Isaiah 49:3
Revised Standard Version
3 And he said to me, “You are my servant,
Israel, in whom I will be glorified.”
Isaiah 49:5-6
Revised Standard Version
5 And now the Lord says,
who formed me from the womb to be his servant,
to bring Jacob back to him,
and that Israel might be gathered to him,
for I am honored in the eyes of the Lord,
and my God has become my strength—
6 he says:
“It is too light a thing that you should be my servant
to raise up the tribes of Jacob
and to restore the preserved of Israel;
I will give you as a light to the nations,
that my salvation may reach to the end of the earth.”
