'"Error: Cannot open load file: No such file or directory, use-package" when I byte compile

When I byte compiled my init.el, I got the following error message.

➤ emacs --batch -f batch-byte-compile init.el

In toplevel form: init.el:12:1: Error: Cannot open load file: No such file or directory, use-package

and this is my init.el.

(require 'package)

(add-to-list 'package-archives
             '("melpa" . "https://melpa.org/packages/") t)
(setq package-user-dir (expand-file-name "elpa" user-emacs-directory))
(package-initialize)
(unless package-archive-contents
  (package-refresh-contents))

(unless (package-installed-p 'use-package)
  (package-install 'use-package))

(require 'use-package)

Why did I get the error? How can I fix is?
