I've been carrying you on my back

Isaiah 46:4

The Message (MSG)
 3-4"Listen to me, family of Jacob,
   everyone that's left of the family of Israel.
I've been carrying you on my back
   from the day you were born,
And I'll keep on carrying you when you're old.
   I'll be there, bearing you when you're old and gray.
I've done it and will keep on doing it,
   carrying you on my back, saving you. 


Deuteronomy 33:26-27

The Message (MSG)
 26-28 There is none like God, Jeshurun,
      riding to your rescue through the skies,
      his dignity haloed by clouds.
   The ancient God is home
      on a foundation of everlasting arms.
   He drove out the enemy before you
      and commanded, "Destroy!"
   Israel lived securely,
      the fountain of Jacob undisturbed
   In grain and wine country
      and, oh yes, his heavens drip dew. 



Psalm 41:11-13

The Message (MSG)


 11-12 Meanwhile, I'm sure you're on my side—
      no victory shouts yet from the enemy camp!
   You know me inside and out, you hold me together,
      you never fail to stand me tall in your presence
      so I can look you in the eye.

 13 Blessed is God, Israel's God,
      always, always, always.
      Yes. Yes. Yes. 

Isaiah 41:10

The Message (MSG)
 8-10"But you, Israel, are my servant.
   You're Jacob, my first choice,
   descendants of my good friend Abraham.
I pulled you in from all over the world,
   called you in from every dark corner of the earth,
Telling you, 'You're my servant, serving on my side.
   I've picked you. I haven't dropped you.'
Don't panic. I'm with you.
   There's no need to fear for I'm your God.
I'll give you strength. I'll help you.
   I'll hold you steady, keep a firm grip on you. 



Isaiah 40:31

The Message (MSG)
 27-31Why would you ever complain, O Jacob,
   or, whine, Israel, saying,
"God has lost track of me.
   He doesn't care what happens to me"?
Don't you know anything? Haven't you been listening?
God doesn't come and go. God lasts.
   He's Creator of all you can see or imagine.
He doesn't get tired out, doesn't pause to catch his breath.
   And he knows everything, inside and out.
He energizes those who get tired,
   gives fresh strength to dropouts.
For even young people tire and drop out,
   young folk in their prime stumble and fall.
But those who wait upon God get fresh strength.
   They spread their wings and soar like eagles,
They run and don't get tired,
   they walk and don't lag behind. 


Psalm 91: 1 f


   You who sit down in the High God's presence, spend the night in Shaddai's shadow,
   Say this: "God, you're my refuge.
      I trust in you and I'm safe!"
   That's right—he rescues you from hidden traps,
      shields you from deadly hazards.
   His huge outstretched arms protect you—
      under them you're perfectly safe;
      his arms fend off all harm.
   Fear nothing—not wild wolves in the night,
      not flying arrows in the day,
   Not disease that prowls through the darkness,
      not disaster that erupts at high noon.
   Even though others succumb all around,
      drop like flies right and left,
      no harm will even graze you.
   You'll stand untouched, watch it all from a distance,
      watch the wicked turn into corpses.
   Yes, because God's your refuge,
      the High God your very own home,
   Evil can't get close to you,
