The Servant of the Lord

42 “See! My servant, My chosen one! My much Loved, in Whom My soul is well pleased! I will put My Spirit on Him. He will say to the nations what is right from wrong. He will not cry out or speak with a loud voice. His voice will not be heard in the streets. He will not break a broken branch or put out a little fire. He will be faithful to make everything fair. He will not lose hope or be crushed, until He has made things right on the earth. And the islands will wait with hope in His Law.”

    In his teaching(M) the islands(N) will put their hope.”(O)
