Isaiah 42:1-4
Bible Passage

Isaiah 42:1–4 (Listen)

The Lord’s Chosen Servant

42:1   Behold my servant, whom I uphold,
    my chosen, in whom my soul delights;
  I have put my Spirit upon him;
    he will bring forth justice to the nations.
  He will not cry aloud or lift up his voice,
    or make it heard in the street;
  a bruised reed he will not break,
    and a faintly burning wick he will not quench;
    he will faithfully bring forth justice.
  He will not grow faint or be discouraged1
    till he has established justice in the earth;
    and the coastlands wait for his law.
