Isaiah 43:7

Even every one that is called by my name: They are called by my name; I own them for my people and children; and therefore what kindness or cruelty you exercise to them I take it as done to myself. So it is an argument to move those people to let their captives go; or it is an argument to confirm the faith of God's people, that God would deliver them, because they are his own. I have created him for my glory; and therefore I will glorify my power, and goodness, and faithfulness in delivering them. I have made him; I have not only created them out of nothing, as I did all other people, but I have also formed and made them my peculiar people.
