⁸ My soul stays close to you. Your right hand holds me up.

¹⁰ Don't you be afraid, for I am with you; don't be dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you; yes, I will help you; yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness.

¹ Behold, my servant, whom I uphold; my chosen, in whom my soul delights: I have put my Spirit on him; he will bring forth justice to the Gentiles.

¹⁵ Break the arm of the wicked. As for the evil man, seek out his wickedness until you find none.

¹⁵ From the wicked, their light is withheld, The high arm is broken.

²⁴ Though he stumble, he shall not fall, For Yahweh holds him up with his hand.

¹¹⁶ Uphold me according to your word, that I may live. Let me not be ashamed of my hope.

¹¹⁷ Hold me up, and I will be safe, And will have respect for your statutes continually.

¹² As for me, you uphold me in my integrity, And set me in your presence forever.

¹² Restore to me the joy of your salvation. Uphold me with a willing spirit.

²¹ Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt; and, behold, it has not been bound up, to apply [healing] medicines, to put a bandage to bind it, that it be strong to hold the sword.

²² Therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh: Behold, I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and will break his arms, the strong [arm], and that which was broken; and I will cause the sword to fall out of his hand.

²³ I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.

²⁴ I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and put my sword in his hand: but I will break the arms of Pharaoh, and he shall groan before him with the groanings of a deadly wounded man.

²⁵ I will hold up the arms of the king of Babylon; and the arms of Pharaoh shall fall down; and they shall know that I am Yahweh, when I shall put my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall stretch it out on the land of Egypt.
