    my chosen one^(B) in whom I delight;^(C)
I will put my Spirit^(D) on him,
    and he will bring justice^(E) to the nations.^(F)

³ A bruised reed^(A) he will not break,^(B)
    and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out.^(C)
In faithfulness he will bring forth justice;^(D)
4     he will not falter or be discouraged
till he establishes justice^(E) on earth.
    In his teaching^(F) the islands^(G) will put their hope.”^(H)
