Isaiah 49:2-4
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
2 He made my mouth like a sharp sword,
in the shadow of his hand he hid me;
he made me a polished arrow,
in his quiver he hid me away.
3 And he said to me, “You are my servant,
Israel, in whom I will be glorified.”
4 But I said, “I have labored in vain,
I have spent my strength for nothing and vanity;
yet surely my right is with the Lord,
and my recompense with my God.”
Isaiah 49:2-4
New International Version
2 He made my mouth(A) like a sharpened sword,(B)
in the shadow of his hand(C) he hid me;
he made me into a polished arrow(D)
and concealed me in his quiver.
3 He said to me, “You are my servant,(E)
Israel, in whom I will display my splendor.(F)”
4 But I said, “I have labored in vain;(G)
I have spent my strength for nothing at all.
Yet what is due me is in the Lord’s hand,(H)
and my reward(I) is with my God.”(J)
