Yahweh’s Chosen Servant

42 (A)Behold, My (B)Servant, whom I [a]uphold;
My (C)chosen one in whom My (D)soul is well-pleased.
I have put My (E)Spirit upon Him;
He will bring forth (F)justice to the [b]nations.
He will not cry out or raise His voice,
Nor make His voice heard in the street.
A crushed reed He will not break
And a faintly burning wick He will not extinguish;
He will bring forth (G)justice in truth.
He will not be (H)faint or crushed
Until He has established justice in the earth;
And the (I)coastlands will wait expectantly for His [c]law.”

El siervo del Señor

42 »Este es mi siervo, a quien sostengo,
    mi escogido, en quien me deleito;
sobre él he puesto mi Espíritu,
    y llevará justicia a las naciones.
No clamará, ni gritará,
    ni alzará su voz por las calles.
No acabará de romper la caña quebrada,
    ni apagará la mecha que apenas arde.
Con fidelidad hará justicia;
    no vacilará ni se desanimará
hasta implantar la justicia en la tierra.
    Las costas lejanas esperan su ley».
