Yahweh Chooses Zerubbabel

²⁰ Then the word of Yahweh came a second time to Haggai on the ^(A)twenty-fourth day of the month, saying, ²¹ “Speak to ^(B)Zerubbabel governor of Judah, saying, ‘I am going to ^(C)shake the heavens and the earth. ²² I will ^(D)overthrow the thrones of kingdoms and destroy the ^(E)strength of the kingdoms of the ^[a]nations; and I will ^(F)overthrow the chariots and their riders, and the ^(G)horses and their riders will go down, ^(H)everyone by the sword of another.’ ²³ ‘On that day,’ declares Yahweh of hosts, ‘I will take you, Zerubbabel, son of Shealtiel, My servant,’ declares Yahweh, ‘and I will make you like a ^[b](I)signet ring, for ^(J)I have chosen you,’” declares Yahweh of hosts.
