Isaiah 41:6-8

International Children’s Bible

⁶     The workers help each other.
    They say to each other, “Be strong!”
⁷ The man who carves wood encourages the man who works with gold.
    The workman who smooths the metal with a hammer encourages the man who shapes the metal.
This last workman says, “This metal work is good.”
    He nails the statue to a base so it can’t fall over.

⁸ The Lord says, “People of Israel, you are my servants.
    People of Jacob, I chose you.
You are from the family of my friend Abraham.
