1 Now, listen, Jacob my servant, Israel whom I have chosen!| 2 This is what the LORD, the one who made you, says--the one who formed you in the womb and helps you: |Don't be afraid, my servant Jacob, Jeshurun, whom I have chosen! 3 For I will pour water on the parched ground and cause streams to flow on the dry land. I will pour my spirit on your offspring and my blessing on your children. 4 They will sprout up like a tree in the grass, like poplars beside channels of water. 5 One will say, 'I belong to the LORD,' and another will use the name 'Jacob.' One will write on his hand, 'The LORD's,' and use the name 'Israel.'| Isaiah 44:1-5, New English Translation. Copyright © 1996-2017 by Biblical Studies Press.
