3He saidH559 to Me, “1You are My ServantH5650, IsraelH3478, 2In whomH834 I will showH6286 My gloryH6286.”4But I saidH559, “I have 3laboredH3021 in vainH7385, I have spentH3615 My strengthH3581 for nothingH8414 and futilityH1892; NeverthelessH403, the justiceH4941 due to Me is with the LordH3068, And My 4rewardH6468 is with My GodH430.”
5And nowH6258 saysH559 5the LordH3068, who formedH3335 Me from the wombH990 to be His ServantH5650, To bringH7725 JacobH3290 backH7725 to Him, so that 6IsraelH3478 might be gatheredH622 to Him (For I am 7honoredH3513 in the sightH5869 of the LordH3068, And My GodH430 is My 8strengthH5797),6He saysH559, “It isH7043 tooH4480 9smallH7043 a thingH7043 that You should be My ServantH5650 To raiseH6965 upH6965 the tribesH7626 of JacobH3290 and to restoreH7725 the 10protectedH5336 ones of IsraelH3478; I will also makeH5414 You a 11lightH216 12of the nationsH1471 So that My salvationH3444 may 13reachH1961 to the 14endH7097 of the earthH776.”
