and He will not put out a smoldering wick;
He will faithfully bring justice.
He will not grow weak or be discouraged
until He has established justice on earth.
The islands will wait for His instruction.”(A)

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)
