Isaiah 49:1-5

1ListenH8085, to me O islesH339; and hearkenH7181, ye peopleH3816, from farH7350; The LORDH3068 hath calledH7121 me from the wombH990; from the bodyH4578 of my motherH517 hath he made mentionH2142 of my nameH8034.

2And he hath madeH7760 my mouthH6310 like a sharpH2299 swordH2719; in the shadowH6738 of his handH3027 hath he hidH2244 me, and madeH7760 me a polishedH1305 shaftH2671; in his quiverH827 hath he hidH5641 me;

3And saidH559 to me, Thou art my servantH5650, O IsraelH3478, in whom I will be glorifiedH6286.

4Then I saidH559, I have labouredH3021 in vainH7385, I have spentH3615 my strengthH3581 for nothingH8414, and in vainH1892: yet surelyH403 my judgmentH4941 is with the LORDH3068, and my workH6468 with my GodH430.1

5And now, saithH559 the LORDH3068 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 the LORDH3068, and my GodH430 shall be my strengthH5797.2
