But the Lord will never leave off his mercy, neither shall any of his works perish, neither will he abolish the posterity of his elect, and the seed of him that loveth him he will not take away: wherefore he gave a remnant unto Jacob, and out of him a root unto David.
But the Lord never abandons his mercy, and none of his purposes will fail; he will not destroy the descendants of his chosen one, nor take away the line of the one who loves him — so he left a remnant to Jacob, and from him a root for David.
