And now, for a little time grace has been shown from Jehovah our God to leave us a remnant to escape, and to give us a nail in His holy place, so that our God may enlighten our eyes and give us a little reviving in our bondage.
And the first-born of the poor ones shall feed; and the needy ones shall lie down in safety; and I will cause your root to die with famine; and it shall kill your remnant.
Who among you fears Jehovah, obeying the voice of His Servant, who walks in darkness, and no light is in Him? Let Him trust in the name of Jehovah, and lean on His God.
But yet a tenth shall be in it, and it shall return and be burned like the terebinth tree and like the oak that in being felled yet has its stump (the holy seed is its stump).
In those days, and at that time, a statement of Jehovah, the iniquity of Israel shall be sought for, and it is not; and the sins of Judah, and they will not be found; for I will pardon those whom I leave as a remnant.
And they shall feed upon the land of Assyria with the sword, and the land of Nimrod at her entrances. And He shall deliver us from Assyria, when he comes into our land, and when he treads within our border.
And I fed the flock of slaughter, the true humble one of the flock. And I took two staffs for Myself: the one I called Kindness, and the other I called Union. And I fed the flock.
Hear, my beloved brothers, did not God choose the poor ones of this world to be rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which He promised to the ones loving Him?
