14 So don’t be afraid, Jacob, though you are nothing but a worm.
    People of Israel, you little bug, you have nothing to fear.

Eternal One: I will help you. I am One who saves you,
        the Holy One of Israel.
15     I will turn you into a formidable threshing sledge
        with brand new sharp blades that will mow down entire mountains
        and turn the hills into chaff.
16     You will separate value from waste, and a great wind
        and a strong storm will take away what is useless and unimportant.
    You will take joy in the Eternal.
        You will glow with pride in the Holy One of Israel.

14 Do not be afraid,(A) you worm(B) Jacob,
    little Israel, do not fear,
for I myself will help(C) you,” declares the Lord,
    your Redeemer,(D) the Holy One(E) of Israel.
15 “See, I will make you into a threshing sledge,(F)
    new and sharp, with many teeth.
You will thresh the mountains(G) and crush them,
    and reduce the hills to chaff.(H)
16 You will winnow(I) them, the wind will pick them up,
    and a gale(J) will blow them away.(K)
But you will rejoice(L) in the Lord
    and glory(M) in the Holy One(N) of Israel.
