hath a word of Jehovah been by the hand of Haggai the prophet, saying:

2

`Speak, I pray thee, unto Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and unto Joshua, son of Josedech, the high priest, and unto the remnant of the people, saying:

3

Who among you hath been left that saw this house in its former honour? And what are ye seeing it now? Is it not, compared with it, as nothing in your eyes?

4

And now, be strong, O Zerubbabel, An affirmation of Jehovah, And be strong, O Joshua, son of Josedech, the high priest, And be strong, all ye people of the land, An affirmation of Jehovah, And do ye--(for I am with you, An affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts) --

5

The thing that I covenanted with you, In your coming forth from Egypt, And My Spirit is remaining in your midst, fear not.

6

For thus said Jehovah of Hosts: Yet once more--it is a little, And I am shaking the heavens and the earth, And the sea, and the dry land,

7

And I have shaken all the nations, And they have come to the desire of all the nations, And I have filled this house with honour, Said Jehovah of Hosts.

8

Mine is the silver, and Mine the gold, An affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts.

9

Greater is the honour of this latter house, Than of the former, said Jehovah of Hosts, And in this place do I give peace, An affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts.'
