8 And thou, Israel my sevant, Jacob whom I have chosen; the seed of Abraham that loved me;

9 Thou on whom I have taken hold from the ends of the earth, and called thee from the corners thereof; and said to thee, Thou art my servant; I have chosen thee, and not rejected thee.

13 For I, the LORD thy Gid, do hold fast thy right hadn; he that saith to thee, Fear not, I have helped thee.
