Isaiah 42

NET

4 He will not grow dim or be crushed before establishing justice on the earth; the coastlands will wait in anticipation for his decrees.”


Darby

4 He shall not faint nor be in hasteD4956, till he have set justiceD4957 in the earth: and the isles shall wait for his law.


Darby Bible Notes

haste - Or 'be crushed,' in allusion to 'bruised' of the preceding verse; just as 'faint' is from the same root as 'smoking' or 'dimly burning [flax].' There is an evident correspondence between the words. justice - Or 'just judgment.'


KJV

4 He shall not fail nor be discouragedK4902, till he have set judgment in the earth: and the isles shall wait for his law.


KJV Bible Notes

discouraged: Heb. broken.
