Isaiah 41:13-16

Fear Not, For I Am with You

13 For I, the Lord your God,
hold your right hand;
it is I who say to you, "Fear not,
I am the one who helps you."

14 Fear not, you g worm Jacob,
you men of Israel!
I am the one who helps you, declares the Lord;
your h Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel.
15 i Behold, I make of you a threshing sledge,
new, sharp, and having teeth;
you shall thresh j the mountains and crush them,
and you shall make the hills like chaff;
16 k you shall winnow them, and l the wind shall carry them away,
and the tempest shall scatter them.
m And you shall rejoice in the Lord;
in the Holy One of Israel you shall glory.
