27 “But as for you, Jacob My servant, (A)do not fear,
Nor be dismayed, Israel!
For, see, I am going to (B)save you from far away,
And your descendants from the land of their captivity;
And Jacob will return and be (C)undisturbed
And secure, with no one making him afraid.
28 Jacob My servant, do not fear,” declares the Lord,
“For (D)I am with you.
For I will make a complete destruction of all the nations
Where I have driven you,
Yet I will (E)not make a complete destruction of you;
But I will (F)correct you properly
And by no means leave you unpunished.”

Reassurance for Israel

27 But you, my servant Jacob, do not be afraid,(A)
and do not be discouraged, Israel,
for without fail I will save you from far away,
and your descendants from the land of their captivity!
Jacob will return and have calm and quiet
with no one to frighten him.
28 And you, my servant Jacob, do not be afraid—
this is the Lord’s declaration—
for I will be with you.(B)
I will bring destruction on all the nations
where I have banished you,
but I will not bring destruction on you.
I will discipline you with justice,
and I will by no means leave you unpunished.(C)

    do not be dismayed, Israel.
I will surely save you out of a distant place,
    your descendants from the land of their exile.(D)
Jacob will again have peace and security,
    and no one will make him afraid.
28 Do not be afraid, Jacob my servant,
    for I am with you,”(E) declares the Lord.
“Though I completely destroy(F) all the nations
    among which I scatter you,
    I will not completely destroy you.
I will discipline you but only in due measure;
    I will not let you go entirely unpunished.”
