There is my servant whom I support,
my chosen whom I myself accept.
I’m putting my breath on him;
he will see that my exercise of authority gets out to the nations.
He won’t cry out and he won’t raise
or make his voice heard, in the streets.
A broken cane he won’t snap,
a flickering lamp he won’t snuff.
For the sake of truthfulness he’ll see the exercise of authority gets out,
he won’t flicker or break,
Until he sets the exercise of authority in the earth,
as foreign shores wait for his instruction.

The God Yahweh has said this,
the one who created the heavens and stretched them,
beating out the earth and its produce,
Giving air to the people on it,
breath to those who walk on it:
‘I am Yahweh, I called you in faithfulness,
took strong hold of your hand.
I formed you and gave you as a pact for the people,
a light for the nations,
In opening blind eyes,
in getting the captive out from the dungeon,
from the prison people who are living in the dark.
I am Yahweh, that is my name;
my splendour I do not give to another,
or my praise to images.
The previous events – here, they came about;
and I’m telling of new events
– before they grow, I let you hear.’

Lord God,
your feed us with the living bread from heaven.
You renew our faith
increase our hope
and strengthen our love.
Teach us to hunger for Christ
who is the true and living bread
and live by every word that comes from your mouth,
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
