The Servant
Listen, O coastlands, to me; and take heed, you peoples, from afar
The Lord has called me from the womb
From the matrix of my mother He has made mention of me
And he has made my mouth like a sharp sword
In the shadow of His hand He has hidden me and made me a polished shaft;
In his quiver He has hidden me
(Isaiah 49:1-2)
El Siervo
Escuchen, oh costas, y presten atención, pueblos lejanos
El Señor me ha llamado desde el vientre
Desde el seno de mi madre ha hecho mención de mí
Y ha hecho mi boca como una espada afilada
En la sombra de su mano me ha escondido y me ha hecho una flecha pulida;
En su carcaj me ha escondido
(Isaías 49:1-2)
