‏ Haggai 2:9

9 “The future splendor of this temple will be greater than that of former times,” ^{▼▼tn Heb “greater will be the latter splendor of this house than the former”; NAB “greater will be the future glory.”} the Lord of Heaven’s Armies has declared. “And in this place I will give peace,” decrees the Lord of Heaven’s Armies. ^{▼▼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 (yerushalayim) there will be שָׁלוֹם (shalom).}
