Isaiah 63:8-10

New International Version - UK

⁸ He said, ‘Surely they are my people,
    children who will be true to me’;
    and so he became their Saviour.
⁹ In all their distress he too was distressed,
    and the angel of his presence saved them.^[a]
In his love and mercy he redeemed them;
    he lifted them up and carried them
    all the days of old.
¹⁰ Yet they rebelled
    and grieved his Holy Spirit.
So he turned and became their enemy
    and he himself fought against them.
