Isaiah 49:2 in Context — Isaiah 49

1 Ouvi-me, terras costeiras, e escutai, vós povos de longe; o SENHOR me chamou desde o ventre, desde as entranhas de minha mãe ele fez menção do meu nome;

2 E fez da minha boca como uma espada afiada, com a sombra de sua mão ele me cobriu; e me pôs como uma flecha polida, [e] me guardou em sua aljava.

3 E me disse: Tu és meu servo, Israel, por quem serei glorificado.

4 Porém eu disse: Inutilmente tenho trabalhado; por nada e em vão gastei minhas forças; todavia meu direito está perante o SENHOR, e minha recompensa perante meu Deus.
