Isaiah 43:2-4
The Voice
2 When you face stormy seas I will be there with you with endurance and calm;
you will not be engulfed in raging rivers.
If it seems like you’re walking through fire with flames licking at your limbs,
keep going; you won’t be burned.
3 Because I, the Eternal One, am your God.
I am the Holy One of Israel, and I will save you.
I have traded in nations to win you back,
Egypt, Cush, and Seba, in exchange for your freedom.
4 Because you are special to Me and I love you,
I gladly give up other peoples in exchange for you;
They are trivial by comparison to your weighty significance.
Isaiah 43:2-4
New International Version
Isaiah 43:2-4
New International Version
2 When you pass through the waters,(A)
I will be with you;(B)
and when you pass through the rivers,
they will not sweep over you.
When you walk through the fire,(C)
you will not be burned;
the flames will not set you ablaze.(D)
3 For I am the Lord your God,(E)
the Holy One(F) of Israel, your Savior;(G)
I give Egypt(H) for your ransom,
Cush[a](I) and Seba(J) in your stead.(K)
4 Since you are precious and honored(L) in my sight,
and because I love(M) you,
I will give people in exchange for you,
nations in exchange for your life.
