Isaiah 42:2-4
Revised Standard Version
2 He will not cry or lift up his voice,
or make it heard in the street;
3 a bruised reed he will not break,
and a dimly burning wick he will not quench;
he will faithfully bring forth justice.
4 He will not fail[a] or be discouraged[b]
till he has established justice in the earth;
and the coastlands wait for his law.
