Isaiah 49:2

Yahweh's Servant Brings Salvation

¹ Coastlands, listen to me;
distant peoples, pay attention.
The Lord called me before I was born.
He named me while I was in my mother’s womb.
² He made my words like a sharp sword;
He hid me in the shadow of His hand.
He made me like a sharpened arrow;
He hid me in His quiver.
³ He said to me, “You are My Servant, Israel;
I will be glorified in him.”
