Isaiah 49:3-6
3He said to Me, “1You are My Servant, Israel, 2In whom I will show My glory.”4But I said, “I have 3labored in vain, I have spent My strength for nothing and futility; Nevertheless, the justice due to Me is with the Lord, And My 4reward is with My God.”
5And now says 5the Lord, who formed Me from the womb to be His Servant, To bring Jacob back to Him, so that 6Israel might be gathered to Him (For I am 7honored in the sight of the Lord, And My God is My 8strength),6He says, “It is too 9small a thing that You should be My Servant To raise up the tribes of Jacob and to restore the 10protected ones of Israel; I will also make You a 11light 12of the nations So that My salvation may 13reach to the 14end of the earth.”
