54 He has o helped p his servant Israel,
q in remembrance of his mercy,
8 But you, Israel, y my servant,
Jacob, z whom I have chosen,
the offspring of Abraham, a my friend;
9 you whom I took from the ends of the earth,
and called b from its farthest corners,
saying to you, “You are y my servant,
z I have chosen you and not cast you off”;
16 For surely it is not angels that he helps, but he m helps the offspring of Abraham.
