Isaiah 41:11-16

Common English Bible

¹¹ All who rage against you will be shamed and disgraced.
    Those who contend with you
    will be as nothing and will perish.
¹² You will look for your opponents,
    and won’t find them.
    Those who fight you will be of no account and will die.
¹³ I am the Lord your God,
    who grasps your strong hand,
    who says to you,
    Don’t fear; I will help you.
¹⁴ Don’t fear, worm of Jacob,
    people of Israel!
I will help you, says the Lord.
    The holy one of Israel is your redeemer.
¹⁵ Look, I’ve made you
    into a new threshing tool with sharp teeth.
You will thresh mountains and pulverize them;
    you will reduce hills to straw.
¹⁶ When you winnow them,
    the wind will carry them off;
    the tempest will scatter them.
You will rejoice in the Lord
    and take pride in the holy one of Israel.
