19 And your offspring would have been like the sand,
    and the descendants of your body[a] like its grains.[b]
It would not be cut off,
    and its name would not be destroyed from my presence.”

    Send it forth[f] to the end of the earth;
        say, “Yahweh has redeemed his servant Jacob!”

    he made water flow from the rock for them,
and he split the rock,
    and the water gushed out.
