Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
3 压伤的芦苇，祂不折断；
将残的灯火，祂不吹灭。
祂必信实地带来正义。
4 祂不灰心也不沮丧，
直到祂在地上设立正义。
四海都渴望祂的训诲。”
5 创造诸天、铺展穹苍、
设立大地和地上的一切、
赐给世人生命气息和灵性的耶和华上帝说：
Isaiah 42:3-5
New English Translation
3 A crushed reed he will not break,
a dim wick he will not extinguish;[a]
he will faithfully make just decrees.[b]
4 He will not grow dim or be crushed[c]
before establishing justice on the earth;
the coastlands[d] will wait in anticipation for his decrees.”[e]
5 This is what the true God,[f] the Lord, says—
the one who created the sky and stretched it out,
the one who fashioned the earth and everything that lives on it,[g]
the one who gives breath to the people on it,
and life to those who live on it:[h]
