Isaiah 49:6-8

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁶ He says, “It is too ^[a]small a thing that You should be My Servant
To raise up the tribes of Jacob and to restore the ^(A)preserved ones of Israel;
I will also make You a ^(B)light ^[b]of the nations
So that My salvation may ^[c]reach to the ^(C)end of the earth.”
⁷ Thus says the Lord, the ^(D)Redeemer of Israel and its Holy One,
To the ^(E)despised One,
To the One abhorred by the nation,
To the Servant of rulers,
“^(F)Kings will see and arise,
Princes will also ^(G)bow down,
Because of the Lord who is faithful, the Holy One of Israel who has chosen You.”

⁸ Thus says the Lord,
“In a ^(H)favorable time I have answered You,
And in a day of salvation I have helped You;
And I will ^(I)keep You and ^(J)give You for a covenant of the people,
To ^[d](K)restore the land, to make them inherit the desolate heritages;
