Matthew 12:20 in Context — Matthew 12
18 He aquí mi siervo, al cual he escogido; mi Amado, en el cual se agrada mi alma: pondré mi Espíritu sobre él, y á los Gentiles anunciará juicio.
19 No contenderá, ni voceará: ni nadie oirá en las calles su voz.
20 La caña cascada no quebrará, y el pábilo que humea no apagará, hasta que saque á victoria el juicio.
21 Y en su nombre esperarán los Gentiles.
22 Entonces fué traído á él un endemoniado, ciego y mudo, y le sanó; de tal manera, que el ciego y mudo hablaba y veía.
