The Lord ^[a] God has given Me the tongue of ^(l)disciples, That I may know how to ^(m)sustain the weary one with a word. He awakens Me ⁽ⁿ⁾morning by morning, He awakens My ear to listen as a disciple.

The Lord God has ^(o)opened My ear; And I was ^(p)not disobedient Nor did I turn back.

I ^(q)gave My back to those who strike Me, And My cheeks to those who pluck out the beard; I did not cover My face from humiliation and spitting.

For the Lord God ^(r)helps Me, Therefore, I am ^(s)not disgraced; Therefore, I have set My face like ^(t)flint, And I know that I will not be ashamed.

He who ^(u)vindicates Me is near; Who will contend with Me? Let us ^(v)stand up to each other; Who has a case against Me? Let him draw near to Me.

Behold, ^(w)the Lord God helps Me; ^(x)Who is he who condemns Me? Behold, ^(y)they will all wear out like a garment; The moth will eat them.

Who is among you that fears the Lord , That obeys the voice of His ^(z)servant, That ^(aa)walks in darkness and has no light? Let him ^(ab)trust in the name of the Lord and rely on his God.

Behold, all you who ^(ac)kindle a fire, Who ^[b]encircle yourselves with firebrands, Walk in the light of your fire And among the brands you have set ablaze. This you will have from My hand: You will ^(ad)lie down in torment.
