⁸ “But you, Israel, my servant,^(A)
    Jacob, whom I have chosen,^(B)
    you descendants of Abraham^(C) my friend,^(D)
9 I took you from the ends of the earth,^(E)
    from its farthest corners I called^(F) you.
I said, ‘You are my servant’;^(G)
    I have chosen^(H) you and have not rejected you.
¹⁰ So do not fear,^(I) for I am with you;^(J)
    do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen^(K) you and help^(L) you;
    I will uphold you^(M) with my righteous right hand.^(N)

¹⁷     no weapon forged against you will prevail,^(A)
    and you will refute^(B) every tongue that accuses you.
This is the heritage of the servants^(C) of the Lord,
    and this is their vindication^(D) from me,”
declares the Lord.
