Isaiah 63:8-10

New Catholic Bible

⁸ For he said, “These are indeed my people,
    children who will not betray me,”
    and he became their Savior.
⁹ In all their difficulties
    it was no messenger or an angel
    but he himself who saved them.
In his love and his pity he redeemed them;
    he lifted them up and carried them
    through all the days of old.
¹⁰ However, they rebelled
    and grieved his Holy Spirit.
Therefore, he became their enemy
    and he himself fought against them.
