Wouldn’t you be angry with us until you had consumed us, so that there would be no remnant, nor any to escape?Yahweh, the God of Israel, you are righteous; for we are left a remnant that has escaped, as it is today. Behold, we are before you in our guiltiness; for no one can stand before you because of this.”
