lesserot@Isaiah:42:1 @ Behold my servant, whom I will uphold; my elect, in whom my soul delighteth: I have put my spirit upon him, that he may bring forth justice to the nations.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:2 @ He shall not cry, nor call out aloud, nor cause his voice to be heard in the street.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:3 @ A cracked reed will he not break, and a dimly burning wick will he not quench: unto truth shall he bring forth justice.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:4 @ He shall not become fatigued and not be faint, till he have established justice on earth; and the isles shall wait for his law.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:5 @ Thus hath said God the Lord, he that created the heavens, and stretched them out; he that spread forth the earth, and the things which come out of it; he that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to those that walk thereon:

lesserot@Isaiah:42:6 @ I the Lord have called thee in righteousness, and will lay hold on thy hand, and will keep thee, and appoint thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the nations;

lesserot@Isaiah:42:7 @ To open blind eyes, to bring out from the dungeon the prisoner, and out of the prisonhouse those that dwell in darkness.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:8 @ I am the Everlasting One, that is my name; and my glory will I not give to any other, nor my praise to graven images.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:9 @ The former things, behold, are come to pass; and new things do I announce; before they spring forth I let you hear of them.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:10 @ Sing unto the Lord a new song, his praise from the end of the earth; ye that go down to the sea, and all that filleth it; the isles, and their inhabitants.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:11 @ Let resound with song the wilderness and its cities, the villages which Kedar inhabiteth: let the inhabitants of the rocks sing, let them shout forth from the top of the mountains.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:12 @ Let them give glory unto the Lord, and in the islands declare his praise.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:13 @ The Lordas a mighty one will he go forth, like a man of war will he arouse his vengeance: he will shout, yea, raise the warcry; against his enemies will he show his strength.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:14 @ I have a long time held my peace; I have been still, and refrained myself: like a travailing woman will I cry; I will destroy and devour together.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:15 @ I will lay waste mountains and hills, and all their herbs will I dry up; and I will change the rivers into islands, and pools will I dry up.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:16 @ And I will cause the blind to walk on a way that they have not known; on paths that they have not known will I lead them: I will change darkness before them into light, and crooked places into plains. These are the things which I will do, and not leave them.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:17 @ They shall be turned back, they shall be ashamed, that trust in graven images, that say to molten idols, Ye are our gods.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:18 @ Ye deaf, hear; and ye blind, look up, that ye may see.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:19 @ Who is blind, but my servant? or deaf, as my messenger whom I send? who is blind as he that is perfect, and blind as the servant of the Lord?

lesserot@Isaiah:42:20 @ Thou seest many things, but observest not; the ears are open, but he heareth not.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:21 @ The Lord willed for the sake of his righteousness; he magnifieth the law, and maketh it honorable.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:22 @ But it is a people robbed and spoiled; they are all of them ensnared in holes, and in prisonhouses are they hidden: they are become for a prey, and none delivereth; for a spoil, and none saith, Restore.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:23 @ Who among you will give ear to this? will hearken and listen, for the time to come?

lesserot@Isaiah:42:24 @ Who gave up Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to plunderers? was it not the Lord? he it is against whom we have sinned; for they would not walk in his ways, neither did they hearken unto his law.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:25 @ Therefore hath he poured out over him the fury of his anger, and the strength of battle: and it blazed all round about him, yet he regarded it not; and it burnt on him, yet he laid it not to heart.
