²¹ Remember these things, O Jacob,
    and Israel, for you are my servant;
I formed you, you are my servant;
    O Israel, do not forget me.^[a](A)

44 But now hear, O Jacob my servant,
    Israel whom I have chosen!^(A)
2 Thus says the Lord who made you,
    who formed you in the womb and will help you:
Do not fear, O Jacob my servant,
    Jeshurun whom I have chosen.^(B)

¹⁵ I am the Lord, your Holy One,
    the Creator of Israel, your King.

⁹ Though I scattered them among the nations,
    yet in far countries they shall remember me,
    and they shall rear their children and return.^(A)

¹⁵ Can a woman forget her nursing child
    or show no compassion for the child of her womb?
Even these might forget,
    yet I will not forget you.^(A)
16 See, I have inscribed you on the palms of my hands;
    your walls are continually before me.^(B)

⁷ everyone who is called by my name,
    whom I created for my glory,
    whom I formed and made.”^(A)

43 But now thus says the Lord,
    he who created you, O Jacob,
    he who formed you, O Israel:
Do not fear, for I have redeemed you;
    I have called you by name; you are mine.^(A)
