11 Then I said, “Until when, Lord?”

And he said,

“Until the cities lie wasted without inhabitant,
    and houses without people,
    and the land is ruined and a waste,
12 and Yahweh sends the people far away,
    and the abandonment is great in the midst of the land.
13 And even if only a tenth part remain,[a] again she will be destroyed[b]
    like a terebinth or like an oak,
    which although felled, a tree stump remains in them.
The seed of holiness will be her tree stump.”
