New Testament

Isaiah 42:1-8 Jubilee Bible (JUB)

1. Behold my slave, whom I uphold; my elect, in whom my soul delights; I have put my Spirit upon him; he shall give judgment unto the Gentiles.

2. He shall not cry, nor lift up, nor cause his voice to be heard in the streets.

3. He shall not break a bruised reed, nor shall he quench the smoking flax; he shall bring forth judgment unto truth.

4. He shall not tire nor faint until he has set judgment in the earth; and the isles shall wait for his law.

5. Thus saith God the Lord, the Creator of the heavens and he that stretches them out; he that spreads forth the earth and that which comes out of it; he that gives breath unto the people upon it and spirit to those that walk therein:

6. I the Lord have called thee in righteousness and will hold thee by thine hand; I will keep thee and place thee as my covenant unto the people as light unto the Gentiles

7. that thou might open the eyes of the blind, that thou might bring out the prisoners from the prison and those that sit in darkness out of the prison house.

8. I am the Lord. This is my name, and my glory I will not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.
