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 make Him known, 17 in order that what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet would be fulfilled, saying,

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