[10:20] A time is coming when the people of Israel who have survived will not rely any more on the nation that almost destroyed them. They will truly put their trust in the Lord, Israel's holy God.
[10:21] A few of the people of Israel will come back to their mighty God.
[10:22] Even though now there are as many people of Israel as there are grains of sand by the sea, only a few will come back. Destruction is in store for the people, and it is fully deserved.
[10:23] Yes, throughout the whole country the Sovereign Lord Almighty will bring destruction, as he said he would.
