Isaiah 51:1-2

New International Reader's Version

51 The Lord says, “Listen to me, you who want to do what is right.
    Pay attention, you who look to me.
Consider the rock you were cut out of.
    Think about the rock pit you were dug from.
² Consider Abraham. He is the father of your people.
    Think about Sarah. She is your mother.
When I chose Abraham, he did not have any children.
    But I blessed him and gave him many of them.
