Isaiah 54:14-17
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
14 In righteousness you shall be established;
you shall be far from oppression; indeed, you shall not fear;
and from terror; indeed, it shall not come near you.(A)
15 If anyone stirs up strife,
it is not from me;
whoever stirs up strife with you
shall fall because of you.(B)
16 See, it is I who have created the smith
who blows the fire of coals
and produces a weapon fit for its purpose;
I have also created the ravager to destroy.
17 No weapon that is fashioned against you shall prosper,
and you shall confute every tongue that rises against you in judgment.
This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord
and their vindication from me, says the Lord.(C)

shall be ashamed and disgraced;
those who strive against you
shall be as nothing and shall perish.(B)
12 You shall seek those who contend with you,
but you shall not find them;
those who war against you
shall be as nothing at all.(C)
13 For I, the Lord your God,
hold your right hand;
it is I who say to you, “Do not fear,
I will help you.”(D)
