Isaiah 49 :: Hebrew Names Version (HNV)

Salvation Reaches to the End of the Earth

Isa 49:1Listen, isles, to me; and listen, you peoples, from far: the LORD has called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother has he made mention of my name:

Isa 49:2

Isa 49:2and he has made my mouth like a sharp sword; in the shadow of his hand has he hid me: and he has made me a polished shaft; in his quiver has he kept me close:

Isa 49:3

Isa 49:3and he said to me, You are my servant; Yisra'el, in whom I will be glorified.

Isa 49:4

Isa 49:4But I said, I have labored in vain, I have spent my strength for nothing and vanity; yet surely the justice due to me is with the LORD, and my recompense with my God.

Isa 49:5

Isa 49:5Now says the LORD who formed me from the womb to be his servant, to bring Ya`akov again to him, and that Yisra'el be gathered to him (for I am honorable in the eyes of the LORD, and my God is become my strength);

Isa 49:6

Isa 49:6yes, he says, It is too light a thing that you should be my servant to raise up the tribes of Ya`akov, and to restore the preserved of Yisra'el: I will also give you for a light to the Goyim, that you may be my salvation to the end of the eretz.

Isa 49:7

Isa 49:7Thus says the LORD, the Redeemer of Yisra'el, and his Holy One, to him whom man despises, to him whom the nation abhors, to a servant of rulers: Kings shall see and arise; princes, and they shall worship; because of the LORD who is faithful, even the Holy One of Yisra'el, who has chosen you.

Isa 49:8

Isa 49:8Thus says the LORD, In an acceptable time have I answered you, and in a day of salvation have I helped you; and I will preserve you, and give you for a covenant of the people, to raise up the land, to make them inherit the desolate heritage:

Isa 49:9

Isa 49:9saying to those who are bound, Go forth; to those who are in darkness, Show yourselves. They shall feed in the ways, and on all bare heights shall be their pasture.

Isa 49:10

Isa 49:10They shall not hunger nor thirst; neither shall the heat nor sun strike them: for he who has mercy on them will lead them, even by springs of water will he guide them.

Isa 49:11

Isa 49:11I will make all my mountains a way, and my highways shall be exalted.

Isa 49:12

Isa 49:12Behold, these shall come from far; and, behold, these from the north and from the west; and these from the land of Sinim.

Isa 49:13

Isa 49:13Sing, heavens; and be joyful, eretz; and break forth into singing, mountains: for the LORD has comforted his people, and will have compassion on his afflicted.
