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.

Verse 8 is found in chapter 9 of Ezra. Ezra recalls history from the time of the ancestors to the present, describing a pattern of unfaithfulness, judgment, and mercy. Despite the discipline they experienced, God has granted a remnant and stability in Jerusalem. Postexilic restoration is interpreted as an act of undeserved grace.

Nun aber ist einen kleinen Augenblick Gnade von dem HERRN, unserm Gott, geschehen, daß uns noch Entronnene übriggelassen sind, daß er uns gebe einen Nagel an seiner heiligen Stätte, daß unser Gott unsre Augen erleuchte und gebe uns ein wenig Leben, da wir Knechte sind.
Y ahora como por un breve momento fue la misericordia de Jehová nuestro Dios, para hacer que nos quedase un resto libre, y para darnos estaca en el lugar de su santuario, a fin de alumbrar nuestros ojos nuestro Dios, y darnos una poca de vida en nuestra servidumbre.
Et cependant l'Eternel, notre Dieu, vient de nous faire grâce en nous laissant quelques réchappés et en nous accordant un abri dans son saint lieu, afin d'éclaircir nos yeux et de nous donner un peu de vie au milieu de notre servitude.
E pure ora, di subito quasi in un momento, ci è stata fatta grazie dall’Iddio nostro, per far che ci restasse alcun rimanente, e per darci un chiodo nel suo santo luogo; acciocchè l’Iddio nostro ci rischiarasse gli occhi, e ci desse un poco di ristoro nella nostra servitù.
E agora, por um pequeno momento, se manifestou a graça da parte do SENHOR, nosso Deus, para nos deixar alguns que escapem, e para dar-nos uma estaca no seu santo lugar; para nos iluminar os olhos, ó Deus nosso, e para nos dar um pouco de vida na nossa servidão.
現在耶和華-我們的上帝暫且向我們施恩,為我們留下一些殘存之民,使我們如釘子釘在他的聖所,讓我們的上帝光照我們的眼目,使我們在受轄制之中稍微復興。
