Isaiah 51:12-16

12“I, even I, am He who 1comforts you. Who are you that you are afraid of 2man who dies And of the son of man who is made 3like grass,13That you have 4forgotten the Lord your Maker, Who 5stretched out the heavens And laid the foundations of the earth, That you 6fear continually all day long because of the fury of the oppressor, As he makes ready to destroy? But where is the fury of the 7oppressor? 14The 89exile will soon be set free, and will not die in the dungeon, 10nor will his bread be lacking. 15For I am the Lord your God, who 11stirs up the sea and its waves roar (the Lord of hosts is His name). 16I have 12put My words in your mouth and have 13covered you with the shadow of My hand, to 1415establish the heavens, to found the earth, and to say to Zion, ‘You are My people.’”
