Isaiah 41:6

3 He pursueth them, he passeth over in safety A path with his feet he entereth not.

4 Who hath wrought and done, Calling the generations from the first? I, Jehovah, the first, and with the last I [am] He.

5 Seen have isles and fear, ends of the earth tremble, They have drawn near, yea, they come.

6 Each his neighbour they help, And to his brother he saith, `Be strong.`

7 And strengthen doth an artizan the refiner, A smoother [with] a hammer, Him who is beating [on] an anvil, Saying, `For joining it [is] good,` And he strengtheneth it with nails, it is not moved!

8 -- And thou, O Israel, My servant, Jacob, whom I have chosen, Seed of Abraham, My lover,

9 Whom I have taken hold of, from the ends of the earth, And from its near places I have called thee, And I say to thee, My servant Thou [art], I have chosen thee, and not rejected thee.
