Isaiah 55:4-6
Amplified Bible

4 
“Listen carefully, I have appointed [a]him [David, representing the Messiah] to be a witness to the nations [regarding salvation],
A leader and commander to the peoples.
5 
“In fact, you [b][Israel] will call a nation that you do not know,
And a nation that does not know you will run to you,
Because of the Lord your God, even the Holy One of Israel;
For He has glorified you.”

6 
Seek the Lord while He may be found;
Call on Him [for salvation] while He is near.
