Isaiah 49:1-3 ▼

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.”
