Isaiah 42:1

The Servant's Mission

1 "This is My Servant; I strengthen Him, [this is] My Chosen One; I delight in Him. I have put My Spirit on Him; He will bring justice[a] to the nations.

Isaiah 42:1 In-Context

1 "This is My Servant; I strengthen Him, [this is] My Chosen One; I delight in Him. I have put My Spirit on Him; He will bring justice to the nations.
2 He will not cry out or shout or make His voice heard in the streets.
3 He will not break a bruised reed, and He will not put out a smoldering wick; He will faithfully bring justice.
4 He will not grow weak or be discouraged until He has established justice on earth. The islands will wait for His instruction."
5 This is what God the Lord says- who created the heavens and stretched them out, who spread out the earth and what comes from it, who gives breath to the people on it and life to those who walk on it-
