12 You will look for them, but you will not find them—
those men who contend against you.
They will become absolutely nothing, less than nothing—
those men who battle against you.
13 For I am the Lord your God.
I am the one who is holding on to your right hand.

I myself am helping you, declares the Lord,
your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel.
