11 For I am with you, says Yahweh, to save you: for I will make a full end of all the nations where I have scattered you, but I will not make a full end of you; but I will correct you in measure, and will in no way leave you unpunished.
Yahweh, correct me, but in measure: not in your anger, lest you bring me to nothing.

That which Israel seeks for, that he didn't obtain, but the chosen ones obtained it, and the rest were hardened.
The Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Grace be with you. Amen.

Isaiah cries concerning Israel, "If the number of the children of Israel are as the sand of the sea, It is the remnant who will be saved; For He will finish the work and cut it short in righteousness, Because the LORD will make a short work upon the earth."
