Matthew 12:16-21

16and 1warned them not to 2tell who He was. 17This was to fulfill what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet:18“3Behold, My 4Servant whom I 5have chosen; 6My Beloved in whom My soul 7is well-pleased; 8I will put My Spirit upon Him, 9And He shall proclaim 10justice to the 11Gentiles.1912He will not quarrel, nor cry out; Nor will anyone hear His voice in the streets.2013A battered reed He will not break off, And a smoldering wick He will not put out, Until He 14leads 15justice to victory.2116And in His name the 17Gentiles will hope.”
