15 But Jesus knew what they were planning. So he left that area, and many people followed him. He healed all the sick among them, 16 but he warned them not to reveal who he was. 17 This fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah concerning him:
18
“Look at my Servant, whom I have chosen.
He is my Beloved, who pleases me.
I will put my Spirit upon him,
and he will proclaim justice to the nations.
19
He will not fight or shout
or raise his voice in public.
20
He will not crush the weakest reed
or put out a flickering candle.
Finally he will cause justice to be victorious.
21
And his name will be the hope
of all the world.” 1
