​¹But now hear, O Jacob my servant,
Israel whom I have chosen!
²Thus says the LORD who made you,
who formed you in the womb and will help you:
Do not fear, O Jacob my servant,
Jeshurun whom I have chosen.
³For I will pour water on the thirsty land,
and streams on the dry ground;
I will pour my spirit upon your descendants,
and my blessing on your offspring.
⁴They shall spring up like a green tamarisk,
like willows by flowing streams.
