⁵ Remember the wonders^(I) he has done,
    his miracles, and the judgments he pronounced,^(J)
6 you his servants, the descendants of Abraham,^(K)
    his chosen^(L) ones, the children of Jacob.
⁷ He is the Lord our God;
    his judgments are in all the earth.

⁸ He remembers his covenant^(M) forever,
    the promise he made, for a thousand generations,
⁹ the covenant he made with Abraham,^(N)
    the oath he swore to Isaac.
¹⁰ He confirmed it^(O) to Jacob as a decree,
    to Israel as an everlasting covenant:^(P)
11 “To you I will give the land of Canaan^(Q)
    as the portion you will inherit.”^(R)

³⁷ He brought out Israel, laden with silver and gold,^(A)
    and from among their tribes no one faltered.
³⁸ Egypt was glad when they left,
    because dread of Israel^(B) had fallen on them.

³⁹ He spread out a cloud^(C) as a covering,
    and a fire to give light at night.^(D)
40 They asked,^(E) and he brought them quail;^(F)
    he fed them well with the bread of heaven.^(G)
41 He opened the rock,^(H) and water gushed out;
    it flowed like a river in the desert.

⁴² For he remembered his holy promise^(I)
    given to his servant Abraham.
⁴³ He brought out his people with rejoicing,^(J)
    his chosen ones with shouts of joy;
⁴⁴ he gave them the lands of the nations,^(K)
    and they fell heir to what others had toiled^(L) for—
⁴⁵ that they might keep his precepts
    and observe his laws.^(M)

Praise the Lord.^[a](N)

“‘Your wound^(A) is incurable,
    your injury beyond healing.^(B)
13 There is no one to plead your cause,^(C)
    no remedy for your sore,
    no healing^(D) for you.
¹⁴ All your allies^(E) have forgotten you;
    they care nothing for you.
I have struck you as an enemy^(F) would
    and punished you as would the cruel,^(G)
because your guilt is so great
    and your sins^(H) so many.
¹⁵ Why do you cry out over your wound,
    your pain that has no cure?^(I)
Because of your great guilt and many sins
    I have done these things to you.^(J)

¹⁶ “‘But all who devour^(K) you will be devoured;
    all your enemies will go into exile.^(L)
Those who plunder^(M) you will be plundered;
    all who make spoil of you I will despoil.
¹⁷ But I will restore you to health
    and heal^(N) your wounds,’
declares the Lord,
‘because you are called an outcast,^(O)
    Zion for whom no one cares.’^(P)

“‘I will restore the fortunes^(Q) of Jacob’s tents^(R)
    and have compassion^(S) on his dwellings;
the city will be rebuilt^(T) on her ruins,
    and the palace will stand in its proper place.
¹⁹ From them will come songs^(U) of thanksgiving^(V)
    and the sound of rejoicing.^(W)
I will add to their numbers,^(X)
    and they will not be decreased;
I will bring them honor,^(Y)
    and they will not be disdained.
²⁰ Their children^(Z) will be as in days of old,
    and their community will be established^(AA) before me;
    I will punish^(AB) all who oppress them.
²¹ Their leader^(AC) will be one of their own;
    their ruler will arise from among them.^(AD)
I will bring him near^(AE) and he will come close to me—
    for who is he who will devote himself
    to be close to me?’
declares the Lord.
²² “‘So you will be my people,^(AF)
    and I will be your God.^(AG)’”

“Lord, who has believed our message
    and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?”^[a](D)

⁴⁰ “He has blinded their eyes
    and hardened their hearts,
so they can neither see with their eyes,
    nor understand with their hearts,
    nor turn—and I would heal them.”^[b](E)
