12 ·The Lord will send [or …until the Lord has sent] the people far away [C into exile],
    and the [L midst of the] land will be ·left empty [utterly/completely abandoned].
13 Even if only one-tenth of the people are left in the land,
    it will be ·destroyed [or burned] again.
These people will be like ·an oak tree [L a terebinth or an oak]
    whose stump is left when the tree is chopped down.
·The people who remain will be like a stump that will sprout again [L The holy seed is its stump].”
