28
For ten shall be left out of a city; and two, out of the field, those who have hidden themselves in thick groves and clefts in the rocks.
29
Just as in an olive orchard three or four olives may be left on every tree,
30
or just as, when a vineyard is gathered, some clusters may be left by those who search carefully through the vineyard,
31
so in those days three or four shall be left by those who search their houses with the sword.
32
The earth shall be left desolate, and its fields shall be plowed up, and its roads and all its paths shall bring forth thorns, because no sheep will go along them.
