20 And it shall come to pass in that day
That the remnant of Israel,
And such as have escaped of the house of Jacob,
(A)Will never again depend on him who [a]defeated them,
But will depend on the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, in truth.
21 The remnant will return, the remnant of Jacob,
To the (B)Mighty God.
22 (C)For though your people, O Israel, be as the sand of the sea,
(D)A remnant of them will return;
The destruction decreed shall overflow with righteousness.
