Ezra 9:8 KJV
And now for a little space grace hath
been shewed from the LORD our God,
to leave us a remnant to escape, and
to give us a nail in his holy place, that
our God may lighten our eyes, and give
us a little reviving in our bondage.
There are 18 Hebrew words listed in Strongs
for Ezra 9:8. I liked the phrase, 'little space
grace' and it was unique in the KJV.
