content: '' even when there's a content.

I am using this basic code -

const {
  Client,
  Collection,
  Events,
  GatewayIntentBits,
  EmbedBuilder,
} = require("discord.js");
const token = process.env["TOKEN"];
const client = new Client({
  intents: [
    GatewayIntentBits.Guilds,
    GatewayIntentBits.GuildMembers,
    GatewayIntentBits.GuildPresences,
    GatewayIntentBits.GuildVoiceStates,
    GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessages
  ],
}); 

client.on(Events.MessageCreate, (message) => {
  console.log(message);
  if (message.author.bot) return;
  message.channel.send(`${message.content} - Test`);
}); 

client.login(token);

const {
  Client,
  Collection,
  Events,
  GatewayIntentBits,
  EmbedBuilder,
} = require("discord.js");
const token = process.env["TOKEN"];
const client = new Client({
  intents: [
    GatewayIntentBits.Guilds,
    GatewayIntentBits.GuildMembers,
    GatewayIntentBits.GuildPresences,
    GatewayIntentBits.GuildVoiceStates,
    GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessages
  ],
}); 

client.on(Events.MessageCreate, (message) => {
  console.log(message);
  if (message.author.bot) return;
  message.channel.send(`${message.content} - Test`);
}); 

client.login(token);

The message.content is always empty even when there's some content in message.

If you aren't getting content, embeds or attachments of a message, make sure you have the MessageContent intent enabled in the Developer Portal and provide it to your client:

const { Client, GatewayIntentBits } = require('discord.js');
const client = new Client({
    intents: [GatewayIntentBits.Guilds, GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessages, GatewayIntentBits.MessageContent]
});

const { Client, GatewayIntentBits } = require('discord.js');
const client = new Client({
    intents: [GatewayIntentBits.Guilds, GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessages, GatewayIntentBits.MessageContent]
});
