ESVEnglish Standard Version

But you, Israel, my servant,

Jacob, whom I have chosen,

the offspring of Abraham, my friend;

you whom I took from the ends of the earth,

and called from its farthest corners,

saying to you, “You are my servant,

I have chosen you and not cast you off”;

fear not, for I am with you;

be not dismayed, for I am your God;

I will strengthen you, I will help you,

I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

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.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

But you, Israel, my servant,

Jacob, whom I have chosen,

descendant of Abraham, my friend—

I brought you from the ends of the earth

and called you from its farthest corners.

I said to you: You are my servant;

I have chosen you; I haven’t rejected you.

Do not fear, for I am with you;

do not be afraid, for I am your God.

I will strengthen you; I will help you;

I will hold on to you with my righteous right hand.

Be sure that all who are enraged against you

will be ashamed and disgraced;

those who contend with you

will become as nothing and will perish.

You will look for those who contend with you,

but you will not find them.

Those who war against you

will become absolutely nothing.

For I am the Lord your God,

who holds your right hand,

who says to you, “Do not fear,

I will help you.

Do not fear, you worm Jacob,

you men of Israel.

I will help you”—

this is the Lord’s declaration.

Your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel.

“But as for you, Israel my servant,

Jacob my chosen one,

descended from Abraham my friend,

I have called you back from the ends of the earth,

saying, ‘You are my servant.’

For I have chosen you

and will not throw you away.

Don’t be afraid, for I am with you.

Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God.

I will strengthen you and help you.

I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.

“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.’

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

But you, Israel, my servant, Jacob, whom I have chosen,

you, the offspring of Abraham my friend,

you whom I grasped from the ends of the earth

and called from its remotest parts

and told, “You are my servant;

I have chosen you and I have not rejected you.”

You must not fear, for I am with you;

you must not be afraid, for I am your God.

I will strengthen you, indeed I will help you,

indeed I will take hold of you with the right hand of my salvation.

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.

KJV 1900King James Version

But thou, Israel, art my servant,

Jacob whom I have chosen,

The seed of Abraham my friend.

Thou whom I have taken from the ends of the earth,

And called thee from the chief men thereof,

And said unto thee, Thou art my servant;

I have chosen thee, and not cast thee away.

Fear thou not; for I am with thee:

Be not dismayed; for I am thy God:

I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee;

Yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

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.
