13 ‘Today and every day, I am God.
If I hold you in my hand,
    nobody can take you away from my power.
When I do something,
    nobody can change it.’

14 The Lord is your Redeemer, Israel's Holy God. He says this:

‘I will send an army to attack Babylon,
    so that you, my people, will be safe.
I will cause all the Babylonians to run away.
They were proud of their great ships,
    but now they will use them to escape from their enemies.
15 I am the Lord, your Holy God.
I am the one who created Israel.
    I am your King.’

    in the ships in which they took pride.

    Israel’s Creator,(I) your King.(J)
