The Servant’s Mission

1
“This(A) is My Servant;(B) I strengthen Him,
this is My Chosen One;(C) I delight in Him.(D)
I have put My Spirit on Him;(E)
He will bring justice(a) to the nations.(F)
2
He will not cry out or shout
or make His voice heard in the streets.
3
He will not break a bruised reed,
and He will not put out a smoldering wick;
He will faithfully bring justice.
4
He will not grow weak or be discouraged
until He has established justice on earth.
The islands will wait for His instruction.”(G)
