Isaiah 49:4

Yahweh's Servant Brings Salvation

³ He said to me, “You are My Servant, Israel;
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—

Labored in Vain

To the Lord
