Isaiah 49:6-8
Modern English Version
6 He says,
“It is a light thing that you should be My servant
to raise up the tribes of Jacob
and to restore the preserved ones of Israel;
I will also make you a light to the nations
so that My salvation may reach to the ends of the earth.”
7 Thus says the Lord,
the Redeemer of Israel, and his Holy One,
to the despised one, to the one whom the nation abhors,
to the servant of rulers:
“Kings shall see and arise,
princes also shall worship,
because of the Lord who is faithful
and the Holy One of Israel who has chosen you.”

and I will preserve you, and give you
as a covenant of the people,
to restore the earth,
to make them inherit the desolate heritages,

the Holy One of Israel, who has chosen(K) you.”
