Romans 9:27-29 Esaias also crieth concerning Israel, "Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, this remnant shall be saved."

Thomson⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁷ Esaias also crieth concerning Israel, "Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, this remnant shall be saved." ²⁸ For he is closing an account and making a deduction with saving goodness. Because the Lord will make with the land a reckoning from which a deduction is made, ²⁹ therefore as Esaias said. "Had not the Lord of hosts left us a seed, we must have been like Sodom and become like Gomorrah."
