Matthew 12:17-20

17This was to fulfill what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet:18“1Behold, My 2Servant whom I 3have chosen; 4My Beloved in whom My soul 5is well-pleased; 6I will put My Spirit upon Him, 7And He shall proclaim 8justice to the 9Gentiles.1910He will not quarrel, nor cry out; Nor will anyone hear His voice in the streets.2011A battered reed He will not break off, And a smoldering wick He will not put out, Until He 12leads 13justice to victory.
