Beginilah firman TUHAN: Sesungguhnya, seperti langit di atas tidak terukur dan dasar-dasar bumi di bawah tidak terselidiki, demikianlah juga Aku tidak akan menolak segala keturunan Israel, karena segala apa yang dilakukan mereka, demikianlah firman TUHAN.
Demikianlah firman Tuhan: Jikalau kiranya segala petala langit di atas dapat diukur, dan segala alas bumi di bawahpun dapat diduga, baharu Aku membuang segenap benih Israel karena sebab segala perbuatannya, demikianlah firman Tuhan.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Thus saith the Lord, if heaven above can be measured,.... Either the space between the highest heavens and the earth; or the extent of the heavens, from one end of them to the other, which cannot be done by man; so the Targum,
"as it is impossible that man should know the measure of the heavens above;''
otherwise it is measured by the Lord, for he hath "meted out heaven with a span", Isaiah 40:12;
and the foundations of the earth searched out beneath: so as to be known what they are, or on what they are fastened, since the earth is hung upon nothing, Job 38:6;
I will also cast off all the seed of Israel for all that they have done, saith the Lord; as the former cannot be, so neither the latter; when there was a very great rejection of the Jews for their disbelief of the Messiah, they were not all cast off; the Apostle Paul was an instance to the contrary, and so were others: "the remnant according to the election of grace"; and there is a time coming when all Israel shall be saved, Romans 11:5; nor shall any of the spiritual Israel be cast off by him, or cast away from him, so as to perish; the Israel, whom God foreknew, is chosen, redeemed, and whom he calls by his grace; no, not for all the sins and transgressions they have been guilty of, however they may deserve it. The reasons are, because of his unchangeable love to them; his unalterable covenant with them; the satisfaction his son has made for them; and the free and full pardon of their sins, which he has granted to them.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
All the seed - Unworthy members of Israel may be cast away, but the race shall never entirely cease to exist.
