Isaiah 51:13-15

New Catholic Bible

¹³You have forgotten the Lord, your maker,
    who stretched out the heavens
    and laid the foundations of the earth.
You are in constant fear every moment of the day,
    dreading the fury of the oppressor
    who is bent on your destruction.
But where now is the oppressor’s fury?
¹⁴    The oppressed will soon be set free;
they will not die in the dungeon,
    nor will they be without food.
¹⁵For I am the Lord, your God
    who stirs up the sea and makes its waves roar;
    the Lord of hosts is my name.
