Isaiah 49:5-7

English Standard Version Anglicised

^5 (A)And now the Lord says,
    he ^(B)who formed me from the womb to be his servant,
to bring Jacob back to him;
    and that Israel might be gathered to him—
for ^(C)I am honoured in the eyes of the Lord,
    and my God has become my strength—
⁶ he says:
“It is too light a thing that you should be my servant
    to raise up the tribes of Jacob
    and to bring back the preserved of Israel;
^(D)I will make you ^(E)as a light for the nations,
    that ^(F)my salvation may reach to the end of the earth.”
⁷ Thus says the Lord,
    ^(G)the Redeemer of Israel and his Holy One,
^(H)to one deeply despised, abhorred by the nation,
    the servant of rulers:
^(I)“Kings shall see and arise;
    princes, and they shall prostrate themselves;
because of the Lord, who is faithful,
    the Holy One of Israel, who has chosen you.”
