Romans 9:27-29

New Living Translation

“Though the people of Israel are as numerous as the sand of the seashore,
    only a remnant will be saved.
²⁸ For the Lord will carry out his sentence upon the earth
    quickly and with finality.”^[a]

“If the Lord of Heaven’s Armies
    had not spared a few of our children,
we would have been wiped out like Sodom,
    destroyed like Gomorrah.”^[b]
