¶ Yet gleaning shall be left in it as when the olive tree is shaken; two or three berries are left in the top of the uppermost bough, four or five in the outmost fruitful branches thereof, saith the LORD God of Israel.

At that day man shall look to his Maker, and his eyes shall see the Holy One of Israel.

And he shall not look to the altars, the work of his hands; neither shall he look upon that which his fingers have made, either the groves or the images of the sun.

Yet some gleanings will remain,(A)
    as when an olive tree is beaten,(B)
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(C) people will look(D) to their Maker(E)
    and turn their eyes to the Holy One(F) of Israel.
They will not look to the altars,(G)
    the work of their hands,(H)
and they will have no regard for the Asherah poles[a](I)
    and the incense altars their fingers(J) have made.
