6 ⁹ And the word of Yahweh came to me: 6 ¹⁰ "Take from the exiles Heldai, Tobijah, and Jedaiah, who have arrived from Babylon; and go the same day to the house of Josiah, the son of Zephaniah. 6 ¹¹ Take from them silver and gold, and make a crown, and set it upon the head of Joshua, the son of Jehozadak, the high priest; 6 ¹² and say to him, 'Thus says Yahweh of hosts, "Behold, the man whose name is the Branch: for he shall grow up in his place, and he shall build the temple of Yahweh. 6 ¹³ It is he who shall build the temple of Yahweh, and shall bear royal honour, and shall sit and rule upon his throne. And there shall be a priest by his throne, and peaceful understanding shall be between them both." ' 6 ¹⁴ And the crown shall be in the temple of Yahweh as a reminder to Heldai, Tobijah, Jedaiah, and Josiah the son of Zephaniah.

6 ¹⁵ "And those who are far off shall come and help to build the temple of Yahweh; and you shall know that Yahweh of hosts has sent me to you. And this shall come to pass, if you will diligently obey the voice of Yahweh your God."
