Isaiah 41:5-10
1599 Geneva Bible
5 The isles saw it, and did [a]fear, and the ends of the earth were abashed, drew near, and [b]came.
6 Every man helped his neighbor, and said to his brother, [c]Be strong.
7 So the workman comforted the founder, and he that smote with the hammer, him that smote by course, saying, It is ready for the soldering, and he fastened it with nails that it should not be moved.
8 ¶ But thou, Israel, art my [d]servant, and thou Jacob, whom I have chosen, the seed of Abraham my friend.
9 For I have taken thee from the ends of the earth, and called thee before the chief thereof, and said unto thee, Thou art my servant: I have chosen thee, and not cast thee away.
10 Fear thou not, for I am with thee: be not afraid, for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee, and help thee, and will sustain thee with the [e]right hand of my justice.
