And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you.
When you cwalk through the fire, you shall not be burned,
Nor shall the flame scorch you.
The Holy One of Israel, your Savior;
aI gave Egypt for your ransom,
Ethiopia and Seba in your place.
You have been honored,
And I have aloved you;
Therefore I will give men for you,
And people for your life.
I will bring your descendants from the east,
And bgather you from the west;
And to the south, ‘Do not keep them back!’
Bring My sons from afar,
And My daughters from the ends of the earth—
| << Isaiah 43:3 | Isaiah 43:5 >> |
