Context of Isaiah 41:11

9I took hold of you from the ends of the earth, and called from its uttermost parts, and said to you, ‘You are My servant— I have chosen you, not rejected you. 10Fear not, for I am with you, be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Surely I will help you. I will uphold you with My righteous right hand. Behold, all who were angry at you will be ashamed and disgraced. Those who quarrel with you will be as nothing and perish. 12Though you will look for those who contended with you, you will not find them. Those who warred against you will be as nothing at all. 13For I am Adonai your God who upholds your right hand, who says to you, “Fear not, I will help you.”
