14 Do not fear, you worm, Jacob,
    you maggot, Israel.
I will help you, says the Lord;
    your redeemer[a] is the Holy One of Israel.
15 Now I will make of you a threshing sledge,
    sharp, new, with numerous teeth.
You will thresh the mountains and crush them,
    and you will reduce the hills to chaff.
16 You will winnow them,
    the wind will carry them away,
    and the gale will scatter them.
Then you will rejoice in the Lord
    and glory in the Holy One of Israel.
