Haggai 2:9

2:9 ‘The future splendor of this temple will be greater than that of former times,’ ²  the Lord who rules over all declares, ‘and in this place I will give peace.’” ³ 

¹ tn Heb “this house in its earlier splendor”; NAB, NIV, NRSV “in its former glory.”

² tn Heb “greater will be the latter splendor of this house than the former”; NAB “greater will be the future glory.”

³ 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).
