Isaiah 51:12-14
New International Reader's Version
Isaiah 51:12-14
New International Reader's Version
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.
14 You prisoners who are so afraid will soon be set free.
You will not die in your prison cells.
You will not go without food.

Isaiah 51:12-14
New International Version
12 “I, even I, am he who comforts(A) you.
Who are you that you fear(B) mere mortals,(C)
human beings who are but grass,(D)
13 that you forget(E) the Lord your Maker,(F)
who stretches out the heavens(G)
and who lays the foundations of the earth,
that you live in constant terror(H) every day
because of the wrath of the oppressor,
who is bent on destruction?
For where is the wrath of the oppressor?(I)
14 The cowering prisoners will soon be set free;(J)
they will not die in their dungeon,
nor will they lack bread.(K)
