Isaiah 43:1-7 (ESV)

But now thus says the Lord, 

he who created you, O Jacob, 

he who formed you, O Israel: 

“Fear not, for I have redeemed you; 

I have called you by name, you are mine. 

When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; 

and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; 

when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, 

and the flame shall not consume you. 

For I am the Lord your God, 

the Holy One of Israel, your Savior. 

I give Egypt as your ransom, 

Cush and Seba in exchange for you. 

Because you are precious in my eyes, 

and honored, and I love you, 

I give men in return for you, 

peoples in exchange for your life. 

Fear not, for I am with you; 

I will bring your offspring from the east, 

and from the west I will gather you. 

I will say to the north, Give up, 

and to the south, Do not withhold; 

bring my sons from afar 

and my daughters from the end of the earth, 

everyone who is called by my name, 

whom I created for my glory, 

whom I formed and made.” 

 The Holy Bible: English Standard Version (Wheaton, IL: Crossway Bibles, 2016), Is 43:1–7.
