Isaiah 41:10-20

10Do not 1fear, for I am with you; Do not be afraid, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, 2I will also help you, I will also uphold you with My righteous 3right hand.’11Behold, 4all those who are angered at you will be shamed and dishonored; 5Those who contend with you will be as nothing and will perish.126You will seek those who quarrel with you, but will not find them, Those who war with you will be as nothing and non-existent.13For I am the Lord your God 7who takes hold of your right hand, Who says to you, ‘8Do not fear, I will help you.’14Do not fear, you 9worm Jacob, you people of Israel; I will help you,” declares the Lord, “and 10your 11Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel.15Behold, I turned you into a new, sharp threshing sledge with double edges; 12You will thresh the 13mountains and pulverize them, And make the hills like chaff.16You will 14winnow them, and the wind will carry them away, And the storm will scatter them; But you will 15rejoice in the Lord, You will boast in the Holy One of Israel.

17“The poor and needy are seeking 16water, but there is none, And their tongues are parched with thirst. I, the Lord, 17will answer them Myself; As the God of Israel I 18will not abandon them.18I will open 19rivers on the bare heights, And springs in the midst of the valleys; I will make 20the wilderness a pool of water, And the dry land fountains of water.19I will put the cedar in the wilderness, The acacia, the 21myrtle, and the olive tree; I will place the 22juniper in the desert, Together with the elm tree and the cypress,20So that 23they may see and recognize, And consider and gain insight as well, That the 24hand of the Lord has done this, And the Holy One of Israel has created it.
