17 This is what the Lord says, He who is your (A)Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel:

“I am the Lord your God, who teaches you to benefit,
Who (B)leads you in the way you should go.
18 If only you had (C)paid attention to My commandments!
Then your [a](D)well-being would have been like a river,
And your (E)righteousness like the waves of the sea.
19 Your [b](F)descendants would have been like the sand,
And [c]your offspring like its grains;
(G)Their name would never be eliminated or destroyed from My presence.”
