Friday, June 6

“But now listen, Jacob, my servant,

    Israel, whom I have chosen.

2 

This is what the Lord says—

    he who made you, who formed you in the womb,

    and who will help you:

Do not be afraid, Jacob, my servant,

    Jeshurun,[a] whom I have chosen.

3 

For I will pour water on the thirsty land,

    and streams on the dry ground;

I will pour out my Spirit on your offspring,

    and my blessing on your descendants.

4 

They will spring up like grass in a meadow,

    like poplar trees by flowing streams.
