Isa. 44. 3, 4, 5. For I will pour water on him that is thirsty, and floods upon the dry ground: I will pour my Spirit on thy seed, and my Blessing upon thine Offspring, and they shall spring as among the grass, as willows by the water-courses. One shall say, I am the Lords, and another shall call himself by the name of Jacob; and another shall Subscribe with his hand unto the Lord, and surname himself by the name of Israel.
