24 namely us, whom He also (A)called, (B)not only from among Jews, but also from among Gentiles, 25 as He also says in Hosea:

(C)I will call those who were not My people, ‘My people,’
And her who was not beloved, ‘beloved.’”
26 (D)And it shall be that in the place where it was said to them, ‘you are not My people,’
There they shall be called sons of (E)the living God.”

27 Isaiah cries out concerning Israel, “(F)Though the number of the sons of Israel may be (G)like the sand of the sea, only (H)the remnant will be saved; 28 (I)for the Lord will execute His word on the earth, [a]thoroughly and [b]quickly.” 29 And just as Isaiah foretold:

(J)If (K)the Lord [c]of armies had not left us [d](L)descendants,
(M)We would have become like Sodom, and would have [e]been like Gomorrah.”
