Isaiah 63:8-10

Common English Bible

⁸ God said, “Truly, they are my people,
    children who won’t do what is wrong.”
    God became their savior.
⁹ During all their distress, God also was distressed,
    so a messenger who served him saved them.
In love and mercy God redeemed them,
    lifting and carrying them throughout earlier times.
¹⁰ But they rebelled,
    and made God’s holy spirit terribly sad,
    so that he turned into their enemy—
    he fought against them!
