4But I saidH559, “I have 1toiledH3021 in vainH7385, I have spentH3615 My strengthH3581 for nothingH8414 and vanityH1892; Yet surelyH403 the justiceH4941 due to Me is with the LordH3068, And My 2rewardH6468 with My GodH430.”
5And nowH6258 saysH559 3the LordH3068, who formedH3335 Me from the wombH990 to be His ServantH5650, To bringH7725 JacobH3290 backH7725 to Him, so that 4IsraelH3478 might be gatheredH622 to Him (For I am 5honoredH3513 in the sightH5869 of the LordH3068, And My GodH430 is My 6strengthH5797),6He saysH559, “It is tooH4480 7smallH7043 a thingH7043 that You should be My ServantH5650 To raiseH6965 up the tribesH7626 of JacobH3290 and to restoreH7725 the 8preservedH5336 ones of IsraelH3478; I will also makeH5414 You a 9lightH216 10of the nationsH1471 So that My salvationH3444 may 11reachH1961 to the 12endH7097 of the earthH776.”7ThusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068, the 13RedeemerH1350 of IsraelH3478 and its HolyH6918 OneH6918, To the 14despisedH960 One, To the One abhorredH8581 by the nationH1471, To the ServantH5650 of rulersH4910, “15KingsH4428 will seeH7200 and ariseH6965, PrincesH8269 will also 16bowH7812 downH7812, BecauseH4616 of the LordH3068 whoH834 is faithfulH539, the HolyH6918 OneH6918 of IsraelH3478 who has chosenH977 You.”
