3 Who is left among you that saw this house in her first glory? and how do ye see her now? Is she not as nothing before your eyes?
4 Yet now be strong, O Zerubbabel, said the Lord; and be strong, O Joshua, son of Josedech, the high priest; and be strong, all ye people of this land, said the Lord, and work; for I am with you, said the Lord of the hosts:
5 The word that I covenanted with you when ye came out of Egypt and my Spirit is in the midst of you: do not fear.
6 For thus hath the Lord of the hosts said: Yet even once, and I will shake the heavens and the earth and the sea and the dry land;
7 and I will shake all the Gentiles; and the desire of all the Gentiles shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, said the Lord of the hosts.
8 The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, said the Lord of the hosts.
9 The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former, said the Lord of the hosts, and in this place I will give peace, said the Lord of the hosts.
