Isaiah 51:12-15

English Standard Version

¹² “I, I am he ^(A)who comforts you;
    who are you that you are afraid of ^(B)man who dies,
    of the son of man who is made ^(C)like grass,
¹³ and have forgotten the Lord, your Maker,
    ^(D)who stretched out the heavens
    and ^(E)laid the foundations of the earth,
and you fear continually all the day
    because of the wrath of ^(F)the oppressor,
when he sets himself to destroy?
    And where is the wrath of ^(G)the oppressor?
^14 (H)He who is bowed down shall speedily be released;
    he shall not die and go down ^(I)to the pit,
    neither shall his bread be lacking.
¹⁵ I am the Lord your God,
    ^(J)who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar—
    the Lord of hosts is his name.
