Matthew 12:17-21
New Catholic Bible
17 This was to fulfill what had been spoken through the prophet Isaiah:
18 “Behold, my servant, whom I have chosen,
my beloved in whom I delight.
I will place my spirit upon him,
and he will proclaim justice to the Gentiles.
19 He will not cry out or shout,
nor will anyone hear his voice in the streets.
20 A bruised reed he will not break,
nor will he snuff out a smoldering wick,
until he establishes justice as victorious;
21 and in his name the Gentiles will place their hope.”
Matthew 12:17-21
New International Version
17 This was to fulfill(A) what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah:
18 “Here is my servant whom I have chosen,
the one I love, in whom I delight;(B)
I will put my Spirit on him,(C)
and he will proclaim justice to the nations.
19 He will not quarrel or cry out;
no one will hear his voice in the streets.
20 A bruised reed he will not break,
and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out,
till he has brought justice through to victory.
21 In his name the nations will put their hope.”[a](D)
