Psalms 89:38-46
But you have spurned and rejected him; you have become enraged with your anointed.You have repudiated the covenant with your servant; you have completely dishonored his crown.You have broken down all his walls; you have reduced his fortified cities to ruins.All who pass by plunder him; he has become an object of ridicule to his neighbors.You have lifted high the right hand of his foes; you have made all his enemies rejoice.You have also turned back his sharp sword and have not let him stand in battle.You have made his splendor cease and have overturned his throne.You have shortened the days of his youth; you have covered him with shame. SelahHow long, LORD? Will you hide forever? Will your anger keep burning like fire?

Romans 11:1-5
I ask, then, has God rejected his people? Absolutely not! For I too am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, from the tribe of Benjamin.God has not rejected his people whom he foreknew. Or don’t you know what the Scripture says in the passage about Elijah— how he pleads with God against Israel?Lord, they have killed your prophets and torn down your altars. I am the only one left, and they are trying to take my life!But what was God’s answer to him? I have left seven thousand for myself who have not bowed down to Baal.In the same way, then, there is also at the present time a remnant chosen by grace.
