12 You will look for those who contend with you,
but you will not find them.
Those who war against you
will become absolutely nothing.
13 For I, Yahweh your God,(A)
hold your right hand
and say to you: Do not fear,
I will help you.
14 Do not fear, you worm Jacob,(B)
you men[a] of Israel:
I will help you—
this is the Lord’s declaration.
Your Redeemer(C) is the Holy One of Israel.(D)
