Isaiah 41:5-10
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
5 The coastlands have seen and are afraid;
the ends of the earth tremble;
they have drawn near and come.(A)
6 Each one helps the other,
saying to one another, “Take courage!”(B)
7 The artisan encourages the goldsmith,
and the one who smooths with the hammer encourages the one who strikes the anvil,
saying of the soldering, “It is good,”
and they fasten it with nails so that it cannot be moved.(C)
8 But you, Israel, my servant,
Jacob, whom I have chosen,
the offspring of Abraham, my friend;(D)
9 you whom I took from the ends of the earth
and called from its farthest corners,
saying to you, “You are my servant;
I have chosen you and not cast you off”;(E)
10 do not fear, for I am with you;
do not be afraid, for I am your God;
I will strengthen you; I will help you;
I will uphold you with my victorious right hand.(F)
Isaiah 41:5-10
English Standard Version
5 (A)The coastlands have seen and are afraid;
the ends of the earth tremble;
they have drawn near and come.
6 Everyone helps his neighbor
and says to his brother, “Be strong!”
7 (B)The craftsman strengthens the goldsmith,
and he who smooths with the hammer him who strikes the anvil,
saying of the soldering, “It is good”;
and they strengthen it with nails (C)so that it cannot be moved.
8 But you, Israel, (D)my servant,
Jacob, (E)whom I have chosen,
the offspring of Abraham, (F)my friend;
9 you whom I took from the ends of the earth,
and called (G)from its farthest corners,
saying to you, “You are (H)my servant,
(I)I have chosen you and not cast you off”;
10 fear not, for I am with you;
be not dismayed, for I am your God;
I will strengthen you, I will help you,
I will uphold you with (J)my righteous right hand.
