Isaiah 49:5-7
New International Version
Isaiah 49:5-7
New International Version
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)—
6 he says:
“It is too small a thing for you to be my servant(E)
to restore the tribes of Jacob
and bring back those of Israel I have kept.(F)
I will also make you a light(G) for the Gentiles,(H)
that my salvation may reach to the ends of the earth.”(I)
7 This is what the Lord says—
the Redeemer and Holy One of Israel(J)—
to him who was despised(K) and abhorred by the nation,
to the servant of rulers:
“Kings(L) will see you and stand up,
princes will see and bow down,(M)
because of the Lord, who is faithful,(N)
the Holy One of Israel, who has chosen(O) you.”

English Standard Version
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 honored 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.”
