Isaiah 50:4-9

Legacy Standard Bible

⁴ Lord Yahweh has given Me the tongue of ^(A)disciples,
That I may know how to ^(B)sustain the weary one with a word.
He awakens Me ^(C)morning by morning;
He awakens My ear to listen as a disciple.
⁵ Lord Yahweh has ^(D)opened My ear;
And I did ^(E)not rebel
Nor did I turn back.
⁶ I ^(F)gave My back to those who strike Me,
And My cheeks to those who pluck out the beard;
I did not hide My face from dishonor and spitting.
⁷ Even now Lord Yahweh ^(G)helps Me,
Therefore, I am ^(H)not dishonored;
Therefore, I have set My face like ^(I)flint,
And I know that I will not be ashamed.
⁸ He who ^[a](J)vindicates Me is near;
Who will contend with Me?
Let us ^(K)stand up to each other;
Who has a judgment against Me?
Let him approach Me.
⁹ Behold, ^(L)Lord Yahweh helps Me;
^(M)Who is he who condemns Me?
Behold, ^(N)they will all wear out like a garment;
The moth will eat them.
