But now, this is what the Lord says—he who created you: "Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you." Isaiah 43:1-3a (NIV)

What was going on when this was written

Written to people already in exile, not to people who avoided it. When you pass through the waters, when rather than if. What is promised is company in the water, not dry ground.
