5The isles have seen, and fear; the ends of the earth tremble; they draw near, and come.
6They help everyone his neighbor; and [every one] says to his brother, Be of good courage.
7So the carpenter encourages the goldsmith, [and] he who smoothes with the hammer him who strikes the anvil, saying of the soldering, It is good; and he fastens it with nails, that is should not be moved.
8But you, Israel, my servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, the seed of Abraham my friend,
9you whom I have taken hold of from the ends of the earth, and called from the corners of it, and said to you, You are my servant, I have chosen you and not cast you away;
10Don`t you be afraid, for I am with you; don`t be dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you; yes, I will help you; yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness.
11Behold, all those who are incensed against you shall be put to shame and confounded: those who strive with you shall be as nothing, and shall perish.
