49:4
Then I°
said,°°
I have laboured°°
in vain,°
I have spent°°
my strength°
for nought,°

[yet] surely°
my judgment°
[is] with°
the LORD,°
and my work°
with°
my God.° |

saith°°
the LORD°
that formed°°
me from the womb°°
[to be] his servant,°

him, Though Israel°
be not gathered,°°
yet shall I be glorious°°
in the eyes°
of the LORD,°
and my God°
shall be°
my strength.° |
49:6
