V.1 Listen, 8085-3 O isles, 339 unto me; and hearken, 7181-54 ye people, 3816 from far; 7350 The LORD 3068 hath called 7121-1 me from the womb; 990 from the bowels 4578 of my mother 517 hath he made mention 2142-52 of my name. 8034

49:2 And he hath made 7760-4 my mouth 6310 like a sharp 2299 sword; 2719 in the shadow 6738 of his hand 3027 hath he hid 2244-52 me, and made 7760-4 me a polished 1305-7 shaft; 2671 in his quiver 827 hath he hid 5641-52 me;

49:3 And said 559-4 unto me, Thou [art] my servant, 5650 O Israel, 3478 in whom I will be glorified. 6286-101

49:4 Then I said, 559-1 I have laboured 3021-1 in vain, 7385 I have spent 3615-14 my strength 3581 for nought, 8414 and in vain: 1892 [yet] surely 403 my judgment 4941 [is] with the LORD, 3068 and my work 6468 with my God. 430

49:5 And now, saith 559-1 the LORD 3068 that formed 3335-6 me from the womb 990 [to be] his servant, 5650 to bring Jacob 3290 again 7725-32 to him, Though Israel 3478 be not gathered, 622-11 yet shall I be glorious 3513-11 in the eyes 5869 of the LORD, 3068 and my God 430 shall be my strength. 5797

49:6 And he said, 559-4 It is a light thing 7043-8 that thou shouldest be my servant 5650 to raise up 6965-53 the tribes 7626 of Jacob, 3290 and to restore 7725-53 the preserved 5341-7|5336-k of Israel: 3478 I will also give 5414-1 thee for a light 216 to the Gentiles, 1471 that thou mayest be my salvation 3444 unto the end 7097 of the earth. 776

49:7 Thus saith 559-1 the LORD, 3068 the Redeemer 1350-6 of Israel, 3478 [and] his Holy One, 6918 to him whom man 5315 despiseth, 960 to him whom the nation 1471 abhorreth, 8581-18 to a servant 5650 of rulers, 4910-6 Kings 4428 shall see 7200-4 and arise, 6965-1 princes 8269 also shall worship, 7812-101 because of the LORD 3068 that is faithful, 539-12 [and] the Holy One 6918 of Israel, 3478 and he shall choose 977-4 thee.

49:8 Thus saith 559-1 the LORD, 3068 In an acceptable 7522 time 6256 have I heard 6030-1 thee, and in a day 3117 of salvation 3444 have I helped 5826-1 thee: and I will preserve 5341-4 thee, and give 5414-4 thee for a covenant 1285 of the people, 5971 to establish 6965-53 the earth, 776 to cause to inherit 5157-53 the desolate 8074-6 heritages; 5159

49:9 That thou mayest say 559-2 to the prisoners, 631-7 Go forth; 3318-3 to them that [are] in darkness, 2822 Shew 1540- 10 yourselves. They shall feed 7462-4 in the ways, 1870 and their pastures 4830 [shall be] in all high places. 8205

49:10 They shall not hunger 7456-4 nor thirst; 6770-4 neither shall the heat 8273 nor sun 8121 smite 5221-55 them: for he that hath mercy 7355-18 on them shall lead 5090-17 them, even by the springs 4002 of water 4325 shall he guide 5095-17 them.

49:11 And I will make 7760-1 all my mountains 2022 a way, 1870 and my highways 4546 shall be exalted. 7311-4

49:12 Behold, these shall come 935-4 from far: 7350 and, lo, these from the north 6828 and from the west; 3220 and these from the land 776 of Sinim. 5515

49:13 Sing, 7442-3 O heavens; 8064 and be joyful, 1523-3 O earth; 776 and break forth 6476-3 into singing, 7440 O mountains: 2022 for the LORD 3068 hath comforted 5162-14 his people, 5971 and will have mercy 7355-17 upon his afflicted. 6041

49:14 But Zion 6726 said, 559-4 The LORD 3068 hath forsaken 5800-1 me, and my Lord 136 hath forgotten 7911-1 me.

49:15 Can a woman 802 forget 7911-4 her sucking child, 5764 that she should not have compassion 7355-15 on the son 1121 of her womb? 990 yea, they may forget, 7911-4 yet will I not forget 7911-4 thee.

49:16 Behold, I have graven 2710-1 thee upon the palms of [my] hands; 3709 thy walls 2346 [are] continually 8548 before me.

49:17 Thy children 1121 shall make haste; 4116-14 thy destroyers 2040-18 and they that made thee waste 2717-56 shall go forth 3318-4 of thee.

49:18 Lift up 5375-3 thine eyes 5869 round about, 5439 and behold: 7200-3 all these gather themselves together, 6908-8 [and] come 935-1 to thee. [As] I live, 2416 saith 5002-7 the LORD, 3068 thou shalt surely clothe 3847-4 thee with them all, as with an ornament, 5716 and bind 7194-17 them [on thee], as a bride 3618 [doeth].

49:19 For thy waste 2723 and thy desolate places, 8074-6 and the land 776 of thy destruction, 2035 shall even now be too narrow 3334-4 by reason of the inhabitants, 3427-6 and they that swallowed thee up 1104-18 shall be far away. 7368-1

49:20 The children 1121 which thou shalt have, after thou hast lost 7923 the other, shall say 559-4 again in thine ears, 241 The place 4725 [is] too strait 6862 for me: give place 5066-3 to me that I may dwell. 3427-4

49:21 Then shalt thou say 559-1 in thine heart, 3824 Who hath begotten 3205-1 me these, seeing I have lost my children, 7921-7 and am desolate, 1565 a captive, 1540-6 and removing to and fro? 5493-7 and who hath brought up 1431-14 these? Behold, I was left 7604-8 alone; these, where 375 [had] they [been]?

49:22 Thus saith 559-1 the Lord 136 GOD, 3069 Behold, I will lift up 5375-4 mine hand 3027 to the Gentiles, 1471 and set up 7311-55 my standard 5251 to the people: 5971 and they shall bring 935-52 thy sons 1121 in [their] arms, 2684 and thy daughters 1323 shall be carried 5375-11 upon [their] shoulders. 3802

49:23 And kings 4428 shall be thy nursing fathers, 539-6 and their queens 8282 thy nursing mothers: 3243-56 they shall bow down 7812-101 to thee with [their] face 639 toward the earth, 776 and lick up 3897-17 the dust 6083 of thy feet; 7272 and thou shalt know 3045-1 that I [am] the LORD: 3068 for they shall not be ashamed 954-4 that wait 6960-6 for me.

49:24 Shall the prey 4455 be taken 3947-93 from the mighty, 1368 or the lawful 6662 captive 7628 delivered? 4422-11

49:25 But thus saith 559-1 the LORD, 3068 Even the captives 7628 of the mighty 1368 shall be taken away, 3947-93 and the prey 4455 of the terrible 6184 shall be delivered: 4422-11 for I will contend 7378-4 with him that contendeth 3401 with thee, and I will save 3467-55 thy children. 1121
