Isaiah 49:3-6

3 He said to Me, ^a“You are My Servant, Israel,
^bIn Whom I will ^{▼▼ Or glorify Myself}show My glory.”
4 But I said, “I have ^dtoiled in vain,
I have spent My strength for nothing and vanity;
Yet surely the justice due to Me is with the Lord,
And My ^ereward with My God.”

5 And now says ^fthe Lord, who formed Me from the womb to be His Servant,
To bring Jacob back to Him, so that ^gIsrael might be gathered to Him
(For I am ^hhonored in the sight of the Lord,
And My God is My ⁱstrength),
6 He says, “It is too ^{▼▼ Lit light}small a thing that You should be My Servant
To raise up the tribes of Jacob and to restore the ^kpreserved ones of Israel;
I will also make You a ^llight ^{▼▼ Or to}of the nations
So that My salvation may ^{▼▼ Lit be}reach to the ^oend of the earth.”
