⁸ He has shown you, O mortal, what is good.
    And what does the Lord require of you?
To act justly^(A) and to love mercy
    and to walk humbly^[a](B) with your God.^(C)

¹⁸ “Here is my servant whom I have chosen,
    the one I love, in whom I delight;^(A)
I will put my Spirit on him,^(B)
    and he will proclaim justice to the nations.

²⁰ A bruised reed he will not break,
    and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out,
till he has brought justice through to victory.
