²⁰ Then, the few that remain of Israel,
    that handful of Jacob’s people who escape,
Will finally quit depending on the power of others
    (others who abuse and take advantage of them)
And will instead lean on the Eternal One, the Holy One of Israel.
²¹ This remnant of Jacob’s people who endure and escape the great destruction
    will come back to the Mighty One, to the embrace of God.
²² But don’t doubt—though the number of the people of Israel
    are like the sand of the sea,
Only a remnant of them will be rescued and return to survive.
    For destruction is sure—the matter settled—God is absolutely right to do so.
