Spicy Tamarind Catfish Curry

¹ “But now listen, O Jacob, my servant,
   Israel, whom I have chosen.
² This is what the LORD says—
   he who made you, who formed you in the womb,
   and who will help you:
Do not be afraid, O Jacob, my servant,
   Jeshurun, whom I have chosen.
³ For I will pour water on the thirsty land,
   and streams on the dry ground;
I will pour out my Spirit on your offspring,
   and my blessing on your descendants.
⁴ They will spring up like grass in a meadow,
   like poplar trees by flowing streams.
⁵ One will say, ‘I belong to the LORD’;
   another will call himself by the name of Jacob;
still another will write on his hand, ‘The LORD’s,’
   and will take the name Israel.Is 44
