Isaiah 50:3-5

Evangelical Heritage Version

³ I can clothe the heavens with blackness,
and I can cover them with sackcloth.

⁴ The Lord God gave me a tongue like the learned, an instructed tongue,
so I know how to sustain the weary with a word.
He wakes me up morning by morning.
He wakes up my ears so that I listen like the learned.
⁵ The Lord God opened my ear,
and I myself was not rebellious.
I did not turn back.
