‘If it is1 marvelous in the eyes of the remnant of this people in these days,
aWill it also be marvelous in My eyes?’
Says the Lord of hosts.
‘Behold, aI will save My people from the land of the1 east
And from the land of the1 west;
And they shall dwell in the midst of Jerusalem.
bThey shall be My people
And I will be their God,
cIn truth and righteousness.’
a‘Let your hands be strong,
You who have been hearing in these days
These words by the mouth of bthe prophets,
Who spoke in cthe day the foundation was laid
For the house of the Lord of hosts,
That the temple might be built.
There were no awages for man nor any hire for beast;
There was no peace from the enemy for whoever went out or came in;
For I set all men, everyone, against his neighbor.
