Isaiah 49:1-3 ▼

1 Listen to Me, O coastlands, And pay attention, you peoples from afar. Yahweh called Me from the womb; From the body of My mother He made My name to be remembered.

2 He has set My mouth like a sharp sword; In the shadow of His hand He has concealed Me; And He has also set Me as a select arrow; He has hidden Me in His quiver.

3 He said to Me, “You are My Servant, Israel, In Whom I will show forth My beautiful glory.”
