Isaiah 51:7-16

7Listen to Me, you who know justice, a people with My Torah in their heart: Do not fear the taunt of men, nor be dismayed at their insults.

8For the moth will eat them like a garment, and the worm will eat them like wool. But My righteousness will be forever and My salvation for all generations.”

9Awake, awake, put on strength, O arm of Adonai, awake, as in days of old, the generations of long ago. Was it not You who cut Rahab in pieces, who pierced the dragon?

10Was it not You who dried up the sea, the waters of the great deep, who made the depths of the sea a path for the redeemed to pass over?

11Now the ransomed of Adonai will return, and come to Zion with singing. Everlasting joy will be upon their heads. They will obtain gladness and joy, and sorrow and sighing will flee away.

12“I, I am the One who comforts you. Who are you that you should fear man, who dies, or a son of man, who is given up like grass?”

13But you forgot Adonai your Maker, who stretched out the heavens and laid the foundations of the earth. Are you in constant dread all day because of the fury of the oppressor as he makes ready to destroy? But where is the fury of the oppressor?

14Soon one bowed down will be released. He will not die and go to the Pit, nor will his bread be lacking.

15“For I am Adonai your God, who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar—Adonai-Tzva’ot is His Name.

16I have put My words in your mouth, and covered you with the shadow of My hand— I who set the heavens in place, who laid the foundations of the earth, and say to Zion, ‘You are My people.’”
