10 Therefore, do not be afraid, Jacob my servant,
    and do not despair, O Israel, says the Lord.
Behold, I will rescue you from distant countries
    and your descendants from the land of their captivity.
Jacob will return and live in peace,
    tranquil, with no one to trouble him.
11 For I am with you, and I will save you,
    says the Lord.
I will totally destroy the nations
    among whom I have scattered you,
    but I will not make an end of you.
However, I will chastise you as you deserve;
    I will not allow you to go unpunished.
