Isaiah 42:4–9

4  He shall not fail nor be †discouraged,

Till he have set judgment in the earth:

gAnd the isles shall wait for his law.

5  Thus saith God the Lord,

He that created the heavens, and histretched them out;

hkHe that spread forth the earth, and lthat which cometh out of it;

imHe that giveth breath unto the people upon it,

And nspirit to them that walk therein:

6  I the Lord have called thee in righteousness,

And owill hold thine hand, and will keep thee,

And pgive thee for a covenant of the people, qfor a light of the Gentiles;

7  rTo open the blind eyes,

To sbring out the prisoners from the prison,

And tthem that sit in darkness out of the prison house.

8  I am the Lord: that is my name:

uAnd my glory will I not give to vanother,

Neither my praise to graven images.

9  Behold, wthe former things are come to pass,

And xnew things do I declare:

Before they spring forth I tell you of them.
