⁵ And now the Lord says—
    he who formed me in the womb^(A) to be his servant
to bring Jacob back to him
    and gather Israel^(B) to himself,
for I am^[a] honored^(C) in the eyes of the Lord
    and my God has been my strength^(D)—

⁷ Because the Sovereign Lord^(A) helps^(B) me,
    I will not be disgraced.
Therefore have I set my face like flint,^(C)
    and I know I will not be put to shame.^(D)

⁹ It is the Sovereign Lord^(A) who helps^(B) me.
    Who will condemn^(C) me?
They will all wear out like a garment;
    the moths^(D) will eat them up.
