Discovery Box| (1.00) | Zep 3:8 |
| Therefore you must wait patiently 1 for me,” says the Lord, “for the day when I attack and take plunder. 2 I have decided 3 to gather nations together and assemble kingdoms, so I can pour out my fury on them – all my raging anger. For 4 the whole earth will be consumed by my fiery anger. |
| (1.00) | Zep 3:9 |

| (1.00) | Zep 3:13 |
| The Israelites who remain 1 will not act deceitfully. They will not lie, and a deceitful tongue will not be found in their mouth. Indeed, they will graze peacefully like sheep 2 and lie down; no one will terrify them.” |

| At that time I will lead you – at the time I gather you together. 1 Be sure of this! 2 I will make all the nations of the earth respect and admire you 3 when you see me restore you,” 4 says the Lord. |

| The Lord who rules over all 1 says this: “These people have said, ‘The time for rebuilding the Lord’s temple has not yet come.’” 2 |

| (1.00) | Hag 1:6 |

| Then Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel and the high priest Joshua son of Jehozadak, 1 along with the whole remnant of the people, 2 obeyed 3 the Lord their God.

| (1.00) | Hag 1:14 |
| So the Lord energized and encouraged 1 Zerubbabel 2 son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, the high priest Joshua son of Jehozadak, 3 and the whole remnant of the people. 4 They came and worked on the temple of their God, the Lord who rules over all. |

| (1.00) | Hag 2:14 |
