Matthew 12:17-21

[17] This was to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah:

[18] “Behold, my servant whom I have chosen, my beloved with whom my soul is well pleased. I will put my Spirit upon him, and he will proclaim justice to the Gentiles.

[19] He will not quarrel or cry aloud, nor will anyone hear his voice in the streets;

[20] a bruised reed he will not break, and a smoldering wick he will not quench, until he brings justice to victory;

[21] and in his name the Gentiles will hope.” (ESV)
