2 He will not cry, nor lift up his voice, nor cause it to be heard in the street.
2 He will not shout or cry out, or raise his voice in the streets.
3 A bruised reed will he not break, and a dimly burning wick will he not quench: he will bring forth justice in truth.
3 A bruised reed he will not break, and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out. In faithfulness he will bring forth justice;
4 He will not fail nor be discouraged, till he have set justice in the earth; and the isles shall wait for his law.
4 he will not falter or be discouraged till he establishes justice on earth. In his teaching the islands will put their hope.”
