A Remnant Shall Be Delivered

7 Then ^ethe remnant of Jacob shall be
in the midst of many peoples
like dew from the Lord,
like showers on the grass,
which delay not for a man
nor wait for the children of man.
8 And ^fthe remnant of Jacob shall be among the nations,
in the midst of many peoples,
like a lion among the beasts of the forest,
like a young lion among the flocks of sheep,
^gwhich, when it goes through, treads down
and tears in pieces, and there is none to deliver.

Zephaniah 2:7

7 ^hThe seacoast shall become the possession
of ⁱthe remnant of the house of Judah,
^jon which they shall graze,
and in the houses of Ashkelon
they shall lie down at evening.
For the Lord their God ^kwill be mindful of them
and ^lrestore their fortunes.

Zephaniah 3:13

13 ^mthose who are left in Israel;
they ⁿshall do no injustice
and speak no lies,
^onor shall there be found in their mouth
a deceitful tongue.
^pFor they shall graze and lie down,
and none shall make them afraid.”
