1 Behold my servant, whom I uphold; mine elect, in whom my soul delighteth; I have put my spirit upon him: he shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles.
1 “Here is my servant, whom I uphold, my chosen one in whom I delight; I will put my Spirit on him, and he will bring justice to the nations.
2 He shall not cry, nor lift up, nor cause his voice 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 shall he not break, and the smoking flax shall he not quench: he shall bring forth judgment unto 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 shall not fail nor be discouraged, till he have set judgment 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.”
