Romans 9:25-29
New American Standard Bible
25 as He also says in Hosea:
“(A)I will call those who were not My people, ‘My people,’
And her who was not beloved, ‘beloved.’”
26 “(B)And it shall be that in the place where it was said to them, ‘you are not My people,’
There they shall be called sons of (C)the living God.”
27 Isaiah cries out concerning Israel, “(D)Though the number of the sons of Israel may be (E)like the sand of the sea, only (F)the remnant will be saved; 28 (G)for the Lord will execute His word on the earth, [a]thoroughly and [b]quickly.” 29 And just as Isaiah foretold:
“(H)If (I)the Lord [c]of armies had not left us [d](J)descendants,
(K)We would have become like Sodom, and would have [e]been like Gomorrah.”

Revised Standard Version
25 As indeed he says in Hose′a,
“Those who were not my people
I will call ‘my people,’
and her who was not beloved
I will call ‘my beloved.’”
26 “And in the very place where it was said to them, ‘You are not my people,’
they will be called ‘sons of the living God.’”
27 And Isaiah cries out concerning Israel: “Though the number of the sons of Israel be as the sand of the sea, only a remnant of them will be saved; 28 for the Lord will execute his sentence upon the earth with rigor and dispatch.” 29 And as Isaiah predicted,
“If the Lord of hosts had not left us children,
we would have fared like Sodom and been made like Gomor′rah.”
