Reading 1 Isaiah 42:1-7

my chosen one with whom I am pleased,
Upon whom I have put my Spirit;

Not crying out, not shouting,

and a smoldering wick he shall not quench,
Until he establishes justice on the earth;

and the Jews had recourse to him often
because he was the most respected of them all.
