“All who rage against you
will surely be ashamed and disgraced;
those who oppose you
will be as nothing and perish.
12
Though you search for your enemies,
you will not find them.
Those who wage war against you
will be as nothing at all.
13
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.
14
Do not be afraid, O worm Jacob,
O little Israel,
for I myself will help you,” declares the Lord,
your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel.
15
“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.
16
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.
