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 or lift up his voice, | |||
or make it heard in the street; | |||
a bruised reed he will not break, | |||
and a dimly burning wick he will not quench; | |||
he will faithfully bring forth justice. | |||
He will not fail or be discouraged | |||
till he has established justice in the earth; | |||
And the coastlands wait for his law. | |||
Behold my servant, whom I uphold, | |||
my chosen, in whom my soul delights. | |||

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 or lift up his voice,
or make it heard in the street;
a bruised reed he will not break,
and a dimly burning wick he will not quench;
he will faithfully bring forth justice.
He will not fail or be discouraged
till he has established justice in the earth;
And the coastlands wait for his law.
Behold my servant, whom I uphold,
my chosen, in whom my soul delights.
