15 But Jesus, [a]aware of this, withdrew from there. Many followed Him, and (A)He healed them all, 16 and (B)warned them not to [b]tell who He was. 17 This happened so that what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet would be fulfilled:

18 (C)Behold, My [c]Servant whom I [d]have chosen;
(D)My Beloved in whom My soul [e]delights;
(E)I will put My Spirit upon Him,
(F)And He will proclaim [f]justice to the [g]Gentiles.
19 (G)He will not quarrel, nor cry out;
Nor will anyone hear His voice in the streets.
20 (H)A bent reed He will not break off,
And a dimly burning wick He will not extinguish,
Until He [h]leads [i]justice to victory.
21 (I)And in His name the [j]Gentiles will hope.”

(A)Jesus withdrew to the sea with His disciples; and (B)a large multitude from Galilee followed, and also from Judea, and from Jerusalem, and from (C)Idumea, and beyond the Jordan, and the vicinity of (D)Tyre and Sidon, a great number of people heard about everything that He was doing and came to Him. (E)And He told His disciples to see that a boat would be ready for Him because of the [a]masses, so that they would not crowd Him; 10 for He had (F)healed many, with the result that all those who had (G)diseases pushed in around Him in order to (H)touch Him. 11 And whenever the unclean spirits saw Him, they would fall down before Him and shout, “You are (I)the Son of God!” 12 And He (J)strongly warned them not to [b]reveal who He was.
