Context of Isaiah 41:11

9I led you back from the ends of the earth. I called you to come from places far away. I have said to you, “You are my servant. I have chosen you. I have not thrown you away. 10I am with you, so do not be afraid. I am your God, so do not be upset. I will make you strong and I will help you. My powerful right hand will keep you safe.” Listen to this! Everyone who has been angry with you will now become completely ashamed. Those who have attacked you will disappear and die. 12Even if you look for your enemies, you will not find them. They will all disappear! 13Yes, I am the Lord, your God. I will hold on to your right hand. I say to you, “Do not be afraid. I will help you.”
