Matthew 12:18-21
New English Translation

18 “Here is[a] my servant whom I have chosen,
the one I love, in whom I take great delight.[b]
I will put my Spirit on him, and he will proclaim justice to the nations.
19 He will not quarrel or cry out,
nor will anyone hear his voice in the streets.
20 He will not break a bruised reed or extinguish a smoldering wick,
until he brings justice to victory.
21 And in his name the Gentiles[c] will hope.”[d]
