1 Descendants of Jacob,I, the Lord, created youand formed your nation.Israel, don't be afraid.I have rescued you.I have called you by name;now you belong to me.
2 When you cross deep rivers,I will be with you,and you won't drown.When you walk through fire,you won't be burntor scorched by the flames.
3 I am the Lord, your God,the Holy One of Israel,the God who saves you.I gave up Egypt, Ethiopia,and the region of Sebain exchange for you.
4 To me, you are very dear,and I love you.That's why I gave up nationsand people to rescue you.
5 Don't be afraid! I am with you.From both east and westI will bring you together.
