Thus saith the Lord ... Join "saith ... concerning the house of Jacob."

Redeemed - out of Ur, a land of idolaters (Joshua 24:3). Not now - after the moral revolution described, Isaiah 29:17, the children of Jacob shall no longer give cause to their forefathers to blush for them.

Neither ... wax pale - with shame and disappointment at the wicked degeneracy of his posterity, and fear as to their punishment.
