Isaiah 51:12-16

American Standard Version

¹² I, even I, am he that comforteth you: who art thou, that thou art afraid of man that shall die, and of the son of man that shall be made as grass; ¹³ and hast forgotten Jehovah thy Maker, that stretched forth the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth; and fearest continually all the day because of the fury of the oppressor, ^[a]when he maketh ready to destroy? and where is the fury of the oppressor? ^14 [b]The captive exile shall speedily be loosed; and he shall not die and go down into the pit, neither shall his bread fail. ¹⁵ For I am Jehovah thy God, who ^[c]stirreth up the sea, so that the waves thereof roar: Jehovah of hosts is his name. ¹⁶ And I have put my words in thy mouth, and have covered thee in the shadow of my hand, that I may plant the heavens, and lay the foundations of the earth, and say unto Zion, Thou art my people.
