2. He will not cry, nor lift up his voice, nor cause it to be heard in the street.
3. A bruised reed will he not break, and a dimly burning wick will he not quench: he will bring forth justice in truth.
4. He will not fail nor be discouraged, till he have set justice in the earth; and the isles shall wait for his law.
5. Thus saith God Jehovah, he that created the heavens, and stretched them forth; he that spread abroad the earth and that which cometh out of it; he that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein:
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;
7. to open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the dungeon, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison-house.
8. I am Jehovah, that is my name; and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise unto graven images.
9. Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare; before they spring forth I tell you of them.
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.
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.
12. Let them give glory unto Jehovah, and declare his praise in the islands.
