2He will make no cry, his voice will not be loud: his words will not come to men's ears in the streets.
3He will not let a crushed stem be quite broken, and he will not let a feebly burning light be put out: he will go on sending out the true word to the peoples.
4His light will not be put out, and he will not be crushed, till he has given the knowledge of the true God to the earth, and the sea-lands will be waiting for his teaching.
5God the Lord, even he who made the heavens, measuring them out on high; stretching out the earth, and giving its produce; he who gives breath to the people on it, and life to those who go about on it, says:
6I the Lord have made you the vessel of my purpose, I have taken you by the hand, and kept you safe, and I have given you to be an agreement to the people, and a light to the nations:
7To give eyes to the blind, to make free the prisoners from the prison, to let out those who are shut up in the dark.
8I am the Lord; that is my name: I will not give my glory to another, or my praise to pictured images.
