Isaiah 51:11-16
11So the 1ransomed of the Lord will return And come with joyful shouting to Zion, And 2everlasting joy will be on their heads. They will obtain gladness and joy, And 3sorrow and sighing will flee away.
12“I, even I, am He who 4comforts you. Who are you that you are afraid of 5man who dies And of the son of man who is made 6like grass,13That you have 7forgotten the Lord your Maker, Who 8stretched out the heavens And laid the foundations of the earth, That you 9fear continually all day long because of the fury of the oppressor, As he makes ready to destroy? But where is the fury of the 10oppressor? 14The 1112exile will soon be set free, and will not die in the dungeon, 13nor will his bread be lacking. 15For I am the Lord your God, who 14stirs up the sea and its waves roar (the Lord of hosts is His name). 16I have 15put My words in your mouth and have 16covered you with the shadow of My hand, to 1718establish the heavens, to found the earth, and to say to Zion, ‘You are My people.’”
