9 Unless Jehovah of armies himself had left remaining to us just a few survivors,+ we should have become* just like Sodʹom, we should have resembled Go·morʹrah itself.+

21 A mere remnant* will return,* the remnant of Jacob, to the Mighty God.*+

27 Moreover, Isaiah cries out concerning Israel: “Although the number of the sons of Israel may be as the sand of the sea,+ it is the remnant that will be saved.+

5 In this way, therefore, at the present season also a remnant+ has turned up according to a choosing+ due to undeserved kindness.
