justice to the Gentiles. |

He will not cry, nor lift up his voice, nor
cause it to be heard in the street. |
| |

A bruised reed will he not break, and a dimly
burning wick will he not quench: he will bring forth justice in truth. |

He will not fail nor be discouraged, till he
have set justice in the earth; and the isles shall wait for his law. |

cometh out of it; he that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to
them that walk therein: |
| |
|
|
| Isaiah 42:6 |
|
I, Jehovah, have called thee in righteousness,
and will hold thy hand, and will keep thee, and give thee for a covenant of the
people, for a light of the Gentiles; |

to open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners
from the dungeon, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison-house. |
|

I am Jehovah, that is my name; and my glory
will I not give to another, neither my praise unto graven images. |
|

Behold, the former things are come to pass,
and new things do I declare; before they spring forth I tell you of them. |
|
|
|
| Isaiah 42:10 |

Sing unto Jehovah a new song, and his praise
from the end of the earth; ye that go down to the sea, and all that is therein,
the isles, and the inhabitants thereof. |
|
|
|
| Isaiah 42:11 |
|
Let the wilderness and the cities thereof lift
up their voice, the villages that Kedar doth inhabit; let the inhabitants of Sela
sing, let them shout from the top of the mountains. |
|
|
|
| Isaiah 42:12 |
|
Let them give glory unto Jehovah, and declare
his praise in the islands. |
|
|
|

Jehovah will go forth as a mighty man; he will
stir up his zeal like a man of war: he will cry, yea, he will shout aloud; he
will do mightily against his enemies. |
|
|
|
| Isaiah 42:14 |
|
I have long time holden my peace; I have been
still, and refrained myself: now will I cry out like a travailing woman; I will
gasp and pant together. |
|
|
|
| Isaiah 42:15 |
|
I will lay waste mountains and hills, and dry
up all their herbs; and I will make the rivers islands, and will dry up the pools.
|
|
|
|
| Isaiah 42:16 |
|
And I will bring the blind by a way that they
know not; in paths that they know not will I lead them; I will make darkness light
before them, and crooked places straight. These things will I do, and I will not
forsake them. |
|
|
|
| Isaiah 42:17 |
|
They shall be turned back, they shall be utterly
put to shame, that trust in graven images, that say unto molten images, Ye are
our gods. |
|
|
|
| Isaiah 42:18 |
|
Hear, ye deaf; and look, ye blind, that ye may
see. |
|
|
|
| Isaiah 42:19 |
|
Who is blind, but my servant? or deaf, as my
messenger that I send? who is blind as he that is at peace with me, and blind
as Jehovah's servant? |
| |
|
|
| Isaiah 42:20 |
|
Thou seest many things, but thou observest not;
his ears are open, but he heareth not. |
| |
|
|
| Isaiah 42:21 |
|
It pleased Jehovah, for his righteousness' sake,
to magnify the law, and make it honorable. |
|
|
|
|
| Isaiah 42:22 |
|
But this is a people robbed and plundered; they
are all of them snared in holes, and they are hid in prison-houses: they are for
a prey, and none delivereth; for a spoil, and none saith, Restore. |
|
|
|
|
| Isaiah 42:23 |
|
Who is there among you that will give ear to
this? that will hearken and hear for the time to come? |
|
|
|
|
| Isaiah 42:24 |
|
Who gave Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to the
robbers? did not Jehovah? he against whom we have sinned, and in whose ways they
would not walk, neither were they obedient unto his law. |
|
|
|
|
| Isaiah 42:25 |
|
Therefore he poured upon him the fierceness
of his anger, and the strength of battle; and it set him on fire round about,
yet he knew not; and it burned him, yet he laid it not to heart. |
