And formed you from the womb, who will help you:
‘Fear not, O Jacob My servant;
And you, Jeshurun, whom I have chosen.

As for your nativity, (A)on the day you were born your navel cord was not cut, nor were you washed in water to cleanse you; you were not rubbed with salt nor wrapped in swaddling cloths. No eye pitied you, to do any of these things for you, to have compassion on you; but you were thrown out into the open field, when you yourself were [a]loathed on the day you were born.

“And when I passed by you and saw you struggling in your own blood, I said to you in your blood, ‘Live!’ Yes, I said to you in your blood, ‘Live!’ (B)I made you [b]thrive like a plant in the field; and you grew, matured, and became very beautiful. Your breasts were formed, your hair grew, but you were naked and bare.

“When I passed by you again and looked upon you, indeed your time was the time of love; (C)so I spread [c]My wing over you and covered your nakedness. Yes, I (D)swore an oath to you and entered into a (E)covenant with you, and (F)you became Mine,” says the Lord God.

“Say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “On the day when (A)I chose Israel and raised My hand in an oath to the descendants of the house of Jacob, and made Myself (B)known to them in the land of Egypt, I raised My hand in an oath to them, saying, (C)‘I am the Lord your God.’ On that day I raised My hand in an oath to them, (D)to bring them out of the land of Egypt into a land that I had searched out for them, (E)‘flowing with milk and honey,’ (F)the glory of all lands. Then I said to them, ‘Each of you, (G)throw away (H)the abominations which are before his eyes, and do not defile yourselves with (I)the idols of Egypt. I am the Lord your God.’ But they rebelled against Me and would not [a]obey Me. They did not all cast away the abominations which were before their eyes, nor did they forsake the idols of Egypt. Then I said, ‘I will (J)pour out My fury on them and fulfill My anger against them in the midst of the land of Egypt.’ (K)But I acted for My name’s sake, that it should not be profaned before the Gentiles among whom they were, in whose sight I had made Myself (L)known to them, to bring them out of the land of Egypt.

10 “Therefore I (M)made them go out of the land of Egypt and brought them into the wilderness. 11 (N)And I gave them My statutes and [b]showed them My judgments, (O)‘which, if a man does, he shall live by them.’ 12 Moreover I also gave them My (P)Sabbaths, to be a sign between them and Me, that they might know that I am the Lord who sanctifies them.
