Yet even then I will not completely destroy you,” says the LORD.

『但永恆主發神諭說：就是當那些日子我也不將你們盡行毁滅。

惟其時我猶不盡滅爾、耶和華言之矣、

“ Yet even in those days,” declares the Lord,“ I will not destroy you completely.

“ In spite of that, even in those days I will not destroy you completely,” announces the Lord.

“ But even in those days, declares the Lord, I will not make a full end of you.

“ Yet even in those days I will not blot you out completely,” says the Lord.

“ But even in those days”— this is the LORD’s declaration—“ I will not finish you off.

“ Yet even in those days,” declares the Lord,“ I will not make a complete destruction of you.

“ Nevertheless in those days,” says the Lord,“ I will not make a complete end of you.

But even in those days, saith Jehovah, I will not make a full end with you.

“ But even in those days”— this is the Lord’s declaration—“ I will not finish you off.

All this will happen because the LORD said,“ The whole land will be desolate; however, I will not completely destroy it.

The LORD commanded the enemy,“ March through the vineyards of Israel and Judah and ruin them. But do not destroy them completely. Strip off their branches for these people do not belong to the LORD.

While they were striking them down, I was left alone, and I threw myself face down and cried out,“ Ah, sovereign LORD! Will you destroy the entire remnant of Israel when you pour out your fury on Jerusalem?”

So I ask, God has not rejected his people, has he? Absolutely not! For I too am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, from the tribe of Benjamin.God has not rejected his people whom he foreknew! Do you not know what the scripture says about Elijah, how he pleads with God against Israel?“ Lord, they have killed your prophets, they have demolished your altars; I alone am left and they are seeking my life!”But what was the divine response to him?“ I have kept for myself seven thousand people who have not bent the knee to Baal.”So in the same way at the present time there is a remnant chosen by grace.

Now, while I was prophesying, Pelatiah son of Benaiah died. Then I threw myself face down and cried out with a loud voice,“ Alas, sovereign LORD! You are completely wiping out the remnant of Israel!”
