Isaiah 42:3

King James Version

³A bruised reed shall he not break, and the smoking flax shall he not quench: he shall bring forth judgment unto truth.

Isaiah 42:3

New International Version

³A bruised reed^(A) he will not break,^(B)
and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out.^(C)
In faithfulness he will bring forth justice;^(D)

⁸In measure, when it shooteth forth, thou wilt debate with it: he stayeth his rough wind in the day of the east wind.

⁸By warfare^[a] and exile^(A) you contend with her—
with his fierce blast he drives her out,
as on a day the east wind^(B) blows.

Isaiah 27:8 See Septuagint; the meaning of the Hebrew for this word is uncertain.
