Isaiah 49:2-4
Young's Literal Translation
2 And he maketh my mouth as a sharp sword, In the shadow of His hand He hath hid me, And He maketh me for a clear arrow, In His quiver He hath hid me.
3 And He saith to me, `My servant Thou art, O Israel, In whom I beautify Myself.'
4 And I said, `For a vain thing I laboured, For emptiness and vanity my power I consumed, But my judgment [is] with Jehovah, And my wage with my God.

Isaiah 49:2-4
New International Version
2 He made my mouth(A) like a sharpened sword,(B)
in the shadow of his hand(C) he hid me;
he made me into a polished arrow(D)
and concealed me in his quiver.
3 He said to me, “You are my servant,(E)
Israel, in whom I will display my splendor.(F)”
4 But I said, “I have labored in vain;(G)
I have spent my strength for nothing at all.
Yet what is due me is in the Lord’s hand,(H)
and my reward(I) is with my God.”(J)
