Isaiah 49:1, 5

All of you people in faraway places, listen to me. Listen, all you nations far away. Before I was born, the Lord called me to serve him. The Lord named me while I was still in my mother’s body.

The Lord made me in the body of my mother so I would be his servant. He made me to lead the people of Jacob back to him. He made me so that Israel might be gathered to him. The Lord will honor me. I will get my strength from my God.
