Isaiah 41:8–14
8 But thou, qIsrael, art rmy servant,
Jacob rrwhom I have chosen,
The seed of sAbraham my friend.
9 Thou whom I have taken from the ends of the earth,
And called thee from tthe chief men thereof,
And said unto thee, rThou art my servant;
I rrhave chosen thee, and not cast thee away.
10 uFear thou not; vfor I am with thee:
wBe not dismayed; for I am thy God:
vI will strengthen thee; yea, uI will help thee;
Yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.
11 Behold, all xthey that were incensed against thee shall be xashamed and confounded:
yThey shall be as nothing; and †they that strive with thee shall perish.
12 Thou shalt seek them, and shalt not find them, even †them that contended with thee:
†They that war against thee shall be zas nothing, and zas a thing of nought.
13 For I the Lord thy God zzwill hold thy right hand,
Saying unto thee, uFear not; uI will help thee.
14 uFear not, athou worm Jacob, and ye ||men of Israel;
aI will help thee, saith the Lord,
