11 And I replied, For how long, my Lord? And he said,
Until the cities lie desolate
and without inhabitant,
the houses without a man,
and the land ravaged to ruin.
12 For Jehovah will drive men away,
and great shall be the exodus
from the centers of the land.
13 And while yet a tenth of the people
remain in it, or return,
they shall be burned.
But like the terebinth or the oak
when it is felled, whose stump remains alive,
so shall the holy offspring be what is left standing.
(Isaiah 6)
