Isaiah 51:13-15

Contemporary English Version

¹³ I spread out the heavens
and laid foundations
    for the earth.
But you have forgotten me,
    your Lord and Creator.
All day long you were afraid
of those who were angry
    and hoped to oppress you.
Where are they now?

¹⁴ Everyone crying out in pain
    will be quickly set free;
they will be rescued
from the power of death
    and never go hungry.
¹⁵ I will help them
    because I am your God,
the Lord All-Powerful,
    who makes the ocean roar.
