New International Version
4 he will not falter or be discouraged
till he establishes justice(A) on earth.
In his teaching(B) the islands(C) will put their hope.”(D)
5 This is what God the Lord says—
the Creator of the heavens,(E) who stretches them out,
who spreads out the earth(F) with all that springs from it,(G)
who gives breath(H) to its people,
and life to those who walk on it:
6 “I, the Lord, have called(I) you in righteousness;(J)
I will take hold of your hand.(K)
I will keep(L) you and will make you
to be a covenant(M) for the people
and a light(N) for the Gentiles,(O)
