11 Behold, (A)all those who are angered at you will be shamed and dishonored;
(B)Those who contend with you will be as nothing and will perish.
12 (C)You will seek those who quarrel with you, but will not find them,
Those who war with you will be as nothing and non-existent.
13 For I am Yahweh your God, (D)who [a]strongly takes hold of your right hand,
Who says to you, ‘(E)Do not fear, I will help you.’
14 Do not fear, you (F)worm Jacob, you men of Israel;
I will help you,” declares Yahweh, “[b]and (G)your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel.
15 Behold, I have made you a new, sharp threshing sledge with double edges;
(H)You will thresh the (I)mountains and pulverize them,
And will make the hills like chaff.
16 You will (J)winnow them, and the wind will carry them away,
And the storm will scatter them;
But you will (K)rejoice in Yahweh;
You will boast in the Holy One of Israel.

  2. Isaiah 41:14 Or even your Redeemer, the Holy One

11 Behold, all who are incensed against you
    shall be put to shame and confounded;
those who strive against you
    shall be as nothing and shall perish.
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.
13 For I, the Lord your God,
    hold your right hand;
it is I who say to you, “Fear not,
    I will help you.”

14 Fear not, you worm Jacob,
    you men of Israel!
I will help you, says the Lord;
    your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel.
15 Behold, I will make of you a threshing sledge,
    new, sharp, and having teeth;
you shall thresh the mountains and crush them,
    and you shall make the hills like chaff;
16 you shall winnow them and the wind shall carry them away,
    and the tempest shall scatter them.
And you shall rejoice in the Lord;
    in the Holy One of Israel you shall glory.
