A Message to Israel

27 “People of Jacob, my servants, don’t be afraid;
    don’t be frightened, Israel.
I will surely ·save [rescue] you from those faraway places
    and your ·children [L seed] from the lands where they are captives.
The people of Jacob will have peace and safety again,
    and no one will make them afraid.
28 People of Jacob, my servants, do not be afraid,
    because I am with you,” says the Lord.
“I will ·completely destroy the many different [L make an end of all the] nations
    where I ·scattered [drove] you.
    But I will not ·completely destroy [L make an end of] you.
I will ·punish [chastise; discipline] you ·fairly [with justice],
    but I will not let you escape your punishment.”

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.”
