“Hear me, you who know righteousness, O people in whose heart is my law: Do not fear the reproach of men; be undaunted by their ridicule. For the moth shall consume them like a garment; moths shall devour them like wool. But my righteousness shall endure forever, my salvation through endless generations.” (Isaiah 51:7–8)
“Your faithfulness in time [of trial] shall prove to be a strength, your wisdom and knowledge your salvation; your fear of Jehovah shall be your riches.” (Isaiah 33:6)

“Do not call a conspiracy all that these people call a conspiracy; be not afraid or awed by the thing they fear. But sanctify Jehovah of Hosts, making him your fear, him your awe. And [to you] he will be a sanctuary, but to the two houses of Israel a stumbling block or obstructing rock, and a snare, catching unawares the inhabitants of Jerusalem. Many will stumble into them, and when they fall shall be broken, and when they become ensnared shall be taken captive.” (Isaiah 8:12–15)
“Be not fearful, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you; I will also succor you and uphold you with my righteous right hand. See, all who are enraged at you shall earn shame and disgrace; your adversaries shall come to nought, and perish. Should you look for those who contend with you, you shall not find them; whoever wars against you shall be reduced to nothing.” (Isaiah 41:10–12)
“I myself am your Comforter. Who are you that you fear mortal man, the children of men who shall be turned to grass? Have you forgotten Jehovah, your Maker—who suspends the heavens, who sets the earth in place—that you go all day in constant dread of the oppressor’s rage as he readies himself to wreak destruction? What is there to the wrath of the oppressor? Soon now shall he who is bowed down be set free; he shall not die [as those destined] for the Pit, neither shall he want for food.” (Isaiah 51:12–14)
“For I, Jehovah your God, hold you by the right hand and say to you, Have no fear; I will help you. Be not afraid, you worms of Jacob; O men of Israel, [be not dismayed]: I am your help, says Jehovah; your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel.” (Isaiah 41:13–14)
“Scale the mountain heights, O Zion, herald of good tidings. Raise your voice mightily, O Jerusalem, messenger of good news. Make yourself heard, be not afraid.” (Isaiah 40:9)
“In the God of my salvation I will trust without fear; for Jehovah was my strength and my song when he became my salvation. Then shall you rejoice in drawing water from the fountains of salvation.” (Isaiah 12:2–3)
