Isaiah 51:7-16
7Listen to Me, you who know what is right, you people with My law in your hearts: Do not fear the scorn of men; do not be broken by their insults.8For the moth will devour them like a garment, and the worm will eat them like wool. But My righteousness will last forever, My salvation through all generations.”
9Awake, awake,put on strength, O arm of the LORD.Wake up as in days past,as in generations of old.Was it not You who cut Rahab to pieces,who pierced through the dragon?10Was it not You who dried up the sea,the waters of the great deep,who made a road in the depths of the seafor the redeemed to cross over?11So the redeemed of the LORD will returnand enter Zion with singing,crowned with everlasting joy.Gladness and joy will overtake them,and sorrow and sighing will flee.
12“I, even I, am He who comforts you.Why should you be afraid of mortal man,of a son of man who withers like grass?13But you have forgotten the LORD, your Maker,who stretched out the heavensand laid the foundations of the earth.You live in terror all day longbecause of the fury of the oppressorwho is bent on destruction.But where is the fury of the oppressor?14The captive will soon be freed;he will not die in the dungeon,and his bread will not be lacking.15For I am the LORD your Godwho stirs up the sea so that its waves roar—the LORD of Hosts is His name.16I have put My words in your mouth,and covered you with the shadow of My hand,to establish1 the heavens, to found the earth,and to say to Zion, ‘You are My people.’”
