6  he says:

“It is too light a thing that you should be my servant

to raise up the tribes of Jacob

and to bring back the preserved of Israel;

^tI will make you ^uas a light for the nations,

that ^vmy salvation may reach to the end of the earth.”

1  ^h“Sing, O barren one, who did not bear;

break forth into singing and cry aloud,

you who have not been in labor!

For the children of ⁱthe desolate one ^jwill be more

than the children of her who is married,” says the Lord.

2  ^k“Enlarge the place of your tent,

and let the curtains of your habitations be stretched out;

do not hold back; lengthen your cords

and strengthen your stakes.

3  ^lFor you will spread abroad to the right and to the left,

and your offspring will possess the nations

and will people the desolate cities.
