Isaiah 41:5-7

Expanded Bible

⁵ All you ·faraway places [or islands; or coastlands], look and be afraid;
    all you ·places far away on [ends of] the earth, shake with fear.
Come close and ·listen to [approach] me.
⁶     ·The workers help each other [A man helps his companion/neighbor]
    and say to ·each other [his brother], “Be strong!”
⁷ The ·craftsman [engraver; metal worker] encourages the goldsmith,
    and the workman who smooths the metal with a hammer encourages the one who ·shapes the metal [strikes the anvil].
He says, “This ·metal work [welding; soldering] is ·good [sound; well crafted].”
    He nails the statue to a base so it can’t fall over [^Cthe nations find false hope and baseless courage in their idols; vv. 28–29].
