Haggai 2:8-9

Context
2:8 ‘The silver and gold will be mine,’ says the Lord who rules over all. 2:9 ‘The future splendor of this temple will be greater than that of former times,’ 1  the Lord who rules over all declares, ‘and in this place I will give peace.’” 2 

1 tn Heb “greater will be the latter splendor of this house than the former”; NAB “greater will be the future glory.”

2 tn In the Hebrew text there is an implicit play on words in the clause “in this place [i.e., Jerusalem] I will give peace”: in יְרוּשָׁלַיִם (yÿrushalayim) there will be שָׁלוֹם (shalom).
