Isaiah 48:20-49:4
King James Version
Isaiah 48:20-49:4
King James Version
20 Go ye forth of Babylon, flee ye from the Chaldeans, with a voice of singing declare ye, tell this, utter it even to the end of the earth; say ye, The Lord hath redeemed his servant Jacob.
21 And they thirsted not when he led them through the deserts: he caused the waters to flow out of the rock for them: he clave the rock also, and the waters gushed out.
22 There is no peace, saith the Lord, unto the wicked.
49 Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The Lord hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name.
2 And he hath made my mouth like a sharp sword; in the shadow of his hand hath he hid me, and made me a polished shaft; in his quiver hath he hid me;
3 And said unto me, Thou art my servant, O Israel, in whom I will be glorified.
4 Then I said, I have laboured in vain, I have spent my strength for nought, and in vain: yet surely my judgment is with the Lord, and my work with my God.

Isaiah 48:20-49:4
New International Version
20 Leave Babylon,
flee(A) from the Babylonians!
Announce this with shouts of joy(B)
and proclaim it.
Send it out to the ends of the earth;(C)
say, “The Lord has redeemed(D) his servant Jacob.”
21 They did not thirst(E) when he led them through the deserts;
he made water flow(F) for them from the rock;
he split the rock
and water gushed out.(G)
The Servant of the Lord
49 Listen(J) to me, you islands;(K)
hear this, you distant nations:
Before I was born(L) the Lord called(M) me;
from my mother’s womb he has spoken my name.(N)
2 He made my mouth(O) like a sharpened sword,(P)
in the shadow of his hand(Q) he hid me;
he made me into a polished arrow(R)
and concealed me in his quiver.
3 He said to me, “You are my servant,(S)
Israel, in whom I will display my splendor.(T)”
4 But I said, “I have labored in vain;(U)
I have spent my strength for nothing at all.
Yet what is due me is in the Lord’s hand,(V)
and my reward(W) is with my God.”(X)
