updv@Isaiah:42:1 @ Look, my slave, whom I uphold; my chosen, in whom my soul delights: I have put my Spirit on him; he will bring forth justice to the Gentiles.

updv@Isaiah:42:2 @ He will not cry, nor lift up his voice, nor cause it to be heard in the street.

updv@Isaiah:42:3 @ A bruised reed he will not break, and a dimly burning wick he will not quench: he will bring forth justice in truth.

updv@Isaiah:42:4 @ He will not fail nor be discouraged, until he has set justice in the earth; and the isles will wait for his instructions.

updv@Isaiah:42:5 @ Thus says God Yahweh, he who created the heavens, and stretched them forth; he who spread abroad the earth and that which comes out of it; he who gives breath to the people on it, and spirit to those who walk in it:

updv@Isaiah:42:6 @ I, Yahweh, have called you in righteousness, and will hold your hand, and will keep you, and give you for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles;

updv@Isaiah:42:7 @ to open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the dungeon, and those who sit in darkness out of the prison-house.

updv@Isaiah:42:8 @ I am Yahweh, that is my name; and my glory I will not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.

updv@Isaiah:42:9 @ Look, the former things have come to pass, and I declare new things; before they spring forth I tell you(note:){+}(:note) of them.

updv@Isaiah:42:10 @ Sing to Yahweh a new song, and his praise from the end of the earth; you(note:){+}(:note) who go down to the sea, and all that is in it, the isles, and its inhabitants.

updv@Isaiah:42:11 @ Let the wilderness and its cities lift up [their voice], the villages that Kedar inhabits; let the inhabitants of Sela sing, let them shout from the top of the mountains.

updv@Isaiah:42:12 @ Let them give glory to Yahweh, and declare his praise in the islands.

updv@Isaiah:42:13 @ Yahweh will go forth as a mighty man; he will stir up [his] zeal like a man of war: he will cry, yes, he will shout aloud; he will do mightily against his enemies.

updv@Isaiah:42:14 @ I have held my peace for a long time; I have been still, and refrained myself: [now] I will cry out like a travailing woman; I will gasp and pant together.

updv@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.

updv@Isaiah:42:16 @ And I will bring the blind by a way that they don't know; in paths that they don't know I will lead them; I will make darkness light before them, and crooked places straight. These things I will do, and I will not forsake them.

updv@Isaiah:42:17 @ They will be turned back, they will be completely put to shame, who trust in graven images, who say to molten images, You(note:){+}(:note) are our gods.

updv@Isaiah:42:18 @ Hear, you(note:){+}(:note) deaf; and look, you{+} blind, that you{+} may see.

updv@Isaiah:42:19 @ Who is blind, but my slave? Or deaf, as my messenger whom I send? Who is blind as he who is at peace [with me], and blind as Yahweh's slave?

updv@Isaiah:42:20 @ You have seen many things, but you don't retain; his ears are open, but he doesn't hear.

updv@Isaiah:42:21 @ It pleased Yahweh, for his righteousness' sake, to magnify the law, and make it honorable.

updv@Isaiah:42:22 @ But this is a people robbed and plundered; all of them are snared in holes, and they are hid in prison-houses: they are for a prey, and none delivers; for a spoil, and none says, Restore.

updv@Isaiah:42:23 @ Who is there among you(note:){+}(:note) who will give ear to this? Who will listen and hear for the time to come?

updv@Isaiah:42:24 @ Who gave Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to the robbers? Did not Yahweh? He against whom we have sinned, and in whose ways they would not walk, neither were they obedient to his law.

updv@Isaiah:42:25 @ Therefore he poured on him the fierceness of his anger, and the strength of battle; and it set him on fire round about, yet he didn't know; and it burned him, yet he didn't lay it to heart.
