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 the Lord your God (D)who 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 people of Israel;
I will help you,” declares the Lord, “and (G)your [a]Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel.
15 Behold, I turned you into a new, sharp threshing sledge with double edges;
(H)You will thresh the (I)mountains and pulverize them,
And 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 the Lord,
You will boast in the Holy One of Israel.

  1. Isaiah 41:14 Or Redeemer, the Holy One

11 All who rage against you will be shamed and disgraced.
    Those who contend with you
    will be as nothing and will perish.
12 You will look for your opponents,
    and won’t find them.
    Those who fight you will be of no account and will die.
13 I am the Lord your God,
    who grasps your strong hand,
    who says to you,
    Don’t fear; I will help you.
14 Don’t fear, worm of Jacob,
    people of Israel!
I will help you, says the Lord.
    The holy one of Israel is your redeemer.
15 Look, I’ve made you
    into a new threshing tool with sharp teeth.
You will thresh mountains and pulverize them;
    you will reduce hills to straw.
16 When you winnow them,
    the wind will carry them off;
    the tempest will scatter them.
You will rejoice in the Lord
    and take pride in the holy one of Israel.
