18. Today you have completed the foundation for my temple, so listen to what your future will be like.
19. Although you have not yet harvested any grain, grapes, figs, pomegranates, or olives, I will richly bless you in the days ahead.
20. That same day the Lord spoke to Haggai again and said:
21. Tell Governor Zerubbabel of Judah that I am going to shake the heavens and the earth
22. and wipe out kings and their kingdoms. I will overturn war chariots, and then cavalry troops will start slaughtering each other.
23. But tell my servant Zerubbabel that I, the Lord All-Powerful, have chosen him, and he will rule in my name.
