96. Three. Thus said Jehovah thy Creator, O Jacob, and thy Former, O Israel: Fear not, for I have redeemed thee, and I have called thee by thy name; thou art Mine (Isa. 4:1). I am Jehovah thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Savior (Isa. 43:3). I, I am Jehovah; and besides Me there is no Savior (Isa. 43:11). Thus said Jehovah, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel (Isa. 43:14). I Jehovah am your Holy One, the Creator of Israel, your King (Isa. 43:15). The people which I have formed for Myself: they shall set forth My praise (Isa. 43:21). Thus said Jehovah, the King of Israel and his Redeemer, Jehovah of Hosts; I am the First and I am the Last: and besides Me there is no God (Isa. 44:6). Break forth into singing, ye mountains; for Jehovah hath redeemed Jacob, and will glorify Himself in Israel. Thus said Jehovah thy Redeemer, and thy Former from the womb: I am Jehovah that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone, that spreadeth forth the earth by Myself (Isa. 44:23, 24). I will blot out as a cloud thy transgressions, and, as a cloud, thy sins; return unto Me; for I have redeemed thee (Isa. 44:22). Surely God is in thee, and there is none else. Verily Thou art a hidden God, O God of Israel, the Savior. Israel is saved by Jehovah with an everlasting salvation: ye shall not be touched by shame even to the eternities of eternity (Isa. 45:14, 15, 17). Am not I Jehovah ? and there is no God else beside Me; a just God and a Savior; there is none beside Me. Look unto Me that ye may be saved, all the ends of the earth, for I am God, and there is none else (Isa. 45:21, 22). As to our Redeemer, Jehovah of hosts is His name, the Holy One of Israel (Isa. 47:4). Thus said Jehovah thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am Jehovah thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee in the way that thou shouldest go. O that thou hadst hearkened to My precepts, for then thy peace would have been as a river, and thy justice as the waves of the sea (Isa. 48:17, 18).
