Isaiah 51:12-16
12I, even I, am he that comfortethH5162 you: who art thou, that thou shouldest be afraidH3372 of a manH582 that shall dieH4191, and of the sonH1121 of manH120 which shall be madeH5414 as grassH2682;
13And forgettestH7911 YhwhH3068 thy makerH6213, that hath stretched forthH5186 the heavensH8064, and laid the foundationsH3245 of the earthH776; and hast fearedH6342 continuallyH8548 every dayH3117 becauseH6440 of the furyH2534 of the oppressorH6693, as ifH834 he were readyH3559 to destroyH7843? and where is the furyH2534 of the oppressorH6693?1
14The captive exileH6808 hastenethH4116 that he may be loosedH6605, and that he should not dieH4191 in the pitH7845, nor that his breadH3899 should failH2637.
15But I am YhwhH3068 thy GodH430, that dividedH7280 the seaH3220, whose wavesH1530 roaredH1993: YhwhH3068 of ArmiesH6635 is his nameH8034.
16And I have putH7760 my wordsH1697 in thy mouthH6310, and I have coveredH3680 thee in the shadowH6738 of mine handH3027, that I may plantH5193 the heavensH8064, and lay the foundationsH3245 of the earthH776, and sayH559 unto ZionH6726, Thou art my peopleH5971.
