Isaiah 44:2-4

New Century Version

² This is what the Lord says, who made you,
    who formed you in your mother’s body,
    who will help you:
“People of Jacob, my servants, don’t be afraid.
    Israel, I chose you.
³ I will pour out water for the thirsty land
    and make streams flow on dry land.
I will pour out my Spirit into your children
    and my blessing on your descendants.
⁴ Your children will grow like a tree in the grass,
    like poplar trees growing beside streams of water.
