Matthew 12:20 in Context — Matthew 12
18 Eis aqui meu servo a quem escolhi, meu amado em quem minha alma se agrada; sobre ele porei o meu Espírito, e ele anunciará justiça às nações.
19 Ele não fará brigas, nem gritará; ninguém ouvirá pelas ruas a sua voz.
20 A cana rachada ele não quebrará, o pavio que fumega ele não apagará, até que conduza a justiça à vitória.
21 E em seu nome as nações terão esperança.
22 Então lhe trouxeram um endemoninhado cego e mudo; e ele o curou de tal maneira que o cego e mudo passou a falar e a ver.
