5  And now, saith cthe Lord othat formed me dfrom the womb to be his servant,

To bring Jacob again to him,

||Though Israel be not gathered,

Yet shall I pbe glorious in the eyes of the Lord,

And my God shall be my strength.

6  And he said, ||qIt is a light thing that thou shouldest be my servant

To raise up the tribes of Jacob,

And to restore the ||rpreserved of Israel:

sI will also give thee for a light to the Gentiles,

That thou mayest be tmy salvation unto the end of the earth.

7  uThus saith the Lord, the Redeemer of Israel, and his Holy One,

v||To him whom man despiseth, to him whom the nation abhorreth, to a servant of rulers,

wKings shall see and arise,

Princes also shall worship,

Because of xthe Lord that is faithful,

And the Holy One of Israel, and yhe shall choose thee.

8  Thus saith the Lord,

zIn an acceptable time have I heard thee,

And in a day of salvation have I helped thee:

And I will preserve thee, and agive thee for a covenant of the people,

To ||establish the earth, aato cause to inherit the desolate heritages;

9  That thou mayest say bcto the prisoners, Go forth;

bTo them that are in darkness, Shew yourselves.

They shall feed in the ways,

And their pastures shall be in all high places.
