Isaiah 6:12-13

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹² until the Lord sends everyone far away,
    and vast is the emptiness in the midst of the land.
¹³ Even if a tenth part remain in it,
    it will be burned again,
like a terebinth or an oak
    whose stump remains standing
    when it is felled.”^[a]
The holy seed is its stump.
