The Servant of the Lord
1 “Behold! aMy1 Servant whom I uphold,
My Elect One in whom My soul bdelights!
cI have put My Spirit upon Him;
He will bring forth justice to the Gentiles.
My Elect One in whom My soul bdelights!
cI have put My Spirit upon Him;
He will bring forth justice to the Gentiles.
3 A bruised reed He will not break,
And1 smoking flax He will not quench;
He will bring forth justice for truth.
And1 smoking flax He will not quench;
He will bring forth justice for truth.
4 He will not fail nor be discouraged,
Till He has established justice in the earth;
aAnd the coastlands shall wait for His law.”
Till He has established justice in the earth;
aAnd the coastlands shall wait for His law.”
5 Thus says God the Lord,
aWho created the heavens and stretched them out,
Who spread forth the earth and that which comes from it,
bWho gives breath to the people on it,
And spirit to those who walk on it:
aWho created the heavens and stretched them out,
Who spread forth the earth and that which comes from it,
bWho gives breath to the people on it,
And spirit to those who walk on it:
