Isaiah 51:12-14

The Voice

¹² Eternal One: I am the One who comforts you and gives you peace.
        So why are you afraid of human beings?
    The children of men are only grass; they’ll wither and die.

¹³     Have you forgotten Me, the One who made you and the whole world,
        who stretched out the skies and made sure the earth’s foundations?
    Yet you constantly worry about others—how they hate and might harm you.
        But their anger counts for nothing.
¹⁴     In an instant, those who cower in fear and trepidation will be free to go in confidence;
        they won’t die in chains or suffer from hunger.
