1 But now thus says the Lord,
^ahe who created you, O Jacob,
he who formed you, O Israel:
^b“Fear not, for I have redeemed you;
^cI have called you by name, you are mine.
2 ^dWhen you pass through the waters, I will be with you;
and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you;
^ewhen you walk through fire ^fyou shall not be burned,
and the flame shall not consume you.

3 that no one be moved by these afflictions. For you yourselves know that ^kwe are destined for this. 4 For when we were with you, we kept telling you beforehand that we were to suffer affliction, ^ljust as it has come to pass, and just as you know.
