(D)Would You not be angry with us [b]to the point of destruction, until there is no remnant nor any who escape? 15 O Lord God of Israel, (E)You are righteous, for we have been left an escaped remnant, as it is this day; behold, we are before You in (F)our guilt, for (G)no one can stand before You because of this.”
