Isaiah 41:10-16

10 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 ^cmy righteous right hand.
11 ^dBehold, 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.
12 ^eYou shall seek those who contend with you,
but you shall not find them;
^fthose who war against you
shall be as nothing at all.
13 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.”
14 Fear not, you ^gworm Jacob,
you men of Israel!
I am the one who helps you, declares the Lord;
your ^hRedeemer is the Holy One of Israel.
15 ⁱBehold, I make of you a threshing sledge,
new, sharp, and having teeth;
you shall thresh ^jthe mountains and crush them,
and you shall make the hills like chaff;
16 ^kyou shall winnow them, and ^lthe wind shall carry them away,
and the tempest shall scatter them.
^mAnd you shall rejoice in the Lord;
in the Holy One of Israel you shall glory.

For ^wwhen I am weak, then I am strong.
