³ He told me, “Israel, you are my servant.
    I will show my glory through you.”
⁴ But I said, “I have worked hard for nothing;
    I have used all my power, but I did nothing useful.
But the Lord will decide what my work is worth;
    God will decide my reward.”
⁵ The Lord made me in the body of my mother
    to be his servant,
to lead the people of Jacob back to him
    so that Israel might be gathered to him.
The Lord will honor me,
    and I will get my strength from my God.
