Isaiah 42:4-6

Holman Christian Standard Bible

⁴He will not grow weak or be discouraged
until He has established justice on earth.
The islands will wait for His instruction.”^(A)

⁵This is what God, Yahweh, says—
who created the heavens and stretched them out,^(B)
who spread out the earth and what comes from it,^(C)
who gives breath to the people on it
and life^[a] to those who walk on it^(D)—
⁶“I, Yahweh, have called You
for a righteous purpose,^[b]^(E)
and I will hold You by Your hand.^(F)
I will keep You and appoint You
to be a covenant for the people^(G)
and a light to the nations,^(H)
