Isaiah

Isaiah 63:8–9

⁸For He said, “They are surely My people,

sons who will not be disloyal.”

So He became their Savior.

⁹In all their distress, He too was afflicted,

and the Angel of His Presence^b saved them.

In His love and compassion He redeemed them;

He lifted them up and carried them

all the days of old.
