Isaiah 42:1-9
1Behold, my servantH5650, whom I uphold; my chosen, in whom my soulH5315 delighteth: I have putH5414 my SpiritH7307 upon him; he will bringH3318 forthH3318 justiceH4941 to the Gentiles. 2He will not cryH6817, nor liftH5375 up his voiceH6963, nor cause it to be heardH8085 in the streetH2351. 3A bruised reedH7070 will he not breakH7665, and a dimly burning wickH6594 will he not quenchH3518: he will bringH3318 forthH3318 justiceH4941 in truthH571. 4He will not fail nor be discouraged, till he have setH7760 justiceH4941 in the earthH776; and the isles shall waitH3176 for his lawH8451.
5ThusH3541 saith GodH410 Jehovah, he that createdH1254 the heavensH8064, and stretchedH5186 them forth; he that spreadH5186 abroad the earthH776 and that which cometh out of it; he that giveth breathH7307 unto the peopleH5971 upon it, and spiritH7307 to them that walkH1980 therein: 6I, Jehovah, have calledH7121 thee in righteousnessH6664, and will holdH2388 thy handH3027, and will keepH5341 thee, and giveH5414 thee for a covenantH1285 of the peopleH5971, for a lightH216 of the Gentiles; 7to openH6491 the blindH5787 eyesH5869, to bringH3318 out the prisonersH616 from the dungeon, and them that sitH3427 in darknessH2822 out of the prison-house. 8I am Jehovah, that is my nameH8034; and my gloryH3519 will I not giveH5414 to another, neither my praiseH8416 unto graven images. 9Behold, the formerH7223 thingsH7223 are comeH935 to pass, and newH2319 thingsH7223 do I declareH5046; before they springH6779 forth I tellH5046 you of them.
