Isaiah 51:9-16

91Awake, awake, put on strength, O arm of the Lord; Awake as in the 2days of old, the generations of long ago. 3Was it not You who cut Rahab in pieces, Who pierced the 4dragon?10Was it not You who 5dried up the sea, The waters of the great deep; Who made the depths of the sea a pathway For the 6redeemed to cross over?11So the 7ransomed of the Lord will return And come with joyful shouting to Zion, And 8everlasting joy will be on their heads. They will obtain gladness and joy, And 9sorrow and sighing will flee away.

12“I, even I, am He who 10comforts you. Who are you that you are afraid of 11man who dies And of the son of man who is made 12like grass,13That you have 13forgotten the Lord your Maker, Who 14stretched out the heavens And laid the foundations of the earth, That you 15fear continually all day long because of the fury of the oppressor, As he makes ready to destroy? But where is the fury of the 16oppressor? 14The 1718exile will soon be set free, and will not die in the dungeon, 19nor will his bread be lacking. 15For I am the Lord your God, who 20stirs up the sea and its waves roar (the Lord of hosts is His name). 16I have 21put My words in your mouth and have 22covered you with the shadow of My hand, to 2324establish the heavens, to found the earth, and to say to Zion, ‘You are My people.’”
