Isaiah 43:1-3
KJV—Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I
have called thee by thy name; thou art mine.
When thou passest through the waters, I will
be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall
not overflow thee: when thou walkest through
the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall
the flame kindle upon thee. For I am the Lord
thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour.

AMP—Fear not, for I have redeemed you
[ransomed you by paying a price instead of
leaving you captives]; I have called you by your
name; you are Mine. When you pass through
the waters, I will be with you, and through the
rivers, they will not overwhelm you. When you
walk through the fire, you will not be burned
or scorched, nor will the flame kindle upon
you. For I am the Lord your God, the Holy
One of Israel, your Savior.

Moffatt—Fear not, for I redeem you, I claim
you, you are mine. I will be with you when you
pass through waters, no rivers shall overflow
you; when you pass through fire, you shall not
be scorched, no flames shall burn you. For I
the Eternal am your God, Israel’s Majestic One
is your deliverer.

NIV—Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I
have summoned you by name; you are mine.
When you pass through the waters, I will be
with you; and when you pass through the

you walk through the fire, you will not be
burned; the flames will not set you ablaze.
For I am the Lord, your God, the Holy One of
Israel, your Savior.

Isaiah 54 :14-15
KJV—In righteousness shalt thou be established:

not come near thee. Behold, they shall surely
gather together, but not by me: whosoever
shall gather together against thee shall fall for
thy sake.

(rightness, in conformity with God’s
will and order): you shall be far from even

together and stir up strife, but it is not from
Me. Whoever stirs up strife against you shall
fall and surrender to you.

NIV—In righteousness you will be established:
Tyranny will be far from you; you will have
nothing to fear. Terror will be far removed; it
will not come near you. If anyone does attack
you, it will not be my doing; whoever attacks
you will surrender to you.

NAS—In righteousness you will be established;
you will be far from oppression, for you will
not fear; and from terror, for it will not come
near you. If anyone fiercely assails you it will
not be from Me. Whoever assails you will fall
because of you.

Ephesians 6:10-18
KJV—Be strong in the Lord, and in the power
of his might. Put on the whole armour of God,
that ye may be able to stand against the wiles
of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh
and blood, but against principalities, against
powers, against the rulers of the darkness
of this world, against spiritual wickedness
in high places. Wherefore take unto you the
whole armour of God, that ye may be able
to withstand in the evil day, and having done
all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your
loins girt about with truth, and having on the
breastplate of righteousness; and your feet
shod with the preparation of the gospel of
peace; above all, taking the shield of faith,
wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the
fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet
of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which
is the word of God: Praying always with all
prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and
watching thereunto with all perseverance and
supplication for all saints.

AMP—Be strong in the Lord [be empowered
through your union with Him]; draw your
strength from Him [that strength which His
boundless might provides]. Put on God’s
whole armor [the armor of a heavy-armed
soldier which God supplies], that you may be
able successfully to stand up against [all] the
strategies and the deceits of the devil. For
we are not wrestling with flesh and blood
[contending only with physical opponents],
but against the despotisms, against the
powers, against [the master spirits who are]
the world rulers of this present darkness,
against the spirit forces of wickedness in the
heavenly (supernatural) sphere. Therefore
put on God’s complete armor, that you may
be able to resist and stand your ground on
the evil day [of danger], and, having done all
[the crisis demands], to stand [firmly in your
place]. Stand therefore [hold your ground],
having tightened the belt of truth around
your loins and having put on the breastplate
of integrity and of moral rectitude and right
standing with God, and having shod your
feet in preparation [to face the enemy with
the firm-footed stability, the promptness, and
the readiness produced by the good news]
of the Gospel of peace. Lift up over all the
[covering] shield of saving faith, upon which
you can quench all the flaming missiles of the
wicked [one]. And take the helmet of salvation
and the sword that the Spirit wields, which is
the Word of God. Pray at all times (on every
occasion, in every season) in the Spirit, with all
[manner of] prayer and entreaty. To that end
keep alert and watch with strong purpose and
perseverance, interceding in behalf of all the
saints (God’s consecrated people).
