Isaiah 49:1-3

The Servant of the Lord

1 Listen to me, aO coastlands,
and give attention, you peoples bfrom afar.
cThe Lord called me from the womb,
from the body of my mother he named my name.
2 dHe made my mouth like a sharp sword;
ein the shadow of his hand he hid me;
he made me a polished arrow;
in his quiver he hid me away.
3And he said to me, “You are my servant,
Israel, fin whom I will be glorified.”
Or  I will display my beauty

and before you were born iI consecrated you;

“Do not say, ‘I am only a youth’;
for to all to whom I send you, you shall go,
and mwhatever I command you, you shall speak.
