1 Yet now hear, O Jacob my slave and Israel, whom I have chosen:
2 Thus saith the Lord that made thee and formed thee from the womb, who will help thee; Fear not, O Jacob, my slave, and thou, Jesurun, {Heb. the upright one}, whom I have chosen.
3 For I will pour water upon him that is thirsty and floods upon the dry ground; I will pour my spirit upon thy seed and my blessing upon thine offspring:
4 And they shall spring up as among the grass, as willows by the water courses.
