Dialogue with Trypho 135.2 · Sophia Scriptura

Greek text · Archambault 2:284–286

Ἰακὼβ ὁ παῖς μου, ἀντιλήψομαι αὐτοῦ· καὶ Ἰσραὴλ ὁ ἐκλεκτός μου, προσδέξεται αὐτὸν ἡ ψυχή μου. Δέδωκα τὸ πνεῦμά μου ἐπʼ αὐτόν, καὶ κρίσιν τοῖς ἔθνεσιν ἐξοίσει. Οὐ κεκράξεται, οὐδὲ ἀκουσθήσεται ἔξω ἡ φωνὴ αὐτοῦ· κάλαμον τεθραυσμένον οὐ συντρίψει καὶ λίνον τυφόμενον οὐ σβέσει, ἕως οὗ νῖκος ἐξοίσει, κρίσιν ἀναλήψει, καὶ οὐ θραυσθήσεται, ἕως ἂν θῇ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς κρίσιν· καὶ ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματι αὐτοῦ ἐλπιοῦσιν ἔθνη.

English · Claude translation

“‘Jacob my servant, I will uphold him; and Israel my chosen, my soul will receive him. I have given my Spirit upon him, and he shall bring forth judgment to the nations. He shall not cry out, nor shall his voice be heard outside; a bruised reed he shall not break, and smoking flax he shall not quench, until he brings forth victory; he shall take up judgment and shall not be crushed, until he sets judgment on the earth; and in his name shall the nations hope.’
