Riveduta Bibbia
Ma lascerò di loro alcuni pochi uomini scampati dalla spada, dalla fame e dalla peste, affinché narrino tutte le loro abominazioni fra le nazioni dove saran giunti; e conosceranno che io sono l’Eterno".
Giovanni Diodati Bibbia
Ma lascerò d’infra loro alcuni pochi uomini, restati della spada, della fame, e della pestilenza; acciocchè raccontino tutte le loro abbominazioni, fra le nazioni dove perverranno; e conosceranno che io sono il Signore.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

But I will leave a few men of them,.... Or, "men of number" x; of a small number, such as are easily reckoned up; which will require no great skill in numbers, nor trouble to count them:

from the sword, from the famine, and from the pestilence; during the siege of Jerusalem, and at the breaking of it up; but then they should be carried captive into other countries:

that they may declare all their abominations among the Heathen whither they come; who, observing their calamities, and distresses, would read their sin in their punishment; and conclude they must have been guilty of great enormities, who were punished in such a manner; so that their punishment was a visible and standing declaration to the Heathens of the abominable sins they had been guilty of: or else the end of reserving a few of them from the above capital judgments was, that they being brought to a sense of their sins by their afflictions, might freely confess them, express their repentance for them, and justify God in his proceedings towards them:

and they shall know that I [am] the Lord; not the Heathens, among whom this declaration would be made; but the Jews, brought under a conviction of their sin, and of the justice of God in his dealings with them.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Few - literally, as in the margin; so few, that they can easily be counted Isaiah 10:19. The few who should escape destruction should make known to all among whom they should dwell how great had been the wickedness of the people, how just their punishment.
