Isaiah 49:4
4 But I thought, ▼▼ Or “said” (KJV, NASB, NIV, NRSV); NLT “I replied.”
“I have worked in vain; I have expended my energy for absolutely nothing.” ▼
▼ Heb “for nothing and emptiness.” Synonyms are combined to emphasize the common idea.
But the Lord will vindicate me;
my God will reward me. ▼
▼ Heb “But my justice is with the Lord, and my reward [or “wage”] with my God.”
