5And now, saithH559 YhwhH3068 that formedH3335 me from the wombH990 to be his servantH5650, to bringH7725 JacobH3290 againH7725 to him, Though IsraelH3478 be not gatheredH622, yet shall I be gloriousH3513 in the eyesH5869 of YhwhH3068, and my GodH430 shall be my strengthH5797.1 6And he saidH559, It is a light thingH7043 that thou shouldest be my servantH5650 to raise upH6965 the tribesH7626 of JacobH3290, and to restoreH7725 the preservedH5336H5341 of IsraelH3478: I will also giveH5414 thee for a lightH216 to the GentilesH1471, that thou mayest be my salvationH3444 unto the endH7097 of the earthH776.23 7Thus saithH559 YhwhH3068, the RedeemerH1350 of IsraelH3478, and his Holy OneH6918, to him whom manH5315 despisethH960, to him whom the nationH1471 abhorrethH8581, to a servantH5650 of rulersH4910, KingsH4428 shall seeH7200 and ariseH6965, princesH8269 also shall worshipH7812, because of YhwhH3068 that is faithfulH539, and the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478, and he shall chooseH977 thee.4
