⁶ he says:
“It is too small a thing for you to be my servant^(A)
    to restore the tribes of Jacob
    and bring back those of Israel I have kept.^(B)
I will also make you a light^(C) for the Gentiles,^(D)
    that my salvation may reach to the ends of the earth.”^(E)

⁷ This is what the Lord says—
    the Redeemer and Holy One of Israel^(A)—
to him who was despised^(B) and abhorred by the nation,
    to the servant of rulers:
“Kings^(C) will see you and stand up,
    princes will see and bow down,^(D)
because of the Lord, who is faithful,^(E)
    the Holy One of Israel, who has chosen^(F) you.”

“See, I will beckon to the nations,
    I will lift up my banner^(B) to the peoples;
they will bring^(C) your sons in their arms
    and carry your daughters on their hips.^(D)

²³ Kings^(A) will be your foster fathers,
    and their queens your nursing mothers.^(B)
They will bow down^(C) before you with their faces to the ground;
    they will lick the dust^(D) at your feet.
Then you will know that I am the Lord;^(E)
    those who hope^(F) in me will not be disappointed.^(G)”
