Isaiah 51:11-13
New International Reader's Version
11 Those the Lord has saved will return to their land.
They will sing as they enter the city of Zion.
Joy that lasts forever will be like beautiful crowns on their heads.
They will be filled with gladness and joy.
Sorrow and sighing will be gone.
12 The Lord says to his people,
“I comfort you because of who I am.
Why are you afraid of mere human beings?
They are like grass that dries up.
13 How can you forget me? I made you.
I stretch out the heavens.
I lay the foundations of the earth.
Why are you terrified every day?
Is it because those who are angry with you are crushing you?
Is it because they are trying to destroy you?
Their anger can’t harm you anymore.
Isaiah 51:11-13

11 Those the Lord has rescued(A) will return.
They will enter Zion with singing;(B)
everlasting joy will crown their heads.
Gladness and joy(C) will overtake them,
and sorrow and sighing will flee away.(D)
12 “I, even I, am he who comforts(E) you.
Who are you that you fear(F) mere mortals,(G)
human beings who are but grass,(H)
13 that you forget(I) the Lord your Maker,(J)
who stretches out the heavens(K)
and who lays the foundations of the earth,
that you live in constant terror(L) every day
because of the wrath of the oppressor,
who is bent on destruction?
For where is the wrath of the oppressor?(M)
