How do you see it now? Is it not in your sight as nothing? 4 Yet now take courage, O Zerub′babel, says the Lord; take courage, O Joshua, son of Jehoz′adak, the high priest; take courage, all you people of the land, says the Lord; work, for I am with you, says the Lord of hosts, 5 according to the promise that I made you when you came out of Egypt. My Spirit abides among you; fear not.
