The Lord takes care of his people

21 The Lord says:

‘Jacob's descendants, remember these things,
    because you, Israel, are my servant.
I created you to be my servant.
    Israel, I will not forget you.
22 I have removed the guilt of your sins,
    like the wind blows away a cloud.
When you turned against me,
    I have quickly forgiven you.
Return to me now,
    because I have rescued you.’
