I made you. I formed you when you were born as a nation.
    I will help you.
    So listen to what I am saying.
Family of Jacob, do not be afraid. You are my servant.
    People of Israel, I have chosen you.
I will pour out water on the thirsty land.
    I will make streams flow on the dry ground.
I will pour out my Spirit on your children.
    I will pour out my blessing on their children after them.
They will spring up like grass in a meadow.
    They will grow like poplar trees near flowing streams.
