Isaiah 49:3-6
New International Version
3 He said to me, “You are my servant,(A)
Israel, in whom I will display my splendor.(B)”
4 But I said, “I have labored in vain;(C)
I have spent my strength for nothing at all.
Yet what is due me is in the Lord’s hand,(D)
and my reward(E) is with my God.”(F)
5 And now the Lord says—
he who formed me in the womb(G) to be his servant
to bring Jacob back to him
and gather Israel(H) to himself,
for I am[a] honored(I) in the eyes of the Lord
and my God has been my strength(J)—
6 he says:
“It is too small a thing for you to be my servant(K)
to restore the tribes of Jacob
and bring back those of Israel I have kept.(L)
I will also make you a light(M) for the Gentiles,(N)
that my salvation may reach to the ends of the earth.”(O)
