Isaiah 51:12–16

12  I, even I, am phe that comforteth you:

ppWho art thou, that thou shouldest qbe afraid of a man that shall die,

And of the son of man which shall be made ras grass;

13  ppAnd sforgettest the Lord tthy maker,

uThat hath stretched forth the heavens, and vlaid the foundations of the earth;

And hast feared continually every day because of the fury of wthe oppressor,

As if he ||were ready to destroy?

And xwhere is the fury of the oppressor?

14  yThe captive exile hasteneth that he may be loosed,

And zthat he should not die ain the pit,

Nor that his bread should fail.

15  But I am the Lord thy God,

bThat cdivided the sea, whose waves roared:

bThe Lord of hosts is his name.

16  And dI have put my words in thy mouth,

And eI have covered thee in the shadow of mine hand,

That I may plant the heavens, and flay the foundations of the earth,

And say unto Zion, gThou art my people.
