15 Jesus knew what the Pharisees were planning. So he left that place, and many people followed him. He healed all who were sick,
16 but he warned them not to tell others who he was.
17 This was to give full meaning to what Isaiah the prophet said when he spoke for God:
18 “Here is my servant, the one I have chosen. He is the one I love, and I am very pleased with him. I will fill him with my Spirit, and he will bring justice to the nations.
19 He will not argue or shout; no one will hear his voice in the streets.
20 He will not break off even a bent stem of grass. He will not put out even the weakest flame. He will not give up until he has made justice victorious.
21 All people will hope in him.” Isaiah 42:1-4
