49Listen to Me, O islands, And pay attention, you peoples from afar. The LORD called Me from the womb; From the body of My mother He named Me.H8085H339H7181H3816H7350H3068H7121H990H4578H517H2142H8034 2And He has made My mouth like a sharp sword; In the shadow of His hand He has concealed Me, And He has also made Me a select arrow; He has hidden Me in His quiver.H7760H6310H2299H2719H6738H3027H2244H7760H1305H2671H827H5641 3And He said to Me, "You are My Servant, Israel, In Whom I will show My glory."H559H5650H3478H6286 4But I said, "I have toiled in vain, I have spent My strength for nothing and vanity; Yet surely the justice [due] to Me is with the LORD, And My reward with My God."H559H3021H7385H3615H3581H8414H1892H403H4941H3068H6468H430 5And now says the LORD, who formed Me from the womb to be His Servant, To bring Jacob back to Him, in order that Israel might be gathered to Him (For I am honored in the sight of the LORD, And My God is My strength),H559H3068H3335H990H5650H7725H3290H7725H3478H622H3513H5869H3068H430H5797 6He says, "It is too small a 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 of the nations So that My salvation may reach to the end of the earth."H559H7043H5650H6965H7626H3290H7725H5341H5336H3478H5414H216H1471H3444H7097H776 7Thus says the LORD, the Redeemer of Israel, [and] its Holy One, To the despised One, To the One abhorred by the nation, To the Servant of rulers, "Kings shall see and arise, Princes shall also bow down; Because of the LORD who is faithful, the Holy One of Israel who has chosen You."H559H3068H1350H3478H6918H5315H960H1471H8581H5650H4910H4428H7200H6965H8269H7812H3068H539H6918H3478H977 8Thus says the LORD, "In a favorable time I have answered You, And in a day of salvation I have helped You; And I will keep You and give You for a covenant of the people, To restore the land, to make [them] inherit the desolate heritages;H559H3068H7522H6256H6030H3117H3444H5826H5341H5414H1285H5971H6965H776H5157H8074H5159 9Saying to those who are bound, 'Go forth,' To those who are in darkness, 'Show yourselves.' Along the roads they will feed, And their pasture will be on all bare heights.H559H631H3318H2822H1540H7462H1870H4830H8205 10"They will not hunger or thirst, Neither will the scorching heat or sun strike them down; For He who has compassion on them will lead them, And will guide them to springs of water.H7456H6770H8273H8121H5221H7355H5090H4002H4325H5095 11"And I will make all My mountains a road, And My highways will be raised up.H7760H2022H1870H4546H7311 12"Behold, these shall come from afar; And lo, these [will come] from the north and from the west, And these from the land of Sinim."H935H7350H6828H3220H776H5515 13Shout for joy, O heavens! And rejoice, O earth! Break forth into joyful shouting, O mountains! For the LORD has comforted His people, And will have compassion on His afflicted.H7442H8064H1523H776H6476H7440H2022H3068H5162H5971H7355H6041 14But Zion said, "The LORD has forsaken me, And the Lord has forgotten me."H6726H559H3068H5800H136H7911 15"Can a woman forget her nursing child, And have no compassion on the son of her womb? Even these may forget, but I will not forget you.H802H7911H5764H7355H1121H990H7911H7911 16"Behold, I have inscribed you on the palms [of My hands;] Your walls are continually before Me.H2710H3709H2346H8548 17"Your builders hurry; Your destroyers and devastators Will depart from you.H1121H4116H2040H2717H3318 18"Lift up your eyes and look around; All of them gather together, they come to you. As I live," declares the LORD, "You shall surely put on all of them as jewels, and bind them on as a bride.H5375H5869H5439H7200H6908H935H2416H5002H3068H3847H5716H7194H3618 19"For your waste and desolate places, and your destroyed land— Surely now you will be too cramped for the inhabitants, And those who swallowed you will be far away.H2723H8074H776H2035H3334H3427H1104H7368 20"The children of whom you were bereaved will yet say in your ears, ' The place is too cramped for me; Make room for me that I may live [here]. 'H1121H7923H559H241H4725H6862H5066H4725H3427 21"Then you will say in your heart, 'Who has begotten these for me, Since I have been bereaved of my children, And am barren, an exile and a wanderer? And who has reared these? Behold, I was left alone; From where did these come?'"H559H3824H3205H7921H1565H1540H5493H1431H7604H375 22Thus says the Lord GOD, "Behold, I will lift up My hand to the nations, And set up My standard to the peoples; And they will bring your sons in [their] bosom, And your daughters will be carried on [their] shoulders.H559H136H3069H5375H3027H1471H7311H5251H5971H935H1121H2684H1323H5375H3802 23"And kings will be your guardians, And their princesses your nurses. They will bow down to you with their faces to the earth, And lick the dust of your feet; And [you] will know that I am the LORD; Those who hopefully wait for Me will not be put to shame.H4428H539H8282H3243H7812H639H776H3897H6083H7272H3045H3068H954H6960 24"Can the prey be taken from the mighty man, Or the captives of a tyrant be rescued?"H4455H3947H1368H6662H7628H4422 25Surely, thus says the LORD, "Even the captives of the mighty man will be taken away, And the prey of the tyrant will be rescued; For I will contend with the one who contends with you, And I will save your sons.H559H3068H7628H1368H3947H4455H6184H4422H7378H3401H3467H1121 26"And I will feed your oppressors with their own flesh, And they will become drunk with their own blood as with sweet wine; And all flesh will know that I, the LORD, am your Savior, And your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob."H398H3238H1320H7937H1818H6071H1320H3045H3068H3467H1350H46H3290
