- a remnant:
- "Butª whatª saithª° the¹ answer of Godª unto him?ª I have reservedª° to myselfª seven thousandª men,ª whoª have²° notª bowedª° the kneeª to [the image of] Baal.ª ... Andª ifª by grace,ª then [is it] no moreª² ofª works:ª otherwiseª graceª isª° no moreª² grace.ª Butª ifª [it be] ofª works,ª then is¹ it²° no moreª² grace:ª otherwiseª workª isª° no moreª² work.ª" {Rom 11:4-6} + "And now¹ for a littleª spaceª graceª hath been¹ [shewed] from¹¹ the LORDª our God,ª to leaveª° us a remnant to escape,ª and to giveª° us a nailª in his holyª place,ª that our Godª may lightenª° our eyes,ª and giveª° us a littleª revivingª in our bondage.ª" {Ezr 9:8} + "Should we againª° breakª° thy commandments,ª and join in affinityª° with the peopleª of these¹ abominations?ª wouldest not¹ thou be angryª° with us till¹ thou hadst consumedª° [us], so that [there should be] no¹ remnantª nor escaping?ª" {Ezr 9:14} + "Exceptª the LORDª of hostsª had leftª° unto us a very smallª remnant,ª we should have beenª° as Sodom,ª [and] we should have been likeª° unto Gomorrah.ª" {Isa 1:9} + "And it shall come to pass¹ in that¹ day,ª [that] the remnantª of Israel,ª and such as are escapedª of the houseª of Jacob,ª shall no¹ more¹ againª° stayª° upon¹ him that smoteª° them; but shall stayª° upon¹ the LORD,ª the Holy Oneª of Israel,ª in truth.ª ... The remnantª shall return,ª° [even] the remnantª of Jacob,ª unto¹ the mightyª God.ª" {Isa 10:20-21} + "And it shall come to pass¹ in that¹ day,ª [that] the Lordª shall set²° his handª againª° the second timeª to recoverª°¹ the remnantª of his people,ª which¹ shall be left,ª° from Assyria,ª¹ and from Egypt,ª¹ and from Pathros,ª¹ and from Cush,ª¹ and from Elam,ª¹ and from Shinar,ª¹ and from Hamath,ª¹ and from the islandsª¹ of the sea.ª" {Isa 11:11} + "When¹ thus¹ it shall be¹ in the midstª of the landª amongª the people,ª [there shall be] as the shakingª of an olive tree,ª [and] as the gleaning grapesª when¹ the vintageª is done.ª°" {Isa 24:13} + "Go ye upª° upon her walls,ª and destroy;ª° but makeª° not¹ a full end:ª take awayª° her battlements;ª for¹ they¹ [are] not¹ the LORD'S.ª" {Jer 5:10} + "Yet will I leave a remnant,ª° that ye may have¹ [some] that shall escapeª the swordª among the nations,ª when ye shall be scatteredª° through the countries.ª" {Ezk 6:8} + "Therefore¹ will he give them up,ª° until¹ the timeª [that] she which travailethª° hath brought forth:ª° then the remnantª of his brethrenª shall returnª° unto¹ the childrenª of Israel.ª ... And the remnantª of Jacobª shall be¹ among the Gentilesª in the midstª of manyª peopleª as a lionª among the beastsª of the forest,ª as a young lionª among the flocksª of sheep:ª who,¹ if¹ he go through,ª° both treadeth down,ª° and teareth in pieces,ª° and none¹ can deliver.ª°" {Mic 5:3-8}
