14 People of Israel, descendants of Jacob, you may be weak and worthless,[a]
    but do not be afraid.
    I myself will help you.”

This is what the Lord himself says.

“I am the Holy One of Israel,
    the one who saves you.
15 Look, I have made you like a new threshing board with many sharp teeth.
    You will trample mountains and crush them.
    You will make the hills[b] like chaff.
16 You will throw them into the air,
    and the wind will blow them away and scatter them.
Then you will be happy in the Lord.
    You will be proud of the Holy One of Israel.
