Haggai 2:3-5

New Century Version

³ ‘Do any of you remember how great the Temple was before it was destroyed? What does it look like now? Doesn’t it seem like nothing to you?’ ⁴ But the Lord says, ‘Zerubbabel, be brave. Also, Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest, be brave. And all you people who live in the land, be brave,’ says the Lord. ‘Work, because I am with you,’ says the Lord All-Powerful. ⁵ ‘I made a promise to you when you came out of Egypt, and my Spirit is still with you. So don’t be afraid.’
