After these things, during the reign of Artaxerxes king of Persia, Ezra son of Seraiah, the son of Azariah, the son of Hilkiah, (niv)

Thus the work on the house of God in Jerusalem came to a standstill until the second year of the reign of Darius king of Persia.Now Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the prophet, a descendant of Iddo, prophesied to the Jews in Judah and Jerusalem in the name of the God of Israel, who was over them.Then Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel and Joshua son of Jozadak set to work to rebuild the house of God in Jerusalem. And the prophets of God were with them, supporting them. (niv)

“ However, in the first year of Cyrus king of Babylon, King Cyrus issued a decree to rebuild this house of God. (niv)

May God, who has caused his Name to dwell there, overthrow any king or people who lifts a hand to change this decree or to destroy this temple in Jerusalem. I Darius have decreed it. Let it be carried out with diligence.Then, because of the decree King Darius had sent, Tattenai, governor of Trans-Euphrates, and Shethar-Bozenai and their associates carried it out with diligence. (niv)

In the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, in order to fulfill the word of the Lord spoken by Jeremiah, the Lord moved the heart of Cyrus king of Persia to make a proclamation throughout his realm and also to put it in writing:“ This is what Cyrus king of Persia says:“‘ The Lord, the God of heaven, has given me all the kingdoms of the earth and he has appointed me to build a temple for him at Jerusalem in Judah.Any of his people among you may go up to Jerusalem in Judah and build the temple of the Lord, the God of Israel, the God who is in Jerusalem, and may their God be with them.And in any locality where survivors may now be living, the people are to provide them with silver and gold, with goods and livestock, and with freewill offerings for the temple of God in Jerusalem.’” (niv)

“ The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this temple; his hands will also complete it. Then you will know that the Lord Almighty has sent me to you. (niv)

Go up into the mountains and bring down timber and build my house, so that I may take pleasure in it and be honored,” says the Lord. (niv)

Then Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, Joshua son of Jozadak, the high priest, and the whole remnant of the people obeyed the voice of the Lord their God and the message of the prophet Haggai, because the Lord their God had sent him. And the people feared the Lord.Then Haggai, the Lord’s messenger, gave this message of the Lord to the people:“ I am with you,” declares the Lord.So the Lord stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua son of Jozadak, the high priest, and the spirit of the whole remnant of the people. They came and began to work on the house of the Lord Almighty, their God, (niv)

But Zerubbabel, Joshua and the rest of the heads of the families of Israel answered,“ You have no part with us in building a temple to our God. We alone will build it for the Lord, the God of Israel, as King Cyrus, the king of Persia, commanded us.” (niv)

In the second month of the second year after their arrival at the house of God in Jerusalem, Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, Joshua son of Jozadak and the rest of the people( the priests and the Levites and all who had returned from the captivity to Jerusalem) began the work. They appointed Levites twenty years old and older to supervise the building of the house of the Lord. (niv)

Then I looked up, and there before me was a man with a measuring line in his hand.I asked,“ Where are you going?” He answered me,“ To measure Jerusalem, to find out how wide and how long it is.”While the angel who was speaking to me was leaving, another angel came to meet himand said to him:“ Run, tell that young man,‘ Jerusalem will be a city without walls because of the great number of people and animals in it. (niv)

“ Speak to Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, to Joshua son of Jozadak, the high priest, and to the remnant of the people. Ask them,‘ Who of you is left who saw this house in its former glory? How does it look to you now? Does it not seem to you like nothing?But now be strong, Zerubbabel,’ declares the Lord.‘ Be strong, Joshua son of Jozadak, the high priest. Be strong, all you people of the land,’ declares the Lord,‘ and work. For I am with you,’ declares the Lord Almighty.‘ This is what I covenanted with you when you came out of Egypt. And my Spirit remains among you. Do not fear.’“ This is what the Lord Almighty says:‘ In a little while I will once more shake the heavens and the earth, the sea and the dry land.I will shake all nations, and what is desired by all nations will come, and I will fill this house with glory,’ says the Lord Almighty.‘ The silver is mine and the gold is mine,’ declares the Lord Almighty.‘ The glory of this present house will be greater than the glory of the former house,’ says the Lord Almighty.‘ And in this place I will grant peace,’ declares the Lord Almighty.”On the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, in the second year of Darius, the word of the Lord came to the prophet Haggai:“ This is what the Lord Almighty says:‘ Ask the priests what the law says:If someone carries consecrated meat in the fold of their garment, and that fold touches some bread or stew, some wine, olive oil or other food, does it become consecrated?’” The priests answered,“ No.”Then Haggai said,“ If a person defiled by contact with a dead body touches one of these things, does it become defiled?”“ Yes,” the priests replied,“ it becomes defiled.”Then Haggai said,“‘ So it is with this people and this nation in my sight,’ declares the Lord.‘ Whatever they do and whatever they offer there is defiled.“‘ Now give careful thought to this from this day on— consider how things were before one stone was laid on another in the Lord’s temple. (niv)

who says of Cyrus,‘ He is my shepherd and will accomplish all that I please; he will say of Jerusalem,“ Let it be rebuilt,” and of the temple,“ Let its foundations be laid.”’ (niv)

I looked up again, and there before me were four chariots coming out from between two mountains— mountains of bronze.The first chariot had red horses, the second black,the third white, and the fourth dappled— all of them powerful.I asked the angel who was speaking to me,“ What are these, my lord?”The angel answered me,“ These are the four spirits of heaven, going out from standing in the presence of the Lord of the whole world.The one with the black horses is going toward the north country, the one with the white horses toward the west, and the one with the dappled horses toward the south.”When the powerful horses went out, they were straining to go throughout the earth. And he said,“ Go throughout the earth!” So they went throughout the earth.Then he called to me,“ Look, those going toward the north country have given my Spirit rest in the land of the north.”The word of the Lord came to me:“ Take silver and gold from the exiles Heldai, Tobijah and Jedaiah, who have arrived from Babylon. Go the same day to the house of Josiah son of Zephaniah.Take the silver and gold and make a crown, and set it on the head of the high priest, Joshua son of Jozadak.Tell him this is what the Lord Almighty says:‘ Here is the man whose name is the Branch, and he will branch out from his place and build the temple of the Lord.It is he who will build the temple of the Lord, and he will be clothed with majesty and will sit and rule on his throne. And he will be a priest on his throne. And there will be harmony between the two.’The crown will be given to Heldai, Tobijah, Jedaiah and Hen son of Zephaniah as a memorial in the temple of the Lord.Those who are far away will come and help to build the temple of the Lord, and you will know that the Lord Almighty has sent me to you. This will happen if you diligently obey the Lord your God.” (niv)
