--Isaiah-- Behold my servant, whom I uphold; mine elect, [in whom] my soul delighteth; I have put my spirit upon him: he shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles. (42:1) He shall not cry, nor lift up, nor cause his voice to be heard in the street. (42:2) A bruised reed shall he not break, and the smoking flax shall he not quench: he shall bring forth judgment unto truth. (42:3) He shall not fail nor be discouraged, till he have set judgment in the earth: and the isles shall wait for his law. (42:4) --Matthew-- That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, (12:17) Behold my servant, whom I have chosen; my beloved, in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my spirit upon him, and he shall show judgment to the Gentiles. (12:18) He shall not strive, nor cry; neither shall any man hear his voice in the streets. (12:19) A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench, till he send forth judgment unto victory. (12:20) And in his name shall the Gentiles trust. (12:21) |
