³ He said to me, “You are My Servant, Israel;^(A)
I will be glorified in him.”
⁴ But I myself said: I have labored in vain,
I have spent my strength for nothing and futility;
yet my vindication is with the Lord,
and my reward is with my God.
⁵ And now, says the Lord,
who formed me from the womb to be His Servant,
to bring Jacob back to Him
so that Israel might be gathered to Him;
for I am honored in the sight of the Lord,
and my God is my strength—
⁶ He says,
“It is not enough for you to be My Servant
raising up the tribes of Jacob
and restoring the protected ones of Israel.
I will also make you a light for the nations,^(B)
to be My salvation to the ends of the earth.”^(C)
7 This is what the Lord,
the Redeemer^(D) of Israel, his Holy One, says
to one who is despised,
to one abhorred by people,^[a](E)
to a servant of rulers:
“Kings will see and stand up,
and princes^[b] will bow down,
because of the Lord, who is faithful,
the Holy One of Israel^(F)—and He has chosen you.”^(G)

¹⁰ Who among you fears the Lord,
listening to the voice of His Servant?^(A)
Who among you walks in darkness,
and has no light?
Let him trust in the name of Yahweh;
let him lean on his God.
