Isaiah 41:5-16

5The islands see and fear; the ends of the earth tremble. They approach and come forward.6Each one helps the other and says to his brother, “Be strong!”7The craftsman encourages the goldsmith, and he who wields the hammer cheers him who strikes the anvil, saying of the welding, “It is good.” He nails it down so it will not be toppled.

8“But you, O Israel, My servant,Jacob, whom I have chosen,descendant of Abraham My friend—9I brought you from the ends of the earthand called you from its farthest corners.I said, ‘You are My servant.’I have chosen and not rejected you.10Do not fear, for I am with you;do not be afraid, for I am your God.I will strengthen you; I will surely help you;I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.
11Behold, all who rage against youwill be ashamed and disgraced;those who contend with youwill be reduced to nothing and will perish.12You will seek them but will not find them.Those who wage war against you will come to nothing.13For I am the LORD your God,who takes hold of your right handand tells you: Do not fear,I will help you.14Do not fear, O Jacob, you worm,O few men of Israel.I will help you,” declares the LORD.“Your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel.15Behold, I will make you into a threshing sledge,new and sharp, with many teeth.You will thresh the mountains and crush them,and reduce the hills to chaff.16You will winnow them, and a wind will carry them away;a gale will scatter them.But you will rejoice in the LORD;you will glory in the Holy One of Israel.
