Isaiah 63:8-10
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
8 He said: “They are indeed my people,
children who are not disloyal.”
So he became their savior
9 in their every affliction.
It was not an envoy or a messenger,
but his presence that saved them.
Because of his love and pity
the Lord redeemed them,
Lifting them up and carrying them
all the days of old.(A)
10 But they rebelled
and grieved his holy spirit;
So he turned to become their enemy,
and warred against them.(B)
