Matthew 12:15-21
========================
15Aware of this, Jesus
withdrew from that place. A large crowd followed him, and he healed all who
were ill.
16He warned them not to tell
others about him.
17This was to fulfill what was
spoken through the prophet Isaiah:
18“Here is my servant whom I
have chosen, the one I love, in whom I delight; I will put my Spirit on him,
and he will proclaim justice to the nations.
19He will not quarrel or cry
out; no one will hear his voice in the streets.
20A bruised reed he will not
break, and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out,
till he has brought justice
through to victory.
21In his name the nations
will put their hope.”
