Isaiah 42:1-4

International Standard Version

42 “Here is my servant, whom I support,
    my chosen one, in whom I delight.^[a]
I’ve placed my Spirit upon him;
    and^[b] he’ll deliver his^[c] justice throughout the world.^[d]
2 He won’t shout,
    or raise his voice,
        or make it heard in the street.
³ A crushed reed he will not break,
    and a fading candle^[e] he won’t snuff out.^[f]
        He’ll bring forth^[g] justice for the truth.
⁴ And^[h] he won’t grow faint or be crushed
    until he establishes justice on the mainland,
        and the coastlands take ownership of^[i] his Law.”
