Isaiah 49:4 Douay-Rheims

And I said: I have laboured in vain, I have spent my strength without cause and in vain: therefore my judgment is with the Lord, and my work with my God.

Ibn Ezra

1089–1167 Jewish

Then I said. Then I, the prophet, said. I said to myself, I have laboured in vain. I have troubled myself in vain to rebuke Israel; they do not hearken. My judgment is with God. He will reward me for my trouble. ופעלתי And my wages. Comp. שביר פעלת the wages of one that is hired (Lev. 19:13)
