1 Israel, the Lord who created you says,“Do not be afraid — I will save you.I have called you by name — you are mine.
2 When you pass through deep waters, I will be with you;your troubles will not overwhelm you.When you pass through fire, you will not be burnt;the hard trials that come will not hurt you.
3 For I am the Lord your God,the holy God of Israel, who saves you.I will give up Egypt to set you free;I will give up Ethiopia and Seba.
4 I will give up whole nations to save your life,because you are precious to meand because I love you and give you honour.
