Isaiah 45:4 Douay-Rheims

For the sake of my servant Jacob, and Israel my elect, I have even called thee by thy name: I have made a likeness of thee, and thou hast not known me.

Ibn Ezra

1089–1167 Jewish

For Jacob my servant’s sake, etc. All this success is not granted to thee for thine own sake, but for Israel, that thou shouldst send back the captives of Israel and rebuild Jerusalem. I have named thee. Comp. I have called thee by thy name, thou art mine (43:1)
