Matthew 12:17-21

17 that that thing were fulfilled [that that thing should be fulfilled], that was said by Esaias, the prophet, saying,
18 Lo! my child, whom I have chosen, my darling, in whom it hath well pleased to my soul; I shall put my Spirit on him, and he shall tell doom to heathen men.
19 He shall not strive, nor cry, neither any man shall hear his voice in streets.
20 A bruised reed he shall not break, and he shall not quench smoking flax, till he cast out doom to victory;
21 and heathen men shall hope in his name.
