Isaiah 42:4-6
Names of God Bible
4 He will not be discouraged or crushed
until he has set up justice on the earth.
The coastlands will wait for his teachings.
5 Yahweh El created the heavens and stretched them out.
He shaped the earth and all that comes from it.
He gave life to the people who are on it
and breath to those who walk on it.
This is what Yahweh El says:
6 I, Yahweh, have called you to do what is right.
I will take hold of your hand.
I will protect you.
I will appoint you as my promise[a] to the people,
as my light to the nations.
