Haggai 2:9

9 ‘The future splendor of this temple will be greater than that of former times,’ ^{▼▼ Heb “greater will be the latter splendor of this house than the former”; NAB “greater will be the future glory.”} the Lord who rules over all declares, ‘and in this place I will give peace.’” ^{▼▼ 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 (y^erushalayim) there will be שָׁלוֹם (shalom).}
