9
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 .
10
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.
11
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 .
12
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.
13
For I the
LORD thy
God will
hold thy right
hand, saying unto thee,
Fear not; I will
help thee.
14
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.
15
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.
16
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.
17
When the
poor and
needy seek water, and there is none, and their
tongue faileth for
thirst, I the
LORD will
hear them, I the
God of
Israel will not
forsake them.
19
I will
plant in the
wilderness the
cedar, the shittah
tree, and the
myrtle, and the
oil tree; I will
set in the
desert the fir
tree, and the
pine, and the box
tree together:
