Isaiah 49:3-6

3He said to Me, “1You are My Servant, Israel, 2In Whom I will 3show My glory.”4But I said, “I have 4toiled in vain, I have spent My strength for nothing and vanity; Yet surely the justice due to Me is with the Lord, And My 5reward with My God.”

5And now says 6the Lord, who formed Me from the womb to be His Servant, To bring Jacob back to Him, so that 7Israel might be gathered to Him (For I am 8honored in the sight of the Lord, And My God is My 9strength),6He says, “It is too 10small a thing that You should be My Servant To raise up the tribes of Jacob and to restore the 11preserved ones of Israel; I will also make You a 12light 13of the nations So that My salvation may 14reach to the 15end of the earth.”
