Behold, all who are incensed against you

shall be put to shame and confounded;

those who strive against you

shall be as nothing and shall perish.

You shall seek those who contend with you,

but you shall not find them;

those who war against you

shall be as nothing at all.

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.”

Fear not, you worm Jacob,

you men of Israel!

I am the one who helps you, declares the Lord;

your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel.

Behold, I make of you a threshing sledge,

new, sharp, and having teeth;

you shall thresh the mountains and crush them,

and you shall make the hills like chaff;

you shall winnow them, and the wind shall carry them away,

and the tempest shall scatter them.

And you shall rejoice in the Lord;

in the Holy One of Israel you shall glory.

Though you search for your enemies,

you will not find them.

Those who wage war against you

will be as nothing at all.

For I am the Lord your God

who takes hold of your right hand

and says to you, Do not fear;

I will help you.

Do not be afraid, you worm Jacob,

little Israel, do not fear,

for I myself will help you,” declares the Lord,

your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel.

“See, I will make you into a threshing sledge,

new and sharp, with many teeth.

You will thresh the mountains and crush them,

and reduce the hills to chaff.

You will winnow them, the wind will pick them up,

and a gale will blow them away.

But you will rejoice in the Lord

and glory in the Holy One of Israel.

“See, all your angry enemies lie there,

confused and humiliated.

Anyone who opposes you will die

and come to nothing.

You will look in vain

for those who tried to conquer you.

Those who attack you

will come to nothing.

For I hold you by your right hand—

I, the Lord your God.

And I say to you,

‘Don’t be afraid. I am here to help you.

Though you are a lowly worm, O Jacob,

don’t be afraid, people of Israel, for I will help you.

I am the Lord, your Redeemer.

I am the Holy One of Israel.’

You will be a new threshing instrument

with many sharp teeth.

You will tear your enemies apart,

making chaff of mountains.

You will toss them into the air,

and the wind will blow them all away;

a whirlwind will scatter them.

Then you will rejoice in the Lord.

You will glory in the Holy One of Israel.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

Look! All those who are angry with you shall be ashamed and humiliated;

your opponents shall be like nothing and shall become lost.

You shall seek them,

but you shall not find them;

your opponents shall be like nothing,

and the men of your war like nothing.

For I, Yahweh your God, am grasping your right hand;

it is I who say to you,

“You must not fear;

I myself, I will help you.

You must not fear, O worm of Jacob;

people of Israel,

I myself, I will help you,” declares Yahweh,

“and your redeemer is the holy one of Israel.

Look! I will make you into a new sharp threshing sledge,

with sharp edges.

You shall thresh and crush the mountains,

and you shall make the hills like chaff.

You shall winnow them and the wind shall carry them,

and the tempest shall scatter them.

And you yourself shall rejoice in Yahweh;

you shall boast in the holy one of Israel.

KJV 1900King James Version

Behold, all they that were incensed against thee shall be ashamed and confounded:

They shall be as nothing; and they that strive with thee shall perish.

Thou shalt seek them, and shalt not find them, even them that contended with thee:

They that war against thee shall be as nothing, and as a thing of nought.

For I the Lord thy God will hold thy right hand,

Saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee.

Fear not, thou worm Jacob, and ye men of Israel;

I will help thee, saith the Lord,

And thy redeemer, the Holy One of Israel.

Behold, I will make thee a new sharp threshing instrument having teeth:

Thou shalt thresh the mountains, and beat them small,

And shalt make the hills as chaff.

Thou shalt fan them, and the wind shall carry them away,

And the whirlwind shall scatter them:

And thou shalt rejoice in the Lord,

And shalt glory in the Holy One of Israel.
