Isaiah 51:8-10
Living Bible
8 For the moth shall destroy them like garments; the worm shall eat them like wool; but my justice and mercy shall last forever, and my salvation from generation to generation.
9 Awake, O Lord! Rise up and robe yourself with strength. Rouse yourself as in the days of old when you slew Egypt, the dragon[a] of the Nile. 10 Are you not the same today, the mighty God who dried up the sea, making a path right through it for your ransomed ones?

Isaiah 51:8-10
New International Version
8 For the moth will eat them up like a garment;(A)
the worm(B) will devour them like wool.
But my righteousness will last forever,(C)
my salvation through all generations.”
9 Awake, awake,(D) arm(E) of the Lord,
clothe yourself with strength!(F)
Awake, as in days gone by,
as in generations of old.(G)
Was it not you who cut Rahab(H) to pieces,
who pierced that monster(I) through?
10 Was it not you who dried up the sea,(J)
the waters of the great deep,(K)
who made a road in the depths of the sea(L)
so that the redeemed(M) might cross over?
