Haggai

Haggai 2:4–5

4But now be strong, O Zerubbabel,

declares the LORD.

Be strong, O Joshua son of Jehozadak,

the high priest.

And be strong, all you people of the land,

declares the LORD.

Work! For I am with you,

declares the LORD of Hosts.

5This is the promise I made to you

when you came out of Egypt.

And My Spirit remains among you;

do not be afraid.”
