It will be as when workers cut and gather grain
    in the Valley of Rephaim.
They gather up stalks in their arms.
    Only a few heads of grain are left.
In the same way, only a few people will be left alive.
    It will be as when workers knock olives off the trees.
Only two or three olives are left on the highest branches.
    Four or five at most are left on the limbs that produce fruit,”
    announces the Lord, the God of Israel.

In days to come, people will look to their Maker for help.
    They will turn their eyes to the Holy One of Israel.

It will be as when reapers harvest the standing grain,
    gathering(A) the grain in their arms—
as when someone gleans heads of grain(B)
    in the Valley of Rephaim.(C)
Yet some gleanings will remain,(D)
    as when an olive tree is beaten,(E)
leaving two or three olives on the topmost branches,
    four or five on the fruitful boughs,”
declares the Lord, the God of Israel.

In that day(F) people will look(G) to their Maker(H)
    and turn their eyes to the Holy One(I) of Israel.
