Popular Bible Verses from Isaiah 42

I, YHWH, called you in righteousness, || And I lay hold on your hand, and keep you, || And I give you for a covenant of a people, || And a light of nations. To open the eyes of the blind, || To bring forth the bound one from prison, || Those sitting in darkness from the house of restraint.

I [am] YHWH, this [is] My Name, || And I do not give My glory to another, || Nor My praise to carved images.

Behold, My servant, I take hold on Him, || My Chosen One—My soul has accepted, I have put My Spirit on Him, || He brings forth judgment to nations.

A bruised reed He does not break, || And faded flax He does not quench, || He brings forth judgment to truth. He does not become weak nor bruised, || Until He sets judgment in the earth, || And islands wait with hope for His law.

And I have caused the blind to go, || In a way they have not known, || I cause them to tread in paths they have not known, || I make a dark place become light before them, || And unleveled places become a plain, || These [are] the things I have done to them, || And I have not forsaken them.

The former things, behold, have come, || And I am declaring new things, || Before they spring up I cause you to hear.
