Deuteronomy 33:28; Isaiah 48:1; Isaiah 51:1

28  So Israel lived in safety,

uJacob lived valone,1

in a land of grain and wine,

whose heavens drop down dew.


Israel Refined for God’s Glory

48  Hear this, O house of Jacob,

dwho are called by the name of Israel,

and ewho came from the waters of Judah,

fwho swear by the name of the Lord

and confess the God of Israel,

but not in truth or right.


The Lord’s Comfort for Zion

51  dListen to me, you who pursue righteousness,

you who seek the Lord:

look to the rock from which you were hewn,

and to the quarry from which you were dug.
