^16 (A)Doubtless You are our Father,
Though Abraham ^(B)was ignorant of us,
And Israel does not acknowledge us.
You, O Lord, are our Father;
Our Redeemer from Everlasting is Your name.

^9 (A)They shall come with weeping,
And with supplications I will lead them.
I will cause them to walk ^(B)by the rivers of waters,
In a straight way in which they shall not stumble;
For I am a Father to Israel,
And Ephraim is My ^(C)firstborn.
