⁵ And now the Lord says –
    he who formed me in the womb to be his servant
to bring Jacob back to him
    and gather Israel to himself,
for I am^[a] honoured in the eyes of the Lord
    and my God has been my strength –
⁶ he says:
‘It is too small a thing for you to be my servant
    to restore the tribes of Jacob
    and bring back those of Israel I have kept.
I will also make you a light for the Gentiles,
    that my salvation may reach to the ends of the earth.’

‘In the time of my favour I will answer you,
    and in the day of salvation I will help you;
I will keep you and will make you
    to be a covenant for the people,
to restore the land
    and to reassign its desolate inheritances,

‘“I have made you^[a] a light for the Gentiles,
    that you^[b] may bring salvation to the ends of the earth.”^[c]’

‘“I have made you^[a] a light for the Gentiles,
    that you^[b] may bring salvation to the ends of the earth.”^[c]’
