13 Yes, I am the Lord, your God.
    I will hold on to your right hand.
I say to you, “Do not be afraid. I will help you.”
14 Do not be afraid, you Israelites, descendants of Jacob.
You may seem unimportant, like a worm,
    but I myself will help you.’
That is what the Lord says.
    He is your Redeemer, the Holy God of Israel.
15 ‘Look at this! I will cause you to destroy your enemies,
    like a heavy weight that threshes grain.[a]
You will have new sharp metal points that are like teeth.
You will thresh the mountains
    and you will break them into pieces.
You will make the hills become like straw.
