44 Yet listen now, Jacob my servant,
    and Israel, whom I have chosen.
This is what Yahweh who made you,
    and formed you from the womb,
    who will help you says:
“Don’t be afraid, Jacob my servant;
    and you, Jeshurun, whom I have chosen.
For I will pour water on him who is thirsty,
    and streams on the dry ground.
I will pour my Spirit on your descendants,
    and my blessing on your offspring:
and they will spring up among the grass,
    as willows by the watercourses.
One will say, ‘I am Yahweh’s;’
    and another will be called by the name of Jacob;
    and another will write with his hand ‘to Yahweh,’
    and honor the name of Israel.”

Israel the Lord's Chosen

44 “But now hear, (A)O Jacob my servant,
    Israel whom I have chosen!
Thus says the Lord who made you,
    (B)who formed you from the womb and will help you:
(C)Fear not, O Jacob my servant,
    (D)Jeshurun whom I have chosen.
(E)For I will pour water on the thirsty land,
    and streams on the dry ground;
I will pour my Spirit upon your offspring,
    and my blessing on your descendants.
They shall spring up among the grass
    (F)like willows by flowing streams.
(G)This one will say, ‘I am the Lord's,’
    another will call on the name of Jacob,
and another will write on his hand, ‘The Lord's,’
    and name himself by the name of Israel.”
