1. But now thus saith the Lord that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Do not fear, for I have redeemed thee, I have named thee; Thou art mine.
2. When thou dost pass through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee; when thou dost walk through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.
3. For I am the Lord thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Keeper; I gave Egypt for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee.
4. Because thou wast precious in my sight, thou wast worthy of honour, and I have loved thee.
5. Do not fear; for I am with thee: I will bring thy generation from the east and gather thee from the west;
6. I will say to the north wind, Give up, and to the south, Do not keep back; bring my sons from far and my daughters from the ends of the earth
7. even every one that is called by my name, for I have created them for my glory; I have formed them; yea, I have made them.
8. Bring forth the people that is blind that have eyes and the deaf that have ears.
